This paper describes dual inverter drive for a fractional-slot concentrated winding permanent magnet synchronous machine (PMSM). PMSMs are widely used in many applications from small servo motors to few megawatts generators thanks to its high efficiency and torque density. Especially, fractional-slot concentrated winding PMSM is very popular in the applications where wide operation range is required because it shows very wide constant power speed ratios. High speed operation, however, requires lots of negative daxis current for reducing back-EMF regardless of output torque. Field weakening current does not contribute to the torque generation in surface mounted PMSM case and causes inverter and copper loss. To reduce the losses from field weakening current, this paper proposes PMSM with split stator and parallel dual inverter drive. Proposed parallel dual inverter drive reduces back-EMF and enables efficient drive at high speed and light load situation. Control strategy of proposed dual inverter system is established through loss analysis and simulation. Proposed concept is verified with practical experiment.

There are many types of circularly polarized(CP) microstrip antenna elements, which are used as a good unit radiator. Since an advantage of CP antenna is no strict alignment requirements between Rx and Tx system, the printed antennas with circular polarization are very often used in numerous satellite and mobile radio systems. In order to realize the broad bandwidth of 3 dB axial ratio and impedance of CP microstrip antenna, complex feed structure and tri-plate patch element have been researched. This paper describes a design of wideband microstrip cross slot array antennas with circular polarization. The proposed antenna is composed of an open-ended microstrip feed line as a feeder and a cross slot as a radiator for circular polarization. To realize the wide bandwidth, tri-plate structure are considered and cross slot is electromagnetically coupled with feed line. Optimum parameters of 1-element cross slot antenna are analyzed and designed by method of moments. These parameters are also applied to may antennas design considered the mutual coupling between radiating elements. Right hand circular polarization(RHCP) and left hand circular polarization(LHCP) of the proposed antenna are easily controlled by asymmetrical cross slot structure and slot position. In 1-element and 15-element cross slot array antenna, the good axial ratio of 1 dB below and the broad bandwidth characteristics of antenna are obtained.

Recently, a brain imaging system with microwave devices has been proposed. The brain imaging system requires a small antenna which has ultra wide band(UWB) operating frequency bandwidth(0.5~2 GHz) and non-varying boresight of antenna over the frequency band. This paper proposes asymmetric corrugations on a tapered slot antenna (TSA) so that the size of the TSA is reduced by 14 % while 10 dB return loss bandwidth is satisfied over the operating frequency band from 0.5 GHz to 2 GHz. A miniaturized TSA with symmetric corrugations shows tilted boresight whilst frequency is getting lower; however, the proposed TSA with asymmetric corrugations maintains direction of boresight for different frequencies. This enhancements make an asymmetric corrugated TSA meet the requirement of the brain imaing system.

In this paper, a CPW band-pass filter with a rejection band is proposed for UWB(Ultra-Wideband) communication systems. The proposed filter has a band-pass characteristic of wide-band by inserting only a slot in $50{\Omega}$ transmission line. To obtain the band-rejection function at WLAN frequency band($5.15{\sim}5.725GHz$), the designed filter is combined with folded slot resonators on the ground plane of the CPW structure. The fabricated CPW band-pass filter shows a compact size of $15.35{\times}13.60mm$, a wide passband of 2.8 GHz to 9.8 GHz and the narrow stop-band of 5.15 GHz to 5.71 GHz for 3-dB bandwidth. Also, the measured group delay is less than 400 psec throughout the operation frequency band except the rejection band.

Slot coating has been wide spread in photo-resist coating on the glass for liquid crystal display. Die in slot coater consists of manifold and land. Material comes in inlet of the die and flow into the manifold and then flow out through the land. The coating thickness variations along the die length depend upon inside of die design such as manifold and die land. However the coating thickness variations along the moving direction(coating direction) of the coater depend upon the operational conditions of coater as well as die lip design. The coating behaviors including atmospheric air have been investigated in this study. Die geometries considered in this study were nozzle gap and length of the die lip. Coating gap and coating speed were the variables fur coating operational conditions. When the nozzle gap and length of die lip increased climbing effect of PR on the downstream die lip was reduced. Subsequently uniformity of coating thickness improved. Uniformity of coating thickness also enhanced as coating gap and coater speed increased. The uniformity of coating gap was related to the velocity vector distributions on the coating surface.

By using a slot-line in combination with microstrip lines, a coplanar wide-band balun is designed and fabricated. The slot-line of balun junction is compensated to be operated in C-band(4~8GHz), and therefore the results are agreement with theoritical prediction. Experimental data are given for a 3-section Chebyshev transformer-matched balun with a balanced-to-unbalanced line impedance ratio of 2 : 1. A bandwidth from 3.5GHz to 7.0GHz is obtained with V.S.W.R. of below 1.2 : 1. Maximum insertion loss is measured as 0.9dB, and the phase difference varies linearlly within 180$^{\circ}$$\pm$5$^{\circ}$.

Interior Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor(IPMSM) have many advantages such as high power density, wide speed range and so on. With the IPMSM, miniaturization and energy efficient design can be achieved in comparison with Surface Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor(SPMSM). In order to secure miniaturization and manufacturing efficiency of the motor, it has concentrated winding, because concentrated winding can reduce the motor volume and make manufacturing to be simple compared with the distributed winding. However, according to the pole-slot combinations motor parameters can be changed and unexpected normal force can be generated. Especially, unbalanced normal force in airgap can cause serious vibration and acoustic problem. Accordingly, in this paper, normal force and parameters variation of concentrated winding IPMSM are investigated according to the pole-slot combinations.
