본 논문에서는 고조파 정합 기법을 이용하여 고효율 GaN HEMT 전력 증폭기를 설계 및 제작하고, 그 특성을 측정하였다. 고효율 특성을 얻기 위해 고조파 로드풀 시뮬레이션을 활용하였다. 즉, 기본 주파수뿐만 아니라 2차, 3차 등의 고조파에서 최적의 부하 임피던스를 찾아내었다. 이러한 고조파 로드풀 시뮬레이션 결과를 바탕으로 출력 정합 회로를 설계하였다. 제작한 전력 증폭기는 중심 주파수 1.85 GHz에서 선형 전력 이득 20 dB 및 33.7 dBm의 $P_{1dB}$(1 dB gain compression point) 특성을 보였다. 그리고, 출력 전력 38.6 dBm에서 80.9 %의 최대 전력 부가 효율(Power Added Efficiency: PAE)을 나타냈으며, 이는 기존에 설계된 고효율 전력 증폭기와 비교했을 때 아주 우수한 효율 특성이다. 또한, W-CDMA 신호입력에 대한 측정 결과, 28.4 dBm의 평균 출력 전력에서 27.8 %의 PAE와 5 MHz offset 주파수에서 -38.8 dBc의 ACLR (Adjacent Channel Leakage Ratio)을 보였다. 그리고, 다항식 맞춤 방식의 디지털 전치 왜곡(Digital Predistortion: DPD) 선형화 알고리듬을 구현하여 제작된 전력 증폭기의 ACLR을 6.2 dB 정도 향상시킬 수 있었다.

본 논문에서는 새로운 고조파 차단 부하 회로를 제안하고, 이 회로를 이용한 고효율 F급 전력 증폭기를 설계하였다. 제안된 부하 회로는 F급 전력 증폭기의 효율을 향상에 있어서 큰 기여도를 갖는 2차와 3차 고조파에서 종단 임피던스를 제어한다. 제안된 부하 회로의 2차와 3차 고조파 입력 임피던스는 각각 단락 및 개방 임피던스를 보인다. 제작된 구조의 부하 회로는 F급 전력 증폭기의 고조파를 억압하기에 충분한 24 dB 이상의 감쇠 특성도 보인다. 부하 회로를 이용한 F급 전력 증폭기의 측정 결과는 최대 출력($P_{1dB}$) 35.17 dBm에서 드레인 효율 75.7%, 전력 부가 효율 71.3 %를 보였다.

본 논문에서는 WiMAX 주파수 대역(2.3~2.7 GHz)에서 동작하는 4 W급 소형 전력증폭기 모듈을 설계, 제작하였다. 본 연구에 사용된 능동소자는 최근 발표된 Triquint사의 GaN HEMT 소자(Bare-chip)이다. 본 논문에서는 전력증폭기를 설계하기 위하여, 먼저 자체 제작한 조정용 지그(jig)를 사용하여 상용 칩의 최적 임피던스를 실험을 통해 추출하였으며, 추출한 임피던스를 적용한 EM-simulation으로 F급 설계를 행하였다. 소형의 패키지(모듈)에 집적하고 정합하기 위하여 인덕터와 커패시터는 각각 spiral inductor, interdigital capacitor로 구현하였다. 소형으로($4.4{\times}4.4\;mm^2$) 패키지된 전력증폭기 모듈의 경우, 출력은 36 dBm, 효율은 50 % 그리고 2차 및 3차 고조파에 대한 고조파 억제는 40 dBc 이상의 특성을 보였다.

In order to monitor operating performance of contaminated outdoor insulators, a wavelet-based flashover prediction method is proposed. In most cases, the low-frequency components, namely, fundamental, $3^{rd}$, and $5^{th}$ harmonic components have been mainly used for the sake of the spectral analysis of the leakage current. However, in this paper, the detail coefficients of wavelet transform representing high-frequency components are used as important information to predict a flashover in the contaminated insulator. Experimental results verify that the proposed method has a superior capability for flashover prediction.

Micromachining using the DPSS 3rd Harmonic Laser (355nm) has outstanding advantages as a UV source in comparison with Excimer lasers in various aspects such as maintenance cost, maskless machining, high repetition rate and so on. It also has the greater absorptivity of many materials in contrast to other IR sources. In this paper, the process for micro-drilling of blind hole in Cu/PI/Cu substrate with the DPSS UV laser and the scanning device is investigated by the experimental methods. It is known that there is a large gap between the ablation threshold of copper and that of PI. We use the Archimedes spiral path for the blind hole with different energy densities to ablate the different material. Finally, the blind via hole of diameter 100$\mu\textrm{m}$ and 50$\mu\textrm{m}$ was drilled.

This paper proposes a bi-directional current switch with snubber regeneration using Power MOSFETs and this paper proposes to use a loss-less snubber with switching device to perform soft-switching. It results in not only decreasing switching loss in the device drastically, but also improving input ac current waveform distortion. The computer simulation results show that the input current waveform and show the requirements necessary for the elimination of the 3rd harmonic component. We also show the procedure to design the parameters of the converter.

In recent years electric devices and telecommunication facilities were often damaged by surge generated lightning discharge. When the service was interrupted by failure of electrical devices due to surge the social loss is very enormous. Therefore in order to protect electrical systems against lightning, SPDs(Surge protective device) have been used But damaged SPDs often make some troubles like fire and interrupt of service. In this work, 3rd harmonic leakage current defection method was applied as the diagnosis of SPD degradation and the effectiveness of this method was verified by field survey.

This paper presents the results of spectrum analysis of leakage current waveforms on contaminated polymer insulators under fog conditions. This is a basic study on development of a monitoring for aging degree and surface pollution state using distortion rate(%) of 3rd and 5th harmonics according fundamental frequency[60Hz] under environment conditions. Arcing on the surface was always associated with distortion in the leakage current ; hence the low frequency components of the leakage current can be used as a means to evaluate the surface degradation. The results indicate that the distortion rate by spectrum analysis is available for the monitoring of contamination condition of EPDM Polymer insulators.

A new design of cylindrical capacitive sensor(CCS) for the displacement measurement of precision active magnetic bearing(AMB) spindle is presented in this paper. This research is motivated by the problem that existing 4-segment CCS is still sensitive to the $3^{rd}$ harmonic component of the geometric errors of a rotor. The procedure of designing new CCS starts from the modeling and error analysis of CCS. The angular size of CCS is set up as a design parameter, and new 8-segment CCS is introduced to possess an arbitrary angular size. The optimum geometry of CCS to minimize the effect of geometric errors is determined through minimum norm approach. Experimental results with test rotors have confirmed the improvement in geometric error suppression.

UV laser ablation of polyimide is a combination of photochemical and photothermal mechanism. Photochemical mechanism is that molecular bonds are broken by photon energy and photothermal is evaporation and melt expulsion. When the laser processing, the etching depth needs to be calculated for prediction of processing result. In this paper, in order to predict the laser etching depth of polyimide by UV laser with the wavelength of 355nm, the theoretical model which includes both the photothermal and the photochemical effect was introduced. The model parameters were obtained by comparing with experimental results. The 3rd harmonic $Nd:YVO_4$ laser system was used in the experiment. From these experimental and theoretical results, the laser ablation of a polyimide was verified to achieve the highest quality microstructure.
