본 논문은 충전식 배터리의 단점을 보완하여 급속 충전과 방전이 가능하고 높은 전력 효율 및 반영구적인 충·방전 사이클 수명의 특성을 갖는 수퍼커패시터를 보조 전력 저장장치로 사용하여 전력 관리 시스템에 결합한 프로토타입 플랫폼을 제안한다. 본 논문의 플랫폼을 위해 물리적인 환경 변화에 따른 태양광 패널에서의 공급 전력 차단 혹은 재개 상태를 마이크로컨트롤러에 연결된 인터럽트를 통해 감지할 수 있는 기법을 개발하였다. 연속적인 전원 공급이 보장되지 않는 컴퓨팅 환경에서 데이터의 유실을 방지하기 위해 전원 공급이 차단되는 경우 휘발성 메모리에 있는 프로그램 문맥 및 데이터를 비휘발성 메모리로 이전하는 낮은 수준의 시스템 소프트웨어를 마이크로컨트롤러에 구현하였다. 실험을 통해 슈퍼커패시터가 보조 전력 저장장치로서 일시적 전원 공급에 효과적으로 하는지를 검증하였으며 다양한 벤치마크를 통해 전원 상태 감지 및 휘발성 메모리에서 비휘발성 메모리로의 프로그램 문맥 및 데이터의 이전 기법이 낮은 오버헤드를 갖음을 확인하였다.

전송 신호의 높은 PAPR (Peak-to-Average Power Ratio)은 OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing)의 주된 문제점중의 하나이다. PTS (Partial Transmit Sequences) 기법은 OFDM 신호의 PAPR의 통계를 개선하는 기법이다. 그러나 PTS 기법에서 위상 가중치의 선택을 위한 계산 복잡도는 서브블록의 수에 따라 지수적으로 증가한다. 본 논문에서는 ${\mu}$-GA (micro-Genetic Algorithm) 기반의 위상 가중치 탐색 알고리즘을 적용한 낮은 계산 복잡도를 갖는 PTS 기법을 제안한다. 위상 가중치의 탐색은 랜덤하게 생성한 5 개체의 개체군으로부터 시작한다. 이 중에서 적합도가 가장 큰 엘리트와 토너먼트 선택 방법에 의해 나머지 4 개체를 선택하고 교배 연산을 통해 다음 세대를 구성한다. 만일 생성된 세대가 수렴한다면 엘리트를 제외한 나머지 개체를 다시 랜덤하게 생성한다. 일정 세대 이상 PAPR이 개선되지 않거나 사전에 정해진 최대 세대수까지 진행하면 탐색을 종료한다. 제안하는 PTS 기법의 성능을 평가하기 위해 PAPR의 CCDF (Complementary Cumulative Distribution Function)를 이전의 PTS 기법과 비교한다.

The experimental design and response surface methodology (RSM) have been applied to the investigation of the electro-UV complex process for the disinfection of E. coli in the water. The disinfection reactions of electro-UV process were mathematically described as a function of parameters power ($X_1$), NaCl dosage ($X_2$), initial pH ($X_3$) and disinfection time ($X_4$) being modeled by use of the Box-Behnken technique. The application of RSM using the Box-Behnken technique yielded the following regression equation, which is an empirical relationship between the residual E. coli number and test variables in actual variables: Ln (CFU) = 23.57 - 0.87 power - 1.87 NaCl dosage - 2.13 pH - 2.84 time - 0.09 power time - 0.07 NaCl dosage pH + 0.14 pH time + 0.03 $power^2$ + 0.47 NaCl $dosage^2$ + 0.20 $pH^2$+ 0.33 $time^2$. The model predictions agreed well with the experimentally observed result ($R^2$ = 0.9987). Graphical response surface and contour plots were used to locate the optimum point. The estimated ridge of maximum response and optimal conditions for the E. coli disinfection using canonical analysis was Ln 1.06 CFU (power, 15.40 W; NaCl dosage, 1.95 g/L, pH, 5.94 and time, 4.67 min). To confirm this optimum condition, the obtained number of the residual E. coli after three additional experiments were Ln 1.05, 1.10 and Ln 1.12. These values were within range of 0.62 (95% PI low)~1.50 (95% PI high), which indicated that conforming the reproducibility of the model.

