The multi-carrier transmission signal in Multi-Carrier Code Division Multiple Access (MC-CDMA) has a high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR), which results in nonlinear distortion and deteriorative system performance. An n-tuple selective mapping method is proposed to reduce the PAPR, in this paper. This method generates $2^n$ sequences of an original data sequence by adding n-tuple of n PAPR control bits to it followed by an interleaver and error-control code (ECC) to reduce its PAPR. The convolutional, Golay, and Hamming codes are used as ECCs in the proposed scheme. The proposed method uses different numbers of the n PAPR control bits to accomplish a noteworthy PAPR reduction and also avoids the need for a side-information transmission. The simulation results authenticate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

High peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) of transmitted signals is a major drawback in Multicarrier modulation (MCM) systems. Companding transform is a well-known method to reduce the PAPR without restrictions on system parameters such as the number of subcarriers, frame format and constellation type. In this paper, a novel adaptive companding scheme, mainly focuses on compressing the large signals into the desirable distribution, is proposed to reduce the PAPR with low implementation complexity. In addition, formulas to calculate its PAPR and bit error rate (BER) performance are also derived. Simulation results confirm that the proposed scheme can achieve an effective tradeoff between PAPR reduction and BER performance by carefully choosing the companding parameter.

이동통신 시스템의 OFDMA 방식은 신호에 대한 PAPR(Peak to Average Power Ratio) 값의 증가를 가져왔다. 이동통신 시스템 전력 소모의 대부분을 차지하는 전력 증폭기에 대한 효율 개선은 매우 중요한 핵심 기술이다. 전력 증폭기의 선형 특성 개선을 위해 디지털전치왜곡 기술을 사용하였으며, 전력 증폭기의 효율 개선을 위해 비대칭 도허티(Asymmetric Doherty) 방식을 사용하였다. 본 논문에서는 기존 비대칭 도허티 구조와 다른 새로운 구조의 비대칭 도허티 구조를 제안하였다. 제안하는 새로운 구조의 비대칭 도허티 방식에서는 전력 증폭기 구동단을 주경로와 첨두경로로 분리하였으며, 위상 변환기를 이용하여 도허티 증폭기의 전력 결합 특성을 개선하였다. 또한 구동단 첨두 증폭기 gate bais에 대한 포락선 추적 기술을 적용하여 효율을 개선하였다.

High-energy, high-power, quasi-continuous wave (QCW) operation of double-clad Yb fiber lasers incorporating an incoherent signal combiner is reported. We constructed four efficient, high-power Yb fiber lasers, each of which produced rectangular pulses at 1080 nm with a pulse energy greater than 15 J, and a pulse duration of 10 ms at a repetition rate of 10 Hz, corresponding to an average power of over 150 W and a peak power of over 1.5 kW for ~200 W of incident pump power at 915 nm. These laser outputs were combined by a homemade incoherent fiber signal combiner with low loss, yielding a maximum peak power of ~6.0 kW in a beam with $M^2{\approx}12.5$. The detailed laser characteristics and prospects for further power scaling in QCW operation are discussed.

Manufacture of motor by laser has been studying realization that was demands on market for lightening and miniaturization. Moreover. early in the 1980s. manufacture of parts for automobiles by laser welding was already successfully introduced. The purpose of this study was to develop production technology of the high quality laminated stator core for motor by pulsed Nd:YAG laser heat source. In the event of adjusting defocus and voltage to control humping in laser welding of the laminated core. sound bead could be obtained. but deep penetration was not. Therefore. explosive evaporating plasma was controlled by adjustment of peak power on pulse width. Particularly, because explosive evaporating plasma induced high peak power, made molten metal in keyhole scatter. a suitable adjustment of peak power was required to obtain sound bead. As a results of experiment. sound bead and deep penetration could be obtained.

In this paper, the inverter TIG(Tungsten Inert Gas) welding system with high power efficiency by means of pulse current control of welding process is presented. In TIG welding, pulse current control is utilized in order to attain less apatter and high welding performance. The four factors which determine the welding performance of the pulse current are frequency, base current, peak current, and peak current duty current, and peak current duty ratio. In this paper, we analyze these factors should be controlled to achieve minimum power input. To demonstrate the practical significance of our results, we present some experimental results as well as simulation results.

Prompt capture gammas are an important part of the fission reactor gamma field. Because some of the structural materials after neutron capture can emit photons with high energies forming the dominant component of the gamma spectrum in the high energy region, the following study of the high energy capture gamma was carried out. High energy gamma radiation may play a major role in areas of the radiation sciences as reactor dosimetry. The HPGe measurements and calculations of the high-energy aluminum capture gamma were performed at two moderator levels in the VR-1 pool-type reactor. The result comparison for nominal levels was within two sigma uncertainties for the major 7.724 MeV peak. A larger discrepancy of 60% was found for the 7.693 MeV peak. The spectra were also measured using a stilbene detector, and a good agreement between HPGe and stilbene was observed. This confirms the validity of stilbene measurements of gamma flux. Additionally, agreement of the wide peak measurement in 7-9.2 MeV by stilbene detector shows the possibility of using the organic scintillators as an independent power monitor. This fact is valid in these reactor types because power is proportional to the thermal neutron flux, which is also proportional to the production of capture gammas forming the wide peak.

This study analyzed competition in peak load plants between CCGT and GT instead of competition between base and peak load plants like in previous studies. In common overseas power markets, CCGT and GT claim certain market shares as peak load plants with the latter boasting a high utilization rate as reserve plants. In South Korea, however, there has been no introduction of GT in the market that opened in 2001 with no analysis cases of GT's economy as a peak load plant. The current power market of South Korea is run on the cost-based pool, which allows for no price spikes. Since the capacity payment criteria for compensations for missing money are set based on GT generators, the power market uses GT generators as marginal plants. The purposes of this study were to analyze the competitive edge of GT generators as peak load plants in the domestic power market of South Korea and identify the causes of GT's failure in market entry, thus assessing the adequacy of market signals in the domestic power market.

본 논문에서는 지능적인 원거리 무선전력전송의 방식으로 시간 역전(time reversal) 기반 전파 집속 방법을 제시하였다. 시간 역전 기반의 무선전력전송은 복잡한 전파환경에서도 기기의 위치에 상관없이 전파를 선택적으로 집속하여 높은 peak 전력을 전달할 수 있다. 현실과 가까운 전파환경 시뮬레이션을 통하여 시간 역전 기반의 시 공간 전파 집속 현상을 검증하였고, 집속된 RF를 정류하여 전달된 DC 전압을 확인하였다. 또한 일반적인 협대역 신호(CW) 대비 시간 역전 신호의 peak 향상률과 정류 전력비를 확인한 결과, 최대 12 dB 향상된 peak 전력이 전송되었으며, 따라서 보다 높은 효율로 전력전송이 이루어짐을 확인하였다.

Systemic heating and cooling air conditioning systems are popular in various industrial fields and even home. Recently, the rate of supply of this kind of multi-heat pump has been increased under ESCO financing supporting system. Generally the heat pumping system has a structural simplicity and easy installation benefits. and has good running efficiency under normal designed condition. But under extreme climate condition (over $+30^{\circ}C$, under $-10^{\circ}C$), this system exposes abnormal power consumption. It causes high progressive electric power rates and resultant peak power capacity of power plant. In this paper, a novel system concept of buffering refrigerant accumulator and constant pressure control system to relieve peak power load is proposed and this system's utility is verified with an prototype experimental system.
