In existing literature on multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) relaying communication systems, antenna selection is often implemented by maximizing the channel capacity or the output single-to-noise ratio (SNR). In this paper, we propose an energy-efficient low-complexity antenna selection scheme for MIMO relaying communication systems. The proposed algorithm is based on beamforming and maximizing the Frobenius norm to jointly optimize the transmit power, number of active antennas, and antenna subsets at the source, relaying and destination. We maximize the energy efficiency between the link of source to relay and the link of relay to destination to obtain the maximum energy efficiency of the system, subject to the SNR constraint. Compared to existing antenna selection methods forMIMO relaying communication systems, simulation results demonstrate that the proposed method can save more power in term of energy efficiency, while having lower computational complexity.

This paper develops a coordinated control strategy of the doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) system based on repetitive control (RC) under generalized harmonic grid voltage conditions. The proposed RC strategy in the rotor side converter (RSC) is capable of ensuring smooth DFIG electromagnetic torque that will enable the possible safe functioning of the mechanical components, such as gear box and bearing. Moreover, the proposed RC strategy in the grid side converter (GSC) aims to achieve sinusoidal overall currents of the DFIG system injected into the network to guarantee satisfactory power quality. The dc-link voltage fluctuation under the proposed control target is theoretically analyzed. Influence of limited converter capacity on the controllable area has also been studied. A laboratory test platform has been constructed, and the experimental results validate the availability of the proposed RC strategy for the DFIG system under generalized harmonic grid voltage conditions.

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.

In this paper, we consider the D2D Transmitter(Tx) and Receiver(Rx) pair assignment problem in the cellular system. Sharing the resource of the cellular system, D2D users may cause interference to the cellular system, though it is beneficial to improve the D2D user Capacity. Therefore, to protect the cellular users, D2D transmit power should be carefully controlled. Previously, optimal Tx-Rx assignment to minimize the total transmit power of users was investigated. Accordingly, the iterative algorithm to find the optimum Tx-Rx asignment was obtained. In this work, we consider the case where Tx group users becomes Rx group users, and Rx group users become Tx group users. We prove that the Tx-Rx assignment problem has the duality property. We present the numerical examples that show the duality between U-link and D-link.

This paper investigates the performance of a hybrid single input multiple output radio frequency/free-space optics (SIMO-RF/FSO) communication system. Each SIMO-RF link is modeled as an independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) Rayleigh distribution, while the FSO link follows a generalized $M{\acute{a}}laga$ (M) distribution. Considering the fixed gain amplify-and-forward (AF) relay and misalignment errors, novel expressions for the outage probability (OP), average bit error rate (ABER) and average capacity are derived. Numerical results show that atmospheric turbulence and misalignment errors can seriously impair the system performance, and the hybrid RF/FSO communication system using SIMO-RF links can greatly improve system performance. We also analyze system performance under different types of modulation schemes. Numerical results are verified by Monte Carlo simulations.

Networks in Mobile ad hoc contain distribution and do not have a predefined structure which practically means that network modes can play the role of being clients or servers. The routing protocols used in mobile Ad-hoc networks (MANETs) are characterized by limited bandwidth, mobility, limited power supply, and routing protocols. Hybrid routing protocols solve the delay problem of reactive routing protocols and the routing overhead of proactive routing protocols. The Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithm is used to solve other real-life problems such as the travelling salesman problem, capacity planning, and the vehicle routing challenge. Bio-inspired methods have probed lethal in helping to solve the problem domains in these networks. Hybrid routing protocols combine the distance vector routing protocol (DVRP) and the link-state routing protocol (LSRP) to solve the routing problem.

