Purpose: After product development, a Reliability Demonstration Test(RDT) is performed to confirm that the target life has been achieved. In the RDT, there are cases where the test equipment cannot accommodate all samples. Therefore, this study considers a test method to most economically demonstrate the target life of the product at a certain confidence level when the sample size is larger than the capacity of the test equipment. Methods: If the sample size is larger than the capacity of the test equipment, test equipments may be added or the test time of individual samples may be increased. So the test method is designed to cover this situation with limited capacity. A zero-failure test method is applied as a test method to RDT. To minimize the cost, the test cost is defined and the cost function is obtained. Finally, we obtain the optimal test plan. Results: A zero-failure test method is designed when the sample size is larger than the capacity of the test equipment, and the expected total cost is derived. In addition, the process of calculating the appropriate sample size, test time, and number of test equipment is illustrated through an example, and the effects of model parameters to the optimal solutions are investigated numerically. Conclusion: In this paper, we study a zero-failure RDT with test equipment that has limited capacity. The expected total cost is derived and the optimal sample size, test time, and number of test equipment are determined to minimize the expected total cost. We also studied numerical examples and for further studies, we can relax some restrictions in the test model and optimize the test method.

In Wyner-Ziv coding, key picture is encoded by conventional H.264/AVC intra coding which has low complexity. Although inter coding is more efficient than intra coding, its complexity is much higher than intra coding due to its motion estimation. Since the main feature of Wyner-Ziv coding is low complexity of encoder, inter coding is not suitable to encode key picture in Wyner-Ziv coding. However, inter picture coding with zero motion vector can be usable for Wyner-Ziv key picture coding instead of intra coding. Moreover, while current transform-domain Wyner-Ziv residual coding only utilizes temporal correlation of WZ picture, if zero motion coding is jointly used to encode key picture in transform-domain Wyner-Ziv residual coding, there will be a significant improvement in R-D performance. Experimental results show that the complexity of Wyner-Ziv coding with the proposed zero motion key picture coding is higher than conventional Wyner-Ziv coding with intra key picture coding by about 9%, however, there are BDBR gains up to 54%. Additionally, if the proposed zero motion key coding is implemented on top of the transform-domain Wyner-Ziv residual coding, the result shows rate gains up to 70% in BDBR compared to conventional Wyner-Ziv coding with intra key picture coding.

Let R be a ring with identity. An ideal N of R is called ideal-symmetric (resp., ideal-reversible) if $ABC{\subseteq}N$ implies $ACB{\subseteq}N$ (resp., $AB{\subseteq}N$ implies $BA{\subseteq}N$) for any ideals A, B, C in R. A ring R is called ideal-symmetric if zero ideal of R is ideal-symmetric. Let S(R) (called the ideal-symmetric radical of R) be the intersection of all ideal-symmetric ideals of R. In this paper, the following are investigated: (1) Some equivalent conditions on an ideal-symmetric ideal of a ring are obtained; (2) Ideal-symmetric property is Morita invariant; (3) For any ring R, we have $S(M_n(R))=M_n(S(R))$ where $M_n(R)$ is the ring of all n by n matrices over R; (4) For a quasi-Baer ring R, R is semiprime if and only if R is ideal-symmetric if and only if R is ideal-reversible.

Let R be a ring with identity. A right ideal ideal I of a ring R is called ref lexive (resp. completely ref lexive) if $aRb{\subseteq}I$ implies that $bRa{\subseteq}I$ (resp. if $ab{\subseteq}I$ implies that $ba{\subseteq}I$) for any $a,\;b{\in}R$. R is called ref lexive (resp. completely ref lexive) if the zero ideal of R is a reflexive ideal (resp. a completely reflexive ideal). Let K(R) (called the ref lexive radical of R) be the intersection of all reflexive ideals of R. In this paper, the following are investigated: (1) Some equivalent conditions on an reflexive ideal of a ring are obtained; (2) reflexive (resp. completely reflexive) property is Morita invariant; (3) For any ring R, we have $K(M_n(R))=M_n(K(R))$ where $M_n(R)$ is the ring of all n by n matrices over R; (4) For a ring R, we have $K(R)[x]{\subseteq}K(R[x])$; in particular, if R is quasi-Armendaritz, then R is reflexive if and only if R[x] is reflexive.

