In order to protect the electrical fire, AFCI(Arc Fault Cirruit Interrupter) was obligated to adopted in United States of America since 2002. AFCI using by line resistor of neutral trace needs to compensate the resistance variation of the line resistor by temperature variation. In this paper, the ASIC including the temperature compensation circuit is implemented. The successful implementation is verified by showing the effectiveness of an electric and a temperature characteristics for ARC signals by simulation results.

In the paper, velocity controller of switching module and temperature controller for the high-voltage static var compensator are proposed. Because of the continuous increase in demand for electric power, transmission and distribution facilities of power plant are required. There is a bottleneck problem of transportation routes according to new construction and expansion of power transmission facilities. Therefore there are researches to maximize the utilization of existing facilities and to increase transmission capacity without new construction. The previous static var compensator detects voltage of input circuit of power, switches the SCR directly and generates switching noise. The proposed method increases switching velocity and decreases noise using switching control based on the voltage between both sides of SCR. Also the proposed method enhance the stability using realtime temperature control for heating of the system from increase of switching velocity. We experiment the velocity and temperature control of the proposed high-voltage static var compensator in the real environment and verify the performance of the proposed system by applying in the real field.

A temperature-compensating double fiber Bragg grating(FBG) sensor having two different FBGs in one fiber line was proposed for real time measurement of mechanical normal strain in structures. Measurement of mechanical strains of the aluminum beam surface by the double FBG sensor was performed under various thermal conditions, and the results were compared with those of electrical resistance strain gage. The FBG sensor fabricated in this study was able to measure accurately the mechanical strains without containing any thermal strain component.

In this paper, the method to linearize the non-linearity of diode and to compensate the characteristics change of diode with the temperature is studied. Square root circuit is used to linearize the non-linearity of diode about the input power, and two identical diodes and OP-Amps, which have variable reference, are used to compensate the characteristic change of diode with the temperature. As the result, designed diode power detector (with the square root circuit and temperature compensation circuit) can detect the output power linearly with the 0.23 $\pm$0.025V/dBm rate in the case the input power is greater than -6 dBm, and the designed circuit operates stably with no variation in the output data about the temperature change from the room temperature to 8$0^{\circ}C$.

A portable type K thermocouple thermometer is designed and fabricated to compensate the linearity to the high temperature $1000^{\circ}C$. The problems to be solved, which use a thermocouple thermometer are the compensation of the nonlinearity characters and reference compensation. The nonlinear character of the thermocouple is compensated, using an EPROM, and the reference compensation done using an IC AD595A. Before this compensation, there was the maximum error of $23.6^{\circ}C$(2.69%) at $876^{\circ}C$. However the results measured by the portable type K thermocouple thermometer fabricated show the character of the error of ${\pm}2^{\circ}C$(0.2%) in the range of the total temperature. This character satisfies the precision specifications of the type K thermal sensors in the range available $1000^{\circ}C$, which can be measured by the use of type K thermocouples. Therefore the portable type K thermocouple thermometer fabricated can be comparatively exactly used for the wide range of temperature of interest. Then this technique of compensating the nonlinear characters can be applied to the other kinds of thermal sensor compensation.

This paper suggests design methodology for thermal infrared data correction algorithms considering environmental temperature variations. First, a thermal infrared measurement model is suggested by a parameter-dependent first-order input-output equation using the relationship between infrared measurement data and model environmental parameters. In order to compensate the influence of environmental temperatures on infrared data, a compensation function is identified. Through experiments, the proposed algorithm is shown to reduce the influence of environmental temperatures on the infrared data effectively.

In this paper, a POS interfacing and temperature compensable LPG dispensing control system(LDCS) has been developed. A LDCS includes a 16-bit 80C196 microprocessor, RAM, ROM, video driver, and programmable peripheral devices. Based on gas flow encoding pulse, temperature-voltage conversion values and apparatus calibration values, the LDCS controls the LPG dispensing quantity with switching on or off the solenoid valves. The temperature compensation is performed with a 10-bit A/D conversion and its range is from +7$0^{\circ}C$ to -3$0^{\circ}C$ with a 0.5$^{\circ}C$ resolution.

Among the many ways to measure the flow of fluid the hot air wind speed sensor is a device for measuring the speed or temperature by heat transfer of a fluid. However, the hot wire wind speed sensor is sensitive to external environmental factors, and has a disadvantage of inaccuracy due to ambient temperature, humidity, and signal noise. In order to compensate for this disadvantage, advanced technology has been introduced by adding temperature compensation circuits, but it is expensive. In order to solve this problem, this paper studies the wind speed sensor that does not need temperature compensation. Heated wind speed sensors are very vulnerable to the ambient temperature, which is generated by electronic circuits, even among external environmental factors. in order to improve this, the auxiliary heating element is additionally installed in the heating element to control a constant temperature difference between the auxiliary heating element and the heating element.

The smaller diameter cone penetrometer has been widely used to estimate the characteristics of local area due to high vertical resolution. The half-bridge cirucits have been adopted to measure the mechnical strength of soil through the smaller diameter cone penetrometer due to the limitation of the areas for configuring the full-bridge circuit. The half-bridge circuit, however, is known as being easily affected to the temperature variation. The objective of this study suggests the temperature-compensated method in mini-cones. The diameter and length of the mini-cone is designed to 15mm and 56mm. The load cell of the mini-cone is extended about 54mm on the behind of the mini-cone to reflect the only temperature variation. The full-bridge circuit is installed to measure the temperature-compensated values in the mini-cone and the half-bridge circuit is also organized to compare the temperature compensated values with uncompensated values. The seasonal variation tests are performed to define the effect of temperature variation under summer and winter temperature condition. The densification tests are also carried out to investigate temperature effects during penetration. The measured mechanical resistances with temperature-compensated method show more reliable and reasonable values than those measured by thermal uncompensated system. This study suggests that the temperature-compensated method of the mini-cone may be a useful technique to obtain the more reliable resistances with minimizing the temperature effect.
