A new driving circuit for the SPSS (Single-Pulse Soft-Switching) PFC converter is proposed. The switching device of a SPSS converter switches once In every half cycle of an AC commercial power source. Therefore, it can be solved many problems caused by the high frequency operation. The proposed SPSS converter achieves the soft-switching operation and the EMI noise can be reduced. The resonant capacitor voltage supplies to the resonant inductor even if the input AC voltage is the vicinity of zero cross voltage. Then, the power factor and input current waveform can be improved without delay time. A new driving circuit achieves the operation of SPSS converter by one switching drive circuit. The proposed converter can be satisfied the IEC standard sufficiently.

This paper describes the high efficiency inverter ballast circuit using very cheap microprocessor, which has been developed by the author. A variety of soft-switching techniques have been proposed to reduce the switching losses and EMI problems that occur with higher switching frequencies in switched inverter ballast. The inverter ballast circuit, which employs a temperature sensing circuits has been also proposed to improve starting performance of the fluorescent lamps. That is, the inverter ballast circuit, which employs a soft-starting circuit and soft-switching techniques to implement the power factor correction and to mitigate of power-loss and increase a life time of the fluorescent lamps, has become an attractive performance for ballasting the fluorescent lamps. In this paper, the operation and the control of the inverter ballast are described in detail and experimental results are presented. As the experimental results, when environment temperature is at -40℃, the inverter ballast circuit has low THD(4.8%) of the input current and large power factor(98%) of the lamp current. The proposed improved ballast circuit appears to be a good performance for ballasting fluorescent lamps.

The development of the European railway high speed network brings new problems related to the interoperability across the railways of different countries. The pantograph and the overhead wire form a dynamic coupled system and they affect each other through the contact force. Unfortunately, as the operational speed of a train increases, the vibration of the pantograph and the overhead wire also increases. This may lead to a zero contact force between the pantograph head and the overhead wire, which can results in the loss of contact, arching and abrasion. If the arching and spark happen between the pantograph and the overhead catenary system, the EMI(electro magnetic interface) and noises may occur. After an, the quality of current collection is deteriorated. This paper describes the dynamic response between the pantograph and catenary system by the numerical simulations and predicts the possibility of operating the high speed train in the conventional lines.

In this paper, Uninterruptible Power Supply(UPS) Inverter system using Carrier Frequency Modulated PWM (CFM-PWM) is proposed to reduced harmonics and electromagnetic noise. Power conversion of UPS system is executed by the ON-OFF operation of semiconductor switching devices. However, this switching operation causes the surge and EMI which deteriorate the reliability of the UPS system. This Problems improved by Random PWM switching method. The simulation results of the proposed system was compared with the system using conventional method using Matlab/Simulink. The results show that the output voltage and current harmonics of the proposed UPS system significantly decreased and spread into wide band area by the proposed Carrier Frequency Modulated PWM(CFM-PWM) method based on the Space Vector Modulation.

A heat-sink has been widely used to cool down the heat generated from an electronic device, but it can bring unwanted electromagnetic radiation which may cause EMI problems. We propose a systematic method to reduce the electromagnetic radiation by using the multiple grounding technique based on the grounding criteria and the theory of characteristic mode analysis. Our proposed method provides the insight to find the specific grounding positions which can be effectively reduced the radiation from the heat-sink. Numerical experiments are accomplished to validate this approach.

Electric train is currently used widely, and much development is expected. But, in case of electric train, as comparison with diesel rolling stock, many electrical problem such as harmonic, voltage sag, EMI, EMC usually occur. Accordingly, in order to popularize an electric train, first, a study on electrical problem at an electric train must be accomplished. In this paper, one of electrical problems, arc characteristics according to loss of contact between pantograph and catenary was analyzed.

In this study, we investigate the sources of system malfunctions by measuring and diagnosing various surges and noise signals from grounding systems for electrical and electronic systems and installations in order to ensure the reliability and stability of the system operations. We measured performance or structural problems detected in the grounding systems currently in operation and analyzed the measured data in order to eliminate noise currents and interferences causing the systems to malfunction and be damaged. Based on the analysis results, we proposed improving grounding systems and the wiring arrangements most appropriate for the grounding systems and carried out the installations as per the proposed engineering. We verified that the proposed engineering made the status of system operations improved by measuring the ground noise signals during the system operations and comparing them before and after improvements being carried out.

Non-isolated OSAKA Converter, which removes a three-phase transformer, is described in this paper. The converter switches once in every half cycle of an AC commercial power source. Therefore, it can solve many problems caused by the high frequency operation. The proposed converter achieves the soft-switching operation and the EMI noise can be reduced. In this circuit, the resonant capacitor, which is used for the soft-switching operation, is utilized for the improvement of an input current waveform. To achieve low cost and compact structure, non-isolated OSAKA converter removes a three-phase transformer of the OSAKA converter. By removing the three-phase transformer, three phase currents occur the interferences each other. To avoid the interference, a new switching method for non-isolated OSAKA converter is preposed. The converter can be constructed by the low-speed large power devices. The converter generates the low distorted input current waveforms with high power factor.

The electric railway cars are operated by high voltage supply through the catenary wire. Also, numerous electric equipments operated by electric signal are distributed in the electric railway cars. Such electric equipments are exposed to EMI/EMC problems, and there is the possibility that the magnetic field due to the catenary wire current takes effect on the electromagnetic field in the electric railway cars which move under the catenary wire. There is the possibility that the electromagnetic interference generates in view of the operation of many electric equipments in the electric railway cars. There is the possibility that the communication device faults generate, and that the hazards on the human beings generate. In this paper, we predict the magnetic field around the catenary wire, and obtain the exact magnetic field distribution by comparing the analytic results and the numerical results. Finally, we confirmed the possibility of the passive loop mitigation by comparing the analytic results and the numerical results through the passive loop mitigation technique.
