본 논문에서는 양방향 전력 전송을 가능케 해주는 Dual-active-bridge (DAB) 컨버터에서, 고주파 변압기 대신 무선 전력 전송 코일을 이용한 시스템을 제안한다. 기존의 DAB 컨버터에서 주로 사용되는 고주파 변압기는 Core-type 또는 shell-type으로 만들어지며, 1차 측 권선과 2차 측 권선이 자기적으로 강하게 결합되어 높은 전력 전달 효율을 가지도록 만든다. 이런 DAB 컨버터를 직/병렬 연결해 MV-DC to LV-DC로 변환하는 반도체 변압기 등을 구성할 때, 1차 측 권선과 2차 측 권선 사이에는 절연 문제와 1차 측 스위치 회로와 2차 측 스위치 회로, 그리고 고주파 변압기가 각각 따로 절연해야 하는 문제점이 있다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 DAB 컨버터는 1차 측과 2차 측이 수 cm 이격되어 있어 1차 측과 2차 측 사이의 자기적 결합이 굉장히 약하다. 따라서 1차 측과 2차 측 코일을 커패시터로 공진시켜 전력을 전달하는 무선전력전송(Loosely Coupled Inductive Wireless Power Transfer)을 이용한다. 무선전력전송의 공진 topology는 Parallel-Series로 선택했고, impedance transformation 회로를 추가했다.

DFT calculations have been performed on several substituted 1,4-diaza-1,3-butadienes (1,4-DABs) with electron donating and withdrawing groups at the terminal two nitrogens to investigate the reactivity of Diels-Alder reaction with acrolein. The calculated FMO (Frontier Molecular Orbital) energies for the optimized 1,4-disubstituted-1,4-DABs have been used to explain both normal and inverse electron demand Diels-Alder reactions. It is shown that the electron donating and withdrawing substituents lead to the normal(HOMO diene controlled) and inverse electron demand (LUMO diene controlled) Diels-Alder reactions, respectively.

The Korea terrestrial broadcasting has TV and Radio, DMB. The TV broadcasting was converted from the analogue method to the digital method at the end of 2012. However the radio broadcasting is still in analogue method. The introduction of digital radio technology will bring many benefits such as high-quality of sound, various additional services and increase of efficiency in frequency utilization. In many countries, the radio broadcasting is been servicing in digital method. The discussion was begun on this year for the introduction of digital radio technology in Korea. So, to prepare against introduction of DAB system among digital radio technology, this paper proposes channel allocation method for each local radio broadcasting and the composition of national SFN, and proves the proposed method through the interference analysis.

Three-port dual-active bridge (DAB) converter in a DC microgrid was studied due to its high power density and cost-effectiveness. The other advantages of DAB include galvanic isolation and bidirectional power conversion capability using simple control modulation. The three-port DAB converter consists of a three winding transformer and three bridges. The transformer has three phases, which means that the ports are coupled. Thus, the three-port DAB converter causes unwanted power flows when the load connected to each port changes. The basic operational principles of the three-port DAB converter are presented in this study. The decoupling control strategy of the independent port power transfer is presented with a mathematical power model to overcome the unexpected power flow problem. The validity of the proposed analysis and control strategy is verified with PSIM simulation and experiments using a 1-kW prototype power converter.

This paper provides field test results to confirm and compare the receiving characteristics of digital radio in various environments. HD Radio and DRM+ was used for the in-band method, while DAB/DAB+/T-DMB were used for the out-of-band method. To run field tests for digital radio, a transceiver test bed was constructed in a region in Korea selected as suitable for the testing, and indoor and outdoor reception tests were conducted by selecting 16 test points with different levels of multipath. Not only was the receivability tested at the test point, but ATT margin was also applied, in order to derive the minimum reception level. Through various analyses, the findings obtained through the field tests can aid in the setting of a standard for determining the method of digital radio transmission to ensure a smooth reception environment for consumers.

