In power quality monitoring, it is very important to detect disturbances (sag, swell, transient, and interruption) accurately. In this paper, a detection method for power quality disturbances by combining the filter bank system and adaptive filter is proposed. To decompose power signal, binary tree structured filter bank system is designed. In the filter bank system, the fundamental filter bank(QMF bank) is used as a module in each decomposing level. An adaptive filter is used to improve the detection accuracy of disturbances for each subband signal. In the adaptive filter, the measure of estimated error change is used to detect singular points of power quality disturbances. Computer simulations were performed on synthetic signals which have disturbances to assess the performance of the proposed method.

In this paper, we designed POCSAG Signal Decoder to improve operating time in pager. We showed POCSAG Signal Pattern sent by transmitter and operation of this decoder. We also showed that the Pager using this decoder was equipped with Wide Area Signal Detection and designed the hardware which realizes this operation and implemented it with ASIC chip. As we inspected the function of the ASIC chip and tested the performance, we could find that the chip operated in low voltage and that power dissipation was low.

We investigate the transmit power control algorithm for multi-access points environment. Each terminal may transmit a signal to one of these access points. Each access point may receive a signal from desired terminals as well as interference from neighbor terminals. In this paper, a transmit power control algorithm is developed such that the total transmit power is minimized, while each terminal meets the target signal to interference ratio (SIR) requirement. In particular, the effect of increasing the number of access-points on the total transmit power consumption is analyzed. Based on this analysis, we propose a convergence guaranteed power control algorithm. We prove that the proposed iterative algorithm always converges to the target SIR. In addition, we show that the proposed algorithm optimizes the transmit power level. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm guarantees convergence regardless of the number of access points. We also observed that increasing the number of access points reduces the total transmit power consumption.

In this paper, we design a power amplifier to support quad-band in wireless communication devices using RF CMOS 180-nm process. The proposed power amplifier consists of low-band 0.9, 1.8, and 2.4 GHz and high-band 5 GHz. We proposed a structure that can support each input matching network without using a switch. For maximum linear output power, the output matching network was designed for impedance conversion to the power matching point. The fabricated quad-band power amplifier was verified using modulation signals. The long-term evolution(LTE) 10 MHz modulated signal was used for 0.9 and 1.8 GHz, and the measured output power is 23.55 and 24.23 dBm, respectively. The LTE 20 MHz modulated signal was used for 1.8 GHz, and the measured output power is 22.24 dBm. The wireless local area network(WLAN) 802.11n modulated signal was used for 2.4 GHz and 5.0 GHz. We obtain maximum linear output power of 20.58 dBm at 2.4 GHz and 17.7 dBm at 5.0 GHz.

This paper describes a real-time hardware simulator for a grid-tied Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (PMSG) wind power system, which consists of an anemometer, a data logger, a motor-generator set with vector drive, and a back-to-back power converter with a digital signal processor (DSP) controller. The anemometer measures real wind speed, and the data is sent to the data logger to calculate the turbine torque. The calculated torque is sent to the vector drive for the induction motor after it is scaled down to the rated simulator power. The motor generates the mechanical power for the PMSG, and the generated electrical power is connected to the grid through a back-to-back converter. The generator-side converter in a back-to-back converter operates in current control mode to track the maximum power point at the given wind speed. The grid-side converter operates to control the direct current link voltage and to correct the power factor. The developed simulator can be used to analyze various mechanical and electrical characteristics of a grid-tied PMSG wind power system. It can also be utilized to educate students or engineers on the operation of grid-tied PMSG wind power system.

In this paper, the interference cancellation system, which is used to cancel the feedback signal In the wireless communication system with the same frequency, is studied. The time-varying feedback signal generated from transmitter antenna to receiver antenna reduces the performance of the receiver system. The interference cancellation system using adaptive feedback method(AF-ICS) is suggested to prevent the oscillation of the receiver system and maintain the maximum output power of the power amplifier by the reduction of time-varying feedback signal.

In multipath fading channel, diversity is essential to mitigate the impairments. In this paper, we have proposed the angle diversity scheme called ATTD(Angle Time Transmit Diversity) instead of Alamouti's STTD(Space Time Transmit Diversity) and have analyzed the performance of the proposed scheme when signal powers caused by the transmission to different angles are different. Based on it, we have measured the wireless vector-channel in the urban area, which has lots of high-story buildings, using the data collected from the 8 by 4 smart array antenna system that we made. According to the measured data, the received signals from different angles have different signal powers. Our performance analysis results show that the proposed scheme has better performance than the space diversity scheme when the received path signal power is at least -7dB compare to the strongest path signal power.

In this study, a novel rotor position sensorless estimation method of an interior permanent-magnet synchronous motor is proposed. A square-wave pulsating voltage signal is injected in the estimated synchronous reference frame. This signal is interpreted in the stationary reference frame regardless of the estimated rotor position. Thus, assuming that the position error is nearly zero is unnecessary because the variables in the estimated synchronous reference frame are not used. The rotor position can be exactly calculated from two voltage references and three sampled current feedbacks in the stationary reference frame. The proposed method is easy to implement and helps enhance the bandwidth of the current controller. The validity of the proposed method is verified by simulations and experiments.

Large signal S-parameters of TR are characterized from the circuit which consists of TR and 3dB Coupler Tuners at the input and output ports, and which is B class biased with 0dBminput signal. Amplifier can be designed to have 8.5dB gain at 770MHz using the calculated large signal S-parameters with the resulting gain of 8.786dB.

In conventional small signal stability analysis, system is assumed to be invariant and the state space equations are used to calculate the eigenvalues of state matrix. However, when a system contains switching elements such as FACTS devices, it becomes non-continuous system. In this case, a mathematically rigorous approach to system small signal stability analysis is by means of eigenvalue analysis of the system periodic transition matrix based on discrete system analysis method. In this research, RCF(Resistive Companion Form) method is used to analyse small signal stability of a non-continuous system including switching elements'. Applying the RCF method to the differential and integral equations of power system, generator, controllers and FACTS devices including switching elements should be modeled in the form of state transition matrix. From this state transition matrix eigenvalues which are mapped to unit circle can be calculated.
