This paper presented a design technique of planar magnetic components for forward converter. Planar magnetic components are a good solution for high frequency switching-mode power supplies(SMPS). Since these kind of magnetic components have some advantages(low leakage inductance, low profile, low weight, minimum EMI etc.) that improve the SMPS performance, their use is growing in the last years. In this paper, the performance of designed system is verified by simulation and experiment by comparing the system using conventional magnetic components and the system using planar magnetic components.

We present a polarization-dependent prism array film for controlling the viewing angle distribution of liquid crystal (LC) display panels without loss of light efficiency. On a directional backlight unit, our polarization-dependent prism array film, made into a stacked bilayer with a well-aligned liquid crystalline reactive mesogen (RM) layer on the UV-imprinted prism structure, can continuously control the light refraction function of the prism array by electrically switching incident polarization states of a polarization-controlling layer prepared by a twisted nematic LC mode. The viewing angle control properties of the polarization-dependent prism array film are analyzed under different prism angle and refractive index conditions of the RM layer. A simple analytic model is also presented to describe the intermediate viewing angle distributions with continuously varying applied voltages and incident polarization states.

This paper proposes a new design method for the SMC-type FLC and shows that a SMC-type LFC is an extension of the SMC with BL. The conventional SMC-type FLC uses error and change-of-error as inputs of the FLC and generates the absolute value of a switching magnitude. Then, the fuzzy rule table is constructed on a two-dimensional space of the phase plane and has commonly the skew symmetric property. In this paper, we introduce a new variable, signed distance, from the skew symmetric property of the rule table. And thd variable becomes only a fuzzy variable that is used to generate the control input of a SMC-type FLC. that is, we design a new SMC-type FLC that uses a signed distance and a control input as the variables representing the contents of the rule-antecedent and the rule-con-sequent, respectively. Then the number of total rules is reduced and the control performance is almost the same as that of the conventional SMC-type FLC. Additionally, we derive the control law of the ordinary SMC with BL from a new SMC-type FLC. Namely, we show that a FLC is an extension of the SMC with BL.

In this paper, we proposed and designed a novel SNA protocol which operates in the way of a server and a client in the power control system. The proposed SNA protocol includes the information about the mode switching, the saving position of context information, the user trigger, and so forth, which are needed in the power management devices. We consider the application of the SNA protocol to the home network, where message flows between the SNA server and the SNA client. To verify the operation of the SNA protocol, the state transition diagrams of the server in the home gateway and the client in the network device are shown. Hence, we can conclude the SNA can operate without malfuction.

In this paper, we propose a two-stage base station (BS) sleeping scheme to save energy consumption in cellular networks. The BS sleeping mode is divided into a light sleeping stage and a deep sleeping stage according to whether there is a user in the BS's coverage. In the light sleeping stage, a BS will retain its coverage and frequently switch between the on state and the doze state according to the service characteristics. While in the deep sleeping stage analysis, the BS will shut down its coverage, and neighbor BSs will patch the coverage hole. Several closed-form formulas are derived to demonstrate the power consumption in each sleeping stage and the stage switching conditions are discussed to minimize the average power consumption. The average traffic delay caused by BS sleeping and the average deep sleeping rate under a given traffic load have also been studied. In addition, it is shown that BS sleeping is not always possible because of the limited quality of service (QoS) requirements. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme can effectively reduce the average BS power consumption, at the cost of some extra traffic delay. In summary, our proposed framework provides an essential understanding of the design of future green networks that aim to take full advantage of different stages of BS sleeping to obtain the best energy efficiency.

The sliding rmde controller(SMC) is known as having the robust variable structures for the nonlinear control systems such as coupled tank system with the pararretric perturbations and with the rapid disturbances. But the adaptive tuning algorit1uns for their pararreters are not satisfactory. Therefore, in this paper, a Real Variable Elitist Genetic Algorithm based Sliding Mode Controller (RVEGA SMC) for the precise control of the coupled tank level was tried. The SMC's switching pararreters were optimized easily and rapidly by RVEGA The simulation results showed that the tank level could be satisfactorily controlled without any overshoot and any steady-state error by the proposed RVEGA SMC.GA SMC.

The output of the controller is said to exceed the input limits of the plant being controlled when a control system operates in a non-linear region. This process is called the windup phenomenon. The windup phenomenon is not preferable in the control system because it leads to performance degradation, such as overshoot and system instability. Many anti-windup strategies involve switching, where the integral component differently operates between the linear and the non-linear states. The range of state for the non-overshoot performance is better illustrated by the boundary integral error plane than the proportional-integral (PI) plane in windup inspection. This study proposes a PI controller with a separate closed-loop integral controller and reference value set with respect to the input command and external torque. The PI controller is compared with existing conventional proportional integral, conditional integration, tracking back calculation, and integral state prediction schemes by using ScicosLab simulations. The controller is also experimentally verified on a direct current motor under no-load and loading conditions. The proposed controller shows a promising potential with its ability to eliminate overshoot with short settling time using the decoupling mode in both conditions.

In this paper, a new structure of realizing switching control logic for Data Weighted Average Technique is suggested. It uses memory and adder for summing past binary input and this summed data is used to select one switch in control logic. This control logic acts in parallel regardless of resolution so increasing resolution don't affect on converting speed. In this reason, high speed and high resolution D/A converter based on Data Weighted Average Technique could be made. In this paper, 4 bits current mode thermometer code D/A converter is degined and simulated by using HSPICE. Simulated results show that new structure of D/A converter has more than 250MHz converting speed and less than 0.0003[LSB] INL error. It is very useful in low power circuit because of using 3.3 V supply voltage.

In this study, we investigated the electro-optical(EO) characteristic of fringe-field switching(FFS) mode cell by the two kinds of ultraviolet(UV) alignment method on the organic thin film(polyimide: PI). The suitable organic layersfor FFS cell and the aligning capabilities of nematic liquid crystal(NLC) using the in-situ photoalignment method were studied Disclination is observed after conventional photoalignment method for 1h, and in-situ photoalignment method for 1h. Monodomain alignment of the NLC can be observed via in-situ photoalignment method for 2h and 3h. It is considered that NLC alignment is due to photo-depolymerization of the polymer with oblique non-polarized UV irradiation on PI surface. An unstable V-T curve of UV-aligned FFS-LCD with conventional photoalignment method can be achieved. However, a stable V-T curve of UV-aligned FFS-LCD with in-situ photoalignment method(1h), and V-T curve of UV-aligned FFS-LCD with in-situphotoalignment method was much stable comparing with that of other UV-aligned FFS-LCD's. As a result, more stable EO performanceof UV-aligned FFS-LCD with in-situphotoalignment method for 3h is obtained than that of the other UV-aligned FFS-LCD's.
