본 논문은 40 kV 나노초 펄스발생을 위한 모듈형 solid-state Marx modulator(SSMM) 설계에 대해 기술한다. 가속기 및 플라즈마 어플리케이션과 같은 다양한 응용분야에 요구되는 전압 및 전류 사양을 만족시키기 위해 10 kV(출력 전압), 50 ns(펄스폭), 20 ns(상승&하강 시간), 100 kHz(반복률)의 사양을 만족하는 단위모듈기반으로 모듈형 설계를 제안한다. 독립적인 제어가 가능한 4개의 단위모듈을 기반으로 제안된 SSMM은 임의의 출력 파워 및 임피던스를 만족시킬 수 있는 장점을 가지고 있다. 예를 들어, 모든 단위모듈의 위상을 같게 했을 때 출력전압을 증가시킬 수 있으며 각 모듈의 위상을 지연하였을 경우는 펄스의 반복률을 크게 높일 수 있다. 개발된 SSMM은 직렬 스택 MOSFET의 스위칭 성능을 향상시키기 위해 게이트 구동 회로는 동기 신호와 구동 전력을 제공하는 1 턴 변압기로 설계되었다. 출력 펄스의 폭과 하강시간을 최소화하기 위해 다이오드 대신 기생 커패시턴스에 저장된 에너지를 빠르게 방출하는 액티브 풀다운 회로가 적용되었다. 또한, 출력 펄스의 빠른 상승을 달성하기 위해 게이트의 라인 인덕턴스를 최소화하고 모든 게이트 신호의 동기화는 필수적이다. 개발된 ns급 펄스전원장치는 단위모듈을 기반으로 최대 펄스전압이 40 kV 까지 출력이 가능하며 이에 대한 상세설계 및 구현은 실험결과를 바탕으로 검증한다.

본 연구에서 개발된 새로운 유형의 마이크로파 대기압 플라즈마 공진기는 전송선로 이론을 기반으로 하여 임피던스 값을 $50{\varphi}$으로 설계함으로써 장비 자체에 구조적인 매칭이 이루어지도록 구성하였다. 안정적인 마이크로파 대기압 플라즈마 발생을 위해 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션(HFSS, High Frequency Structural Simulator)을 이용하여 공진기의 반사계수, 공명주파수, 급전점 그리고 전기장을 계산하였다. 전송선로의 이론에서 구한 급전점과 실제 제작한 마이크로파 대기압 플라즈마 공진기의 급전점 값이 큰 차이가 없음을 확인하였다. 이를 바탕으로 제작한 공진기는 급전점 5.6 mm에서 공명주파수는 0.89 GHz, 반사계수는 -37.5 dB임을 측정하였고 신호가 입사되는 정도는 90 % 이상인 것을 확인하였다. 공진기에서 발생된 플라즈마는 6 W의 정도의 저 전력으로 발생되었으며 기체유량과 인가전력에 따른 플라즈마의 기체온도를 측정하고 광 방출 특성을 고찰하였다. 실제 제작한 마이크로파 대기압 플라즈마 발생장치는 생의학적 응용을 포함한 여러 넓은 분야에서 활용될 전망이다.

A hybrid approach employing both the genetic algorithm and the newton-raphson method is proposed for the electrical impedance computed tomography (EICT) image reconstruction. Computational experiments based on the new concept have shown promising results for several noise-free models. In particular, the resistance distribution of the tested models having resistivity ratio up to 100:1 has been reconstructed sucessfully. Using the proposed mehtod, it is also possible to get the reconstruction by the conventional iterative approaches be difficult to vonverge to a robust solution. If the compution power is enhanced further, the proposed method is expected to stimulate the practical applications of the EICT technology in the near future.

