Three-phase grid-connected inverters are widely applied in the fields of new energy power generation, electric vehicles and so on. Islanding detection is necessary to ensure the stability and safety of such systems. In this paper, feature recognition technology is applied and a novel islanding detection method is proposed. It can identify the features of inverter systems. The theoretical values of these features are defined as codebooks. The difference between the actual value of a feature and the codebook is defined as the quantizing distortion. When islanding happens, the sum of the quantizing distortions exceeds the threshold value. Thus, islanding can be detected. The non-detection zone can be avoided by choosing reasonable features. To accelerate the speed of detection and to avoid miscalculation, an active islanding detection method based on feature recognition technology is given. Compared to the active frequency or phase drift methods, the proposed active method can reduce the distortion of grid-current when the inverter works normally. The principles of the islanding detection method based on the feature recognition technology and the improved active method are both analyzed in detail. An 18 kVA DSP-based three-phase inverter with the SVPWM control strategy has been established and tested. Simulation and experimental results verify the theoretical analysis.

스펙트럼 센싱은 인지무선 (cognitive radio) 시스템을 동작시키기 위한 주요한 기법이며 인지무선 시스템을 통해 최근 주목받고 있는 무선에너지하비스팅 시스템에 에너지 하비스팅 효율을 개선할 수 있다. 최근 스펙트럼 센싱을 위한 다양한 기술이 연구되었는데, 그 중에서 가장 널리 쓰이고 있는 에너지 검출 (energy detection) 기술이 있다. 그러나 2차 유저 (secondary user; SU) 가 주파수 페이딩 (frequency fading) 및 쉐도잉 (shadowing)에 의해 영향을 받을 수 있기 때문에, 에너지 검출은 실제 무선 통신에서 숨겨진 단말기 문제 (hidden terminal problem)를 갖는다. 협력 스펙트럼 센싱 (cooperative spectrum sensing)은 SU의 공간적 다양성을 이용하여 이 문제를 해결할 수 있습니다. 그러나 다중 보조를 처리하여 데이터를 증가시키는 문제가 있기 때문에 우리는 적응형 스펙트럼 센싱 알고리즘을 사용하는 시스템 모델을 제안하고 성능을 시뮬레이션 한다. 이 알고리즘은 기본 사용자 (primary user; PU)의 수신 신호의 신호 대 잡음비 (signal to Noise Ratio; SNR)에 따라 단일 에너지 검출과 협동 에너지 사이의 감지 방법을 선택하는 방법을 이용한다. 시뮬레이션 결과를 통해 적응형 스펙트럼 센싱이 인지무선 시스템에서 더 효율적이라는 것을 확인한다.

License Plate Detection (LPD) is a key component in automatic license plate recognition system. Despite the success of License Plate Recognition (LPR) methods in the past decades, the problem is quite a challenge due to the diversity of plate formats and multiform outdoor illumination conditions during image acquisition. This paper aims at automatical detection of car license plates via image processing techniques. In this paper, we proposed a real-time and robust method for license plate detection using Heuristic Energy Map(HEM). In the vehicle image, the region of license plate contains many components or edges. We obtain the edge energy values of an image by using the box filter and search for the license plate region with high energy values. Using this energy value information or Heuristic Energy Map(HEM), we can easily detect the license plate region from vehicle image with a very high possibilities. The proposed method consists two main steps: Region of Interest (ROI) Detection and License Plate Detection. This method has better performance in speed and accuracy than the most of existing methods used for license plate detection. The proposed method can detect a license plate within 130 milliseconds and its detection rate is 99.2% on a 3.10-GHz Intel Core i3-2100(with 4.00 GB of RAM) personal computer.

특징 검출 기법은 원하는 신호에 대한 부분적인 정보가 수신단에 알려진 상황에서 정확도 높은 검출이 가능한 기법으로 알려져 있다. 이러한 방식의 검출 기법은 잡음이 강한 환경을 위해 제안되었다. 사이클로스테이셔너리 검출은 인지 무선 시스템에서 스펙트럼 검출 기법의 하나의 예이다. 그러나 이 기법은 원하는 신호에 대한 많은 양의 정보와 처리 시간을 요구한다. 반면, 에너지 검출 기반의 스펙트럼 검출은 단순한 기법으로 널리 알려져 있다. 그러나 에너지 검출은 잡음의 영향을 많이 받으며 이로 인한 검출 오류가 많이 발생하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 에너지와 사이클로스테이셔너리 기반의 기법을 결합하여 검출의 정확도를 높이는 한편 계산량과 처리 시간을 감소시키는 기법을 제안한다. 2단계의 문턱값을 이용하여 사이클로스테이셔너리 기법의 복잡도와 처리시간을 단축하여 시스템의 전송 효율을 증가시킨다. 시뮬레이션 결과 에너지 기반 사이클로스테이셔너리 검출 기법은 신호 검출에 소요되는 시간을 상당히 감소시키는 반면 시스템의 성능을 향상시킴을 보여준다.

