Although DC ground resistance is a good index of grounding performance for grounding electrodes, it does not reflect the grounding performance during transient state. Besides, impulse ground impedance, which is defined by a ratio of the peak value of transient ground potential rise to the peak value of impulse current, cannot be an absolute index due to its dependence on impulse current shape. In this paper, ground impedance characteristics of ground electrodes has been measured in frequency domain ranging from 1 Hz to hundreds of kHz. Equivalent circuit models and transfer function models of the ground rod have been identified from the measured values of ground impedance in frequency domain.

The characteristics of wave propagation along a catenary in rail electrification system depend on the boundary impedance, characteristic impedance of catenary, and the contact force of pantograph moving along the catenary. In this study, the wave propagation along catenary is studied with arbitrary boundary conditions and characteristic impedance of catenary. The reflection and transmission of waves through the boundaries of catenary and the propagation of waves along the catenary are found to be dependent on the wave length.

This paper proposed that a small type conductor surface open-loop antenna model for the moisture sensor and its operating characteristics were analysed numerically by using the moment methods. The numerical analysis results from this antenna model showed that this antenna could match the input impedance to $50[{\Omega}]$ by changing parameters of the antenna in the frequency range from 300[MHz] to 500[MHz]. This model also showed that the open-loop radius. height and wire width give a tremendous influence on the antenna resonance variation. while the loaded inductance values affects the variation or the input impedance at the resonance frequencies.

The impedance characteristics and plasma parameters were experimentally studied in a weakly magnetized planar type, inductively coupled plasma (ICP) system. Compared with non-magnetized for system higher power transfer efficiency, stable impedance matching, enhancement of plasma density and higher electron temperature can be obtained. Such improvements are mainly due to the excitation of deeply penetrating electromagnetic wave and reduction of radial loss of electrons. In particulary, $SF_6$ (sulfur hexafluride) plasma shows unstable impedance matching in non-magnetized ICP because electronegativity of $SF_6$ effects on plasma characteristics. But, magnetized inductively coupled $SF_6$ plasma shows enough impedance matching stability to be applicable to the polysilicon etching in semiconductor process.

Inverters are widely used in distributed power generation and other applications. However, their lack of inertia and variable impedance may cause system instability and power transfer inaccuracy. This paper proposes a control scheme for a single phase voltage-controlled inverter with some grid-friendly characteristics. The proposed control algorithm enables the inverter to function as a voltage source with an inner output impedance in both the islanded and grid-connected modes. Virtual inertia and rotor equations are embedded in the PLL part. Thus, the frequency stability can remain. The inner output impedance can be adjusted freely, which helps to accurately decouple and transmit the output active and reactive power. The proposed inverter operates like a traditional synchronous generator. Simulations and experiments are designed and carried out to verify the proposed control strategy.

This paper analyzes impedance convergence characteristics and harmonics of electric locomotives operation and fault condition. To simulate the various fault and operation condition, AT feeding system and various locomotives are modeled using PSCAD/EMTDC. Analysis shows that impedance are converged into protection area in the case of short fault between catenary and rail or catenary and feeder line but in the case of disconnection fault, impedance is rater bigger so protective relay can't detect the fault. Therefore more analysis of overload and high impedance fault caused disconnection fault is needed.

In this paper, we carried out an comparative analysis on ground impedance of single copper-, three linked copper- and single carbon- electrodes by the application of various current sources such as sine, square, and surge with fast risetime. Impedance of single-copper electrode was the highest among them and was affected as the amplitude and the frequency of applied current. However, impedance characteristics of the three linked copper- and the single carbon- electrodes showed a similar tendency.

The molten carbonate fuel cell has conspicuous feature and high potential in being used as an energy converter of various fuel to electricity and heat. However, the MCFC which use strongly corrosive molten carbonate at 650$^{\circ}C$ have many problem. Systematic investigation on corrosion behavior of Fe/20Cr/Ti alloys has been done in (62+38)mol% (Li+K)CO$_3$ melt at 923K by using steady state polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy method. And, The research and development for the solid oxide fuel cell have been promoted rapidly and extensively in recent years, because of their high efficiency and future potential. Therefore this paper describes the manufacturing method and characteristics of anode electrode for SOFC, by the way, Ni-YSZ materials are used as anode of SOFC widely. So in this experiments, we investigated the optimum content of Ni, by the impedance characteristics, overvoltage. As a result, the performance of Ni-YSZ anode(47vo1%) was bettor excellent than the others.

This paper presents the characteristics and effects of grounding resistor and impedance. In grounding system, Grounding resistor is governed neutral currents and voltage. It seems that, grounding resistor has 0 value, then circuit has no faults. While if grounding resistor has large value, then neutral current has large value of fault current and it is made a damage to the utility. In order to analyze the grounding impedance characteristic, EMTP simulation has been used. The grounding impedance characteristic has been analyzed and tested for various grounding arrangements and electrode circuit shapes.
