This paper describes the role of mutual impedance and the transducer power gain which comes from key parameters to determine the amount of wireless power especially in a near-field environment. These two key parameters are applied to the two configurations; one is a dipole-dipole, and the other is a dipole-metal plate-loop configuration. Discussions are given on the achievable maximum power transfer between the sender and the receiver affected by the matching and the pass blockage.

본 논문에서는 UHF 대역에서 동작하는 광대역에서 일정한 준 등방성 특성을 가지는 U-형태의 RFID 태그 안테나를 제안하였다. 제안한 태그 안테나는 복사부에 해당하는 U-형태의 반파장 다이폴 안테나 본체에 상용 태그 칩과의 공액 정합이 용이하도록 사각형태의 급전부를 연결하였다. 또한, 본체 하단 중앙에 직사각형 슬릿을 삽입하여 동작 대역폭 안에서 태그 안테나가 일정한 준 등방성 특성을 가지도록 하였다. 태그 안테나는 VSWR<2를 기준으로 슬릿이 없을 경우 $860.5{\sim}954.5\;MHz$의 대역폭과 슬릿이 있을 경우 $864.5{\sim}954\;MHz$의 대역폭을 가졌다. VSWR<5.8을 기준으로 슬릿이 없을 경우와 슬릿이 있을 경우 각각 $835.5{\sim}979.5\;MHz$의 대역폭과 $837{\sim}981.5\;MHz$의 대역폭을 얻었다. 정합 주파수 대역 안에서 슬릿이 없는 태그 안테나의 치대 이득편차와 최소 이득편차는 각각 3.86 dB와 3.33 dB로 약 0.53 dB 차이를 가졌고, 슬릿이 있을 경우에는 최대 이득편차와 최소 이득편차가 각각 3.60 dB와 3.54 dB로 약 0.06 dB 차이의 매우 일정한 이득편차 특성을 가졌다.

In a power system that has a high wind penetration, the output power fluctuation of a large-scale wind turbine generator (WTG) caused by the varying wind speed increases the maximum frequency deviation, which is an important metric to assess the quality of electricity, because of the reduced system inertia. This paper proposes a stable power-smoothing scheme of a doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) that can suppress the maximum frequency deviation, particularly for a power system with a high wind penetration. To do this, the proposed scheme employs an additional control loop relying on the system frequency deviation that operates in combination with the maximum power point tracking control loop. To improve the power-smoothing capability while guaranteeing the stable operation of a DFIG, the gain of the additional loop is modified with the rotor speed and frequency deviation. The gain is set to be high if the rotor speed and/or frequency deviation is large. The simulation results based on the IEEE 14-bus system demonstrate that the proposed scheme significantly lessens the output power fluctuation of a WTG under various scenarios by modifying the gain with the rotor speed and frequency deviation, and thereby it can regulate the frequency deviation within a narrow range.

In this paper, we present a schematic method estimating the tracking vibration quantity occurring in the track-following system of an optical recording device. A tracking loop gain adjustment algorithm is introduced to estimate accurately the tracking vibration quantity in spite of the uncertainties of the tracking actuator, Accordingly, the tracking vibration quantity can be estimated from the tracking error, the controller output, the nominal actuator model, and a compensated gain. An optimal tracking controller can be designed from a minimum tracking open-loop gain calculated by the estimated tracking vibration quantity The proposed vibration quantity estimation and controller design method are applied to the track-following system of an optical recording device and are evaluated through the experimental result.

In this paper, a low noise amplifier having high gain and low noise by using input and inter stage matching circuits has been designed. A current-reused two-stage common-source topology is adopted, which can obtain high gain and low power consumption. Deterioration of noise characteristics according to the source inductive degeneration matching is compensated by adopting additional matching circuits. Moreover trade-offs among noise, gain, linearity, impedance matching, and power dissipation have been considered. In this design, 0.18-mm CMOS process is employed for the simulation. The simulated results show that the designed low noise amplifier can provide high power gain and low noise characteristics.

