Position controls are very important in semiconductor manufacturing devices, machine tools, precision measuring instruments, etc. to measure the distance of movement of moving objects in minute units and the accuracy of measurement for the moving distance in these devices affect the performance of the whole devices. Therefore, in those precision instruments, a sensing device that can measure the distance of movement with high-precision resolution is required. Thus an optical encoder that has such advantages as easy digital interface, economical price, and a resolution similar to that of laser interferometers can be used. In this paper, a interferometer-type linear scale with easy digital interface and high-resolution has been set up and measured the distance of movement based on the diffraction principle. Interference signals produced in this optical setup of the linear scale have beers digitalized through fabricated photodetectors and designed signal processing circuits. A resolution of 0.5${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ is acquired from the experimental interferometer-type linear scale without for the movement of scales any additional dividing circuits. It is shown that from this experiment a high-resolution distance measurement device can be designed by a simple optical setup.

For the purpose of designing and applying optimum surge protection, one of the essential points is to take into account the energy coordination between cascaded surge protective devices(SPDs) and it is important to obtain an acceptable sharing of the energy stress between two cascaded SPDs. In this paper, in case of two voltage-limiting SPDs connected in parallel, the amount of splitting impulse current and energy that flow through each SPDs is investigated as a function of the protective distance. As a result, the energetic coordination between cascaded SPDs is strongly dependent on the voltage protection level of SPDs and the protective distance. It was confirmed that the sharing of the energy between two cascaded SPDs and the limited voltage levels are appropriate when the voltage protection levels of both upstream and downstream SPDs are the same.

This research describes the measurement of roll parallelism by a laser interferometer. Parallelism among rolls is an important factor for improving the precision of printing devices. A laser interferometer, which is a device for the precise measurement of distance, can be utilized to measure parallelisms between rolls. To measure distance between two rolls by using a laser interferometer, the laser must not be severed during measurement. To achieve this condition, a linear motion guide was installed to each roll being measured, and continuous measurement of distance between two rolls was implemented by the simultaneous control of two mirrors installed on the guides. The method to measure parallelism between two rolls presented in this research can be utilized to improve printing precision by enhancing parallelism between rolls in printing devices.

In this paper an expert system is developed to decide the resetting area of protective devices in power transmission systems. A configuration change in power transmission networks from a substation extension such as new line or bus addition need resetting of protective devices around the point of configuration changes. To find the resetting area in complex power system is very difficult, especially when the distance protective relays are considered to be reset. The proposed expert system, in this paper to find the resetting area has many rules based on the changes of fault currents and apparent factors from the power system alteration. It solves the problem to find relay resetting area using the network information in the database and the rule-base. The case study shows a result of the problem to find relay resetting area in KEPCO system when there is any configuration change.

Generally, in nuclear plants, distance relay (21R) has adapting to protect and to operate main protective of transmission lines and backup protective of main generator. Operation of 21R was required and based on exactly accurate calculation and criteria. But presently method of 21R setting has applied according to protection devices operation guide of KPX, excepting IEEE and ISA standards, which have a difference review directions, consider parameters and devices, also consideration factors were affected to relay operations by uncertain guides. therefore this paper proposed new protection relay setting method and unvague criteria from IEEE 741 and ANSI/ISA 67.04.01, and reviewed a different results through numerical calculation results for methods and criteria including previous and established 21r setting by IEEE, ANSI/ISA Technical standards.

In this paper, we investigate interference between short-range radiocommunication devices (SRDs) with frequency hopping spread spectrum (FHSS) and direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) methods when they are in the same frequency bands. In order to analyze interference from unwanted emission of SRD with DSSS to that of FHSS, Monte-Carlo (MC) simulation method is employed and interference probabilities are calculated. We simulate interference scenarios in accordance with several duty cycles and bandwidths. It is also assumed that the propagation model is free space The effect of distance between interfering transmitter and victim receiver is analyzed and bit error rate (BER) is simulated. From the interference analysis results, it is shown that duty cycle affects compatibility more than bandwidth does. Also, we can make sure of the separation distance which satisfies BER criterion when there are only one interfering transmitter and multiple interfering transmitters.

Previous research results indicated that the designed current reduction device could effectively reduce the sheath circulating current and that its RDP protection device could shield it against both fault and lightning strokes. In this paper, cable impedance is analyzed using wavelet analysis and distance relay algorithm following the installation of these devices so that the operation of distance relay can be estimated. The test results confirm that in these devices, the fault inception angle and SVL bonding types have no impact on the change of cable impedance. In other words, the conventional distance relay can be used without a new relay setting. Thus we can finally assert that the designed current reduction device and its protection device are effective and can be safely installed on the cable transmission system without disturbance.

Nowadays, Mobile devices are now capable of supporting a wide range of applications. Unfortunately, some of applications demand an ever increasing computational power and mobile devices have limited resources due to their constraints, such as low processing power, limited memory, unpredictable connectivity, and limited battery life. To deal with mobile devices' constraints, researchers envision extending cloud computing services to mobile devices using virtualization techniques to shift the workload from mobile devices to a powerful computational infrastructure. Those techniques consist of migrating resource-intensive computations from a mobile device to the resource-rich cloud, or server (called nearby infrastructure). In this paper, we want to highlight on cloudlet architecture (nearby infrastructure with mobile devices), its functioning and in our future work, analyze effects of distance between cloudlet and mobile devices.

Distance relay plays an important role in the protection of transmission lines. The application of flexible AC transmission systems (FACTS) devices, such as the static synchronous compensator (STATCOM), could affect the performance of the distance relay because of compensation effect. This paper analyzes the application of distance relay on the protection of a transmission line containing STATCOM. New setting principles for different protection zones are proposed based on this analysis. A typical 500 kV transmission system employing STATCOM is modeled using Matlab/Simulink. The impact of STATCOM on distance protection scheme is studied for different fault types, fault locations, and system configurations. Based on simulation results, the performance of distance relay is evaluated. The setting principle can be verified for the transmission line with STATCOM.
