  • In general, there are various types of boost converters such as Boost converters, Buck-Boost converters, Flyback converters, Push-Pull converters, etc. Among them, Boost converters are the most widely used and step up converters in a very simple form. However, Boost converter has DCM mode operation, big ripple problem and RHPZ problem. In order to solve these problems, a converter to which the new topology was applied was presented, but among them, the KY converter improved the Boost converter's DCM mode operation, the big ripple problem and the RHPZ problem. However, the conventional KY converter has a drawback that the voltage gain is relatively lower than that of the Boost converter. Therefore, in this paper, we proposed a new KY converter that solves the problem of low voltage gain while having the advantages of the conventional KY converter.

  • The purpose of this research is to extend Ad-hoc network system lifetime with the proposed routing protocol which has considered hop lifetimes of the nodes while guaranteeing QoS in the establishment process of Ad-hoc network communication paths. Based on another power aware routing system that proposed in the advanced research [1], we are proposing an alternative power aware routing system in which nodes' hop lifetimes are compared in order to extend the lifetime of an Ad-hoc network system and delay factors have been considered for the assurance of QoS. The research of the routing protocol in this paper, which aims to maximize the system survival time considering power consumption status during the path searching in MANET and pursues the mechanism that controls hop delays for the same reason, can be applied to the study of WSN. The study concerning such phenomena is essential so that the proposed protocol has been simulated and verified with NS-2 in Linux system focusing on the lifetimes of the hops of the nodes. Commercialization of smart devices and arrival of the ubiquitous age has brought about the world where all the people and things are connected with networks. Since the proposed power aware method and the hop delay control mechanism used to find the adequate communication paths in MANET which mainly uses batteries or in WSN, they can largely contribute to the lifetime extension of the network system by reducing power consumptions when utilized for the communications attempts among soldiers during military operation, disaster areas, temporary events or exhibitions, mobile phone shadow areas, home networks, in-between vehicle communications and sense networks, etc. This paper presents the definitions and some advantages regarding the proposed outing protocol that sustain and extend the lifetime of the networks.

  • In this paper, we selected power and power distribution facilities corresponding to urban infrastructure from the types of damage that could be caused by earthquakes and studied how they were calculated to damage. To calculate the damage, a graph of the magnitude of the damage was produced by applying the vulnerability curve calculation formula, which can be calculated for each type and type of facility. The scale of the earthquake and the probability of the occurrence of damage by the maximum earthquake acceleration were shown in the form of a vulnerability rate when the earthquake occurred in the urban infrastructure facility for utilizing the calculation result. It also applied a method of quantifying the fragility, which is a method of converting the calculated fragility into an integrated form, to represent a constant value for the magnitude of the damage. Continuing research, such as the method applied in this paper, could help identify in advance the types of structures affected by an earthquake and respond to reducing damage.

  • Electromagnetic induction surveys are one of the useful methods to detect the location and buried depth of underground utilities by measuring horizontal and vertical magnetic fields. It can effectively detects single buried utility with the accuracy of within 20 cm. However when another utility is buried near to target one, the accuracy of utility location considerably decreases due to the distortion of magnetic fields caused from adjacent utility. This study shows the ways to verify the location and buried depth of target utility when magnetic fields does not show symmetric distribution due to adjacent another utility. Using Bluetooth wireless communication tools, we developed the way to records measured magnetic fields to handheld PDA. We investigated the criteria for minimum distance of two adjacent utilities to separate the individual responses through field model test.
