This paper proposes the boost input type active clamp DC-DC converter featuring the high efficiency and improved EMI characteristics. The main characteristic of the converter is to operate with the non-pulsating input and output currents. Besides, it has the zero-voltage switching (ZVS) and low voltage stress characteristics. For the proposed converter, the detailed operation principles and the simulation results are presented.

This article develops a control model for an open queueing network in terms of both the input and the output processes with stochastic intensities. The input and the output intensities are subject to some capacity limits and optimum control is characterized by a threshold type with a finite upper barrier. A discounted profit is used as a decision criteria, which is revenue minus operating and holding cost.

In this paper, a new type of output feedback control, called a receding horizon finite memory control (RHFMC), is proposed for stochastic discrete-time state space systems. Constraints such as linearity and finite memory structure with respect to an input and an output, and unbiasedness from the optimal state feedback control are required in advance. The proposed RHFMC is chosen to minimize an optimal criterion with these constraints. The RHFMC is obtained in an explicit closed form using the output and input information on the recent time interval. It is shown that the RHFMC consists of a receding horizon control and an FIR filter. The stability of the RHFMC is investigated for stochastic systems.

In this paper, we propose a two-input two-output fuzzy controller to improve the performance of transient response and to eliminate the steady state error. The outputs of this controller are the control input calculated by position-type fuzzy controller and the accumulated error scaling factor. Here, the accumulated error scaling factor is adjusted on-line by fuzzy rules according to the current trend of the controlled process. To show the usefulness of the proposed controller, it is applied to several systems that are difficult to get satisfactory response by conventional PD controllers or PI controllers.

This paper deals with a Direct-Input-Output Manufacturing System (DIOMS) which has a number of machine centers placed along a built-in automated storage/retrieval system (AS/RS). During its operations, the storage/retrieval(S/R) machine picks up a pallet from the pickup/deposit port of a machine center and then moves it either to an empty rack opening of the AS/RS for temporary storage or to place it on the port of another machine center for subsequent operation. The machine layout problem in DIOMS is formulated as an integer mathematical programming whose objective is to minimize the total expected distance of the loaded S/R machine during a production period. Recognizing the limit of the exact solution procedure(the Branch and Bound method), two improvement-type heuristics are proposed. One is based on the simulated annealing method and the other the pairwise interchange method. The validity of the heuristics is examined with example problems.

This paper describes a type of piezoelectric transformer with improved design principles. It consists of a thin rectangular piezoelectric ceramic plate having two input electrodes and one output electrode. The length of each input and output electrode is nearly one third of that of piezoelectric transformer itself. In the driving section, the ceramic plate is poled in the thickness direction reversely with each other, and has electrodes on both main faces. The electric input near its fundamental resonance frequency is applied to the driving section in parallel and the output voltage from the generating section is connected to the resistor load. Its equivalent circuit is derived from the Mason\`s model. The frequency characteristics near the resonance frequency under no load have been investigated. Moreover, using this piezoelectric transformer we measured the LCD backlight characteristics.

In this study, we developed a co-located and space-shared multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antenna module with a modular design and high integration level. The proposed antenna pair includes a half-wavelength loop antenna and a dipole-type antenna printed on the front and back sides of a compact modular board. Owing to their modal orthogonality, these two independent antenna elements are highly self-isolated and free of additional decoupling components, even though they are assembled at the same location and within the same space. Thus, the proposed antenna is attractive in 5G MIMO systems. Furthermore, the proposed co-located and space-shared MIMO antenna module was employed in a 5G smartphone to verify their radiation and diversity performances. A 12 × 12 MIMO antenna system was simulated and fabricated using the proposed module. Based on the results, the proposed module can be employed in large-scale MIMO antenna systems for current and future terminal devices owing to its high integration, compactness, simple implementation, and inherent isolation.

This paper introduces a new methodology to apply the interpolation technique wi th optimum pattern to voltage-reactive power control of power system. The conventional tool for the optimal operation of power system is Optimal Power Flow(OPF) by standard optimization techniques. The achievement of solution through OPF programs has a defect of computation time, so that it is impossible to apply the OPF programs to the real-time control area. The proposed method presents a solution in a short period of time and an output with a good accuracy. The optimum pattern is a set of input-output pairs, where an input is a load level and a type of outage and an output is the result of OPF program corresponding to the input. The output in the OPF represents control variables of voltage-reactive power control. The interpolation technique is used to obtain the solution for an arbitrary input. As a result, the new technique helps operators in the process of the real-time voltage-reactive power control in both normal and emergency operating states.

This paper discusses a model reference adaptive control for a multi-input multi-output continuos system in matrix fraction description. The controller is of Monopoli-Narendra type with a time-varying gain matrix in the parameter adaptation law. The transfer matrix of the given plant with an adjustable controller is made to approach to that of the reference model asymptotically. It is shown that, under some plausible assumptions such as on the knowlidge of an interactor matrix, the algorithm for a single-input single-output system can be appropriately extended to a multi-input multi-output system. The convergence of an adaptation law is estavlished with some stability theory and stability of the overall system is asserted by an analytical investigation.

This paper describes on the fabrication and characteristics of hot-film type micro-flowsensors integrated with Pt-RTD(resistance thermometer device) and micro-heater on the SOI(Si-on-insulator) membrane and trench structures, in which MGO thin-film was used as medium layer in order to improve adhesion of Pt thin-film to SiO$_2$ layer. Output voltages increased due to increase of heat-loss from sensor to external. The output voltage was 250 nV at N$_2$ flow rate of 2000 sccm/min, heating power of 0.3 W. The response time($\tau$:63%) was about 42 msec when input flow was step-input. The results indicated that micro-flowsensors with the SOI membrane and trench structures have properties of a high-resolution and ow consume power.