본 논문에서는 계통망 사업자의 High Voltage Ride-Through(HVRT) 기능 요구조건을 만족하며, 정상상태에서의 손실을 최소화할 수 있는 Type 4 풍력발전기의 직류단 전압 설계 방법을 제안한다. 대용량 해상 풍력 발전에 사용되는 Type 4 풍력발전기는 전력 계통과 연계된 컨버터와 풍력 발전기와 연계된 컨버터가 직류단을 공유하는 Back-to-Back 컨버터 형태이다. Type 4 풍력발전기에서 HVRT 조건인 계통 고전압 사고가 발생한 경우 사고 전압 크기에 비해 직류단 전압이 부족하다면 과변조로 인해 계통측 컨버터의 전류 제어기가 원활하게 동작되지 못한다. 따라서 HVRT 기능을 만족하기 위해서는 고전압 사고의 전압 크기를 기준으로 직류단 전압을 설계해야 한다. 그러나 직류단 전압의 크기의 증가는 정상상태에서의 컨버터 손실 증가를 야기하므로, 직류단 전압을 크게 설계하였을 때 증가될 손실에 대한 고려가 포함되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 사고 전압의 크기와 발생 손실이 고려된 직류단 전압을 설계하는 방법에 대해 설명하고, 제안하는 설계 방법의 타당성을 2MVA급 Type 4 풍력발전기의 PSCAD 모델 기반 HVRT 기능 시뮬레이션을 통해 확인하였다.

본 연구에서는 중/저층의 철골모멘트골조를 대상으로 합리적이고 실용적인 변위기반 내진설계절차를 제시하였다. 현행의 내진설계에서는 구조시스템 종별에 따라 경험적이고 획일적으로 규정된 반응수정계수를 토대로 설계가 수행되므로, 접합부가 보유한 회전능력의 적정성 여부를 검증하기가 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 실험적으로 입증된 철골모멘트골조 접합부의 가용 소성회전능력을 주요설계변수로 직접 사용하는 새로운 설계법을 제시하였다. 이 설계방안의 정립을 위해, 우선 지금까지 불분명한 관계로 남아있던 접합부의 가용 소성회전능력과 반응수정계수 사이의 관계를 합리적이고 정량적으로 정의하는 방안을 제시하였다. 이를 토대로 변위에 기반한 단계별 내진설계절차를 제시하고 비선형동적해석에 의해 방안의 타당성을 입증하였다.

In this paper, the behaviour of axially loaded partially encased composite columns made with light welded H steel shapes is examined using ABAQUS finite element modelling. The results of the numerical simulations are compared to the response observed in previous experimental studies on that column system. The steel shape of the specimens has transverse links attached to the flanges to improve its local buckling capacity and concrete is poured between the flanges only. The test specimens included 14 stubcolumns with a square cross section ranging from 300 mm to 600 mm in depth. The transverse link spacing varied from 0.5 to 1 times the depth and the width-to-thickness ratio of the flanges ranged from 23 to 35. The numerical model accounted for nonlinear stress-strain behaviour of materials, residual stresses in the steel shape, initial local imperfections of the flanges, and allowed for large rotations in the solution. A Riks displacement controlled strategy was used to carry out the analysis. Plastic analyses on the composite models reproduced accurately the capacity of the specimens, the failure mode, the axial strain at peak load, the transverse stresses in the web, and the axial stresses in the transverse links. The influence of applying a typical construction loading sequence could also be reproduced numerically. A design equation is proposed to determine the axial capacity of this type of column.

Employee's agility is becoming a primary factor of improving individual work performance. Employee's agility refers to responsiveness or behavior of employees in the context of work environment change. The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between employee's agility and work performance in the perspective of agility's influence factors(absorptive capacity, IT resource use, readiness to change) and knowledge-oriented leadership, A survey was conducted for gathering data (a total of 262 employees from 35 industrial organizations) to test the relationships. The results of analysis show that employee's agility is a driving force leading to individual work performance, that employee's absorptive capacity, IT resource use, readiness to change, and knowledge-oriented leadership are the significant influential factors of employee's agility, and that knowledge-oriented leadership strengthens the link between employee's absorptive capacity and agility. For theoretical and practical contributions, the research presents the grounds for arguments that employee's agility is employee's dynamic capability for individual work performance under work environment change, and that organizations trying to improve employee's agility need to explore employee's behavioral attitudes under individual, leader, and organizational dimensions. Limitations arisen in the course of the research and suggestions for future research directions are also discussed.
