This paper proposes supplementary control of conventional coordinated control of a power plant which directly affects network frequency. The supplementary control with dynamic matrix control is applied for 1000 MW power plant with ultra-supercritical (USC) once-through boiler. The supplementary control signal is added to the boiler feedforward signal in the existing coordinated control logic. Therefore, it is a very practical structure that can maintain the existing multi-loop control system. This supplementary controller uses the step response model for the power plant system, and on-line optimization is performed at every sampling step. The simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed supplementary control in a wide operating range of a practical 1000 MW USC power plant simulator. These results can contribute the stable operation of power system frequency.

Analytical characteristics of low power-low flow inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectometry(ICP-AES) has been studied. Although the net intensity of the low power ICP is lower than the moderate power ICP, the signal to background ratio becomes higher since the background intensity decreases with decreasing the RF power. The detection limit of the low power ICP is comparable with that of the moderate power ICP. The dynamic range of the calibration curve of the low power ICP is $10^4{\sim}10^5$. The ionization interferences by alkali metals increase with increasing the carrier gas flow rate, but the effects are not varied significantly with the RF power.

Electrical energy is the essential resource for modern society. Recently, the demand for power was significantly increased. Increase of power demand has lead to a decrease in the power quality. Power quality in modern society has been an important factor that can cause a major problem throughout the home and general industry. Therefore, we need a system for preventing the power quality problems. To avoid power issues, it is important that the measurement of the power quality and initial response. In this paper, we propose real-time power quality measurement system and harmonics monitoring system. We design the system using DM240001 board include dsPIC33FJ256GP710A of microchip. This system can adapt three-phase three-wire system. And optimized the algorithm, we can measure momentary changes of the power system. In addition, designed system can measure harmonics distortion like to VTHD, ITHD and ITDD for 31th harmonics.

The fundamental small-signal modeling of lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries and a parameter evaluation approach are investigated in this study to describe the dynamic behaviors of small signals accurately. The main contributions of the study are as follows. 1) The operational principle of the small signals of Li-ion batteries is revealed to prove that the sinusoidal voltage response of a Li-ion battery is a result of a sinusoidal current stimulation of an AC small signals. 2) Three small-signal measurement conditions, namely stability, causality, and linearity, are proved mathematically proven to ensure the validity of the frequency response of the experimental data. 3) Based on the internal structure and electrochemical operational mechanism of the battery, an AC small-signal model is established to depict its dynamic behaviors. 4) A classical least-squares curve fitting for experimental data, referred as Levy's method, are introduced and developed to identify small-signal model parameters. Experimental and simulation results show that the measured frequency response data fit well within reading accuracy of the simulated results; moreover, the small-signal parameters identified by Levy's method are remarkably close to the measured parameters. Although the fundamental and parameter evaluation approaches are discussed for Li-ion batteries, they are expected to be applicable for other batteries.

A laborer always watched a process of production carefully but defective manufactures were inspected after press process. These inspections made a waste of human power and defective manufactures could make a serious damage of press mold. Therefore, AE(Acoustic Emission) system was introduced to prevention of the damage of the press molds, to a real time detection of defective manufactures and to save human power. AE system was introduced to solve this problem which is a detecting defective manufacture on real time and to prevent the damage of the press mold. In this research we get acoustic emission signal in accordance with weight and processing method of press by using AE sensor, Preamplifier, AE board signal board which occurs press processing and it analyzed various signal through using CMD8 software on the time. From the result, we found that the intensity and shape of the signal were changed according to the weight and processing type of the press. By using this special algorithm, it can judge the acoustic signal which occurs from press on real time.

Mobile positioning measurement is the most important technology for Location Based Services in the cellular networks. Generally, we are expecting to use GPS to guarantee high accuracy of the mobile position, A CDMA network-based technique for the Mobile Station position calculation needs to be implemented in the cdma2000 network whether the handsets have GPS or not, The most reliable methods of the network-based location technologies are based on the estimation of time of signal traveling between MS and B18 in a network whose coordinates are identified, Other signal parameters such as the power of the received signal and the signal arrival direction cannot be used as main data for a location system because adoption of only the signal parameters will not meet the FCC requirements, In practice, the estimates of the time of signal propagation between MS and BTS always have errors resulting from low-resolution power of measurements and multi path signal propagation, This paper describes the combined network-based location technology in the cdma2000 1× necessary to meet US FCC requirements. The issues of a calibration table and statistic processing based on the pilot strength as well as combined network-based location technologies(TOA/ TDOA) will help to achieve higher location accuracy than specified in the US FCC Rule.

The function estimation characteristics of neural networks can be used for sensor signal validation of a system. In case of applying the neural networks to signal validation, it is a important problem that the redundant sensor signals used as a input signal of neural networks should be validated. In this paper, we simplify the conventional parity space method in order to input the validated signal to the neural networks and also propose the sensor signal validation method, which estimates the reliable sensor output combining neural networks with the simplified parity space method. The acceptability of the proposed signal validation method is demonstrated by using the simulation data in safety injection accident of nuclear power plants.

Purpose: The algorithm described in Lim(1998) is available to determine the sample size directly given specified significance level, power and signal-to-noise ratio. We research on the efficient determination of the sample size by visual methods. Methods: We propose three graphs for investigating the mutual relationship between the sample size r, power $1-{\beta}$ and the detectable signal-to-noise ratio ${\Delta}$. First graph shows the relationship between ${\Delta}$ and $1-{\beta}$ for the given r and it can be checked whether the power is sufficient enough. Second graph shows the relationship between r and ${\Delta}$ for the given power $1-{\beta}$. Third graph shows the relationship between r and $1-{\beta}$ for the given ${\Delta}$. It can be checked that which effects are sensitive to the efficient sample size by investigating those graphs. Results: In factorial design, randomized block design and the split plot design how to determine the sample size directly given specified significance level, power and signal-to-noise ratio is programmed by using R. A experiment to study the split plot design in Hicks(1982) is used as an example. We compare the sample sizes calculated by randomized block design with those by split plot design. By using graphs, we can check the possibility of reducing the sample size efficiently. Conclusion: The proposed visual methods can help an engineer to make a proper plan to reduce the sample size.
