Two Ka-band 3-stage power amplifiers were designed and fabricated using $0.18-{\mu}m$ CMOS technology. For low loss matching networks for the amplifiers, two substrate-shielded transmission line structures, having good modeling accuracy up to 40 GHz were used. The measured insertion loss of substrate-shielded microstrip-line (MSL) was 0.5 dB/mm at 27 GHz. A 3-stage CMOS amplifier using substrate-shielded MSL achieved a 14.7-dB small-signal gain and a 14.5-dBm output power at 27 GHz in a compact chip area of 0.83$mm^2$. The measured insertion loss of substrate-shielded coplanar waveguide (CPW) was 1.0 dB/mm at 27 GHz. A 3-stage amplifier using substrate-shielded CPW achieved a 12-dB small-signal gai and a 12.5-dBm output power at 26.5 GHz. This results shows a potential of CMOS technology for low cost short-range wireless communication components and system.

In this work, a new method for extracting substrate parameters of RF MOSFETs based on 3-port measurement is presented using device simulation. A T-type substrate resistance network is used. 3-port Y-parameter analyses were performed on the equivalent circuit of RF MOSFETs. All the components in the RF MOSFETs when the device is turned off were extracted directly from the 3-port device simulation data. The small-signal output admittance $Y_{22}$ can be well modeled up to 40 GHz. From the 3-port simulation and modeling results, it was verified that the proposed equivalent circuit and parameter extraction method was more accurate than the single substrate resistance model.

본 논문에서는 Z-소스 네트워크 기반의 배터리 시뮬레이터의 전압 제어기 설계를 위한 소신호 모델링을 수행하고 보드선도를 이용한 안정도 분석을 통한 전압 제어기 설계 방법을 제안하였다. 이를 통하여 인덕턴스와 커패시턴스에 따라 변하게 되는 시스템의 주파수 응답 특성을 고려하여 Z-소스 네트워크 기반의 배터리 시뮬레이터가 안정적으로 동작하도록 하는 전압 제어기의 제어 이득값을 선정하였다. 제안한 방법은 MATLAB을 이용한 안정도 분석을 통하여 검증되었다.

This paper presents a new zero current switching (ZCS) inverter for grid-connected photovoltaic system. The proposed circuit provides zero current switching condition for all the switches, which reduces switching losses significantly. It is controlled to extract maximum power from the solar array and to provide sinusoidal current into the mains. Analysis, small signal modeling and design procedure are presented. The validity of the proposed system is verified by experimental results from the 1.2kW prototype inverter operating at 40kHz.

In this paper, design and control of the novel SEPIC-Flyback converter(SF converter) is developed as a possible converter for fuel cell system. This output characteristic of SF converter is similar to Buck-Boost converter in that it can step-up or step-down the voltage. With the small signal equivalent circuit modeling of SF converter, control-to-output transfer function is obtained. SF converter couples up the inductive type converter to capacitive type converter with one transformer, which has less ripple current than its respective one does. To verify the validity of the proposed converter, 500W, 100kHz converter is designed and tested. ZVS switching and active clamping are also tested in practice.

Photovoltaic systems normally use a maximum power point tracking (MPPT) technique ta continuously deliver the highest possible power to the load when variations in the insolation and temperature occur. A simple method of tracking the maximum power points (MPPs) and forcing the boost converter system to operate close to these points is presented through deriving small-signal model and transfer function of boost converter. This paper aims at modeling boost converter including equivalent series resistance of input reservoir capacitor by state-space-averaging method and PWM switch model with properly designed controller for maximum photovoltaic power tracking control.

This paper deals with the micro-grid consisting of micro-sources which adopt voltage sourced inverters with independent real and reactive power control capability for providing premium power quality. This paper presents dynamic modeling and the stable operating range of the micro-grid system varying the parameters of the micro-sources. The fundamental frequency model of the micro-source inverters are considered to form a dynamic model of the micro-grid system. Stability analysis is performed based on the linearized dynamic model of the micro-grid system. Case study results show the parameters affecting the stability of the micro-grid and the stable operating range of the micro-sources.
