This paper presents the method of estimating integral coefficients of new distance relaying algorithm for transmission line protection. The proposed method is based on the differential equation calculates impedance value by approximation of integral term of integro-differential equation which relate voltage with current. As a result, we can determine the integral coefficients in least square error sense in frequency domain and we take into consideration the analog filter characteristics and frequency domain characteristics of the system to be protected. The simulation results showed that these coefficients can be successfully used to obtain impedance value in distance relay.

$TiO_2$ films are fabricated using silk printing method. Heat treatment temperature of films is 600[$^{\circ}C$]. From the analysis of microstructure, grain size of $TiO_2$ films is about $0.2{\sim}0.3[{\mu}m]$. Thickness of films is 30.19[${\mu}m$] and surface uniformity of films is good. From the analysis of crystalline structure, $TiO_2$ films transform anatase phase to rutile phase. Capacitance of films increases according to increase relative humidity and decrease measuring frequency. Hysteresis characteristics of capacitance and impedance are best at 45[%RH] and 75[%RH] respectively. Impedance of films increases according to decrease measuring frequency.

This study deals with the control method of the output impedance for the UPS(Uninterruptible Power Supply) system's wireless parallel opertaion. In order to avoid using any communication between modules, the P/Q droop method was applied. The experiment result based on NPC(Neutral Point Clamped) inverters is included.

We perform a electromagnetic analysis method for indirect effects of a high-conductive structure such as an aircraft exposed by lightning, by using the finite-difference time-domain(FDTD) method. The lightning waveform used to analyze indirect effects has low frequency spectrum and high-conductive materials such as aluminum and carbon fiber composite materials have very short skin depths, and thus, it requires large memory and long computation time using conventional three dimensional FDTD analysis method. We develop an efficient electromagnetic analysis method suitable for lightning and high-conductive structures. The developed analysis method is based on two dimensional FDTD and impedance network boundary condition(INBC) algorithms and we investigate the indirect effects on the structures exposed to lightning.

It is well known that distributed generation(DG) system using renewable energy is an alternative to solve the problems which result from the exhaustion of fossil fuel and the environmental pollution. A PWM inverter is required for a power flow control in the DG systems. This paper proposes a SRF power flow control method considering grid impedance in grid-connected single-phase inverter systems. The proposed SRF power flow control method can provide a voltage-reference for the single-phase inverter even without any grid impedance estimation so that the single-phase inverter system could operate in stand-alone mode and grid-connected mode based on the known nominal value of grid impedance. Also independent controls of active and reactive power are achieved by the proposed control method. The effectiveness and the validity of the proposed control method are demonstrated through simulations. The simulation results show that the proposed control method can control properly power flow in grid-connected single-phase inverter systems.

This paper presents a method of recognizing high impedance fault(HIF) of electrical power systems and classifying fault patterns based on chaos attractors. Two dimensional chaos attractors are reconstructed from neutral point current waveforms. Reliable features for HIF pattern classification are obtained from the chaos attractors. Radial basis function network, trained with two types of HIF data generated by the electromagnetic transient program and measured form actual faults. The RBFN successfully classifies normal and the three types of fault patterns according to the features generated from the chaos attractors.

The absorption coefficients of 3 largely reticulated urethan foams are measured by transfer function method which uses two microphones in an impedance tube. Based on the previously published data, the new modified empirical equations for predicting the characteristic impedance and propagation constant of the largely reticulated urethane foams are developed. Comparison is made between the measured data and the predicted data, based on the previously published equations and the new equation. Good agreement of the absorption coefficient between the measured and predicted data by the new modified empirical equation has been obtained.

Electrical impedance tomography is a nondestructive imaging modality in which the internal resistivity distribution is reconstructed based on the injected currents and measured voltages inside a domain of interest. In this paper, an adaptive threshold value based region of interest (ROI) method is proposed to improve the spatial resolution of reconstructed images as well as to reduce the computational time of the inverse problem. Adaptive threshold value is calculated by INTERMODES method and ROI is determined from the domain based on this value. Moreover, the computational domain of image reconstruction is restricted within a ROI and iterative Gauss-Newton method is employed to estimate the resistivity distribution. To evaluate the performance of the proposed method, numerical experiments have been performed and the results are analyzed.

In this study, we develop a Korotkoff sound based automatic blood pressure measurement device including sensor, hardware, and analysis algorithm. PVDF-based sensor pattern was developed to function as a vibration sensor to detect of Korotkoff sounds, and the film's output was connected to an impedance-matching circuit. An algorithm for determining starting and ending points of the Korotkoff sounds was established, and clinical data from subjects were acquired and analyzed to find the relationship between the values obtained by the auscultatory method and from the developed device. The results from 86 out of 90 systolic measurements and 84 out of 90 diastolic measurements indicate that the developed device pass the validation criteria of the international protocol. Correlation coefficients for the values obtained by the auscultatory method and from the developed device were 0.982 and 0.980 for systolic and diastolic blood pressure, respectively. Blood pressure measurements based on Korotkoff sound signals obtained by using the developed PVDF film-based sensor module are accurate and highly correlated with measurements obtained by the traditional auscultatory method.

A frequently used bioimpedance analytical method in Korea is the segmental multi-frequency BIA (SMF-BIA) method, but it is not directly determined at a segmented impedance. This study was to compare SMF-BIA determinations with direct segmented determinations for accuracy and appropriateness of segment parameters. This study is to compare the segment parameters, accuracy and appropriateness of the multi-frequency segmental bioimpedance analysis. To this end, 108 elderly individuals were measured. Segmented bioelectrical measurements obtained from a SMF-BIA (Inbody S10) at 50 kHz and measured with a phase sensitive single frequency device (SF-BIA, bia-101, RJL / akern systems) were compared. The significant difference (%) was demonstrated between single - and multiple frequency determinations of the right upper limb (R = 35.5 ± 6.2%, P < 0.001; Xc = 2.7 ± 7.6%, P < 0.01), left upper limb difference (R= 33. 9 ± 6.0%, P < 0.001; Xc = 2.8 ± 8.3%, P < 0.01), right lower limb difference (R = 18.6 ± 4.3%, P < 0.001; Xc = 25.8 ± 10.0%, P < 0.001), left lower limb difference (R = 18.0 ± 4.7%, P < 0.001; Xc = 31.8%). Of the results determined with the two BIA methods, the impedance measurements of the limbs and whole body showed a high correlation (RA: R = 0. 950, LA: R = 0. 949, RL: R = 0.899, LL: R = 0.88), and in the agreement test, the impedance values of the upper limbs and whole body also showed strong agreement (ICC > 0.9), but in the Xc, the correlation was weak. In conclusion, it was found that although bioimpedance devices had significantly different characteristics and inconsistent cross sectionally, there was a high population level agreement in the upper and lower extremities in determining segmental resistance value changes. But a large error was found on the trunk. Further studies were needed for reducing the error.
