This paper deals with the implementation of three-phase VSI systems which can control the power regenerated from DC bus line to AC supply. The overall system consists of the line-to-line voltage and line current sensors, an actual power calculator using d-q transformation method, a complex power controller with PI control scheme, a gating signal generator for modified ｑ-conduction mode, a DPLL for frequency followup, and Power circuits. Control board is constructed by using a 32-bit DSP TMS32C32, two EFLDs , six ADCs, and a DAC. To verify the performance of the proposed system, we designed and constructed the propotype with the power rating of 5kVA at AC 220V. Experimental results show that the regenerated active power is well controlled to its command vague and the regenerated reactive power still remained at nearly zero through all operating modes.

A receiver architecture with low complexity for chirp spread spectrum (CSS) of IEEE 802.15.4a is proposed. To demodulate the received signal at the highest signal to noise power ratio, matched filter is generally adopted for the receiver of wireless communication systems. It is, however, not resonable to adjust the matched filter to the receiver of CSS whose objectives are low complexity, low cost and low power consumption since complexity of the matched filter is high. In this paper, we propose a new receiver architecture using differential multiplication and accumulator not matched filter for demodulation. Also, bi-orthogonal decoder implemented by only adder/subtractor is proposed. The hardware resources for implementation are reduced in the proposed receiver architecture, although bit error rate performance is low compared with the receiver architecture based on the matched filter.

This paper presents an Implementation of digital high-performance position sensorless control system of Reluctance Synchronous Motor(RSM) drives with Direct Torque Control(DTC). The system consists of stator flux observer, speed and torque estimator, two digital hysteresis controllers, an optimal switching look-up table, Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor(IGBT) voltage source inverter, and TMS320C31 DSP board. The stator flux observer Is based on the combined voltage and current model with stator flux feedback adaptive control of which inputs are current and voltage sensed on motor terminal for wide speed range. In order to prove the suggested sensorless control algorithm for industrial field application, we have some simulation and actual experiment at low and high speed range. The developed high-performance speed control by fully digital system are shown a good response characteristic of control results and high performance features using 1.0[kW] RSM having 2.57 reluctance ratio of $L_d/L_q$.

For a grid-connected inverter in distributed generation systems, the current control is essential, and recently, the predictive current control based on a high performance digital signal processors (DSP) to satisfy a fast dynamic response has been widely investigated. However, the performance of predictive current control is degraded by the time delay due to digital implementation, the parameter and measured value errors and the interference of noise, and also theses make system even unstable. Therefore, this paper proposes the predictive current control using grid voltage observer for grid-connected inverter applications. To determine the relevant voltage observer gain, the low-order harmonics of grid voltage are considered, and the effect of filter parameter errors is analyzed. The proposed method has a fast current response capability, the robustness to noise and simple implementation due to voltage sensorless control and the robust current control performance to low-order grid harmonics. The feasibility of the proposed method is verified by simulation and experimental results.

본 연구는 방사선 영상센서 적용을 위한 $HgI_2$ 필름의 특성 평가에 관한 것으로서 X-선 조사조건별 인가전압에 따른 검출신호 특성을 조사하였다. 기존의 $HgI_2$ 검출기의 경우 신호량이 크다는 장점이 있으나 노이즈의 양이 크다. 이에 대한 해결책으로 보호층을 삽입하나 이 경우 X-선 조사에 따른 시간 응답 특성이 있어서 전하트랩현상(tailing effect)에 의한 영향이 크게 존재하였다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결하고자 보호층으로써 a-Se 을 삽입하여 기존의 $HgI_2$ 검출기에서 사용되어지는 parlyene이 삽입된 검출기와 전기적 특성을 측정, 비교해보고자 한다. 제작방식으로는 대면적 제작이 용이한 스크린 프린팅 방식을 이용하여 두께 $140\;{\mu}m$와 $3\;cm\;{\times}\;2\;cm$ 면적으로 제조하였다. 측정결과, a-Se을 보호층으로 사용한 $HgI_2$ 필름이 민감도는 거의 비슷하나 누설전류가 안정화 되는데 걸리는 감소시간(decay time)이 parlyene을 사용한 구조에 비해 훨씬 낮았다. 또한 X선에 대한 민감도는 기존의 a-Se에 비해 월등히 높아 적은 방사선 조사량(radiation dose)에서도 신호검출이 가능하여 저선량이 요구되는 방사선 투시촬영(digital fluoroscopy) 적용에 유용할 것으로 기대된다.

