In this paper, an investigation was conducted to evaluate the acoustic performance of low height noise barriers installed adjacent to rails; an easy-to-use approximation formula was suggested for the evaluation of insertion loss (IL), instead of using the boundary element method. At first, the acoustic performance of the low height noise barriers was measured in an anechoic chamber using a scaled down model; the overall IL according to the source location was analyzed with the equivalent IL contour line. Using the measurement results obtained from the scaled down model, an approximation formula was suggested for the IL of low height noise barriers having various shapes. Also, the prediction program was validated through a comparison between the actual measurement results in the anechoic chamber and the prediction results. Finally, using the prediction program, an approximation formula for IL was suggested for the low height noise absorption barriers. Considering the frequency characteristics of the noise sources of the train, the absorptive low height noise barriers have a 'ㄱ' type shape, a height of 1.0m, and a length of 0.5m when they are installed on the structure gauge for the train.

In addition to the assessment measure of electric quality levels, load loss are also a factor in hindering the financial profits of electrical sales companies. Therefore, accurate analysis of load losses generated from distributed power networks is very important. The accurate calculation of load losses in the distribution line has been carried out for a long time in many research institutes as well as power utilities around the world. But it is increasingly difficult to calculate the exact amount of loss due to the increase in the congestion of distribution power network due to the linkage of distributed energy resources(DER). In this paper, we develop smart grid big data infrastructure in order to accurately analyze the load loss of the distribution power network due to the connection of DERs. Through the preprocess of data selected from the smart grid big data, we develop a load loss analysis model that eliminated 'veracity' which is one of the characteristics of smart grid big data. Our analysis results can be used for facility investment plans or network operation plans to maintain stable supply reliability and power quality.

In this paper, the mixer was implemented in the non-radiative dielectric waveguide that is the main component of 60 GHz band radio telecommunications equipment which a demand increases for the purpose of point-to-point communication network. As to the manufacture of the non-radiative dielectric waveguide mixer, it was the implementation of the dielectric line combiner to be most difficult. The thing which that gives shape to the curvature which is the dielectric line determined and the to place in the exact interval thing are easy. For this reason, it was very difficult to make in order to have the regular performance in the case of the mixer having the dielectric line combiner. In this paper, since the dielectric line combiner was replaced with the waveguide directional coupler and the manufacture was possible through a processing it had the characteristic that a combiner is fixed. In result, the productivity of a mixer was innovatively improved. The design frequency of the mixer implemented through this paper RF and LO are $51{\sim}64\;GHz$. IF Is $DC{\sim}\;GHz2$. The down conversion loss toward the RF input of $60{\sim}62\;GHz$ was measured by $10{\pm}1\;dB$ in the condition that LO is 10 dBm, 60 GHz.

In this study, we investigated the characteristic impedance and bandwidth of CPW3DCS (coplanar waveguide employing periodic 3D coupling structures), and examined its potential for the development of a marine radio communication FISoC (fully-integrated system on chip) semiconductor device. To extract bandwidth and characteristic impedance of the CPW3DC, we induced a measurement-based equation reflecting measured insertion loss, and compared the measured results of the propagation constant β and characteristic impedance with the measured ones. According to the results of the comparison, the calculated results show a good agreement with the measured ones. Concretely, the propagation constant β and characteristic impedance exhibited an maximum error of 3.9% and 6.4%, respectively. According to the results of this study, in a range of LT = 30 ~ 150 ㎛ for the length of periodic structures, the CPW3DC exhibited a passband characteristic of 121 GHz, and a very small dependency of characteristic impedance on frequency. We could realize a low impedance transmission line with a characteristic impedance lower than 20 Ω by using CPW3DCS with a line width of 20 ㎛, which was highly reduced, compared with a 3mm line width of conventional transmission line with the same impedance. The characteristic impedance was easily adjusted by changing LT. The above results indicate that the CPW3DC can be usefully used for the development of a wireless communication FISoC (fully-integrated system on chip) semiconductor device. This is the first report of a study on the bandwidth of the CPW3DC.

