Design of single state AC-DC converter with high power factor for low level applications is proposed. The proposed converter is obtained from the integration of a buck-boost converter and the half-bridge DC-DC converter. This converter gives the good power factor correction low line current harmonic distortions and tight output voltage regulations. This converter also has a high efficiency by employing an soft switching method and synchronous rectifier. The modelling and detailed analysis for the proposed converter are performed. To verify the performance of the proposed converter a 100W converter has been designed

Recently, new power devices, SiC and GaN FETs, are commercialized. They are expected to change power electronics environments. They will raise operating frequencies of power electronic equipments. Accordingly, design method will be changed greatly. In this paper, an 1 MHz resonant converter with fully compensated coreless isolation transformer is proposed, where the primary voltage is proportional to the secondary current and the primary current to the secondary voltage. 30 W prototype is constructed and tested, and its usefulness is verified.

To improve the current waveform of diode rectifiers, we propose a new operating principle of the voltage diode rectifiers. In the conventional voltage rectifier circuit, relatively large capacitors are used to boost the output voltage, while the proposed circuit uses ones and a small reactor not boost the output voltage but improve the input current waveform. A circuit design method is shown and confirmed simulation. It explained that compared conventional PWM(Pulse-width modulated)inverter with HPWM(Half Pulse-width modulated)inverter. Proposed HPWM inverter eliminated dead-time by lowering switching loss and holding over-shooting. Output voltage and current of this paper were applied for real air-conditioner.

This paper proposes a two-phase interleaved bridgeless single-stage ac-dc converter with magnetic integration that can achieve CCM power factor correction without input current sensing. All switches achieve ZVS turn-on and all diodes achieve ZCS turn-on for the whole grid cycle. SDAB-based modulation strategy is applied which results in simple power control and wide range output voltage. A flux cancellation method to integrate the interleaved transformer is firstly proposed in this paper to reduce the core size and loss. Experimental results on a 1.7-kW, 50kHz prototype are given to verify the principle and advantages of the proposed ac-dc converter.

In this paper, the problem of electromagnetic transmission through slits in two parallel conducting plates which separate two half spaces is considered. The coupled integral equations for the electric field distributions over the slits are developed for the case that the TM polarized plane wave is incident on the slit and solved by the method of moments. The transmitted power beyond the slit-perforated conducting parallel plates is computed in order to check the variations of the coupled power through slits against some parameters such as the incident angle of the TM polarized wave, slit width, lateral distance between two slits, and distance between the conducting plates. When the lateral distance between two slits approaches near the multiples of half wavelengths, the transmission resonance (maximum power transmission) is observed. If the slit width in the incident side is narrow and the distance between conducting plates is small compared to the wavelength, the maximum of transmitted power is observed to be nearly independent of the incident angle and slit width. In addition, the mechanism of the transmission resonance in the present geometry is explained using a simplified geometry and its equivalent circuit.

With the rapid growth of power system capacity, fault current levels approach the maximum capacity of circuit breakers. In this paper, a superconducting current limiter (SCL) is proposed to reduce the fault current to an appropriate level. Superconductor for SCL has been examined and design criterion of each triggering method has been shown. Thin film SCL has been fabricated and switching characteristics are shown, where thermal and current triggering methods are adopted. Experimental result shows that fault current is reduced to one-half.

Complex resonant frequency of on a uniaxial substrate with a superstrate-loaded microstrip structure is investigate. The study is performed by Galerkin’s method. The numerical convergence using sinusoidal basis function. Numerical results for the effects of anisotropy in the substrate, superstrate permittivity, in the complex resonant frequency of the rectangular microstrip structure are also presented. Half-power bandwidth are increased due to the positive uniaxial an isotropy and superstrate.

Exactly aclculated antenna factors are requeired for determining EMI levels in an actual radiated emission test. In this paper, the antenna factors of short dipole antennas above the ground plane are calculated theoretically for the antenna with Roberts balun specified ANSI C63.5 regulation. Also treated is a half-wavelength dipole antenna with Roberts balun to compare the antenna factors with those of resonant dipole antenna. In formulationof antenna factors the antenna is treated as the boundary value problem of Maxwells equations and is analyzed by the Galerkins method of moments. The balun is treated using circuit theory based on power transmission mismatch.

The test method of ASTM E 756 and JIS G 0602 to estimate vibration-damping properties is presented. Measurement method depending on specimen support, exciting method and calculation method for loss factor is used. Half-power bandwidth method and vibration decay method is used in the calculation method for loss factor, and Young's modulus is decided by geometric character and density for specimen and resonance frequency. Vibration measurement sensor is compared by using non-contact displacement detector, velocity detector and accelerometer. The cause of measurement error is also presented.
