In this paper, a integrated phase-locked loop(PLL) as a clock multiphase generator for a high speed serial link is designed. The designed PLL keeps the same bandwidth and damping factor by using programmable current mirror in the whole operation frequency range. Also, the close-loop transfer function and VCO's phase-noise transfer function of the designed PLL are obtained with circuit netlists. The self impedance on board-mounted chip is calculated according to sizes and positions of decoupling capacitors. Especially, the detailed self-impedance analysis is carried out between frequency ranges represented the maximum gain in the close-loop transfer function and the maximum gain in the VCO's phase noise transfer function. We shows PLL's jitter characteristics by decoupling capacitor's sizes and positions from this result. The designed PLL has the wide operating range of 0.4GHz to 2GHz in operating voltage of 1.8V and it is designed 0.18-um CMOS process. The reference clock is 100MHz and PLL power consumption is 17.28mW in 1.2GHz.

Traditional boost converters have difficulty realizing high efficiency and high voltage gain conversion due to 1) extremely large duty cycles, 2) high voltage and current stresses on devices, and 3) low conversion efficiency. Therefore, a function decoupling high voltage gain DC/DC converter composed of a DC transformer (DCX) and an auxiliary converter is proposed. The role of DCX is to realize fixed gain conversion with high efficiency, whereas the role of the auxiliary converter is to regulate the output voltage. In this study, different forms of combined high voltage gain converters are compared and analyzed, and a structure is selected for the function decoupling high voltage gain converter. Then, topologies and control strategies for the DCX and auxiliary converter are discussed. On the basis of the discussion, an optimal design method for circuit parameters is proposed, and design procedures for the DCX are described in detail. Finally, a 400 W experimental prototype based on the proposed optimal design method is built to verify the accuracy of the theoretical analysis. The measured maximum conversion efficiency at rated power is 95.56%.

The decoupling design for the one-degree-of-freedom controller system is treated within the $H_{\infty}$ framework. In the present study, we demonstrate that the $H_{\infty}$ performance problem in the decoupling design is reduced into interpolation problems on scalar functions. To guarantee the properness of decoupling controllers and the overall transfer matrix, the relative degree conditions on the interpolating scalar functions are derived. To find the interpolating functions with relative degree constraints, Nevanlinna-Pick algorithm with starting function constraint is utilized in the present study. An illustrative example is given to provide details regarding the solution.

This paper deals with an empirical model for decoupling control to control the refrigeration system effectively. The conventional control schemes of the system are mainly focused on representative two control methods, superheat control and capacity control. The capacity control is basically conducted to respond partial loading conditions on the purpose of energy saving. The superheat control is mainly carried out to maintain maximum coefficient of performance (COP). In the variable speed refrigeration system, the capacity and the superheat are controlled by inverters and electronic expansion valves respectively for saving energy and improving cost performance. The capacity and superheat can not be controlled independently because of interfering loop when the compressor speed and opening angle electronic expansion valve is varied. Therefore, we suggest decoupling model to eliminate the interfering loop at first. Next, each transfer function in decoupling control model is obtained from number of experiments.

This study proposes analytical methods to establish the eigenfunction of continuous system due to substructuring and decoupling of discrete subsystems. The dynamic characteristics of updated continuous system are evaluated by the constraint effect of consistent deformation at the interfaces between two systems. Beginning with the dynamic equation for constrained discrete system, this work estimates the modal eigenmode function for the continuous system due to the addition or deletion of discrete systems. Numerical applications illustrate the validity and applicability of the proposed method.

Decoupling capacitors are commonly used to reduce the effect of SSN propagated through parallel power and ground planes in high-speed multilayer printed circuit boards (PCBs). In this paper, we introduced a simple high frequency measurement and proposed a wideband (50 MHz ∼3 GHz) equivalent circuit model for decoupling capacitor considering high frequency parasitic effects. The proposed model can be easily combined with the SPICE model of power supply planes far SSN analysis. The circuit simulations with the proposed model show good agreement with the measurement results. Also, we expect to accurately analyze the noise reduction effect as a function of value and location using the proposed model of decoupling capacitor.

A complete current loop decoupling control strategy based on a sliding mode observer (SMO) is proposed to eliminate the influence of current dynamic coupling and back electromotive force (EMF) in the vector control of permanent magnet synchronous motors. With this strategy, current dynamic decoupling and back EMF compensation can be simultaneously achieved. Unlike conventional methods, the proposed strategy can avoid the disturbances caused by the parametric variations of motor systems and maintain the advantages of proportional integral (PI) controllers, which are robust and easy to operate. An improved SMO, which uses a special PI regulator other than a linear saturation function as the equivalent control law in the boundary layer of a sliding surface, is proposed to eliminate the estimated errors caused by the quasi-sliding mode and obtain a satisfactory decoupling performance. The stability and parameter robustness of the proposed strategy are also analyzed. Physical experimental results are presented to verify the validity of the method.

Purpose - This study analyzed the decoupling phenomenon between energy consumption and economic growth in Korea from 1990 to 2021. The main purpose of this study is to suggest policy implications for achieving a low-carbon society and decoupling that Korea must move forward in the face of the climate change crisis. Design/methodology/approach - This study investigated the relationship between energy consumption and economic growth by energy source and sector using the energy-EKC (EEKC) hypothesis which included the energy consumption on the traditional Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC), and the impulse response function (IRF) model based on Bayesian vector auto-regression (BVAR). Findings - During the analysis period, the trend of decoupling of energy consumption and economic growth in Korea is confirmed starting from 1996. However, the decoupling tendency appeared differently depending on the differences in energy consumption by sources and fields. The results of the IRF model using data on energy consumption by source showed that the impact of GDP and renewable energy consumption resulted in an increase in energy consumption of bio and waste, but a decrease in energy consumption by sources, and the impact of trade dependence was found to increase the consumption of petroleum products. Research implications or Originality - According to the main results, efficient distribution by existing energy source is required through expansion of development of not only renewable energy but also alternative energy. Additionally, in order to increase the effectiveness of existing energy policies to achieve carbon neutrality, more detailed strategies by source and sector of energy consumption are needed.

The decoupling control using state feedback was once intensively studied during 1960's by many researchers. However, this control scheme was sensitive to the disturbance and Parameter variations. SMC(sliding mode control) is known as a robust control methodology to overcome such a disturbance. In this paper. the decoupling control by means of SM(sliding mode) for a trajectory control of a two-degrees-of- freedom manipulator was discussed. The position and velocity of manipulator tip were adopted to compose a nonlinear error functions. The reference inputs of the controller can be decided by switching function combined with the desired position and velocity. Simulation result is provided to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.
