In this paper, Integrated circuit(IC) electromagnetic(EM) conducted immunity measurement and simulation using bulk current injection(BCI) and direct power injection(DPI) methods were conducted for 1.8 V I/O buffers. Using the equivalent circuit models developed for IC electromagnetic conducted immunity tests, we investigated the reliability of the frequency region where IC electromagnetic conducted immunity test is performed. The insertion loss for the noise injection path obtained from the simulation indicates that using only one conducted immunity test method cannot provide reliable conducted immunity test for broadband noise. Based on the forward power results, we analyzed the actual amount of EM noise injected to IC. We propose a more reliable immunity test methods for broad band noise.

The rated voltage has been rising in order to minimize the losses in power transmission. The high voltage electric machines should be minimized due to the constraints of space. Therefore, the temperature of high voltage electric apparatuses easily exceeds the temperature limits. In this paper, it is investigated that how to minimize the internal temperature rising of a high voltage switchgear by adjusting the arrangement of bus bars. High voltage switchgears consist of a circuit breaker, a CT, a PT, a earthing switches, bus bars, and so on. It is very difficult to estimate the electromagnetic properties of a high voltage switchgear due to these various environments and structures. In this paper, analyses are focused on the electromagnetic characteristics of bus bars according to the arrangement method and the enclosures to simplify the electromagnetic characteristics of a switchgear. It is found that the characteristics of electric field intensity and electromagnetic losses in bus bars are influenced by the arrangement method of bus bars. However, it is confirmed that the electromagnetic characteristics of enclosures are not affected by the arrangement of bus bars. In this paper, the arrangement methods of bus bars to minimize the electric field intensity and electromagnetic losses are suggested. It is expected that the research results are helpful to design and develop an electrically reliable high voltage switchgear.

This paper describes atmospheric phenomena and effects for satellite-to-ground laser communication channel. Satellite laser communication has advantages such as very high bandwidth, inherent security, robustness to electromagnetic interference, unlicensed frequency band. However, satellite laser communication is affected by various factors. Transmission quality is degraded by factors as system loss, geometric loss, misalignment loss, atmospheric loss. Atmospheric loss is major factor of performance degradation. In this paper, the atmospheric phenomena such as absorption, scattering and turbulence are discussed and analyzed for developing satellite laser channel model and laser transmission scheme robust to atmospheric phenomena.

The current experiment has quantitatively investigated the effect of the content of CaO and SiO2 on the microstructure, density, electrical resistivity, power loss and initial permeability of manganese zinc ferrites. The density increased initially with CaO and SiO2 content and the further addition showed an adverse effect. The excess addition of CaO and SiO2 developed a discontinuous grain growth with numerous pores inside grains and lowered the electrical resistivity. The initial permeability decreased with increasing the content of SiO2. The samples with relatively low power loss showed that half of the total loss at 10$0^{\circ}C$, 100 kHz and 2000 Gauss was due to the eddy current loss.

Soft magnetic composite (SMC) material has recently received a significant attention in the area of high-speed machines because of its unique properties such as good design flexibility and low eddy current loss. However, SMC's electromagnetic property is poor compared to silicon steel in terms of saturation, relative permeability, and hysteresis loss. This paper presents a technique for utilization of SMC in two strategic designs of a switched reluctance machine (SRM) depending on a loss pattern. To investigate the effect of SMC's merits and demerits, the stator material is changed from laminated steel to SMC.

Visualization of the tissue loss tangent property can provide distinct contrast and offer new information related to tissue electrical properties. A method for non-invasive imaging of the electrical loss tangent of tissue using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was demonstrated, and the effect of loss tangent was observed through simulations assuming a hyperthermia procedure. For measurement of tissue loss tangent, radiofrequency field maps ($B_1{^+}$ complex map) were acquired using a double-angle actual flip angle imaging MRI sequence. The conductivity and permittivity were estimated from the complex valued $B_1{^+}$ map using Helmholtz equations. Phantom and ex-vivo experiments were then performed. Electromagnetic simulations of hyperthermia were carried out for observation of temperature elevation with respect to loss tangent. Non-invasive imaging of tissue loss tangent via complex valued $B_1{^+}$ mapping using MRI was successfully conducted. Simulation results indicated that loss tangent is a dominant factor in temperature elevation in the high frequency range during hyperthermia. Knowledge of the tissue loss tangent value can be a useful marker for thermotherapy applications.

New valve driving system to control for the best volumetric efficiency at each load of an internal combustion engine within one engine cycle has been developed. The system needs to reduce pumping loss that cause by throttle valve during the intake valve is opened. In this system the intake valve is driven by a linear DC electromagnetic actuator which is controlled by personal computer. The result is compared both installed and uninstalled actuator into the cylinder head. By both of experimental and numerical calculation, the responsibility of the valve driving system to the engine speed was examined

The complexity of modern power systems often makes it impractical to model it in its entirety for electromagnetic transient studies. Therefore areas outside the immediate area of interest must be represented by some form of Frequency Dependent Network Equivalent (FDNE). The advantage of using z-domain fitting is that it can be directly implemented in a digital simulation program without any loss of accuracy. Fitting in the s-domain always requires "discretizing" a continuous system and the inherent approximations. This paper presents z-domain rational function formulation and demonstrates the use of it for the assessment of the transient response of the Lower South Island of New Zealand. Moreover by using a well publicized test system and providing complete information on the developed FDNE coefficients other researchers easily benchmark their work against this.

Ferrite electromagnetic wave absorber whose attenuation ability are mainly relied on their magnetic loss, has been used in relatively narrow wave frequency ranges. In this study, we tried to produce a wide-range electromagnetic wave absorber by laminating sintered ferrite (Mn0.07Ni0.28Zn0.65Fe2O4) and dielectrics (Cordierite). We also investigated effects of dielectric constant and thickness on the attenuation behavior of the absorber. Applicable band width, in which the attenuation is greater than 20 dB can be widened from 100∼700 MHz of ferrite alone to 100∼900MHz by employing the laminated structure. Thickness of dielectrics to achieve wide-range application decreased as the dielectric constant increased.

This study aims to measure the reflection loss and the material constants of the fabricated samples for electromagnectic wave absorber by using $20 mm\phi$ coaxial tube with the endshort-type. The authors have established the extraction algorithm of material constants by one port method, and proved that the results of the experiments were in agreement with the calculated ones. On the basis of the above results, the validity of the proposed measuring method is confirmed. This measurement method could be used effectively for the design of microwave absorber and for its evalustion.
