The electromechanical impedance(E/M)-based method detects local structural damages based on variations of electrical impedance signatures which are obtained from piezoelectric sensors bonded to the structure and excited in high frequency band. In this method, temperature changes may result in significant impedance variations and lead to erroneous diagnostic results of the structure. To tackle this problem, a new technique providing a 2-dimensional damage feature related to the temperature information is proposed to distinguish the structural damage from the undesirable temperature variation. For experimental tests to validate the proposed method, damages are introduced by bolt loosening to a bolt-jointed steel beam, and impedance signals are measured under varying temperature conditions through a piezoelectric sensor attached on the beam. A freely suspended piezoelectric sensor is additionally utilized to obtain temperature information indirectly from resistance signatures. From a relationship between the damage index (from a constrained sensor) and the temperature (from a freely suspended sensor or a temperature sensor), damages can be detected more clearly under varying temperature compared to other conventional approaches.

파워를 이용하는 음향 변환자를 설계할 경우 전기적 신호의 에너지가 가급적 많이 음향 에너지로 바뀌어서 전달되도록 하여야 한다. 이를 위해서는 방사임피던스를 포함한 초음파 변환자의 임피던스와 파워 앰프의 출력 임피던스 간에 정합이 필요하다. 특히 구동부의 출력 임피던스 값이 매우 작은 경우 센서의 역률 개선이 꼭 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 광대역 수중 음향 발신기의 역률 개선을 위해서 ABCD 전송 행렬을 사용한 정합 기법을 제안한다.

음향시스템을 구성하는 스피커의 임피던스는 고정된 값으로 인식되고 있다. 그러나 스피커의 임피던스는 입력신호의 주파수 변화에 따라 계속 변화하고 그 변화량은 스피커의 공진 주파수 대역에서 매우 크다. 스피커의 음압 레벨은 스피커를 구성하는 코일에 흐르는 전류에 따라 결정되는데 스피커를 전압 구동 할 경우 변화하는 임피던스에 의해 음압 레벨의 왜곡이 발생한다. 스피커를 전류 구동 할 경우 이러한 문제는 해결되지만 저주파에서 공진의 영향으로 음압 레벨의 왜곡이 발생하는데 이는 음향시스템의 음질 저하를 가져올 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 전류구동 음향시스템의 음질 개선을 위해 DSP(Digital Signal Processing)를 이용하여 음압레벨의 왜곡을 보정하는 공진 보상회로를 제안한다. 본 논문은 스피커의 등가 모델을 이용한 음향 시스템의 전류 구동 모의실험을 통해 주파수 변화에 따른 음압 레벨 왜곡을 확인하고 이를 보정하는 회로를 제안하는 것으로 구성하였다. 제안한 회로는 상태변수필터를 이용하여 구성하였고 주파수 및 출력이 조절 가능하여 다양한 음향 시스템에 적용 가능 할 것으로 보인다.

This paper presents DG based droop controlled parallel inverter systems with virtual impedance considering the unequal resistive-inductive combined line impedance condition. This causes a reactive power sharing error and dynamic performance degradation. Each of these drawbacks can be solved by adding the feedforward term of each line impedance voltage drop or injecting the virtual inductor. However, if the line impedances are high enough because of the long distance between the DG and the PCC or if the capacity of the system is large so that the output current is very large, this leads to a high virtual inductor voltage drop which causes reductions of the output voltage and power. Therefore, the line impedance voltage drops and the virtual inductor and resistor voltage drop compensation methods have been considered to solve these problems. The proposed method has been verified in comparison with the conventional droop method through PSIM simulation and low-scale experimental results.

Common-mode noise (CMN) is an unresolved problem in wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) systems. In a WCE system, CMN originates from various electric currents found within the human body or external interference sources and causes critical demodulation performance degradation. The differential operation, a typical method for the removal of CMN rejection, can remove CMN by subtracting two signals simultaneously received by two reception sensors attached to a human body. However, when there is impedance mismatching between the two reception sensors, the differential operation method cannot completely remove CMN. Therefore, to overcome this problem, we propose an enhanced CMN rejection method. The proposed method performs not only subtraction but also addition between two received signals. Then a CMN ratio can be estimated by sufficient accumulation of division operation outcomes between the subtraction and addition outputs during the guard period. Finally, we can reject the residual CMN by combining the subtraction and addition outputs.

