In this paper, we explained the design technique about Ka-band active limiter for protecting the receiver of a millimeter wave seeker. To implement low flat leakage power, we proposed the control circuit of active limiter to control limiter voltage with PRF(Pulse Repetition Frequency) signal and input power. This active limiter consisted of the conventional 2 stage passive limiter, a feedback circuit with a directional coupler, detector, non-inverting amplifier and over-current protection resistance. As the test result of the fabricated Ka-band limiter, it had 1 GHz bandwidth, 3.5 dB insertion loss at the small input power and -7.5 dBm flat leakage at the 4 W RF input power, respectively.

In this paper, the wideband mono-pulse radar using AGC and limiter is designed. The output response characteristics of the mono-pulse radar using AGC and limiter are analyzed, respectively. In addition, the output response for jamming input signals is analyzed. The range tracking loop in the mono-pulse radar has robust output response to the noise jamming input signal. Although the output settling response of the AGC-based mono-pulse radar is larger than that of the limiter-based mono-pulse radar, the AGC-based mono-pulse radar has robustness to the noise jamming input signal due to feedback loop.

This paper is a study on inductive superconducting fault current limiter design.. We have created simulation for an imaginery power system with inductive superconducting fault current limiter. Then input variables for characteristic analysis and actual manufacturing, and output variables for design results was assigned. Using the results from these variables, the design criterion was determined which was fed into concept design arising from characteristic analysis to determine the inductance of limiting coil and normal state resistance value of triggering coil. These result was put back into design details to finally give out the design result for inductive superconducting fault current limiter.

According to IAEA regulations, a transportation package of radioactive material should perform its intended function of containing the radioactive contents after the drop test, which is one of hypothetical accident conditions. Impact limiters attached to a transport cask absorb the most of impact energy. So, it is appreciated to determine properly the shape, size and material of impact limiters. A material data needed in this determination is a dynamic one. In this study, several materials considered as those of impact limiters were tested by a drop weight facility to acquire dynamic material characteristics data. Impact absorbing volume of the impact limiter was derived mathematically for each drop condition. A size optimization of impact limiter was conducted. The derived impact absorbing volumes were applied as constraints. These volumes should be less than critical volumes generated based on the dynamic material characteristics. The derived procedure to decide the shape of impact limiter can be useful at the preliminary design stage when the transportation package's outline is roughly determined and applied as input value.

This paper deals with the design and implementation of a limiter, which is a key component of the Ku-band radar system. The limiter design with the multi-pin diode switch was complemented by wideband signal attenuation, and realized the physical implementation. In the test result of implemented limiter, when the pin diode switch is all off, it is possible to transmit the incoming signal without distortion. Also when the pin diode switch is turned on sequentially, the input signal is attenuated about 20dB or more step by step. Finally when all of them were turned on, attenuation about 50dB or more were measured for a wide bandwidth(1000MHz) in Ku-band.

As the equipments with the fast load characteristics become popular, a onboard generator should satisfy the fast response characteristics. This paper describes the modeling, simulation and experiment of the homo-polar generator developed for the fast load. The simulation model of a homo-polar generator with input limiter is developed, and the optimal gain to improve the response characteristics can be determined by simulation and analysis. The improved bandwidth and stability of the developed generator with optimal gain are verified by simulation and experiment.

This paper is a study on the computer simulation of the characteristics of the superconducting fault current limiter. Input variable parameters are apparent power, load resistance value, line resistance value and so on. Initial fault current 2 times larger than the trigger current is required to reduce the switching time of SFCL. The propagation velocity increases abruptly, the transport current is several times larger than the ciritical current. In this paper, the switching time is calculated to be 323$\mu$ sec, and the initial fault current is 19 times larger than the critical current. Because the trigger coils are bifilar winding, they have little impedance in superconducting state. After fault occurred, the limiting coil acts as a superconducting reactor and the trigger coils quench at a critical current. Without the SFCL in the circuit, fault current after the load impedence is shorted might be increased to 1100A. The fault current is, therefore, successfully limited by the superconducting limiting coil to 100A determined by the coil inductance.

In this paper, the analytic design technique for a planar PIN diode limiter is presented rather than the conventional design heavily relying on the experiments. The novel analysis fur the PIN diode limiter shows the leakage is composed of two kinds of leakages and the relationship between the leakages and the PIN diode parameters. The designed limiter consists of 3 stages; the front two stages with two PM diodes and the final stage with Schottky diode pair. The fabricated limiter shows the insertion loss of 0.8 dB for the small input power, spike leakage of 12 Bm, flat leakage of 12 dBm for the 20 W RF power.

Analysis for the thermal stress distribution in the laminated plates containing a hot-spot(local heating region) is performed. It is assumed that the local heating region induces only mechanical stress by the thermal expansion but effect of the thermal conduction is neglected. The region is regarded equivalent to a homogeneous inclusion expanding in a laminated medium. As an example, Au/YBCO/Al$_2$O$_3$laminate which is often employed for High Temperature Superconducting Fault Current Limiter(HTS FCL) has been analyzed. Effects of heat input, thickness of each layer and the got spot size upon the stress distribution in the hot-spot have been investigated. For a constant heat generation into the hot-spot, as the thickness of the Al$_2$O$_3$substrate increases, the stress in the YBCO layer is peculiarly oscillated, and the curvature of laminate has a maximum at a certain thickness of the Al$_2$O$_3$.

Virus throttling technique, one of many early worm detection techniques, detects the Internet worm propagation by limiting the connect requests within a certain ratio. The typical virus throttling detects worm occurrence by monitoring the length of delay queue with the fixed period of rate limiter. In this paper, we propose an algorithm that controls the period of rate limiter autonomically by utilizing the weighted average delay queue length and suggest various period determination policies that use the weighted average delay queue length as an input parameter. Through deep experiments, it is verified that the proposed technique is able to lessen inconvenience of users by reducing the connection delay time with haying just little effect on worm detection time.