Although early studies suggested that bladder cancer (BCa) is more prevalent in men than in women, muscle-invasive rates are higher in women than in men, suggesting that sex hormones might play important roles in different stages of BCa progression. In this work, we found that estrogen receptor beta ($ER{\beta}$) could increase BCa cell proliferation and invasion via alteration of miR-92a-mediated DAB2IP (DOC-2/DAB2 interacting protein) signals and that blocking miR-92a expression with an inhibitor could partially reverse $ER{\beta}$-enhanced BCa cell growth and invasion. Further mechanism dissection found that $ER{\beta}$ could increase miR-92a expression at the transcriptional level via binding to the estrogen-response-element (ERE) on the 5' promoter region of its host gene C13orf25. The $ER{\beta}$ up-regulated miR-92a could decrease DAB2IP tumor suppressor expression via binding to the miR-92a binding site located on the DAB2IP 3' UTR. Preclinical studies using an in vivo mouse model also confirmed that targeting this newly identified $ER{\beta}$/miR-92a/DAB2IP signal pathway with small molecules could suppress BCa progression. Together, these results might aid in the development of new therapies via targeting of this $ER{\beta}$-mediated signal pathway to better suppress BCa progression.

A frequency synthesizer for DAB applications is designed using $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS process with 1.8V supply. NP-core type is chosen for VCO core to improve low power characteristic and symmetric characteristic of output waveform. VCO range is 1302.34 MHz - 1949.51 MHz using switchable capacitor bank and varactor bank. Varactor biases that improve varactor capacitance characteristics were minimized as two, $K_{vco}$(VCO gain) is maintained using technique of varactor bank switching. Intervals of $K_{vco}$ are maintained adding VCO frequency compensation logic. Each block of VCO and frequency synthesizer designed $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS process with 1.8V supply is verified by Cadence Spectre, measured VCO consumes 9mA current, and is 39.8% tuning range, total power consumption of the frequency synthesizer is 18mW.

In OFDM system, the out-of-band radiation of ensemble interferes with the adjacent ensemble and result in the reduction of receiving performance. So the reduction scheme of out-of-band radiation is very important. In this paper, a time-domain windowing method to reduce the out-of-band radiation is considered to DAB systems. We adopt the considered method to T-DMB(DAB mode-1) and AT-DMB Systems, and we get about 3-dB gains of out-of-band radiation. And also we show that the considered method doesn't reduce the BER performance.

It is usually difficult for dual-active-bridge (DAB) dc-dc converters to operate efficiently at light loads. This paper presents an in-depth analysis of a DAB with triple-phase-shift (TPS) control under the light load condition to overcome this problem. A kind of operating mode which is suitable for light load operation is analyzed in this paper. First, an analysis of the zero-voltage-switching (ZVS) constraints for the DAB converter has been carried out and a reasonable dead-band setting method has been proposed. Secondly, the basic operating characteristics of the converter are analyzed. Third, under the condition of satisfying the ZVS constraints, both the reactive power and the root mean square (RMS) value of the current are simultaneously minimized and a particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is employed to analyze and solve this optimization problem. Lastly, both simulations and experiments are carried out to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method. The experimental results show that the converter can effectively achieve ZVS and improved efficiency.

A nucleosomal protein, high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) is known to be a late mediator of sepsis. Dabrafenib is a B-Raf inhibitor and initially used for the treatment of metastatic melanoma therapy. Inhibition of HMGB1 and renewal of vascular integrity is appearing as an engaging therapeutic strategy in the administration of severe sepsis or septic shock. Here, we examined the effects of dabrafenib (DAB) on the modulation of HMGB1-mediated septic responses. DAB inhibited the release of HMGB1 and downregulated HMGB1-dependent inflammatory responses by enhancing the expressions of cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) in human endothelial cells. In addition, treatment with DAB inhibited the HMGB1 secretion by CLP and sepsis-related mortality and pulmonary injury. This study demonstrated that DAB could be alternative therapeutic options for sepsis or septic shock via the inhibition of the HMGB1 signaling pathway.