Switched-inductor (SL) Z-source three-level inverter is a novel high power topology. The SL based impedance network can boost the input dc voltage to a higher value than the single LC impedance network. However, as all the neutral-point-clamped (NPC) inverters, the SL Z-source three-level inverter has to balance the neutral-point (NP) potential too. The principle of the inverter is introduced and then the effects of NP potential unbalance are analyzed. A NP balancing method is proposed. Other than the methods for conventional NPC inverter without Z-source impedance network, the upper and lower shoot-through durations are corrected by the feedforward compensation factors. With the proposed method, the NP potential is balanced and the voltage boosting ability of the Z-source network is not affected obviously. Simulations are conducted to verify the proposed method.

The parallel operation system of UPS is used to increase reliability of power source at critical load. But parallel UPS system has a few defects, impedance is different from each other and circulating current occurs between UPSs, due to line impedance and parameter variation, though controlled by the same synchronization signal. According to such characteristic of parallel UPS, balanced load-sharing control is the most important technique in parallel UPS operation. In this paper, a novel power deviation compensation algorithm is proposed. it is composed of voltage controller to compensate power deviation that be calculated by using active and reactive current deviation between Inverters on synchronous d-q reference frame.

This paper deals with an improved fault location algorithm with compensation ground capacitance through distributed parameter for a long parallel T/L. For the purpose of fault locating algorithm non-influenced by source impedance and fault resistance, the loop method was used in the system modeling analysis. This algorithm uses a positive and negative sequence of the fault current for high accuracy of fault locating calculation. Power system model of 160km and 300km long parallel T/L was simulated using EMTP software. To evaluate of the proposed algorithm, we used the several different cases 64 sampled data per cycle. The test results show that the proposed algorithm was minimized the error factor and speed of fault location estimation.

근관장 측정기 중 주파수 의존형이 다른 방법보다 정확도도 높고 사용이 간편한 것으로 평가되고 있다. 그러나 주파수 의존형 또한 실제 임상 사용시 근관내의 전해질 유무에 영향을 받는다. 본 연구에서는 전해질의 영향을 최소화한 자동 보정 주파수 의존형 전자 근관장 측정기를 개발하였다. 또한 500Hz와 10kHz가 임피던스 측정을 위해 사용되는 교류신호로써 측정오차를 최소화하는 최적 주파수임을 상품화된 제품의 주파수(400Hz, 8kHz)와 비교하여 확인하였으며, 신호의 파형에 따른 통계적 유의성은 없었다(p>0.05). 두 신호의 임피던스 비는 파일의 근관 내의 위치를 알려주고, 본 연구에서 적용한 두 신호의 전압차는 근관내 용액의 상태를 나타내 준다. 전압차를 이용하여 보정한 결과 측정오차를$H_2O_2$ 용액에서는 평균 +0.54mm에서 +0.18mm로(p<0.01), NaOCl 용액에서는 평균 -0.33mm에서 -0.01mm로(p<0.01) 줄일 수 있었다. 정확도는 허용오차를 ${\pm}$0.5mm를 기준으로 할 때, $H_2O_2$ 용액에서는 71.1%에서 91.1%로, NaOCl 용액에서는 82.2%에서 100%로 향상시켰다.

This paper suggests on-load torque measurement for 3 phase induction motors by input -voltage and current utilizing symmetric coordinate analysis technique on the basis of the induction motor equivalent circuit. In this paper, two cases are treated with, i.e, one is the case where the motors' exciting current and primary leakage impedance voltage drop are compensated automatically, adopting the ideal wattmeter whose current coil impedance and voltage coil impedance are 0 and .inf. respectively, and the other is the case where non-ideal wattmeter is adopted and the compensation above is made by computation. As a result of the case study, following conclusions are obtained. 1) By proper combination of the error propagation law and the limit of power consumption, the desirable overall measurement error of the apparatus can be obtained on the basis of the inherent errors of CT and PT. 2) The measurement error is larger in current simulation circuit than in voltage simulation circuit. 3) Between the two cases, the latter is more advantageous than the former from the viewpoint of feasibility and the measurement error. 4) As the attachment of Ammeter in the current simulation circuit influences the measurement error considerably, its internal impedance should be large considerably. 5) The larger the consumption power of the apparatus is, the easier the feasibility is.
