The centrifugal oil purifier is used in ships for purifying the engine lubrication oil. The momentum needed for the rotation of the cylindrical chamber is obtained by jet injections. The dust particles in the oil are separated by the centrifugal forces moving to the inner wall of the rotating cylindrical chamber body. The dust particles are eliminated when the particles are adsorbed onto the surface of the inner wall of the chamber body. The flow characteristics and the physical behaviours of particles in this centrifugal oil purifier have been investigated numerically and the filtration efficiencies have been evaluated. For the calculations, a commercial code has been used and the SST k-${\omega}$ turbulence model has been adopted. The MRF (Multiple Reference Frame) method has been introduced to consider the rotating effect of the flows. Under various variables, such as particle size, particle density and rotating speed, the filtration efficiencies have been evaluated. It has been verified that the filtration efficiency is increased with the increments of the particle size, the particle density and the rotating speed of the cylindrical chamber.

Video stabilization is an important image enhancement widely used in surveillance system in order to improve recognition performance. Most previous methods calculate inter-frame homography to estimate global motion. These methods are relatively slow and suffer from significant depth variations or multiple moving object. In this paper, we propose a fast and practical approach for video stabilization that selects the most reliable key frame as a reference frame to a current frame. We use optical flow to estimate global motion within an adaptively selected region of interest in static camera environment. Optimal global motion is found by probabilistic voting in the space of optical flow. Experiments show that our method can perform real-time video stabilization validated by stabilized images and remarkable reduction of mean color difference between stabilized frames.

Generally, the AC electrified railway systems have the power quality problems that are induced from the harmonic currents and the reactive power. This paper presents a single-phase hybrid active filter adopting a SRF(synchronous-reference-frame) control for improving power quality in the AC electrified railway systems. The single-phase hybrid active filter can compensate the harmonic currents and the reactive power through the proposed SRF control algorithm. The proposed control algorithm can extract the third and fifth harmonics through the MSRF(multiple-synchronous-reference-frames) which is used to apply the three-phase systems. Therefore, the hybrid active filter can compensates only the high-frequency harmonic currents whereas the passive filter compensates the low-frequency harmonic currents. Also, the proposed SRF control algorithm can compensate the reactive power by the closed-loop control. The Validity and the effectiveness of the proposed SRF control method for the hybrid active filter are illustrated through the simulation results.

Grid-connected inverters (GCIs) with an LCL output filter have the ability of attenuating high-frequency (HF) switching ripples. However, by using only grid-current control, the system is prone to resonances if it is not properly damped, and the current distortion is amplified significantly under highly distorted grid conditions. This paper proposes a synchronous reference frame equivalent proportional-integral (SRF-EPI) controller in the αβ stationary frame using the parallel virtual resistance-based active damping (PVR-AD) strategy for grid-interfaced distributed generation (DG) systems to suppress LCL resonance. Although both a proportional-resonant (PR) controller in the αβ stationary frame and a PI controller in the dq synchronous frame achieve zero steady-state error, the amplitude- and phase-frequency characteristics differ greatly from each other except for the reference tracking at the fundamental frequency. Therefore, an accurate SRF-EPI controller in the αβ stationary frame is established to achieve precise tracking accuracy. Moreover, the robustness, the harmonic rejection capability, and the influence of the control delay are investigated by the Nyquist stability criterion when the PVR-based AD method is adopted. Furthermore, grid voltage feed-forward and multiple PR controllers are integrated into the current loop to mitigate the current distortion introduced by the grid background distortion. In addition, the parameters design guidelines are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed strategy. Finally, simulation and experimental results are provided to validate the feasibility of the proposed control approach.

With reference to the Spread Spectrum techniqeu diseussed and further extended by many investigators, the Peseudo-noise Code Polarity Modulation (PNCPM) technique has proposed in this paper. By using this new technique of PNCPM, some problems pertaining to the Spread Spectrum mode has been sloved. In addition by the PNCPM mode it is proposed that data shifting can be easily demodulated every clock(frame) by measn of simple hardware implementaton for the purpose of operating of the asynchroniged detection mode. And in this paper it is shown that PNCPM mode can be easily implemented by the CCD correlator, and is applicable to the Spread Spectrum Multiple Access.

In this paper, we evaluate the performance of frame synchronization words of pilot bit patterns which are used for the channel estimation and frame synchronization confirmation in W-CDMA(Wide band Code Division Multiple Access) system. W-CDMA system also uses compressed mode to make measurements from another frequency without a full dual receiver terminal. It is confirmed by using computer simulation that the proposed frame synchronization words also maintain the frame synchronization property in the compressed mode by using the complementary mapping relationship of preferred pair ROC(Receiver Operating Characteristic) curves with probability of detection and false alarm are used to analized the performance of the proposed frame synchronization words by using the various detection metrics such as LLRT(Log Likelyhood Ratio Test), GLRT(Generalied Likelyhood Ratio Test), soft and hard correlation tests in AWGN and Rayleigh fading channels. It is expected that the research results fer the performance of pilot bit patterns of this paper can be useful reference for the design and implementation of frame synchronization in 3rd generation W-CDMA system.

To validate the rotor performance analysis, 3D Computational Fluid Dynamics(CFD) analysis was performed for tilt rotor aeroacoustic model(TRAM). Also, 3D vehicle with rotating rotors was simulated for rotor power effect analysis. Multiple reference frame(MRF) and sliding mesh techniques were implemented to capture the effect of rotor revolution. CFD results were compared with the wind tunnel test results to validate their accuracy. At helicopter mode, CFD analysis predicted lower thrust than the wind tunnel test but CFD results showed good agreement with the test result at cruise mode. Rotor power effect decreased the lift but did not change drag and pitching moment.

In the multi-sensor system, sensor registration errors such as a sensor bias must be corrected so that the individual sensor data are expressed in a common reference frame. If registration process is not properly executed, large tracking errors or formation of multiple track on the same target can be occured. Especially for launch vehicle tracking system, each multiple observation lies on the same reference frame and then fused trajectory can be the best track for slaving data. Hence, this paper describes an on-line bias estimation/correction and asynchronous sensor fusion for launch vehicle tracking. The bias estimation architecture is designed based on pseudo bias measurement which derived from error observation between GPS and radar measurements. Then, asynchronous sensor fusion is adapted to enhance tracking performance.

H.264/AVC standard adopts multiple reference frames for motion estimation. This method improves coding efficiency, but it increases complexity of encoder. In this paper, we propose a algorithm that reduces the search range by using the correlation of motion vector. Consequently, motion estimation processing time is 47.5% when compared with standard of five reference frames, and SNR and bitrate are better than that of standard of three multi reference frames.
