Frequency characteristics of gain-saturated erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) are experimentally evaluated to mitigate the optical signal fluctuation induced by atmospheric turbulence in terrestrial freespace optical communication systems. Here, an acousto-optic modulator (AOM) is used to emulate optical signal fluctuations induced by atmospheric turbulence. The waveform which is generated in proportion to the refractive-index structural parameters is used to drive the AOM at various periodic frequencies. Thus, the dependence of the signal fluctuation suppression on the frequency is evaluated. The experiment is conducted using a periodic frequency sweep of the AOM driving voltage waveform and signal input power variation of the amplifier. It is observed that a low periodic frequency and high input signal power effectively suppress the optical signal fluctuation. This study evaluates the experimental results from the high-pass filter and gain-saturation characteristics of the EDFA.

DFT(Discrete Fourier Transform) is one of the most widely used method to estimate the phasor of a relaying signal. The harmonics are eliminated by the DFT. However, high frequency components, except for harmonics, are not removed and cause an error in DFT-based phasor estimation process. This paper suggests high frequency noise reduction method by using a newly designed low-pass filter to estimate a signal phasor. When selecting a stop-band cut-off frequency of the low-pass filter, high frequency components generated by faults are considered. To reduce the phasor estimation delay caused by a low-pass filter, this paper proposes a low-pass filter whose settling time is reduced. An adverse effect of high frequency noise on DFT-based phasor estimation is reduced. To evaluate the performance of the proposed method, signals which are collected under a fault condition at a 345[kV] transmission system modeled by EMTP-RV are used.

This paper presents a DFT (Discrete Fourier Transform) based estimation algorithm for the parameters of a low-frequency oscillating signal. The proposed method estimates the parameters, i.e., the frequency, the damping factor, the mode amplitude, and the phase, by fitting a discrete Fourier spectrum with an exponentially damped cosine function. Parameter estimation algorithms that consider the spectrum leakage of the discrete Fourier spectrum are introduced. The multi-domain mode test functions are tested in order to verify the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed method. The results show that the proposed algorithms are highly applicable to the practical computation of low-frequency parameter estimations based on DFTs.

고주파수, 고해상도 초음파 영상을 획득하기 위해서는 고주파수 초음파 변환기가 가지는 작은 구경에 따른 낮은 민감도와 침투 깊이에 따른 높은 감쇠량을 극복하여야 한다. 이는 고주파수 초음파 변환기의 본질적인 한계점이므로 수신 시스템을 통하여 그 한계점을 극복하여야 한다. 본 논문은 고주파수, 고해상도 초음파 영상을 위하여 고주파수 초음파 변환기의 본질적인 한계인 낮은 민감도와 높은 감쇠량을 극복할 수 있는 저잡음 광대역 수신 시스템 개발과 특성 평가 결과에 관한 것이다. 개발한 저잡음 광대역 수신 시스템은 80 MHz 이상의 동작 주파수 대역에서 최대 73 dB의 증폭 이득과 48 dB의 가변 이득 범위를 만족하며 ${\pm}1dB$의 증폭 이득 평탄도 성능을 가진다. 또한 개발한 수신 시스템은 상용 리시버에 비하여 8.4 dB 이상의 신호대잡음비 성능과 3.7 dB 이상의 대조도 성능이 우수함을 확인하였다.

This paper deals with the multiresolution analysis of wavelet transform for partial discharge(PD). Test arrangement is based on the needle-plane electrode system and applied AC high voltage. The measured PD signal was decomposed into "approximations" and "details". The approximation are the high scale, low-frequency components of the PD signal. The details are the low-scale, high frequency components. The decomposition process are iterated to 3 level, with successive approximation being decomposed in turn, so that PD signal is broken down into many lower-resolution components. Through the procedure of signal wavelet transform, signal noise extraction and signal reconstruction, the signal is analyzed to determine the magnitude of PD.

This paper dealt with the detection algorithm of series arcing, which is a cause of electric fires in low-voltage wiring systems. To find the distinguished electrical features of series arc, we simulated series arcing by the arc generator specified in UL1699. An electric heater, an inverter-controlled vacuum cleaner, and a phase-controlled incandescent lamp were used as loads to generate series arcing. A high-pass filter (HPF) with the low cut-off frequency of 3 kHz at -3 dB was fabricated and applied to separate the series arc signal from the AC voltage source. The experiment showed that the high frequency signal generates randomly during series arcing, and the phase-controlled incandescent lamp produces high frequency pulses even in normal state. In this case, the magnitude, the width, and the randomness of high frequency signal should be analyzed to estimate series arcing precisely.

해상통신에서 운용되는 OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing)통신 단말기는 긴급재난시에도 동작하여야 하므로, 저전력으로 동작하여야 한다. 따라서 Digital Signal Processing (DSP) 동작하는 전압모드 Processor보다 저전력 동작이 가능한 전류모드 FFT (Fast-Fourier-Transform) Processor의 설계가 필요하게 되었다. IVC (Current-to-Voltage Converter)는 전류모드 FFT Processor의 출력 전류를 전압 신호로 바꾸는 디바이스로써, 저전력 OFDM 단말기 동작을 위해 IVC의 전력 손실은 낮아야 하고, FFT의 출력 전류가 전압신호에 대응이 될 수 있도록 넓은 선형적인 동작구간을 가져야 하며, 향후, FFT LSI와 IVC가 한 개의 칩으로 결합되는 것을 고려하면, 작은 크기의 chip size로 설계되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 선형 동작 구간이 넓은 새로운 IVC를 제안한다. 시뮬레이션 결과, 제안된 IVC는 전류모드 FFT Processor의 출력 범위인 -100 ~100[uA]에서 0.85V~1.4V의 선형동작구간을 갖게 됨을 확인하였다. 제안된 IVC는 전류모드 FFT Processor와 더불어 OFDM을 이용한 저전력 해상 데이터통신 실현을 위한 선도 기술로 유용할 것이다.

This paper proposes a field-oriented control strategy without speed sensor in overall speed range. At low speed region including zero speed, the electrical saliency which is due to the main flux saturation is used in order to estimate an instantaneous flux position. This electrical saliency can be obtained from the difference of high frequency impedance by the high frequency signal injection. This method enables the stable operation at zero speed or stator frequency even under heavily loaded condition. However, because of the high frequency signal injection the loss and noise in motor increase and the voltage margin is reduced as the motor speed increases. Therefore, this algorithm must be supplemented with the algorithm based on the electrical model of motor, which is conventionally used in the region except the low speed. This paper proposes the combination algorithm between the high frequency signal infection method and the adaptive observer, in which the rotor flux and motor speed can be simultaneously estimated by the adaptive control theory. This combination algorithm enables the stable operation of field-oriented speed control without speed sensor in overall speed range. This is verified by experimental results.

We propose an efficient high voltage level shifter for a high side Buck converter driving a light-emitting diode (LED) lamp. The proposed circuit is comprised of a low voltage pulse width modulation (PWM) signal driver, a coupling capacitor, a resistor, and a diode. The proposed method uses a property of a PWM signal. The property is that the signal repeatedly transits between a low and high level at a certain frequency. A low voltage PWM signal is boosted to a high voltage PWM signal through a coupling capacitor using the property of the PWM signal, and the boosted high voltage PWM signal drives a p-channel metal oxide semiconductor (PMOS) transistor on the high side Buck converter. Experimental results show that the proposed level shifter boosts a low voltage (0 to 20 V) PWM signal at 125 kHz to a high voltage (370 to 380 V) PWM signal with a duty ratio of up to 0.9941.
