This paper proposes a non-isolated bidirectional soft-switching converter with high voltage for high step-up/down and high power applications. Compared to the conventional boost converter the proposed converter can achieve approximately doubled voltage gain using the same duty cycle. The voltage ratings of the switch and diode are reduced to half, which result in the use of devices with lower $R_{DS(ON)}$ and on drop leading to reduced conduction losses. Also, voltage ratings of the passive components are reduced, and therefore the total energy volume is reduced to half. Further, the switch is turned on with ZVS in the CCM operation which results in negligible surge caused leading to reduced switching losses. The validity of the proposed converter is proved through a 10kW prototype.

This paper proposes a gain switching algorithm for joint position control of a hydraulic humanoid robot. Accurate position control of the lower body is one of the basic requirements for robust balance and walking control. Joint position control is more difficult for hydraulic robots than it is for electric robots because of an absence of reduction gear and better back-drivability of hydraulic joints. Backdrivability causes external forces and torques to have a large effect on the position of the joints. External ground reaction forces therefore prevent a simple proportional-derivative (PD) controller from realizing accurate and fast joint position control. We propose a state feedback controller for joint position control of the lower body, define three modes of state feedback gains, and switch the gains according to the Zero Moment Point (ZMP) and linear interpolation. Dynamic equations of hydraulic actuators were experimentally derived and applied to a robot simulator. Finally, the performance of the algorithm is evaluated with dynamic simulations.

국재에서 성장 가공시킨 Nd:YAG 결정을 사용한 발진기를 설계제작하였다. 이로부터 발진동작, Q-스위칭, 출력광속의 위상파면 등을 조사하였으며, 다음으로 단일 경로 이득을 측정하였다. 츨력경의 반사율의 변화에 따르는 문턱 입력에너지를 결정하고 이로부터 단일 경로 이득을 계산하였다. 한편 레이저와 발진기 증폭기를 사용하는 보편적인 방법에 의하여 단일 경로 이득을 측정하여 비교 검증하였다. Q-스위칭 레이칭 레이저 최대출력은 1.5MW이고, 펄스폭은 30ns이었으며, 문턱 에너지에서 이득은 0.0958 cm-1 이었다. 실험과정에서 똑같은 사양의 외국산 Nd:YAG 결정에 의한 비교실험을 동시에 수행하였으며, 이로부터 국산 레이저 Nd3+:YAG결정의 레이저 발진 특성이 우수함을 확신할 수 있었다.

The spectral and temporal characteristics of a V-groove AIGaAs-GaAs quantum wire (QWR) laser were investigated with varying the cavity length. At cavity lengths shorter than 300 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, a discrete shift in tile wavelength occurred from the n=1 to the n=2 subband due to the increased cavity losses. Utilizing this characteristic, ultrafast lasing characteristics at each subband were investigated by tile gain switching method.

Using a sliding mode controller and observer techniques, this paper presents a robust current controller for a DC motor in the presence of parametric uncertainties. One of the most important issues in the practical application of sliding mode schemes is the chattering phenomenon caused by switching actions. This paper presents a novel sliding mode controller that incorporates an integral control with a sliding mode disturbance observer to attenuate the chattering by reducing the controller/observer switching gains. The proposed sliding mode disturbance observer is designed to estimate a relatively slow varying signal in the equivalent lumped disturbance owing to system uncertainties. Combining the estimated uncertainty with the sliding mode control input, the proposed controller can achieve the control objective by using the relatively low gain of the controller. The proposed disturbance observer does not include the switching control input of the baseline sliding mode controller to reduce the observer switching gain. In the proposed approach, the integral sliding mode control is used to improve the steady state control performance. Comparative computer simulations are carried out to demonstrate the performance of the proposed method. Through the simulation results, the proposed controller realizes the robust performance with reduced current ripples.

