In application of high power IGBT PWM inverters, the treatable power range is considerably limited due to the overvoltage caused by the stray inductance components within the power circuit. This paper proposes a new gate drive circuit for IGBTs which can actively suppress the overvoltage across the driven IGBT at turn-off and the overvoltage across the opposite IGBT at turn-on while preserving the most simple and reliable power circuit. The turn-off driving scheme has adaptive feature to the amplitude of collector current, so that the overvoltage is limited much effectively at the larger collector current. The turn-on scheme is to decrease the rising rate of the collector current by increasing input capacitance during turn-on transient when the gate-emitter voltage is greater than threshold voltage. The experimental results under various normal and fault conditions prove the effectiveness of the proposed circuit.

Asynchronous phenomenon occurs on the synchronous generators under power system when a generator's amplitude of electromagnetic force, phase angle, frequency and waveform etc become different from those of other synchronous generators which can follow instantly varying speed of turbine. Because the amplitude of electromagnetic force, phase frequency and waveform differ from those of other generators with which are to be put into parallel operation due to the change of excitation condition for load sharing and the sharing load change, if reactive current in the internal circuit circulates among generators, the efficiency varies and the stator winding of generators are overheated by resistance loss. When calculation method of protection settings and logic for protection of generator asynchronization will be recommended, a distance relay scheme is commonly used for backup protection. This scheme, called a step distance protection, is comprised of 3 steps for graded zones having different operating time. As for the conventional step distance protection scheme, zone 2 can exceed the ordinary coverage excessively in case of a transformer protection relay especially. In this case, there can be overlapped protection area from a backup protection relay and, therefore, malfunctions can occur when any fault occurs in the overlapped protection area. Distance relays and overcurrent relays are used for backup protection generally, and both relays have normally this problem, the maloperation, caused by a fault in the overlapped protection area. Corresponding to an IEEE standard, this problem can be solved with the modification of the operating time. On the other hand, in Korea, zones are modified to cope with this problem in some specific conditions. These two methods may not be obvious to handle this problem correctly because these methods, modifying the common rules, can cause another coordination problem. To overcome asynchronizing protection, this paper describes an improved backup protection coordination scheme using a new logic that will be suggested.

본 논문에서는 대표적인 ESD 보호소자인 LVTSCR의 구조적 변화를 통해 높은 홀딩전압 특성을 가지는 ESD 보호소자를 제안한다. 제안된 ESD 보호소자는 병렬 PNP path와 긴 N+ drift 영역을 삽입하여 기존의 LVTSCR보다 높은 홀딩전압을 가지며, 일반적인 SCR 기반 ESD보호소자의 단점인 Latch-up 면역특성을 향상시킨다. 또한 기생 BJT들의 유효 베이스 폭을 설계변수로 설정하였으며, N-Stack 기술을 적용하여 요구되는 application에 적용할 수 있도록 시놉시스사의 TCAD 시뮬레이션을 통해 제안된 ESD 보호소자의 전기적 특성을 검증하였다.

Proper management on user-driven virtual circuits (VCs) is essential for seamless operation of virtual networks. The Network Provisioning System (NPS) is useful software for creating user-driven VCs automatically and must take fault management into account for physical layer impairments on user-driven VCs. This paper addresses a user-driven and trusty protection management in an NPS with an open standard Network Service Interface (NSI), as a contribution to show how to implement the user-driven and trusty protection management required for user-driven VCs. In particular, it provides a RESTful web service Interface for Configuration and Event management (RICE) that enable management of a distinguished data and control plane VC status between Network Service Agents (NSAs) in the event of a node or link fault and repair in a domain. This capability represents a contribution to show how network and protection events in a domain can be monitored between NSAs (NPSs with the NSI) in multiple domains. The implemented NPS controls and manages both the primary and backup VC with disjoint path in a user-driven manner. A demonstration to verify RICE API's capability is addressed for the trusty protection in the dynamic VC network.

본 연구에서는 방사선/능의 측정을 위하여 감응 면적이 큰 다중선 비례계수기를 양극선의 지름과 재칠 그리고 선공간을 고려하여 설계 제작하였다. 또한 비례계수기에서 출력하는 펄스를 측정하기 위하여 검출기와 주증폭기 또는 카운터 사이에 연결하는 전치증폭기를 설계 제작하였다. 본 전치증폭기는 전하감응 미분회로, 클리핑회로 그리고 증폭회로로 구성하였다. 이들에 대한 성능시험을 위하여 $^{239}Pu(360Bq)$와 $^{90}Sr/^{90}Y(250Bq)$의 방사선원을 사용하여 동작전압을 결정한 다음 전치증폭기로부터의 최종 출력펄스 $V_2(t)$를 측정하여 출력펄스에 포함되어 계수시에 영향을 미치는 잡음성분과 비교하였다. 잡음성분은 8mV로 조사선원 각각에 의한 출력펄스 180mV와 200 mV 보다 상당히 작아 계수시 이에 대한 영향은 없었다. 전하감응 미분회로의 출력펄스에서 발생된 중첩펄스는 클리핑 회로와 증폭회로에서 시정수와 증폭도를 변화시키므로서 독립된 펄스로 측정하였으며, 이로 인한 측정손실을 개선할 수 있었다.

Lightning has a broad frequency spectrum from DC to a few MHz. Consequently, the high frequency performance of grounding systems for protection against lightning should be evaluated, with the distributed parameter circuit model in a uniform soil being used to simulate grounding impedances. This paper proposes a simulation method which applies the distributed parameter circuit model for the frequency-dependent impedance of vertically driven ground rods by considering multi-layered soil structures where ground rods are buried. The Matlab program was used to calculate the frequency-dependent ground impedances for two ground rods of different lengths. As a result, an increase of the length of ground rod is not always followed by a decrease of grounding impedance, at least at a high frequency. The results obtained using the newly proposed simulation method considering multi-layered soil structures are in good agreement with the measured results.

A low-cost current-sensing scheme for the motor drives with MOSFET is described. Many motor drives usually employ the common current sensors to measure current for the purpose of control or protection. These current sensors, however, significantly burden the power circuit with the size and cost. The proposed current-sensing scheme utilizes information concerning MOSFET's On-voltage and On-resistance. An analogue circuit detecting On-voltage can overcome the above disadvantages because the circuit is small and is made at a low cost, and the fuzzy inference for On-resistance is also simply designed based on MOSFET's characteristics. The validity of this scheme will be experimentally verified by adopting the current control of a battery car.

As the increasing of capacity and technology of power facilities, rotating machines such as turbine generators and water turbines are getting higher at capacity but smaller in size. Thus the monitoring and diagnosis of generators for fault detection and protection has attracted intensive interest. Most of electrical faults of rotating machines appear in their windings. In case of an after-fault in high capacity rotating machines, the recovering cost is usually very expensive and additional time is necessary for returning in a normal situation. In this paper, the magnetic flux patterns in air-gap of a generator under various fault states as well as a normal state are simulated by a conventional FEM tool. These results are successfully applied to detection and diagnosis of the short-circuit condition in rotor windings of a high capacity generator.