With the help of technical development in the electronic industries, the electronic devices employing the cutting-edged technology are spread in all the area requiring electromagnetic communications. Especially, because of the presence of electronic devices in a variety of research fields like automotive vehicle, train, and aircraft, the research area such as the malfunction and critical damage of the internal system and microwave devices due to the unexpected radiated high-powered EM effects are very important even for the possible occurrence of human damage. In this paper, the effects of electromagnetic fields into the cable connecting the electronic devices and many sensors inside the target structure is treated because of potential malfunction or hardware disorders. In addition, correlation function and transmission line theory have been employed for the analysis of the induced current on the cable inside an electrically large resonant structure.

Natural magnetic fields are attenuated by electrically conductive water. For that reason, marine magnetotelluric surveys have collected data at long periods (1000-100 000 s). The mantle structure has been the main target of seafloor magnetotelluric measurements. To ascertain crustal structure, however, electromagnetic data at shorter periods are important, e.g. in investigations of megathrust earthquake zones, or in natural resource surveys. To investigate of the former, for example, electromagnetic data for periods of less than 1000 s are necessary. Because no suitable ocean bottom electromagnetometer (OBEM) has been available, we have developed a small OBEM and ocean bottom electrometer (OBE) system with a high sample rate, which has an arm-folding mechanism to facilitate assembly and recovering operations. For magnetic observation, we used a fluxgate sensor. Field observations were undertaken to evaluate the field performance of our instruments. All instruments were recovered and their electromagnetic data were obtained. Results of the first experiment show that our system functioned well throughout operations and observations. Results of other field experiments off Tottori support the claim that the electromagnetic data obtained using the new OBEM and OBE system are of sufficient quality for the survey target. These results suggest that this device removes all instrumental obstacles to measurement of electromagnetic fields on the seafloor.

The focus control mechanism of the multi-purpose camera can be required for the better quality image acquisition. A good image acquisition through the hardware system including the optics and image sensor, has to be processed before the post correction for improvement of image quality. In the case of the high-resolution satellite camera, the focus control is not a necessity, unlike a normal camera due to a fixed optical system, but may be required due to various reasons. Although there is a basic focus control method using a motor for satellite electronic optical camera, a focus control method using thermal control can be a good alternative because of its various advantages in design, installation, operation, contamination, high reliability and etc. In this paper, we describe the design method and implementation results for the focus control mechanism using the temperature sensor and heater installed in the telescope structure. In the proposed focus control method, the measured temperature information is converted into temperature data by the Kalman filter and the converted temperature data are used in PI controller for the thermal focus control.

Pressure control of hydraulic pump using SRM with pressure predictor and direct torque control method is presented in this paper. Nowadays, high efficiency and high performance motor drive is much interested in hydraulic pump system. But the hydraulic pump system has an inherent defect that its dynamic behavior causes by interaction between the sensor and hydraulic load. It will make low performance of whole system, even unstable and oscillatory. Proposed system integrates pressure predictor and direct instantaneous torque control (DITC). The pressure predictor includes Smith predictor, which is easy to improve unstable or long oscillation in traditional negative feedback control and popular PID control architectures. And DITC method can reduce inherent torque ripple of SRM, and develop smooth torque to load, which can increase stability and improve the torque response of SR drive. So high dynamic performance and stabilization can achieved proposed hydraulic system. At last, the proposed hydraulic system is verified by simulation and experimental results.

This paper presents a nature-inspired wideband sprout-leaf shaped antenna with end-fire radiation pattern. A sprout-leaf shape angled-radiator was designed for wide beamwidth radiation patterns for motion detection sensors. An extended and truncated ground plane was used as a reflector for end-fire radiation patterns. To feed the balanced radiator, a broadband microstrip (MS) to coplanar stripline (CPS) balun was utilized with excellent amplitude and phase balance. The proposed antenna demonstrates wide frequency bandwidth from 8.5 to 14.5 GHz with wide beamwidth and the radiation efficiency of 90%. The measured gain is from 4 to 5 dBi and front-to-back ratio was 10 to 20 dB. It has been shown that the proposed antenna can be used for imaging sensors, phased array systems, and radars that require a wide bandwidth and a directional radiation pattern.
