Serial peripheral interface (SPI) has been identified as a bottleneck in many wireless sensing systems today. SPI is used almost universally as the physical connection between the microcontroller unit (MCU) and radios, storage devices, and many types of sensors. Virtually all wireless sensor nodes today perform up to twice as many bus transactions as necessary to transfer a given piece of data, as an MCU must serve as the bus master in all transactions. To eliminate this bottleneck, we propose the master-handoff protocol. After the MCU initiates reading from the source slave device and writing to the sink slave device, the MCU as a master becomes a slave, and either the source or the sink slave becomes the temporary master. Experiment results show that this master-handoff technique not only cuts the data transfer time in half, but, more importantly, also enables a superlinear energy reduction.

In the present paper the dynamics of the structure varying multibody systems caused by stick-slip motion with two-dimensional dry friction are analyzed. The methods to determine friction force both in stick and slip states are described. The direct method of considering the wagon bogie system as a structure varying system was used to consider two dimensional friction at the wheelset-side frame connection. The concept of friction direction angle used to determine the friction force components of two-dimensional dry friction both in the stick and slip motion states was used. A speed depended friction coefficient was used and described approximately by hyperbolic secant function. All switch conditions were derived and friction forces both for stick and slip states. Some simulation results are provided.

OPC is the preferred communication standard for sharing process control data at all levels of the enterprise and becomes the global standard, sends/receives the data with PLC programs of inspection system via network, and manages various data using OPC server. In this paper, we introduce the developed OPC client system for FPD inspection system with OPC server. To control inspection system through OPC server, we have developed libraries which consist of stage driver, switch driver, microscope driver, image processing, alignment, and task management modules. Also we have developed the test program to verify all functions precisely. We describe the mechanism of inspection system, OPC connection method, and programs.

In this paper we have studied the characteristics of temperature fields in a Molded Case Circuit Breaker (MCCB). A switch and a trip device are arranged in narrow space of the MCCB. Thus, thermal factors have been risen to important problem. The temperature rise means an energy loss and it becomes the reason of fatal fault in devices. Also, the temperature rise on the connection and the contact parts is regulated up to $115^{\circ}C$ and $105^{\circ}C$, respectively. Therefore, a study for preventing the temperature rise should be investigated. A numerical analysis method that has confidence might be preceded for this purpose. In order to verify the confidence of temperature field analysis, the results of the numerical analysis are compared with those of experimental one for the same model. Comparison results show a qualitatively good agreement within ${\pm}5%$ errors.

보안과 Broadcast로 인한 성능 저하는 LAN에서 다루어야 할 가장 중요한 부분이다. Virtual LAN은 논리적으로 네트워크 그룹을 형성하여 관리하는 방법으로 LAN의 성능저하를 개선 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서 제안하는 MAC Address VLAN 알고리즘은 FDB에 확장 VID 필드와 VID 연결 범위 테이블을 추가하여 VLAN에 중첩 특성을 부여하고, 중첩 범위를 동적으로 관리한다. 이 제안 알고리즘을 적용한 VLAN은 추가적인 장비 없이 네트워크 상의 정보와 자원을 공유 할 수 있다. 본 알고리즘은 Layer 2 기능을 수행하는 스위치나 브리지에 적용이 가능하다.

The terminal and core(wire conductor) in a Harness processing is connected by putting them in a applicator by virtue of a manual operation. A normal or abnormal condition of crimping connections is nearly determined by a skilled worker. In general, a skilled worker operates a press motor with a foot switch by pressing on foot and puts a wire conductor into a press with one hand. By doing so, sufficient efficiency is not obtained by a worker. In this paper, a basic study has done to make improve an efficiency by finding the normal arrangement out as to whether a terminal and wire conductor in Harness are placed on the right position or not with a quadrant plane photo position sensor.

Power semicondcutor인 IGBT MOSFET, GTO, SI-Thyristor등은 높은 스위치 신뢰성과 life time, 그리고 fast repetition rate 등을 지니고 있기 때문에 medium/High voltage영역에서 스위치 사용이 대두되어 왔으나, Thyratron이나 Trigatron(Gap switch)와 비교하여 낮은 전압/전류를 스위칭하기 때문에 전통적으로 직렬연결을 통해 high voltage 영역의 스위치로 사용되어 왔다. 하지만, 직렬연결되어 있는 각각의 power semiconductor와 gate driving circuit의 on/off synchronization이 맞지 않기 때문에 부하의 급격한 변화에 따른 전압의 balance에 문제가 가장 심각하게 대두되어 왔다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해서 gate driving circuit에서 제어를 해주는 방법과 power semiconductor에서 제어를 해주는 방법이 있으나 두 방식 모두 문제점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 zener clamping방식에서 벗어나 새로운 active clamping방식의 직렬연결을 제안했으며 시뮬레이션과 실험을 통해 나타난 이 결과들은 on/off transient 시 symmetry를 유지하는데 효과적이라는 것을 보여주고 있다.

본 논문은 DMX-512 프로토콜에서 모든 조명등을 직렬 연결하는 주소 자동할당(Address Auto-Allocation) 방안을 소개한다. 조명 산업의 통신 표준인 DMX512(ANSI E1.11) 프로토콜은 기본적으로 조명등을 구별할 수 있는 주소가 필요하다. 기존의 방식은 이 주소를 조명등에 어떠한 형태(DIP Switch, EEPROM에 저장)로든 할당하고 서로를 구별하여, DMX512 통신 데이터에서 자신의 색상 데이터를 얻을 수 있다. 또한, DMX512 프로토콜의 전기적인 특성상 조명등 32대 마다 분배기가 필요하다. 본 논문은 DMX512 프로토콜에서 모든 조명등을 직렬로 연결하여 주소 자동할당 기능을 갖게 함으로써 단말기 주소 부여에 대한 불편함을 해소하고, 분배기의 사용 또한 필요 없게 하였다. 본 논문에서 제안한 방안을 반도체 LED 조명등에 적용하여 ON-OFF제어, 디밍제어, 순차제어, 무지개제어 등이 동작하는 것을 확인하였다.

An active boost converter for a single phase SRM using series-parallel connected capacitors is proposed in this paper. The proposed active boost converter has two diodes and one power switch with an anti-parallel diode and one additional boost capacitor. The additional boost capacitor could be series or parallel connected to the dc-link capacitor to produce proper excitation and demagnetization voltage. The proposed active boost converter can easily achieve a fast excitation and demagnetization from the capacitor connection. In this paper, series and parallel connected converters are reviewed, and the detailed operating modes as well as the voltage characteristics of the proposed converter are analyzed. The simulation and experimental results shows the effectiveness of the proposed active boost converter.

This study presents the failure rate and repair rate of Superconducting Fault Current Limiter(SFCL) and adjacent distribution equipments. When the fault current penetrated SFCL, the supply of electric power to the customers can be partly continued. It is expected that SFCL makes to improve the reliability index of customers. Contrary to the expectations, the series connection between SFCL and distribution system could deteriorate the reliability index. To evaluate the reliability index in the distribution system including SFCL, the failure rate and repair rate of SFCL are required as well as that of distribution equipments. Also, the insertion of SFCL makes to change the failure rate and repair rate of adjacent equipments. This study proposes a method to calculate the failure rate and repair rate of a component combining SFCL and adjacent equipments.