Let M be an R-module, where R is a commutative ring with identity 1 and let G(V,E) be a graph. In this paper, we study the graphs associated with modules over commutative rings. We associate three simple graphs $ann_f({\Gamma}(M_R))$, $ann_s({\Gamma}(M_R))$ and $ann_t({\Gamma}(M_R))$ to M called full annihilating, semi-annihilating and star-annihilating graph. When M is finite over R, we investigate metric dimensions in $ann_f({\Gamma}(M_R))$, $ann_s({\Gamma}(M_R))$ and $ann_t({\Gamma}(M_R))$. We show that M over R is finite if and only if the metric dimension of the graph $ann_f({\Gamma}(M_R))$ is finite. We further show that the graphs $ann_f({\Gamma}(M_R))$, $ann_s({\Gamma}(M_R))$ and $ann_t({\Gamma}(M_R))$ are empty if and only if M is a prime-multiplication-like R-module. We investigate the case when M is a free R-module, where R is an integral domain and show that the graphs $ann_f({\Gamma}(M_R))$, $ann_s({\Gamma}(M_R))$ and $ann_t({\Gamma}(M_R))$ are empty if and only if $$M{\sim_=}R$$. Finally, we characterize all the non-simple weakly virtually divisible modules M for which Ann(M) is a prime ideal and Soc(M) = 0.

Let R be any commutative ring and S be any multiplicative closed set. We introduce an S-version of $\mathcal{F}$-Mittag-Leffler modules, called $\mathcal{F}_{\mathcal{S}}$-Mittag-Leffler modules, and define the projective dimension with respect to these modules. We give some characterizations of $\mathcal{F}_{\mathcal{S}}$-Mittag-Leffler modules, investigate the relationships between $\mathcal{F}$-Mittag-Leffler modules and $\mathcal{F}_{\mathcal{S}}$-Mittag-Leffler modules, and use these relations to describe noetherian rings and coherent rings, such as R is noetherian if and only if $R_S$ is noetherian and every $\mathcal{F}_{\mathcal{S}}$-Mittag-Leffler module is $\mathcal{F}$-Mittag-Leffler. Besides, we also investigate the $\mathcal{M}^{\mathcal{F}_{\mathcal{S}}$-global dimension of R, and prove that $R_S$ is noetherian if and only if its $\mathcal{M}^{\mathcal{F}_{\mathcal{S}}$-global dimension is zero; $R_S$ is coherent if and only if its $\mathcal{M}^{\mathcal{F}_{\mathcal{S}}$-global dimension is at most one.

A current differential relay has been used for transmission line protection. The relay may maloperate in the case of a failure of the secondary circuit of a current transformer (CT) because the differential current is produced. This paper presents an algorithm to detect a failure of a CT using the zero-sequence current. If the magnitude of the zero-sequence current is the same as the magnitude of the current of the other healthy phases, a failure of a CT is detected and then the blocking signal is activated. The proposed algorithm prohibit the maloperation of a differential relay in the case of a CT failure and thus increase the security of the relay.

A phase-shift full-bridge converter is widely used conventional converter. If the input power change in the variation of the output voltage, there is a time interval freewheeling according to a duty change. This is a factor of reducing the efficiency. In this paper, we propose a method for improving the efficiency of the converter/inverter systems that require high efficiency in the ESS. The proposed method was used for the duty control for solving the fail problem ZVS(Zero Voltage Switching) in Freewheeling interval. The proposed method was verified by experiments.

If ranging processes are not frequent in an uplink OFDMA system, the timing synchronization between base and mobile stations may not be maintained. Especially in the case of infrequent random accesses in a large cell, timing offsets can be considerable and the destroyed orthogonality of OFDMA signals may result in the degraded performance. This paper proposes a novel random access scheme for uplink OFDMA systems, which support the orthogonality of OFDMA signals with timing offsets by allowing a random access OFDMA symbol shorter than a normal one. In order to make uplink OFDMA systems robust to timing offsets, the proposed scheme inserts a zero-padding region in an OFDMA symbol.

During seek operation in disk drives, the recording head is moved toward desired track by seek servo controller and then is settled onto the center of the desired track by settling servo controller. If the head speed at the start of settling servo control is not slow, it may produce overshoot relative to the center of track and thus extend the settling time. The degradation in settling performance will be more severe as the track width becomes smaller for higher density of data storage. We design a new settling servo controller for minimizing settling time based on the pole-zero cancellation. In order to cancel slow poles in settling response, we apply discrete pulse signals to the system in addition to the state feedback control. For exact pole-zero cancellation, we consider the dynamics of power amplifier used for actuator current regulation and the effects of delay in control action. In addition, we present system parameter identification algerian for the robustness of our controller to system parameter variation. In order to demonstrate the practical use of our controller, we present experimental results obtained by using a commercially available disk drive.