본 논문에서는 SDMB(Satellite Digital Multimedia Broadcasting) 시스템에서 동작하는 고 이득 광대역 안테나를 구현하였다. 제안된 안테나는 표면파를 억제하기 위한 SAP(Shorted Annular Patch) 구조와 이득, 대역폭 그리고 지향성을 개선시키기 위하여 $0.25 {\lambda}_0$ 간격을 갖는 3차원 배열의 기생 SAP로 구성되었다. 원형 패치상의 서로 반대 방향으로 농인 두 개의 슬릿을 이용하여 RHCP(Right Hand Circular Polarization)로 동작하도록 하였다. 모의 실험 결과, 제안된 안테나의 최대 방사 이득은 기존의 마이크로스트립 패치 안테나에 비해서 5.22 dBi 개선된 12.6 dBi로 나타났다. 제작된 안테나는 동작 주파수 2.63 GHz에서 최대 방사 이득이 10.5 dBi로 나타났다. 측정된 임피던스 대역폭$(VSWR{\leq}2)$은 기존의 마이크로스트림 패치 안테나에 비해서 300 MHZ 개선된 $360 MHz(2.488{\sim}2.848 GHz)$이며, HPBW(Half Power Beam Width)는 $45.8^{\circ}$, FBR(Front Back Ratio)은 15.49dBi로 나타났다. 3dB 축비 대역폭은 220 MHz$(2.54{\sim}2.76 GHz)$를 얻었다.

In this paper, a decoupled proportional-integral-derivative (PID) control approach for seismic control of smart structures is presented. First, the state space equation of a structure is transformed into modal coordinates and parameters of the modal PID control are separately designed in a reduced modal space. Then, the feedback gain matrix of the controller is obtained based on the contribution of modal responses to the structural responses. The performance of the controller is investigated to adjust control force of piezoelectric friction dampers (PFDs) in a benchmark base isolated building. In order to tune the modal feedback gain of the controller, a suitable trade-off among the conflicting objectives, i.e., the reduction of maximum modal base displacement and the maximum modal floor acceleration of the smart base isolated structure, as well as the maximum modal control force, is created using a multi-objective cuckoo search (MOCS) algorithm. In terms of reduction of maximum base displacement and story acceleration, numerical simulations show that the proposed method performs better than other reported controllers in the literature. Moreover, simulation results show that the PFDs are able to efficiently dissipate the input excitation energy and reduce the damage energy of the structure. Overall, the proposed control strategy provides a simple strategy to tune the control forces and reduces the number of sensors of the control system to the number of controlled stories.

This paper presents a high-linearity low-noise small-size programmable gain amplifier (PGA) based on a new low-noise low-distortion differential amplifier and a proposed reconfiguration technique. The proposed differential amplifier combines an inverter-based differential pair with an adaptive biasing circuit to reduce noise and distortion. The reconfiguration technique saves the chip size by half by utilizing the same differential pair for the input transconductance and load-stage, interchangeably. Fabricated in $0.18-{\mu}m$ CMOS, the proposed PGA shows a dB-linear control range of 21dB in 16 steps from -11 dB to 10 dB with a gain error of less than ${\pm}0.33$ dB, an IIP3 of 7.4~14.5 dBm, a P1dB of -7~1.2 dBm, a noise figure of 13dB, and a 3-dB bandwidth of 270MHz at the maximum gain, respectively. The PGA occupies a chip area of $0.04mm^2$ and consumes only 1.3 mA from the 1.8 V supply.

Traditional boost converters have difficulty realizing high efficiency and high voltage gain conversion due to 1) extremely large duty cycles, 2) high voltage and current stresses on devices, and 3) low conversion efficiency. Therefore, a function decoupling high voltage gain DC/DC converter composed of a DC transformer (DCX) and an auxiliary converter is proposed. The role of DCX is to realize fixed gain conversion with high efficiency, whereas the role of the auxiliary converter is to regulate the output voltage. In this study, different forms of combined high voltage gain converters are compared and analyzed, and a structure is selected for the function decoupling high voltage gain converter. Then, topologies and control strategies for the DCX and auxiliary converter are discussed. On the basis of the discussion, an optimal design method for circuit parameters is proposed, and design procedures for the DCX are described in detail. Finally, a 400 W experimental prototype based on the proposed optimal design method is built to verify the accuracy of the theoretical analysis. The measured maximum conversion efficiency at rated power is 95.56%.
