  • This paper handles, implementation of multiple access bidirectional serial communications protocol using two common DC power lines, whict are power supply and ground, connecting multiple devices. Communication between the host and the multiple clients are performed using unique packet data with device ID unique to each devices connected on the common power lines. Host initiates data communications by transmitting command packet to the designated client with the client's ID and the client responds by transmitting response packet to the host and in this way, multiple clients and host exchange the packet through the common power lines. The normal voltage of the power communication line maintains 24V corresponding to level 1 and the host drops the voltage to 12V on sending level 0 signal, also the clients normally keeps the line voltage to 24V use pull-down circuit to drop the voltage to 12V on sending level 1 signal. Power supply originates from the host, the host senses the voltage level of the power communication lines and when the clients activates pull down circuit to send level 0 signal and the voltage drops to 12V, the hosts switches power source from 24V to 12V. Also, when clients deactivate pull down circuit to send level 1 signal, the host senses the voltage increase and switches the power source from 12V to 24V. Experimental circuit is designed with one hosts and four clients and verified the power line voltage switching operation depending on the data signal levels on the power line. The proposed research result can be applied to two wire power communications system with one host and multiple low current consumption clients.

  • Power line communications can be utilized to build up the data transmission network wherever the electricity is available. This type of communication system could provide a basis for the network construction in many application areas which include the smart grid and home networks. On the other hand the power line communication is vulnerable to various types of interferences and noises. Also, its channel characteristics are constantly changing depending on the type and the amount of electrical loads connected to the network. Especially, the usage of DC power supply has been increased due to the explosive expansion of smart devices in our daily lives which result in the increased level of interferences on the power line channel. In this paper, the effect of the operation of the DC power supplies on the channel characteristics and the data transmission performance is analyzed through the experiments.

  • This paper presents a design study of a solid state power oscillator to replace the conventional magnetron. The operational conditions of a single-stage 300 W LDMOS power amplifier were fully characterized. The power module consisted of two amplifiers connected in parallel. A delay-line feedback loop was designed for self-oscillation. A phase shifter was inserted in the delay-line feedback loop for adjusting the round-trip phase. Experiments performed using the power oscillator showed an output power of 800 W and a DC-RF conversion efficiency of 58 % at 2.327 GHz. The measured results were in good agreement with those predicted by numerical simulations.

  • A(5,8) block binary line code is proposed. The new line code called MB58 has the properties of being dc-free and runlength-limited, and it is strictly bandwidth-limited to the Nyquist frequency, such that bandwidth efficiency is improved. This new code is a memoryless code with a simple decoding rule and capability of error monitoring. The power spectrum and the eye pattern of the new code are obtained by simulation, wherein spectral nulls at DC(f=0) and Nyquist frequency (f=1/2Ts) are clearly identified.

  • This paper proposes the analysis and design of a DC-side symmetrical zero-current-switching (ZCS) Class-D current-source driven resonant rectifier to improve the low power-factor and high line current harmonic distortion of lighting applications. An analysis of the junction capacitance effect of Class-D ZCS rectifier diodes, which has a significant impact on line current harmonic distortion, is discussed in this paper. The design procedure is based on the principle of the symmetrical Class-D ZCS rectifier, which ensures more accurate results and provides a more systematic and feasible analysis methodology. Improvement in the power quality is achieved by using the output characteristics of the DC-side Class-D ZCS rectifier, which is inserted between the front-end bridge-rectifier and the bulk-filter capacitor. By using this symmetrical topology, the conduction angle of the bridge-rectifier diode current is increased and the low line harmonic distortion and power-factor near unity were naturally achieved. The peak and ripple values of the line current are also reduced, which allows for a reduced filter-inductor volume of the electromagnetic interference (EMI) filter. In addition, low-cost standard-recovery diodes can be employed as a bridge-rectifier. The validity of the theoretical analysis is confirmed by simulation and experimental results.

  • This paper introduces the modified slip energy recovery system in order to improve its power factor and to reduce harmonics of line current waveforms. Twelve pulse line commutated converter with the chopper type IGBT is applied where the chopper is applied across the DC terminal and the chopped DC is fed to the converter operating as an inverter and then passed through the wye-wye and delta-wye transformer circuit. This scheme leads to be able to adjust the speed of the motor by the duty cycle of the chopper operating in PWM mode. The fuzzy logic controller is also introduced to the modified slip energy recovery system for keeping the motor speed to be constant when the load varies. The experimental results in testing the 0.22 kW wound rotor induction motor from no-load condition to rated condition show the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.

  • If we know the location of the hull block and the welding feeder in the shipyard, we can easily obtain the location information of the worker. That data is very useful for implementing a workplace safety monitoring system. However, it is difficult to apply a fixed communication network to the workplace due to the specificity of the hull structure and welding process. In this study, inductive power line communication, which can replace dedicated communication line, was reviewed. A ferrite core was used as an inductive coupler to be installed on the power cable of the welding machine, and a nano-crystalline core was applied as a coupler to be fastened to the support rod of the metal block. In order to visualize the operating principle of the proposed couplers, 3D modeling and finite element analysis were performed with the COMSOL AC/DC module. In the communication performance test using an aluminum profile, when the communication channel was formed by the contact of the welding electrode, the bandwidth was kept above 6 Mbps.

  • A new coding algorithm which has spectrum notches at the DC and Nyquist Frequency for maximizing the effect of the in-band pilot insertion in order to make the symbol timing or carrier recovery easy is proposed. It is shown that this algorithm uses one encoder and gives the similar spectrum characteristics to that of the existing OF00 code which uses two encoder. In this paper, the proposed new coding algorithm is explained andits spectrum characteristics is compared with the of OF00 code using computer simulation.
