The use of digital filters in the signal process field is increasing rapidly with development of the modern industrial society. Especially, detail processors, Y/C separators, ghost removing filters, standard converters (NTSC to PAL or PAL to NTSC) and noise reducers, all of which use digital filters, tend to be used in digital video and audio processing, CATV and various communication fields. Generally, there are two different digital filters, the Rf (infinite impulse response) filter and the FIR (finite impulse response) filter in digital filter. In this paper, we have designed FIR filter which has the phase linearity and the easiness of creation. In the design of the FIR digital filter, the window function is used to alleviate the ripples caused by Gibbs Phenomenon around the cut off frequency of the band pass. But there're some problems to choose proper window function for the design destination due to its fixed values. Therefore, in this paper, we designed a modified Hanning window with new parameter which is adaptively chosen corresponding to design objectives. The digital filter was simulated to prove the validity of the model and it was compared with the Hamming, the Manning, the Blacknan and the Kaiser window function. And we have used peak side-lobe and transient characteristics as standard of judgement.

Thin-film chromel-alumel multijunction thermal converters with a low output resistance of $64{\sim}85\;{\Omega}$ showed approximately the square law-dependent input-output relation. The voltage responsivities were very low with $0.34{\sim}0.67\;V/W$ in air and $1.15{\sim}1.48\;V/W$ in vacuum, respectively, and the ac-dc voltage transfer error was very large with about +340 ppm in the frequency range of $40\;Hz{\sim}10\;kHz$ in the case of 1 V-input sinewave rms voltage. It can be concluded that the large transfer error of the thermal converter was mainly caused by the low voltage responsivity and the large heat loss due to low output resistance, which implies that the optimization for small ac-dc transfer error is required.

DC/DC switching power converters are commonly used to generate a regulated DC output voltage with high efficiency. The advanced DC/DC converter uses a PWM-IC with OP-Amp. (Operational Amplifier) to control a MOSFET (metal-oxide semiconductor field effect transistor), which is a switching component, efficiently. In this paper, it is shown that the electrical characteristics of OP-Amp. are affected by radiations of ${\gamma}$ rays using $^{60}Co$ for TID (Total Ionizing Dose) testing and 5 heavy ions for SEL (Single Event Latch-up) testing. TID testing on OP-Amp. is accomplished up to the total dose of 30 krad, and the cross section($cm^2$) versus LET($MeV/mg/cm^2$) in the OP-Amp. operation is evaluated SEL testing after implementation of the controller board.

The purpose of this research was to investigate the difference in fabric preference of formal wear attire between the Korean and American female consumers. For such purpose, fabrics which were used in the womens formal wear market of Korean(n=25) and U.S.A.(n=25) in the 1999 spring/summer season were collected from different fabric converters of the two countries. The respondents were comprised of 50 Korean and 50 U.S.A. female volunteers in the age group of 20s and 40s. A 5 point Likert Scale was used to evaluate the degree of the \"like\" preference of fabrics. T-test and Spearmans rho statistics were conducted for data analysis. The followings are the results. 1. Korean 20s and American 20s preferred Korean fabrics but Korean 40s and American 40s preferred U.S.A. fabrics. 2. Generally, the 20s preferred greyish or tone down color, whereas the 40s preferred both greyish and colorful fabrics. 3. Koreans preferred melange colored fabrics as well as solid color fabrics. 4. Americans liked knit fabrics as well as woven fabrics for formal wear and 20s liked compact density fabrics compared to the 40s age group.age group.

In this paper, a novel approach to using Subcircuit of Pspice in designing feedback for DC-DC converter systems is proposed. Proposed new approach, the feedback design procedures which are based on small signal modeling are programmed as a subcircuit in Pspice. For this purpose, Analog Behavioral Modeling (ABM) is used. By using the subcircuit, the component values of the error compensation amplifier can be easily obtained by means of Pspice DC analysis. The methodology of development is presented in detail and application examples demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed approach in designing feedbacks for DC-DC converters. The converter with PWM method used continuous current mode and calculated buck converter control signal with average and linear current technique. To decide pole and zero K-method was adapted and this kind of design procedure took stable function.

