  • A method to control the speed or the torque of a permanent-magnet direct current motor is presented. The rotor speed and the external torque estimation are simultaneously provided by appropriate observers. The sensorless control scheme is based on current measurement and switching states of power devices. The observers performances are dependent on the accurate machine parameters knowledge. Sliding mode control approach was adopted for drive control, providing the suitable switching states to the chopper power devices. Despite the predictable chattering, a convenient first order switching function was considered enough to define the sliding surface and to correspond with the desired control specifications and drive performance. The experimental implementation was supported on a single dsPIC and the controller includes a logic overcurrent protection.

  • This paper proposes Ethernet linear protection switching technology in order to provide the SONET/SDH-like resiliency over Metro Ethernet Networks. The proposed design is made of an architecture with a control processor board and several data processing boards, where the control processor board is independent of data processing board, providing a flexible solution for carrier Ethernet system. However, it leads an increasing message delay between inter-processors. In this paper, we implement and confirm a restoration of failed transport connections withing 50 millisecond in spite of increasing message delay between the control processing board and data processing board providing carrier-class network survivability.

  • Even though many modular converters have several internal protection circuit blocks for various abnormal operation conditions, there are many failure cases on modular converters at real applications. In this paper, the control strategy for failure protection of converters with internal 'In-Hibit' function is investigated. As an example, for the MDl modular converters the in-hibit function application is realized and the test results shows that adopting in-hibit function while converter switching reduces the voltage and current stress. And the reduction of switching stress on converter will decrease failure rate on converters.

  • A low-cost electronic starter is developed to decrease ignition failure significantly through successive starting trial and to prevent overheating at the end of fluorescent lamp life. Moreover, it has an additional feature of being capable of ignition at the recovered lamp voltage without any circuit correction. The developed electronic starter is consisted of four parts - a half wave rectifier circuit, a timer circuit, a switching circuit and a protection circuit. The protection circuit made up of a transistor and capacitors utilizing capacitive characteristics, carries out successive starting trial and end-of-life protection. Lamp ignition is completed within 0.5 seconds with taking advantage of a high preheating current from the half-wave rectifier circuit. Nevertheless, its performance is proved to be very excellent through a standard switching endurance test.

  • Ethernet ring protection (ERP) technology, which is defined in ITU-T Recommendation G.8032, has been developed to provide carrier grade recovery for Ethernet ring networks. However, the filtering database (FDB) flush method adopted in the current ERP standard has the drawback of introducing a large amount of transient traffic overshoot caused by flooded Ethernet frames right after protection switching. This traffic overshooting is especially critical when a ring provides services to a large number of clients. According to our experimental results, the traditional FDB flush requires a link capacity about sixteen times greater than the steady state traffic bandwidth. This paper introduces four flush optimization schemes to resolve this issue and investigates how the proposed schemes deal with the transient traffic overshoot on a multi-ring network under failure conditions. With a network simulator, we evaluate the performance of the proposed schemes and compare them to the conventional FDB flush scheme. Among the proposed methods, the extended FDB advertisement method shows the fastest and most stable protection switching performance.

  • Multi-domain optical transport networks are not fundamentally interoperable and require an integrated orchestration mechanism and path provision mechanism at the entire network level. In addition, ensuring network survivability is one of the important issues. MPLS-TP (Multi-Protocol Label Switching-Transport Profile) defines various protection/recovery methods as standards, but does not mention how to calculate and select protection/recovery paths. Therefore, an algorithm that minimizes protection/recovery collisions at the optical circuit packet integrated network level and calculates and sets a path that can be rapidly protected/recovered over the entire integrated network area is required. In this paper, we proposed an algorithm that calculates and sets up a path that can be rapidly protected and restored in a T-SDN network composed of multiple ring-mesh topology.

  • The switching device in an inductive circuit is stressed by the over-voltage at the turn-off time. Thus if the peak value of the over-voltage is not properly limited, the switching device may be broken. Therefore, the snubber circuit should be added to protect the switching device from the over-voltage. The circuit designer must be familiar with the design of the snubber This paper tests the possibility that TVS instead of the conventional snubber can be applied to the protection circuit of the switching device without using the complicated design equations, and shows that the rating of TVS can be easily selected by considering only several parameters of TVS. The experimental results show the reduced switching voltage of the switching device at the turn-off time.
