This paper proposes the novel control of a static synchronous compensator (STATCOM). This STATCOM system consists of cascade multilevel inverter which employs H-bridge inverter(HBI) The STATCOM system is modeled in the d-q transform matrix. This model is used to design a controller. The selective harmonic elimination method(SHEM) allows to keep the total harmonic distortion (THD) low in the output voltage. The switching method produces the staircase type waveform in cascade multilevel inverter. To balance the DC voltages in HBIs capacitor, the rotated switching scheme is newly proposed in this paper. The proposed control scheme is verified in the simulated results.

High impedance fault (HIF) is defined as fault the general overcurrent relay can not detect or interrupt. Especially when HIF occur in residential areas, energized high voltage conductor results in fire hazard, equiment damage or personal threat. This paper proposes the model of HIF in transmission line using the ZnO arrester and resistance to be implemented within EMTP. Wavelet transform is efficient and useful for the detection of HIF in power system, because it uses variable windows according to frequency. HIF detection method using wavelet transform can distinguish HIF from similar phenomena like arcfurance load, capacitor bank switching and line switching.

In order to achieve low power consumption and the uniform power spectrum of LED BLU (Back Light Unit) system, new circuits with a 2 stage L-C (Inductor-Capacitor) coupler have been proposed. From the simulation results based on our proposed model, the ripple power of the L-C regulation-embedded BLU circuit shows a dramatic reduction by more than 89.3% as compared to the normal BLU (without L-C circuits). This indicates that the proposed circuit is very promising for the realization of high-efficiency BLU circuits.

This paper examines the application of high voltage static var compensator(SVC) with cascade multilevel inverter which employs H-bridge inverter(HBI). To improve the unbalanced problem of the DC capacitor voltages, the rotated switching scheme of fundamental frequency is newly used. The optimized fundamental switching pattern with low switching frequency is adapted to be suitable for high application. The selective harmonic elimination method(SHEM) allows to keep the total harmonic distortion(THD) low in the output voltage of multilevel inverter. The SVC system is modeled using the d-q transform which calculates the instantaneous reactive power. This model is used to design a controller and analyze the SVC system. Simulated and experimental results are also presented and discussed to validate the proposed schemes.

A single phase to three phase power converter with cost effective and simple structure is proposed. The converter consists of rectifier and inverter. The rectifier is composed of a half wave rectifier, a dc link capacitor, and a current limiting inductor, and the inverter is of only two switches with PWM control. For negative sequence operation the inverter output voltage leads the line input by $60^{\circ}$, and for positive sequence operation the inverter output voltage leads by $60^{\circ}$. We can see that positive sequence operation shows higher output voltage, slight harmonic distortion(2%), and better performances such as high efficiency and high power factor. A mathematical model for system analysis is provided, and specifications for selection and control scheme both for start-up and for steady state are analyzed. comparison and operational limits of positive and negative sequence operation are performed, and simulations and experiments are executed to verify the proposed.

Typically, dimensions of the power circuit depend on magnetic components, heat sink, and smoothing capacitor, etc. For the miniaturization of the power circuit, one of the solutions is that bulky magnetic transformer in previously used is replaced by a piezoelectric transformer. Therefore, since many systems are attempted to apply the piezoelectric transformers, a new piezoelectric material is tending to be developed continuously. In this paper, an analysis of neon tube inverters with piezoelectric transformers are presented by Pspice modeling. Simulation results show that it is possible to apply a piezoelectric transformer to neon tube inverters with high conversion efficiency

The present has a double objective. The first one is to compare and estimate sixteen continuous-time methods through the identificatiun of a system consisted with an RLC electrical circuit. These sixteen methods are classified into three groups that are the linear filters, the modulating functions and the integral methods. The second objective is to estimate directly the physical parameters of the RLC circuit, without resorting to a discrete-time model. The system is consisted of a coil with inductance L and resistance H, and of a capacitor with capacitance C. Having written the physical equations which describe the behavior of the system, the transfer function in where the initial conditions appear is given. These initial conditions should be taken into account during the parameter estimation phase, because they are inevitable within the framework of real signals. A physical interpretation of the identified models is tempted by the direct estimation of the physical parameters L and C. In conclusion, a classification of the studied methods is proposed.

This paper deals with a novel shunted actuator, which has a capability to suppress multi-mode vibration amplitudes by using a pair of piezoceramic patches. In order to describe the characteristic behaviors of shunted dampers connected with a series and a parallel resistor-negative capacitive branch circuit, the stiffness ratio and loss factor with respect to the non-dimensional frequency are considered. To obtain a guideline model of a piezo/beam system connected with a series and a parallel resistor-negative capacitor branch circuit, the governing equations of motion is derived through Hamiltons principle and a piezo sensor equation as well as a shunt damping matrix is developed. The theoretical analysis shows that the shunted actuator developed in this study can significantly reduce multiple-mode vibration amplitudes simultaneously over the whole structural frequency range.

In this paper, a new semi-lumped low-pass filter with three finite attenuation poles at stopband is presented. The new structure is composed of a pair of symmetrical parallel coupled-line and a shunted capacitor. With this configuration, three finite attenuation poles can be available for 2nd, 3rd, and 4th harmonics suppression. The research method is based on transmission-line model for tuning the attenuation poles. In order to examine the feasibility of the proposed structure, a low-pass filter based on microstrip structure with harmonics suppression is designed, fabricated, and measured. The experimental results of the fabricated circuit agree well with the simulation and analytical ones.

In this paper, a pre-layout design approach for high-speed microprocessor is proposed. For multilayer PCB stark up configuration as well as selection and placement of decoupling capacitors, an effective solution for reducing SSN and EMI is obtained by modeling and simulation of complete power distribution system. The system model includes VRM, decoupling capacitors, multiple power and ground planes for core voltage, vias, as well as microprocessor. Finally, the simulation results are verified by measurements data.