In this paper, a compact digital phase shifter to be used an active phased array antenna system for satellite communications was proposed. The even and odd mode analysis for a given reflection-type phase shifter, which uses a folded hybrid coupler as a base element, was performed and the design parameters were derived. Also, to verify experimentally the electrical performances of the proposed structure, X-band 4-bit digital phase shifter was designed and fabricated using Teflon soft substrate $({\varepsilon}_r; =\;2.17)$. Its circuit size was less than 3.5 cm $\times$ 3.0 cm, and it exhibited at least 50 % size reduction as compared with the conventional unfolded configuration. The experimental results of the fabricated phase shifter showed that the average insertion loss and insertion loss variation were less than 3.5 dB, $\pm$ 0.6 dB within the operating band, 7.9 ~ 8.4 GHz, respectively. And, input and output return loss were more than 10 dB, respectively. Also, the phase response of the phase shifter showed 4-bit operation with $\pm$3$^{\circ}$ rms phase error.

In this paper we suggest optimal positioning algorithm for DER(distributed energy resource)s near ocean side by using Newton-Rhapson load flow calculation. By installing DERs within urban area, electric power can be effectively transmitted to each loads without constructing additional large scale power stations and transmission lines. Therefore, DERs have attracted worldwide attention as urban area energy sources. However, there are quite a few studies for estimation of power loss due to DERs' location change within urban area Hence, in this study, an optimal positioning scheme for DERs is proposed in order to minimizing electrical power loss.

In this paper, we propose a novel feeding method that uses a windshield ground in a vehicle. The feeding method enables for various antennas to integrate easily in a vehicle windshield. To connect a coaxial feeding cable directly to the windshield ground, we inserted a coaxial-to-ground adapter between the cable and the ground, and reflection coefficients using the proposed feeding method were compared to that using a conventional feeding method. The size and position of the windshield ground were optimized in order to achieve a high radiation gain in the azimuth direction. Then the triangular WiBro patch antenna, incorporating the proposed feeding method, was designed and installed on a rear windshield of a commercial sedan. The antenna using the proposed feeding method shows a similar reflection coefficient, and it shows 2 dB increased average azimuth radiation gain compared to that using a conventional sash ground method. These results demonstrate that the proposed feeding method can be applicable for integrating multiple antennas in a rear windshield.

A high-performance wideband transition from microstrip to waveguide is proposed. This transition is designed by consideration of gradual field transformation and optimal impedance matching between microstrip line and fin-line. Clear design guidelines of proposed transition using fin-line taper with offset DSPSL (double-sided parallel stripline) are provided to determine the transition shape and the transition length. The fabricated transition exhibits less than 0.67 dB insertion loss per transition for frequencies from 85 to 108 GHz, and less than 1 dB insertion loss from 83 to over 110 GHz. Proposed transition is expected compact radar and various applications.

최근 국내에서 345kV GIL(Gas Insulated Transmission Lines) 시스템의 실 계통 도입이 검토되고 있다. 현재까지 GIL은 원자력 발전소에서 주변압기로부터 스위치 야드까지 1km 미만의 거리에 소규모로 설치되어 운영되고 있다. 하지만 향후 본격적으로 GIL 시스템이 도입된다면 발전소 구내뿐만 아니라 수 km 이상 되는 송전급 선로에도 적용될 것이 예상된다. 현재 GIL의 시스(외함)는 100~120m 정도마다 접지를 하는 직접접지 형태를 취하고 있으나 시스에 흐르는 순환전류가 부하전류의 97% 이상 된다. 따라서 이에 따른 손실이 많이 발생되고 있어 도체에 흘릴 수 있는 허용전류 값이 감소하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 GIL 시스템에 크로스본드 접지방식을 적용하였을 때 시스 순환전류 감소 효과에 대해서 검토하고, 아울러 뇌써지나 스위칭 써지에 의한 절연통의 열화 등에 대비하기 위하여 절연통보호장치의 설치 방안에 대해서 검토하였다.
