A new multi-step voltage source inverter is proposed in this paper. The proposed scheme is composed of the double-connected 12-step inverter with an auxiliary circuit. The auxiliary circuit includes two voltage dividing capacitors, two switching devices and a low KVA autotransformer. The resultant system is shown to be a 24-step inverter suitable for large scale SVC applications in which the PWM method can not be employed. The design parameters are derived from the analysis of voltages and currents by means of switching functions. The simulation results verify the proposed concept.

This paper deals with the computation error produced in the time step analysis for a electric machine with eddy current. To investigate the error in quantity, the analytic equations representing the steady state results of time-step analysis are deduced. Using the equations, the characteristics of errors are calculated for a general electric circuit, with variation of the circuit parameters and step size.

This paper proposes an infeasible interior-point algorithm with full-Newton step for linear programming. We introduce a special self-regular proximity to induce the feasibility step and also to measure proximity to the central path. The result of polynomial complexity coincides with the best-known iteration bound for infeasible interior-point methods, namely, O(n log n/${\varepsilon}$).

In order to overcome the students' lack of information and experience, we developed a content planning tree that utilizes a decision tree. The content planning tree consists of a tree trunk creation step in which students select a theme and a story to develop, a parent branch generation step for selecting a category that can be developed based on the story, a child branch generation step for selecting the interesting "effect" method of producing the content effectively, a leaf generation step for selecting a multimedia expression 'element' to be visualized. The educational model was applied to game planning design and information visualization lectures, and provides examples of the categories, effects, and elements used in each lecture. The model was used for 145 team projects and the efficiency was confirmed by a step-by-step learning process.

Energy of wheeled mobile robot is usually supplied by batteries. In order to extend operation time of mobile robots, it is necessary to minimize the energy consumption. The energy is dissipated mostly in the motors, which strongly depends on the velocity profile. This paper investigates various 3-step (acceleration - cruise - deceleration) speed control methods to minimize a new energy object function which considers the practical energy consumption dissipated in motors related to motor control input, velocity profile, and motor dynamics. We performed an analysis on the energy consumption various velocity profile patterns generated by standard control input such as step input, ramp input, parabolic input, and exponential input. Based on these standard control inputs, we analyzed the six 3-step velocity profile patterns: E-C-E, P-C-P, R-C-R, S-C-S, R-C-S, and S-C-R (S means a step control input, R means a ramp control input, P means a parabolic control input, and E means an exponential control input, C means a constant cruise velocity), and suggested an efficient iterative search algorithm with binary search which can find the numerical solution quickly. We performed various computer simulations to show the performance of the energy-optimal 3-step speed control in comparison with a conventional 3-step speed control with a reasonable constant acceleration as a benchmark. Simulation results show that the E-C-E is the most energy efficient 3-step velocity profile pattern, which enables wheeled mobile robot to extend working time up to 50%.

In this paper, a step type driver dipole antenna with a tapered balance and unbalance (balun) by a coplanar waveguide (CPW) to coplanar strip (CPS) transition is proposed. The proposed antenna consisted of step type driver, a CPW to CPS transition and tapered balun. The proposed antenna is realized the multi and wide resonate frequency band to introduce the step type driver and tapered balun. The step type driver is acted as a director too. This antenna could be more easily designed than the conventional printed quasi-Yagi dipole antenna. The operating frequency bandwidth was 650 [MHz] (2.65~3.3 GHz), 900 [MHz] (4.7~5.6 GHz) under a return-loss criterion of less than 10 dB. The measurements of the proposed antenna exhibited good results in the wideband operating frequency and radiation pattern. The proposed antenna can support wireless communications applications.

In this paper, a three-phase AC-DC high step-up converter is developed for application to microscale wind-power generation systems. Such an AC-DC boost converter prossessess the property of the single-switch high step-up DC-DC structure. For power factor correction, the advanced half-stage converter is operated under the discontinuous conduction mode (DCM). Simulatanously, to achieve a high step-up voltage gain, the back half-stage functions in the continuous conduction mode (CCM). A high voltage gain can be obtained by use of an output-capacitor mass and a coupled inductor. Compared to the output voltage, the voltage stress is decreased on the switch. To lessen the conducting losses, a low rated voltage and small conductive resistance MOSFETs are adopted. In addition, the coupled inductor retrieves the leakage-inductor energy. The operation principle and steady-state behavior are analyzed, and a prototype hardware circuit is realized to verify the performance of the proposed converter.

Step discontinuities of microstrip lines are analyzed using the mode-matching technique based on the well-known waveguide model. Including higher-order modes, the generalized scattering matrices are obtained. Asymmetrical step discontinuities as well as symmetrical step discontinuities are analyzed. The resonance characteristics of microstrip patches are calculated by cascading two microstrip step discontinuities through a uniform microstrip line. Experimental results agree well with theroretical ones.

STEP AP224 includes the information of machining feature and tolerances. Machining features are machined from raw material. Tolerance constrain feasible methods of manufacture, strongly influence the cost of manufacture. And tolerances influence the machining process. We need to decide the precedence between features .tool radius and tool direction for minimum tool changes. This paper deals with the method of decision of precedence between features and process parameters using feature information and tolerances in STEP AP224.
