In this paper an integrated model of PV-AF (Photovoltaic-Active Filter) and PV-SPE (Photovoltaic Solid Polymer Electrolyte) system using PSCAD/EMTDC were explained in detail. The main concept of PV-AF system starts from the "harmonics". In order to deliver power to utility, PV system essentially needs a converter system. Here PV-AF system adds the function of active filter to the converter system installed in PV system, which was introduced already in several papers. PV-SPE system has been studied as a replacement of existing hydrogen production technology that emits large amount of carbon dioxide into atmosphere. Until now, these two systems, PV-AF and PV-SPE, have been considered separately. However, in this paper, characteristics and advantages of combined system are discussed in detail.

In ground vehicles, the increasing demand for safety and ride comfort which are trade-off relation, especially at high speeds, has led to the development od actively controlled suspensions. The LQG/LTR controller can be used to design a robust feedback control system that deals with disturbance rejection properties as well as insensitivity to modelling errors and sensor noise. And when the disturbance can not be measured but is limited within a certain frequency range, a bandpass feedback to eliminate the disturbance response can be used. In this paper, hybrid controller cosisted of bandpass feedback controller and LQG/LTR controller is applied to a quarter-car model moving on a randomly profiled road. The random road profile considered as colored noise is shaped from white noise by use of shaping filter. The performance of the hybrid control system is compared with that of an LQG/LTR controlled system.

This paper addresses the establishment of a kVA-range plug-in hybrid electrical vehicle (PHEV) integration test platform and associated issues. Advancements in battery and power electronic technology, hybrid vehicles are becoming increasingly dependent on the electrical energy provided by the batteries. Minimal or no support by the internal combustion engine may result in the vehicle being occasionally unable to recharge the batteries during highly dynamic driving that occurs in urban areas. The inability to sustain its own energy source creates a situation where the vehicle must connect to the electrical grid in order to recharge its batteries. The effects of a large penetration of electric vehicles connected into the grid are still relatively unknown. This paper presents a novel methodology that will be utilized to study the effects of PHEV charging at the sub-transmission level. The proposed test platform utilizes the power hardware-in-the-loop (PHIL) concept in conjunction with high-fidelity PHEV energy system simulation models. The battery, in particular, is simulated utilizing a real-time digital simulator ($RTDS^{TM}$) which generates appropriate control commands to a power electronics-based voltage amplifier that interfaces via a LC-LC-type filter to a power grid. In addition, the PHEV impact is evaluated via another power electronic converter controlled through $dSPACE^{TM}$, a rapid control systems prototyping software.

In this paper, dual-feed circularly polarized microstrip patch antenna for GPS L1, GPS L2, GLONASS L1 signal was fabricated by using stacked patch. It was fed by dual coaxial probe on the patch at 50ohm impedance, and was simulated to resonate at GPS L1, GPS L2, GLONASS L1. To realize characteristics of right hand circular polarization using dual-feed stacked patch antenna and hybrid coupler for $90^{\circ}$ phase difference.

In this paper, a voltage compensator with harmonic current compensating capability is studied and its compensating characteristics are analyzed. Like the hybrid active power filter, the proposed system is composed of parallel LC passive filter and series PWM converter connected to power line through series transformer. It is shown that the compensation of harmonic current generated due to nonlinear loads such as diode rectifier and instantaneous voltage compensation of the source are performed through the proposed compensating system. The operating principle of the proposed system is described through a single-phase equivalent circuit and the control strategy is suggested on the d-q rotating reference frame of the 3-phase system. Also, experiment is carried out to verify compensating characteristics of the proposed system.

This paper describes the computer-aided design, fabrication and performance of high Q and high gain active filters suitable for microminiaturization in the frequency range of 10-800MHz, based on the negative resistance operation of a transistor. 48 as high as 1000 and a transducer gain as high as 35dB can readily be obtained with a single-transistor amplifier and with an inductance as small as a few nH at higher frequencies and 150 nH at lower frequencies in tile above frequency range. The gain of the proposed active filter can be stoabilized within $\pm$ 1.5 dB over the temperature range -1$0^{\circ}C$ to +5$0^{\circ}C$ and the temperature dependence of the center frequency is tapicalla 50ppm/$^{\circ}C$. An experimental FM receiver utilizing these fitters and operating at a carrier frequency of 92 MH3 was built. The whole circuit was fabricated on eight alumina substrates of by the thick-film hybrid IC technique and the coils are constructed, for miniaturization, in a spiral form of 3 or 4 turns of enamel copper wire with an overall diameter of about 5mm. The test results are also reported in this paper.

We propose a novel post-processing algorithm and its very-large-scale integration architecture that simultaneously uses the passive and active stereo vision information to improve the reliability of the three-dimensional disparity in a hybrid stereo vision system. The proposed architecture consists of four steps - left-right consistency checking, semi-2D hole filling, a tiny adaptive variance checking, and a 2D weighted median filter. The experimental results show that the error rate of the proposed algorithm (5.77%) is less than that of a raw disparity (10.12%) for a real-world camera image having a $1,280{\times}720$ resolution and maximum disparity of 256. Moreover, for the famous Middlebury stereo image sets, the proposed algorithm's error rate (8.30%) is also less than that of the raw disparity (13.7%). The proposed architecture is implemented on a single commercial field-programmable gate array using only 13.01% of slice resources, which achieves a rate of 60 fps for $1,280{\times}720$ stereo images with a disparity range of 256.

This paper proposes a stand alone type single-phase fuel cells micro-source with a voltage sag compensator for compensating the ac output voltage variations (sag or swell) of micro-source. The proposed micro-source is consist of a PEM(polymer electrolyte membrane) fuel cells simulator, a full bridge de converter, a 60Hz PWM(pulse width modulation) VSI(voltage source inverter), and a voltage sag compensator. Voltage sag compensator is similar to the configuration of hybrid series active power filter, and it is directly connected to micro-source through the injection transformer. Compensation algorithm of a voltage sag compensator adopts a single phase p-q theory. Effectiveness of the proposed the system is verified by the PSIM(power electronics simulation tool) simulation in the steady state and transient state which the proposed system is able to simultaneously compensate the harmonic current and source voltage sag or swell.

This paper deals with a control method for a hybrid energy storage system (ESS) with a battery and super capacitor for grid-connected operation. To improve the grid regulation and to minimize the depth of discharge of the battery, control algorithms for the hybrid ESS are proposed. A p-q control with predictive current control is used for the inverters for the super-capacitor and the battery. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed control method, simulation studies using the PSIM and RTDS are carried out for the actual grid model.
