Purpose : The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of core stability training at deep abdominal muscle for balance control of hemiplegic patient. Method : The subject of this study was a 47-year-old man with right hemiplegia. He was treated five times a week for three weeks with core stability training at deep abdominal muscles. Evaluation tool was used Functional reach test(FRT), timed up and go test(TUG) and one leg standing for stroke patients. Result : The FRT distance increase, TUG time decrease, one leg standing time increase core stability training at deep abdominal muscles for right hemiplegia improved was the ability for maintain balance. Posture and control of trunk stability are changing posture, and so which showed significant improve of total balance control. Conclusion : The result of this study showed that core stability training at deep abdominal muscles is an effective treatment for balance control. Therefore, it could be considered as a treatment method in the rehabilitation of stroke patient with poor postural control and imbalance, although further studies are needed.

This paper focuses on the Current-Voltage concurrent control method devoted to the multiple LED (light-emitting diode) string driver. Isolated DC to DC converter with cascaded chopping switch is proposed for smart lighting system such as light with sensor or back light unit of display, which need to control the current of parallel connected multiple LED stings and regulate DC voltage for micro controller for brightness control. The proposed circuit regulates the current of parallel connected multiple LED strings and additional DC voltage output simultaneously. To verify the performance, experimental results are presented based on the prototype board. 5V, 1A voltage mode electric load and two LED strings with different forward voltages are used for output loads. 23W output power is achieved and measured efficiency is in the range of 85%-87%

In order to promote the application of switched reluctance machines (SRM) in electric vehicles (EVs), the braking torque closed-loop control of a SRM is proposed. A hysteresis current regulator with the soft chopping mode is employed to reduce the switching frequency and switching loss. A torque estimator is designed to estimate the braking torque online and to achieve braking torque feedback. A feed-forward plus saturation compensation torque regulator is designed to decrease the dynamic response time and to improve the steady-state accuracy of the braking torque. The turn-on and turn-off angles are optimized by a genetic algorithm (GA) to reduce the braking torque ripple and to improve the braking energy feedback efficiency. Finally, a simulation model and an experimental platform are built. The simulation and experimental results demonstrate the correctness of the proposed control strategy.

This paper represent improved on-line turn off angle control schemes for switched reluctance motors based on current control. For the purpose of finding the optimal commutation switching angle point with improved controller, it is utilized turn on and turn off position calculation with inductance vs. current vs. not linkage analysis method. The goal of proposed paper is the maximization of the energy conversion per stroke and torque ripple reduction and obtaining approximately flat-topped current waveform. The proposed control scheme is demonstrated simulation and on a prototype experimental system.

This paper presents a circuit design aimed at generating the required reference voltage and temperature sensor voltage in conjunction with an ADC, utilizing the current generated by temperature characteristics of BJT components for sensor data conversion. Additionally, two control methods are introduced to reduce the standard deviation of the circuit, resulting in over a ten-fold decrease in standard deviation. The proposed circuit occupies an area of 0.057mm² and was implemented using 55nm RF process.

This paper discribes a study on the switching character of MOS-GTO and the design of gate drive circuit. Chopping power supply converter, synchronious and asyncronious motor speed adjustment, inverter, etc., needs low drive energy "high frequency" switches. To fulfill these need, switches must have rapid switching time and insulated gate control. MOS-GTO structure is well suited to these constraints. The power switch is serial installation of a GTO thyrister and a MOS Transistor. The gate of the GTO is linked to positive pole of the cascode structure via a MOS high voltage transistor and ground via a transient absorber diode. This high performance MOS-GTO assembly considerably increases the strength which facilitate the drive of GTO thyristers.

This paper presents a current-source-inverter based on a buck-boost configuration and its application for residential photovoltaic system. The proposed circuit has five switches. Among them, only one switch acts as chopping, and the other determine the polarity of output; therefore, it can reduce the switching loss. Because the input inductor current is operated on the discontinuous conduction mode, high power factor can be achieved without additional input current controller. So the overall system shows a simple structure. The operational modes are analysed in depth, and then it was verified through the experimental results using a 150 [W] prototype equipped with digital signal processor TMS320F241.

BLDC 전동기는 선형적인 토크 대 전류, 속도 대 전압 특성을 갖고 있으며 기계적, 전기적인 잡음이 없고, 가감속 제어가 용이하며, 토크 대 관성의 비가 매우 높아 소형으로 높은 출력을 낼 수 있다는 장점을 가지고 있다. 그러나 전기자 전류의 전환(Commutation)시 고정자 권선의 인덕턴스 성분과 역기전력으로 인해 발생되는 전류 리플은 BLDC 전동기 토크리플의 중요한 원인이 된다. 이에 본 논문에서는 고속 연산이 가능하고 별도의 외부 메모리 없이 칩 하나로 모든 동작을 할 수 있는 TMS320LF2407 DSP칩을 사용, Hard-chopping PWM 방식을 이용하여 전류 리플을 감소시켰으며, 이를 시뮬레이션 및 실험을 통해 증명하였다.

This paper proposes a novel active frequency drift (AFD) method for the islanding prevention of grid-connected photovoltaic inverter. To detect the islanding phenomenon of grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) inverters concerning about the safety hazards and the damage to other electric equipments, many kinds of anti-islanding methods have been presented. Among them, AFD method using chopping fraction enables the islanding detection to drift up (or down) the frequency of the voltage during the islanding situation. In this paper, injecting the periodic zero current into the basic AFD method is proposed. This proposed method shows the analytical design value of cf to meet the test procedure of IEEE Std. 1547 with various load conditions. Detection of islanding is verified using simulation tool PSIM.

Switched Reluctance Motor is simple structure which used Accel/Decel application field because of cheap cost and High efficiency. For driving this motor, it is essential to need position sensor and driving converter. so, many topology and sensor have been studied untill now. Asymmetric Bridge Converter which has been known for the best control and efficiency is used chopping to control current of motor coil according to changing of motor speed. But this is embossed as a fault because it come to bring switching loss due to rapid switching frequency. In this paper, I applied to Soft Switching Mode by Partial Resonant Method to compensate these fault and to show the usabilityness of low switching device.