This paper presents the multi-mode noise reduction of smart panels of which passive piezoelectric shunt damping is introduced. For the piezoelectric shunt damping, a passive shunt circuit composed of inductors and a load resistor is connected to the piezoelectric patch mounted on the panel structure. An electrical impedance model is introduced for the system based on the measured electrical impedance, and the criteria for maximum energy dissipation at the shunt circuit is used to find the optimal shunt parameters. For multi-mode shunt damping, the shunt circuit is modified by the introduction of a block circuit. Also the optimal location of the piezoelectric patch is studied by finite element analysis in order to cause the maximum admittance from the patch for each mode of the structure. An acoustic test is performed for the panels and a remarkable noise reduction is obtained in multiple modes of the panel structure.

The absorption of water into an anti-corrosive organic coating, such as alkyd and urethane resin coating, was investigated, using a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM). Anticorrosive properties of the coatings were also measured, by means of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The overall absorption of water in the coating is determined by the chemical nature of resin, and decreases with increasing thickness. The enhancement of anti-corrosive performance, through increase of coating thickness, was more remarkable in the case of the coating that hadlower equilibrium water absorption. The absorption kinetics curves were Fickian in nature. The EIS analysis confirmed that the resin, having lower equilibrium water absorption, shows higher anti-corrosive performan.

An equivalent electroacoustic circuit approach of estimating the sound absorption coefficient for parallel perforated plate system is proposed. The proposed approach is validated by comparing the calculated absorption coefficients of a parallel single layer perforated plate system with the values measured by the two-microphone impedance tube method for various porosity and the number of perforated plate. The sound absorbing performances of parallel and series perforated plate systems are compared and discussed from a standpoint of frequency bandwidth with sound absorption. The proposed approach is further extended to the parallel double layer perforated plate system.

In this paper, the transmitted noise reduction of smart panels of which passive piezoelectric shunt damping is used, is experimentally studied. Shunt damping experiments are based on the measured electrical impedance model. A passive shunt circuit composed of inductors, and a load resistor is devised to dissipate the maximum energy into the joule heat energy. For multi-mode shunt damping, the shunt circuit is redesigned by adding a blocking circuit. Also the optimal location of the piezoelectric patch is studied by FEM in order to cause the maximum admittance from the patch for each mode of aluminum plate. In results, the transmitted sound pressure level of panels is efficiently reduced for multi-modes

This paper proposes a simple and intuitive model-free torque-tracking control for rotary electro-hydraulic actuators. The undesirable natural-velocity-feedback effect is discussed by introducing mechanical impedance into the electro-hydraulic actuation system. The proposed model-free torque control comprises inner- and outer-loop control to achieve two control objectives. Inner-loop control reduces the mechanical impedance passively and optimally. To improve the tracking accuracy, a certain form of proportional-integral-derivative control is applied to the outer loop. The robustness of the proposed closed-loop system against external disturbances is demonstrated by transforming the two-loop control structure into a disturbance observer form. The proposed method is validated on a single joint electro-hydraulic actuator.

This letter presents a shorted-stub tapped branch-line coupler for dual-band applications. In the new design, a shorted stub is used to realize 90 phase change at two frequencies. Closed-form design equations are derived to find the characteristic impedance and electrical length of the proposed branch lines using the ABCD-matrix. To verify the design concept, a microstrip coupler operating at 0.8 and 1.85 GHz is fabricated and measured.

광 바이오 센서 시스템에서 Trans-Impedance amplifier (TIA)는 광검출기로부터 입력단으로 들어오는 미세한 전기 신호를 원하는 신호레벨까지 증폭하는 역할을 한다. TIA는 광 바이오 센서 시스템의 감도 (sensitivity)를 결정하는 매우 중요한 회로로 저잡음, 저전력, 낮은 입력 임피던스 등의 특성이 요구되어진다. 본 논문에서는 광 바이오 센서 시스템에서 요구되어 지는 저전력, 저잡음 성능을 구현하기 위하여 regulated cascode (RGC) TIA를 설계하였다. 본 연구에서는 기존 common gate (CG) 기법의 TIA에서 전류원 역할을 하는 current source를 저항으로 대체하고, local feedback stage를 이용하는 RGC TIA를 저잡음, 저전력 특성 및 회로 면적 감소의 장점을 갖도록 설계하였다.