본 논문은 분산 제어되는 셀룰라 시스템에서 셀간 간섭을 제어하기 위하여 SIR 기반 빔스위칭을 제안한다. 셀의 빔스위칭 패턴을 랜덤하게 결정하여 인접셀간 빔충돌을 피할 수 없는 기존의 랜덤 빔스위칭과 달리 SIR 기반 빔스위칭은 단말로부터 보고되는 SIR 추정값에 기반하여 셀의 빔스위칭 패턴을 업데이트한다. 인접셀들은 각각 독립적으로 자신의 빔 스위칭 패턴을 업데이트하며 인접셀간 빔의 충돌을 회피하는 빔스위칭 패턴으로 수렴해 간다. 본 논문은 두 인접한 셀 모델을 사용하여 SIR기반 빔스위칭이 랜덤 빔스위칭에 비해 약 20%의 성능 이득이 있음을 보인다.

We have investigated gain flattening of EDFA systems with or without a gain equalizer for WDM long-haul transmission using a re-circulating EDFA loop. Without a gain equalizer, gain variation as small as 2.9 dB was achieved over the 10-nm band of a 100 cascaded EDFA system by the inversion principle. With a gain equalizer based on all-fiber acousto-optic tunable filters, two different config-urations of EDFAs were tested. For a single-stage EDFA scheme, the 21-nm band has shown 3.8 dB of gain variation at 17.4 ∼ 20.3 dB of OSNRs after the 100the stage of EDFAs. For a dual-stage EDFA scheme, a wider bandwidth of 34 nm has shown 3.6-dB variation after 40 cascaded EDFAs.

The constant on-time current-mode controlled (COT-CMC) switching dc-dc converter is stable, with no subharmonic oscillation in its current loop when a voltage ripple in its outer voltage loop is ignored. However, when its output capacitance is small or its feedback gain is high, subharmonic oscillation may occur in a COT-CMC buck converter with a proportional-integral (PI) compensator. To investigate the subharmonic instability of COT-CMC buck converters with a PI compensator, an accurate reduced-order asynchronous-switching map model of a COT-CMC buck converter with a PI compensator is established. Based on this, the instability behaviors caused by output capacitance and feedback gain are investigated. Furthermore, an approximate instability condition is obtained and design-oriented stability boundaries in different circuit parameter spaces are yielded. The analysis results show that the instability of COT-CMC buck converters with a PI compensator is mainly affected by the output capacitance, output capacitor equivalent series resistance (ESR), feedback gain, current-sensing gain and constant on-time. The study results of this paper are helpful for the circuit parameter design of COT-CMC switching dc-dc converters. Experimental results are provided to verify the analysis results.

In this study, a hierarchical switching control scheme based on robust control theory is proposed for tracking control of vehicle longitudinal acceleration in the presence of large uncertainties. A model set consisting of four multiplicative-uncertainty models is set up, and its corresponding controller set is designed by the LMI approach, which can ensures the robust performance of the closed loop system under arbitray switching. Based on the model set and the controller set, a switching index function by estimating the system gain of the uncertainties between the plant and the nominal model is designed to determine when and which controller should be switched into the closed loop. After theoretical analyses, experiments have also been carried out to validate the proposed control algorithm. The results show that the control system has good performance of robust stability and tracking ability in the presence of large uncertainties. The response time is smaller than 1.5s and the max tracking error is about $0.05\;m/S^2$ with the step input.

In this paper, a new interleaved high step-up converter with low voltage stress on the switches is proposed. In the proposed converter, soft switching is provided for all switches by just one auxiliary switch, which decreases the conduction loss of auxiliary circuit. Also, the auxiliary circuit is expanded on the converter with more input branches. In the converter all main switches operate under zero voltage switching condition and auxiliary switch operate under zero current switching condition. Because of the interleaved structure, the reliability of converter increases and input current ripples decreases. The clamp capacitor in the converter not only absorb the voltage spikes across the switch due to leakage inductance, but also improve voltage gain. The proposed converter is fully analyzed and to verify the theoretical analysis, a 100 W prototype was implemented. Also, to show the effectiveness of auxiliary circuit on conduction EMI, EMI of the proposed converter comprised with hard switching counterpart.