Development of the distributed energy resources such as photovoltaic, wind, and fuel cell has increased rapidly due to the rising demand for clean energy utilization. On the other hand, the distribution system became complex and has problems such as degradation of power factor and current unbalance caused by power converters, reactive power and unbalanced loads. To solve these problems, this paper proposes a 3-phase 4-leg type power conditioning system with compensation control algorithm for the reactive power and unbalance current in distribution system using photovoltaic resource. It is simulated in PSCAD/EMTDC and the effectiveness is confirmed.

Many kinds of high temperature superconducting (HTS) devices are being developed due to its several advantages. In particular, the advantages of HTS devices are maximized under the DC condition. A line commutated converter (LCC) type high voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission system requires large capacity of DC reactors to protect the converters from faults. However, conventional DC reactor made of copper causes a lot of electrical losses. Thus, it is being attempted to apply the HTS DC reactor to an HVDC transmission system. The authors have developed a 8 mH class HTS DC reactor and a model-sized LCC type HVDC system. The HTS DC reactor was operated to analyze its operational characteristics in connection with the HVDC system. The voltage at both ends of the HTS DC reactor was measured to investigate the stability of the reactor. The voltages and currents at the AC and DC side of the system were measured to confirm the influence of the HTS DC reactor on the system. Two 5 mH copper DC reactors were connected to the HVDC system and investigated to compare the operational characteristics. In this paper, the operational characteristics of the HVDC system with the HTS DC reactor according to firing angle are described. The voltage and current characteristics of the system according to the types of DC reactors and harmonic characteristics are analyzed. Through the results, the applicability of an HTS DC reactor in an HVDC system is confirmed.

In this paper, we present a new analytical model that can precisely estimate the blocking performance of wavelength-routed WDM networks with sparse-partial-limited wavelength conversion (SPLWC). The proposed model accounts for the two sources of call blocking in a wavelength converter: range blocking originated from the limited conversion range of a wavelength converter; and capacity blocking induced from the limited number of wavelength converters. Based on the proposed model, we also present a new converter placement algorithm that minimizes the amount of wavelength conversion capability, while satisfying the given constraint on the network-wide blocking probability. From the numerical results obtained from the EON, we demonstrate that the blocking probability of the analytical model closely matches with that of the simulation. We also show that, by efficiently combining the existing sparse, partial, and limited wavelength conversion, the SPL WC can achieve the required blocking performance with the least amount of wavelength conversion cost.

There have been many studies about the chemical corrosion of converter's refractories. However, few studies have been reported for the stress corrosion induced by the weight of the refractories and by the two bottom shape models designed for the converter. In this study, the stress distributions of the two converter models were analyzed by FEM. Model 1 has the step edge shape and model 2 has the round edge shape. Simulation results show that model 2 of round bottom edge has higher gravitational stress just below the slag line than the model 1. Model 2 is considered to suffers more serious corrosion than model 1 during the middle working stage by the thermal and chemical factors.

In this paper, modifying the diode star double balanced mixer of Maas, a novel resistive 60 GHz pHEMT MMIC star mixer is suggested. Due to star configuration, troublesome IF balun for ring configuration FET mixer is not necessary. In addition, the sysematic design method of dual balun through EM simulation is suggested rather than the design by inspection as Maas. The mixer circuit is fabricated as MMIC on CPW base using 0.1 um GaAs pHEMT Library of MINT in Dongguk University. The size is 1.5 ${\times}$ 1.5 $\textrm{mm}^2$ and its performance is adjustable by DC supply. It can be operated as both up and down converters and it shows the conversion loss of about 13∼18 ㏈ over the full V-band frequencies.