IoT can be connected through a single network not only objects which can be connected to existing internet but also objects which has communication capability. This IoT environment will be a huge change to the existing communication paradigm. However, the big security problem must be solved in order to develop further IoT. Security mechanisms reflecting these characteristics should be applied because devices participating in the IoT have low processing ability and low power. In addition, devices which perform abnormal behaviors between objects should be also detected. Therefore, in this paper, we proposed D-IDS technique for efficient detection of malicious attack nodes between devices participating in the IoT. The proposed technique performs the central detection and distribution detection to improve the performance of attack detection. The central detection monitors the entire network traffic at the boundary router using SVM technique and detects abnormal behavior. And the distribution detection combines RSSI value and reliability of node and detects Sybil attack node. The performance of attack detection against malicious nodes is improved through the attack detection process. The superiority of the proposed technique can be verified by experiments.

AC/AC power conversion is widely used to feed AC loads with a variable voltage and/or a variable frequency from a constant voltage constant frequency power grid or to connect critical loads to an unreliable power supply while delivering a very balanced and accurate sinusoidal voltage system of constant amplitude and frequency. The load specifications will clearly impose the requirements for the inverter stage of the power converter, while wider ranges of choices are available for the rectifier. This paper investigates the utilization of a buck-type current source rectifier as the active front-end stage of an AC/AC converter for applications that require an adjustable DC-link voltage as well as elimination of the low-frequency common mode voltage. The proposed solution is to utilize a combination of two or more zero current vectors in the Space Vector Modulation (SVM) technique for Current Sources Rectifiers (CSR).

This paper presents methods to improve performance of the power supply system in a NASA deep space explorer. In the Stirling engine driven reciprocating Brushless DC (BLDC) generator, the accurate position information of the prime mover is important to diagnose the performance of the engine and prevent distortion of the output power. Since sensors to detect the position are fragile and unreliable, and conventional sensorless techniques have drawbacks in the low speed region, a novel sensorless position detection technique for the prime mover has been proposed and verified. Another major issue of the generator for the spacecraft is power density maximization. The mass of the power system is important to the mass of the satellite. Therefore, the components of the spacecraft should be lightweight. Conventional rectification methods cannot achieve the maximum power possible due to non-optimal current waveforms. The optimal current waveform for maximizing power density and minimizing machine size and weight in a nonsinusoidal power supply system has been derived, incorporated in a control system, and verified by simulation work.

This paper proposes a model predictive control based on the discrete Lyapunov function to improve the performance of power electronic converters. The proposed control technique, based on the finite control set model predictive control (FCS-MPC), defines a cost function for the control law which is determined under the Lyapunov stability theorem with a control error compensation. The steady state and dynamic performance of the proposed control strategy has been tested under a single phase AC/DC voltage source rectifier (S-VSR). Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed control strategy not only offers global stability and good robustness but also leads to a high quality sinusoidal current with a reasonably low total harmonic distortion (THD) and a fast dynamic response under linear loads.

In this paper, an effective numerical analysis method is proposed for calculating dosimetry of the wireless power transfer system operating low-frequency ranges. The finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method is widely used to analyze bio-electromagnetic field problems, which require high resolution, such as a heterogeneous whole-body voxel human model. However, applying the standard method in the low-frequency band incurs an inordinate number of time steps. We overcome this problem by proposing a modified finite-difference time-domain method which utilizes a quasi-static approximation with the surface equivalence theorem. The analysis results of the simple model by using proposed method are in good agreement with those from a commercial electromagnetic simulator. A simulation of the induced electric fields in a human head voxel model exposed to a wireless power transmission system provides a realistic example of an application of the proposed method. The simulation results of the realistic human model with the proposed method are verified by comparing it with the conventional FDTD method.

This paper presents a low-complexity channel-adaptive reconfigurable $4{\times}4$ QR-decomposition and M-algorithm-based maximum likelihood detection (QRM-MLD) multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) detector. Two novel design approaches for low-power QRM-MLD hardware are proposed in this work. First, an approximate survivor metric (ASM) generation technique is presented to achieve considerable computational complexity reduction with minor BER degradation. A reconfigurable QRM-MLD MIMO detector (where the M-value represents the number of survival branches in a stage) for dynamically adapting to time-varying channels is also proposed in this work. The proposed reconfigurable QRM-MLD MIMO detector is implemented using a Samsung 65 nm CMOS process. The experimental results show that our ASM-based QRM-MLD MIMO detector shows a maximum throughput of 288 Mbps with a normalized power efficiency of 10.18 Mbps/mW in the case of $4{\times}4$ MIMO with 64-QAM. Under time-varying channel conditions, the proposed reconfigurable MIMO detector also achieves average power savings of up to 35% while maintaining a required BER performance.
