The core technologies of the current transport network are OAM and protection switching to meet the sub-50ms protection switching time via a path redundancy when a link or node failure occurs. The transport networks owned by public network operators, central/local governments, and major enterprises are individually configured and managed with service resiliency in each own protected sub-network. When such networks are cascaded, it is also important to provide a node resiliency between two protected sub-networks. However, the linear protection switching in packet transport networks, such as MPLS-TP and Carrier Ethernet, does not define a solution of dual node interconnection. Although Ethernet ring protection switching covers the dual node interconnection scheme, a large amount of duplicated data frames may be flooded when a failure occurs on an adjacent (sub) ring. In this paper, we suggest a dual node interconnection scheme with linear protection switching technology in multiple protected sub-networks. And we investigate how various protected sub-network combinations with a proposed linear or ring protection process impact the service resiliency of multiple protected sub-networks through extensive experiments on link and interconnected node failures.

This paper proposes a reliability enhancement of industrial real-time Ethernet using master redundancy method for NPPs(Nuclear Power Plants). In this paper, Ethernet Powerlink is investigated for distributed control systems for NPPs considering real-time and reliability performance. The proposed method can reduce a master switch-over time using PReq signal when Ethernet Powerlink master(Managing Node) failure was occurred. Using the OPNET simulation results, the performance enhancement of master switch-over time of Ethernet Powerlink is verified for NPPs.

In this paper, we consider a full duplexing (FD) wireless cellular network where a central base station (BS) works in the FD mode while the downlink (DL) and uplink (UL) users work in the time division duplexing (TDD) mode. Since this FD system induces the inter-user interference from UL user to DL user, the main challenge for maximizing the system performances is user scheduling that makes a pair of DL user and UL user to use the same radio resource simultaneously. We formulate an optimization problem for user pairing to maximize the cell capacity and propose a suboptimal user scheduling algorithm with low complexity. This scheduling algorithm is designed in a way where the DL user with a better signal quality has a higher priority to choose its UL user that causes less interference. Simulation results show that the FD system using the proposed user scheduling algorithm achieves the optimal performance and significantly outperforms the conventional TDD system in terms of the cell capacity.

In a full-duplex (FD) wireless cellular network, uplink (UL) users induce the severe inter-user interference to downlink (DL) users. Therefore, a user scheduling that makes a pair of DL user and UL user to use the same radio resource simultaneously influences the system performances significantly. In this paper, we first formulate an optimization problem for user scheduling to minimize the occurrence of outage, aiming to guarantee the quality of service of users, and then we propose a suboptimal user scheduling algorithm with low complexity. The proposed scheduling algorithm is designed in a way where the DL user with a worse signal quality has a higher priority to choose its UL user that causes less interference. Simulation results show that the FD system using the proposed user scheduling algorithm achieves the optimal performance and significantly decreases the outage probability compared with the conventional half-duplex cellular system.

Single-Carrier Frequency division multiplexing (SC-FDM) has been selected for the uplink transmission technique in 3GPP-LTE since it has an advantage of low peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) in user's perspective. The receiver typically uses a frequency domain equalizer, which, however, suffers from noise boost and/or residual ISI especially when the channel has deep nulls. In this paper, we propose using turbo equalizer to mitigate such a problem. We provide link level performance comparison and an insight into how many iteration is needed for reasonable performance and complexity.

We propose a novel method to reduce laser chirp and improve modulation performance in semiconductor laser by using dual-electrode structure. Dual-electrode structure is realized by segmenting a electrode on top of gain medium, as was the case of edge emitting laser diode, into electrically isolated two electrodes. By using the proposed structure, we have experimentally achieved a reduction of laser spectral width of 0.23 nm and an improvement of 2.5-dB receiver sensitivity at an 80-km fiber transmission for 10-Gbps NRZ (non-return-to zero) data stream.

한국형 에너지 관리 시스템 (이하 K-EMS)의 운영에 있어 현장 데이터 취득은 EMS의 기본 기능이라 할 수 있는 SCADA의 중요 요소이다. 특히 단일 통신 회선으로 구성된 K-EMS의 구조적 특성으로 인해 RTU 통신 회선의 단절은 주요 EMS Application의 운영에 영향을 미칠 수 있으므로, 예비회선 역할을 할 수 있는 데이터 Path를 확보하는 것은 이중화된 통신 회선을 갖는 것과 동일한 효과를 가질 수 있다. 이에 센터 간(Local, Remote1 and Remote2) FEP(Front End Processor)를 통해 RTU 데이터를 교환하는 데이터링크 시스템을 개발하였다.

본 논문에서는 3상 IPM을 사용하여 2상 유도전동기를 위한 2레그형 인버터를 설계하였다. 3상 IPM은 6개의 스위칭 소자를 내장하고 있어서 이중 4개는 2레그형 인버터로 사용하고, 나머지 2개는 역률제어 회로에 이용할 수 있다. 이렇게 하면 하드웨어의 추가를 최소화하면서 역률제어 기능을 갖는 2레그형 인버터를 구현할 수 있다. 2레그형 인버터에서는 반드시 직류링크에 2개의 커패시터를 직렬로 연결하는데, 입력 전원의 반주기 마다 각각의 커패시터에 충방전 동작이 수행된다. 이러한 동작으로 인해 2개의 커패시터에 전압 불균형이 발생할 수 있고 커패시터 용량이 서로 다를 경우에는 이 전압 리플이 더욱 커지게 되며, 이것은 전동기에 불평형 전류를 공급하게 되어 전동기의 토크리플을 발생시킨다. 본 논문에서는 직류링크의 전압 불균형 문제가 전동기에 미치는 영향을 분석하고, 이러한 전압 불균형을 보상하여 전동기의 토크리플을 제거하고 동작특성을 개선하는 방법을 제안하며, 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통하여 이를 검증한다.

In this paper, we first review a concept of hybrid division duplexing (HDD) scheme, which has been proposed as a new type of duplexing scheme useful for a next generation mobile communication system and its implementation issues, including the unified radio resource management for HDD scheme. The HDD scheme maintains the advantages of both TDD and FDD at the same time while providing a useful structure to control the inter-cell interference, caused by an asymmetric traffic load of multimedia services over uplink and downlink in the TDD scheme. Employing two frequency bands, one for TDD scheme and the other for FDD scheme, uplink is operating under the TDD scheme only, while downlink is operating under the TDD or FDD scheme, depending on the location of mobile station. In the HDD scheme, therefore, it must determine a type of duplexing scheme to employ in the downlink and futhermore, a ratio of uplink and downlink duration to meet a given traffic load of asymmetric service, which requires some unified radio resource management for handling the subsequent inter-cell interference. In this paper, we propose a distributed adaptive control approach as a means of unified radio resource management for a HDD system that maximizes the overall system efficiency by fully utilizing the resource in TDD band, while minimizing the inter-cell interference.