This paper applies the arc detection algorithm to prevent the false detection in photo voltaic series arc detection circuit, which is required not only to detect the series arc quickly, but also not falsely detect the arc for the non-arc noise. For this purpose, this study proposes a rapid and preventive false detection method of single peak noise and short noise signals. First, to prevent false detection by single peak noise, Discrete wavelet transform (DWT)-based characteristic parameters are applied to determine the shape and the amplitude of the noise. In addition, arc fault detection within a few milliseconds is performed with the DWT iterative algorithm to quickly prevent false detection for short noise signals, considering the continuity of serial arc noise. Thus, the method operates not only to detect series arc, but also to avoid false arc detection for peak and short noises. The proposed algorithm is applied to real-time serial arc detection circuit based on the TMS320F28335 DSP. The serial arc detection and peak noise filtering performances are verified in the built simulated arc test facility. Furthermore, the filtering performance of short noise generated through DC switch operation is confirmed.

The improved and advanced Annulus Gas System(AGS) has been developed for Wolsong 2 to satisfy the requirements of the regulatory body. The Atomic Energy Control Board(AECB) required a shorter detection time following a small leak from a pressure tube and/or calandria tube. This paper describes licensing requirements, functional requirements and detail design description for the AGS. The Wolsong unit No. 1 AGS was designed to operate as a stagnant system normally requiring only pressure regulation and having provisions for purging. no improved AGS involves the adoption of gas recirculation in AGS, duplication of dew point indicators with additional instrumentation and sampling provisions to prompt operator action. The improved system operates in the recirculation mode with continuous dew point measurement for leak detection. An AGS with improved detection instrumentation is provided.

The existing methods for detection of fire smoke in a video easily lead to misjudgment of cloud, fog and moving distractors, such as a moving person, a moving vehicle and other non-smoke moving objects. Therefore, an algorithm for detection of fire smoke in a video based on wavelet energy slope fitting is proposed in this paper. The change in wavelet energy of the moving target foreground is used as the basis, and a time window of 40 continuous frames is set to fit the wavelet energy slope of the suspected area in every 20 frames, thus establishing a wavelet-energy-based smoke judgment criterion. The experimental data show that the algorithm described in this paper not only can detect smoke more quickly and more accurately, but also can effectively avoid the distraction of cloud, fog and moving object and prevent false alarm.

The high-flux advanced neutron application reactor (HANARO) is a multi-purpose research reactor at the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI). HANARO has been used in scientific and industrial research and developments. Therefore, stable operation is necessary for national science and industrial prospects. This study proposed an anomaly detection system based on deep learning, that supports the stable operation of HANARO. The proposed system collects multiple sensor data, displays system information, analyzes status, and performs anomaly detection using deep autoencoder. The system comprises communication, visualization, and anomaly-detection modules, and the prototype system is implemented on site in 2021. Finally, an analysis of the historical data and synthetic anomalies was conducted to verify the overall system; simulation results based on the historical data show that 12 cases out of 19 abnormal events can be detected in advance or on time by the deep learning AD model.

Since the leakage of sodium in an SFR (sodium-cooled fast reactor) causes an explosion upon reaction with air and water, sodium leakages represent an important safety issue. In this study, a novel technique for improving the reliability of sodium leakage detection applying DDVR (dynamic data validation and reconciliation) is proposed and verified to resolve this technical issue. DDVR is an approach that aims to improve the accuracy of a target system in a dynamic state by minimizing random errors, such as from the uncertainty of instruments and the surrounding environment, and by eliminating gross errors, such as instrument failure, miscalibration, or aging, using the spatial redundancy of measurements in a physical model and the reliability information of the instruments. DDVR also makes it possible to estimate the state of unmeasured points. To validate this approach for supporting sodium leakage detection, this study applies experimental data from a sodium leakage detection experiment performed by the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute. The validation results show that the reliability of sodium leakage detection is improved by cooperation between DDVR and hardware measurements. Based on these findings, technology integrating software and hardware approaches is suggested to improve the reliability of sodium leakage detection by presenting the expected true state of the system.
