This paper analyses the harmonic pollution to power grids caused by several high-power rectifiers, summarizes the requirements for rectifiers in suppressing grid-side current harmonics and optimizes a new-type of current source PWM rectifier with a hybrid switch. The rectifier with a hybrid switch boasts significant current characteristics and cost advantages in the high-power area. To further enhance the working frequency of the current source rectifier with a hybrid switch for suppressing grid-side harmonics and reducing the inductance size, this paper proposes an optimal control strategy based on space vector. It also verifies that the optimal control strategy based on space vector can reduce the total harmonic distortion of the grid-side current of the rectifier with a hybrid switch via circuit simulation and experimental results.

Various ATM switches have been proposed since Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) was recognized as appropriate for implementing broadband integrated services digital network (BISDN). An ATM switching network may be evaluated on two sides : traffic performances (maximum throughput, delay, and packet loss probability, etc.) and structural features (complexity, i.e. the number of switch elements necessary to construct the same size switching network, maintenance, modularity, and fault tolerance, etc.). ATM switching networks proposed to date tend to show the contrary characteristics between structural features and traffic performance. The Knockout Switch, which is well known as one of ATM switches, shows a good traffic performance but it needs so many switch elements and buffers. In this paper, we propose an input and output buffered Knockout Switch for the purpose of reducing the number of switch elements and buffers of the existing Knockout Switch. We analyze the traffic performance and the structural features of the proposed switching architecture through a discrete time Markov chain and compare with those of the existing Knockout Switch. It was found that the proposed architecture could reduce more than 40 percent of switch elements and more than 30 percent of buffers under a given requirement of cell loss probability of the switch.

The traffic characteristics of digital switch network depend on the structure, blocking probability, path searching method and etc. This paper presents the study of TDX-1 switch network traffic capacity by considering some decisive factors such as call processing software, switch network structure and control scheme. Conclusively the study shows that the switch network of TDX-1 can handle approximatly up to 1650 Erlang.

The addition of disconnect switches to a distribution feeder or the replacement of the manual switches with the automatic switches do, in general, increase reliability by decreasing the duration of the outage of many to the customers on the feeder and reducing the outage section. However, the improvement of reliability in power distribution system causes an increase of the investment cost, for example, replacement costs, labor costs, and so on. For this reason - the balance between investment and reliability improvement - many studies about the appropriate level of investment have been conducted. In this paper, we suggest the algorithm for determining the reasonable switch automation rate in the power distribution system. We evaluate the customer interruption cost and reliability for several cases - these cases relate with the switch automation rate - in the domestic metropolitan power distribution system, estimate the effectiveness of changing the manual switch to automatic switch quantitatively. These results can help the determining on the disconnect switch's automation rate.

To reduce the chattering errors of reed switch sensors used for automatic remote measurement of water supply system, a reed switch sensor was analyzed and improved. The operation of reed switch sensors can be described as a mechanical contact by approximation of permanent magnet piece to generate an electrical pulse. The reed switch sensors are used in measurement application by detecting the rotational or translational displacement. To apply for flow measurement devices, the reed switch sensors should keep high reliability. They are applied for the electronic digital type of water flow meters. The reed switch sensor is just installed simply on the mechanical type flow meter. A small magnet is attached on a pointer of the water meter counter rotor. Inside the reed sensor, two steel leaf springs make mechanical contact and apart as rotation of flow meter counter. The counting electrical contact pulses can be converted as the water flow amount. The MCU sends the digital flow rate data to the server using the wireless communication network. But it occurs data difference or errors by chattering noise. The reed switch sensor contains chattering error by it self at the force equivalent position. The vibrations such as passing car near to the switch sensor installed location. In order to reduce chattering error, most system uses just software methods for example using filter and also statistical calibration methods. The chattering errors were reduced by changing leaf spring structure using mechanical hysteresis characteristics.

This paper describes a high-radix crossbar switch design with low latency and power dissipation for Network-on-Chip (NoC) applications. The reduction in latency and power is achieved by employing a folded-clos topology, implementing the switch organized as three stages of low-radix switches connected in cascade. In addition, to facilitate the uniform placement of wires among the sub-switch stages, this paper proposes a Mux-Matrix-Mux structure, which implements the first and third switch stages as multiplexer-based crossbars and the second stage as a matrix-type crossbar. The proposed 256-radix, 8-bit crossbar switch designed in a 65nm CMOS has the simulated power dissipation of 1.92-W and worst-case propagation delay of 0.991-ns while operating at 1.2-V supply and 500-MHz frequency. Compared with the state-of-the-art designs in literature, the proposed crossbar switch achieves the best energy-delay-area efficiency of $0.73-fJ/cycle{\cdot}ns{\cdot}{\lambda}^2$.

The design, simulation, modeling and measurement of a RF switch module for GSM applications were presented in this paper. switch module were simulated by ADS and constructed using a LTCC multi-layer switching circuit and integrated low pass filter, designed to operate in the GSM band. Insertion and return losses at 900 MHz of the low pass filters were designed to lower than 0.3 dB and higher than 12.7 dB respectively. The switch module constructed, contained 10 embedded passives and 3 surface mounted components integrated on $4.6{\times}4.8{\times}1.2$ m volume, 6-layer integrated circuit. The insertion loss of switch module at m MHz were around 11 dB.
