This paper proposes a novel asymmetrical interior permanent magnet (IPM) brushless DC (BLDC) motor structure, which utilizes half-type permanent magnet (PM) configuration and has asymmetrical side gaps (slot next to the PMs) for reducing torque ripples. This structure uses 24% less volume of PMs than conventional IPM BLDC motor with a full set of magnets. The characteristics of the proposed motor are compared with three other half-type IPM BLDC motors through finite elements method (FEM) analysis, and the usefulness of the proposed motor was verified through experimental evaluation on prototypes of the conventional motor and proposed motor under various torque load conditions. This research obtained a high-performance IPM BLDC motor while decreasing manufacturing cost at the same time.

최근 스마트 카드와 같은 정보보호 장치에 대한 물리적 공격 중 소비 전력 분석을 통해 비밀키를 알아내는 전력분석 공격이 위협적이다. 본 논문에서는 전력분석 공격 중 단순 전력분석(SPA) 공격 및 차분 전력분석(DPA) 공격에 대응할 수 있는 방안을 분석하고 타원곡선 암호시스템에 대해 스칼라 곱셈의 연산량을 줄일 수 있는 방안을 제안한다. 제안하는 스칼라 곱셈 알고리듬은 DPA 공격을 방어하기 위해 비밀키에 랜덤성을 부여하였으며 SPA 공격에 대응하면서 계산 효율을 높이기 위해 비밀키를 절반으로 folding하는 기법을 사용하였다. 제안 알고리듬은 하나의 사전 계산정보를 이용하여 SPA와 DPA 공격을 방어하면서도 스칼라 곱셈 연산량을 이진 방식에 비해 약 33%정도 개선하였다.

본 논문은 고주파 유도가열용 전원에 사용되는 Half-Bridge 직렬 공진형 인버터를 단위인버터로 한 고주파 인버터 회로를 제시하였다. 제안한 인버터의 구동신호 제어기법으로는 아날로그와 디지털 통신에서 신호전송용으로 널리 사용되는 TDM(Time Division Multiplexing) 방식을 응용한 시분할 구동법을 사용하였다. 회로의 해석은 정규화 파라메타를 도입하여 범용성 있게 기술하였고, 인버터 특성은 스위칭 주파수와 제 파라메타에 따라 특성평가를 행하였다. 또한, 이론해석에서 얻은 특성값을 기초로 한 회로 설계 기법의 일 예도 제시하였다. 범용 시뮬레이션 툴인 Pspice를 통해 이론해석의 타당성을 검증하였으며, 향후 유도가열 응용, DC-DC 컨버터 등의 전원 시스템에 응용 가능성을 보여주고 있다.

Dealing with the DC link fault poses a technical problem for an HVDC based on a modular multilevel converter. The fault suppressing mechanisms of several sub-module topologies with DC fault current blocking capacity are examined in this paper. An improved half-bridge sub-module topology with double direction control switch is also designed to address the additional power consumption problem, and a sub-module topology called hybrid double direction blocking sub module (HDDBSM) is proposed. The DC fault suppression characteristics and sub-module capacitor voltage balance problem is also analyzed, and a self-startup method is designed according to the number of capacitors. The simulation model in PSCAD/EMTDC is built to verify the self-startup process and the DC link fault suppression features.

This paper presents a new approach for fault diagnosis in three-level neutral point clamped inverters. The proposed method is based on the average values of the positive and negative parts of normalized output currents. This method is capable of detecting and locating multiple open-circuit faults in the controlled power switches of converters in half of a fundamental period of those currents. The implementation of this diagnostic approach only requires two output currents of the inverter. Therefore, no additional sensors are needed other than the ones already used by the control system of a drive based on this type of converter. Moreover, through the normalization of currents, the diagnosis is independent of the load level of the converter. The performance and effectiveness of the proposed diagnostic technique are validated by experimental results obtained under steady-state and transient conditions.

A new sustain driving method for the AC PDP is presented. In this driving method, the voltage source is connected to a storage capacitor, this storage capacitor charges an intermediate capacitor through LC resonance, and the panel is charged from the intermediate capacitor indirectly. In this way, the current flowing into the AC PDP when the sustain discharge occurs is reduced because the current is indirectly supplied from a capacitor, a limited source of charge. Thus, the input power to the output luminance efficiency is improved. Since the voltage supplied to the storage capacitor is doubled through LC resonance, this method call drive an AC PDP with a voltage source of about half of the voltage necessary in the conventional driving methods. The experiments showed that this charge-controlled driving method could drive ail AC PDP with a voltage source of as low as 107V. Using a panel of the conventional structure, luminous efficiency of 1.28 lm/W was achieved.

The module UPS can flexibly implement expansion of power system capacities. Furthermore, it can be used to build up the parallel redundant system to improve the reliability of power system operation. To realize the module UPS, load sharing without interconnection among parallel connecting modules as well as a small scale and lightweight topology is necessary. In this paper, the three-arm converter/inverter is compared with the general full-bridge and half-bridge topology from a practical point of view and chosen as the module UPS topology. The switching control approaches based on a pulse width modulation of the converter and inverter of the system are presented independently The frequency and voltage droop method is applied to parallel operation control to achieve load sharing. Two prototype 3kVA modules are designed and implemented to confirm the effectiveness of the proposed approaches. Experimental results show that the three-arm UPS system has a high power factor, a low distortion of output voltage and input current, and good load sharing characteristic.
