Air core based transformers have been designed, simulated and fabricated by using micromachining process for the application of wireless power transmission with the range of frequency from 1 GHz to 20 GHz. Fabricated transformers are the types of solenoid transformers with primary and secondary coils. the size of fabricated transformer is $1.1{\times}1.5{\sim}2.15\;mm$ including ground shield. Transformers have been measured by dividing two groups based on the turns ratio between primary coil and secondary coil which are 1:1 transformers(the number of turns of primary coil and secondary coil: 3/3, 5/5, 7/7) and l:n transformers(the number of turns of primary coil and secondary coil: 3/3, 3/6, 3/9). As a result of the measurement, the lowest insertion loss of transformers ranged from 2 dB to 2.8 dB according to the number of turns between primary coil and secondary coil. And the lowest insertion loss from the transformers was measured at the frequency from 7 GHz to 11 GHz according to the number of turns between primary coil and secondary coil. Based on the measurement data from the microfabricated transformers, the transformer with the 3/3 turns in the primary coil and secondary coil showed best performance compared to others in terms of lowest insertion loss, lowest insertion loss frequency and bandwidth.

In various types of large-scale electrical applications, the number of coil turns in such machines is usually large. Electromagnetic simulation of large-scale superconducting coils (tens to hundreds of turns) is indispensable in the design process of superconducting electrical equipment. However, due to the large scale of the coil and the large aspect ratio of super-conducting material layer in HTS coated conductor, it is usually difficult or even unable to perform 3-D transient electromagnetic simulation. This paper introduces an effective 3-D electromagnetic simulation method for large-scale HTS coated conductor coil based on T-A formulation. The simulation and experimental results show that the 3-D model based on the T-A formulation using homogeneous strategy is more accurate than the traditional 2-D models. The memory usage is not sensitive to the number of turns and this model will be even more superior as the number of turns becomes larger.

This paper proposes a tree-winding transformer protective relaying algorithm based on the ratio of increment of flux linkages (RIFL). The RIFL of the two windings is equal to the turns ratio for all operating conditions except an internal faults. For a single-phase transformer and three-phase transformer containing the wye-connected windings, the increments of flux linkages are calculated. for a three-phase transformer containing the delta-connected windings, the difference of the increments of flux linkages between the two phases are calculated using the line currents, because the winding currents are practically unavailable. Their ratios are compared with the turns ratio. The results of various tests show that the algorithm successfully discriminates internal faults from normal operation conditions such as magnetic inrush, overexcitation and external faults. The algorithm can not only detect internal winding faults, but reduce the operating time of a relay.

In this paper, we studied a accuracy for CT using elastic epoxy. According to industry development, the quality where also the electric material is various is demanded. Insulation material is widely used because epoxy is superior to electrical and mechanical property. Until now, the possibility where the crack will occur is high because epoxy used to electrical products had high hardness. If thermal expansion is different of two material, contraction of epoxy heavily transformed turns ratio of CT Elastic epoxy absorbed in expansion and contraction of substance material by temperature. So we could design more exacted CT We had elastic test of elastic epoxy and made CT using elastic epoxy. At the result, We obtained turns ratio of within 4% superior to existing CT.

We present high aspect ratio air-core solenoid inductors with $100{\mu}m\;and\;200{\mu}m$ tall via structures on Pyrex wafer. The effect of various parameters such as different number of turns, via heights, pitch distance between turns on inductor's radio frequency (RF) characteristics have been studied. The highest Q factor we obtained from various solenoid inductors is 72.8 at 9.7 GHz, which was produced by a 3-turn inductor.

In this paper, a soft switching DC-DC converter for AC module type photovoltaic (PV) module integrated converter is proposed. A push-pull converter is suitable for a low voltage PV AC module system because the step-up ratio of a high frequency transformer is high and the number of primary side switches is relatively small. However, the conventional push-pull converters do not have high efficiency because of high switching losses by hard switching and transformer losses (copper and iron losses) by high turns-ratio of the transformer. In the proposed converter, primary side switches are turned on at zero voltage switching (ZCS) condition and turned off at zero current switching (ZVS) condition through parallel resonance between secondary leakage inductance of the transformer and a resonant capacitor. Therefore the proposed push-pull converter decreases the switching loss using soft switching of the primary switches. Also, the turns-ratio of the transformer can be reduced by half using a voltage-doubler of secondary side. The theoretical analysis of the proposed converter is verified by simulation and experimental results.

This paper suggests the condensed two-stage retrieval method for fast image retrieval in the content-based image retrieval system, and proves the validity of the performance. The condensed two-stage retrieval method reduces the overall response time remarkably while it maintains relevance with the conventional exhaustive search method. It is explained by properties of the Cauchy-Schwartz inequality. In experimental result, it turns out that there is an optimal value of condensation ratio which minimizes the overall response time. We analyze the optimal condensation ratio by modeling a similarity computation time mathematically.

In this paper, we develop the noninformative priors for the linear mixed models when the parameter of interest is the ratio of variance components. We developed the first and second order matching priors. We reveal that the one-at-a-time reference prior satisfies the second order matching criterion. It turns out that the two group reference prior satisfies a first order matching criterion, but Jeffreys' prior is not first order matching prior. Some simulation study is performed.

Recently as the electronic devices are getting to be more and more smaller, transformers are needed to be micro fabricated using MEMS technology. In this paper transformers have been fabricated and measured by depositing insulation layer to reduce the loss of eddy current and in the middle core a high permeability permalloy was designed based on the turns ratio between primary coil and secondary coil which are 1:1 transformers. (the number of turns of primary coil and secondary coil: 3/3, 5/5, 7/7). The size of the transformers including ground shield are $1mm{\times}1.5mm$, $1mm{\times}1.95mm$, $1mm{\times}2.35mm$ respectively. The line width, pitch and the height of post are 50um. Based on the measured data from the micro fabricated transformers, the 3/3 turns in the primary coil and secondary coil showed the lowest insertion loss with 1.5 dB at 480 MHz and the 7/7 turns in the primary coil and secondary coil showed the highest insertion loss with 2.5 dB at 280 MHz. Also confirmed that the bandwidth goes up as the number of turns goes down. There was some difference between the actual measured data and the HFSS simulation result. It looks as if it is an error of the difference between oxidation of copper or the permeability of SU-8.
