In this paper, the Passive Intermodulation Distortion(PIMD) of high power RF Filter is measured with filter inner coating materials and we suggest how to reduced the PIMD of RF filter coating methods. According to the standard measurement regulation by IEC, the Passive Intermodulation Distortion of Wibro relay high power filter are measured. We suggest the coating materials and coating methods of high power filter inner structure to reduce the PIMD generating by insert loss and worse flatness of filter delay in the design of Wibro high power filter efficiently.

As Power Line has been already installed over 60% of a residential area all over the world, Broadband Service has been possible using high-speed PLC(Power Line Communication) without new access line installed for Internet access. Because of such reason, PLC is researched as the most suitable service for Last Mile Solution. But, Power Line is designed for transmitting electric power, so peripheral Wireless Communication System is affected by a leak of electric wave. In this paper, we propose a High Performance Notch Filter algorithm in comparison with a existing notch filter for reduction of interference between existing Wireless Communication Service and Power Line Service. In addition, we implement the Notch Filter emulator appling a High Performance Notch Filter and using a embedded board.

High-power communication jammer has to include the switched filter bank to eliminate the harmonic signals generated by amplifier. Generally, the switched filter bank consists of in-out switches and several filters. This paper describes the design of high-power switched filter bank, particularly the high-power filter bank operating over 20$\sim$110MHz frequency range. The filters designed have insertion loss less than 0.3dB, VSWR less than 1.25:1, and harmonic suppression more than 35dB. Also, the switched filter bank can endure upto 2kW high-power signal with very low harmonic level within $30{\mu}s$ switching speed.

Currently, NAND Flash memory has been widely used in consumer storage devices due to its non-volatility, stability, economical feasibility, low power usage, durability, and high density. However, a high capacity of NAND flash memory causes the high power consumption and the low performance. In the convention memory research, a hierarchical filter mechanism can archive an effective performance improvement in terms of the power consumption. In order to attain the best filter structure for NAND flash memory, we selected a direct-mapped filter, a victim filter, a fully associative filter and a 4-way set associative filter for comparison in the performance analysis. According to the results of the simulation, the fully associative filter buffer with a 128byte fetching size can obtain the bet performance compared to another filter structures, and it can reduce the energy*delay product(EDP) by about 93% compared to the conventional NAND Flash memory.

For high power photovoltaic (PV) grid-connected converters, high order filters such as multi-tuned filters and Traps+RC filters with outstanding filtering performance have been widely researched. In this paper, the optimization of a multi-tuned filter with a low damping resistance and research on its corresponding control scheme have been combined to improve the performance of the proposed filter. Based on the characteristics of the switching harmonics produced by PWM, the proposed filter is optimized to further improve its filtering performance. When compared with the more common Traps+RC filter, the advantages of the proposed filter with low damping resistances in attenuating the major switching harmonics have been demonstrated. In addition, a simpler topology and reduced power loss can be achieved. On the other hand, to make the implementation of the proposed filter possible, on the base of the unique frequency response characteristic of the proposed filter, a digital single-loop control scheme has been proposed. This scheme is a simple and effective means to suppress the resonance peak caused by a lack of damping. Therefore, a smaller volume, better efficiency of the proposed filter, and easy implementation of the corresponding control scheme can be realized. Finally, the superiority of the proposed filter topology and control scheme is verified in experiments.

In grid-connected voltage-source inverters (VSIs), when compared with a simple inductive L filter, the LCL filter has a better performance in attenuating the high frequency harmonics caused by the pulse-width modulation of power switches. However, the resonance peaks generated by the filter inductors and capacitors can make a system unstable. In terms of simplicity and filter design cost, a passive damping method is generally preferred. However, its high power loss and degradation in high frequency harmonic attenuation are significant demerits. In this paper, a mathematical design solution for a passive LCL filter to derive filter parameters suppressing the high frequency current harmonics to 0.3% is proposed. The minimum filter inductance can be obtained to reduce the size of the filter. Furthermore, a minimum damping resistance design considering a current controller is analyzed for a stable closed-loop system. The proposed design method is verified by experimental results using a 5-kW three-phase prototype inverter.

Single phase converters suffer from ripple power pulsating at twice the line frequency. The ripple power is usually absorbed by a bulky capacitor bank and/or a dedicative LC resonant link, resulting in a low power density and a high cost. An alternative solution is using a dc link active power filter (APF) to direct the pulsating power into another energy-storage component. The main dc link filter capacitor can then be reduced substantially. Based on a mainstream dc APF topology, this paper proposed a new control strategy incorporating both dual-loop control and repetitive control. The circuit parameter design is also re-examined from a control point of view. The proposed APF scheme has better control performance, and is more suited for high power applications since it works in CCM and with a low switching frequency.

This paper proposes a design scheme for an LCL-filter used for the three-parallel operation of the power converters in high-capacity wind turbines. The designs of the power devices and grid connected filter are difficult due to the high level voltages and currents in huge-capacity wind turbines. To solve these problem, this paper presents three-parallel operation and LCL-filter design techniques optimized by parallel operation. Furthermore, the design of an inverter side inductance of the LCL-filter is discussed in detail considering the switching modulation method. Simulation and experimental results demonstrate the validity of the designed filter and wind turbines.

Facility power-line electromagnetic interference (EMI) filters are used to provide radio frequency(RF) isolation between dedicated power distribution services and noise sensitive local power distribution systems. This type of EMI filters generally needs a high current capacity and, in some special applications, a high insertion loss of a minimum 100dB from 14kHz through 10GHz per MIL-STD 220 is required. This paper deals with an analysis and design of a wideband facility power-line EMI filter with the above requirements. The characteristics of the inductor and capacitor at high frequencies are investigated. The characteristics and design method of the facility EMI filter with a high order LC network are also presented. The prototype filter is finally implemented and its performance is verified from the experimental results.
