Common mode (CM) chokes are a crucial part in EMI filters for mitigating the electromagnetic interference (EMI) of switched-mode power supplies (SMPS) and for meeting electromagnetic compatibility standards. However, the parasitic capacitances of a CM choke deteriorate its high frequency filtering performance, which results in increases in the design cycle and cost of EMI filters. Therefore, this paper introduces a negative capacitance generated by a negative impedance converter (NIC) to cancel the influence of equivalent parallel capacitance (EPC). In this paper, based on a CM choke equivalent circuit, the EPCs of CM choke windings are accurately calculated by measuring their impedance. The negative capacitance is designed quantitatively and the EPC cancellation mechanisms are analyzed. The impedance of the CM choke in parallel with negative capacitances is tested and compared with the original CM choke using an impedance analyzer. Moreover, a CL type CM filter is added to a fabricated NIC prototype, and the insertion loss of the prototype is measured to verify the cancellation effect. The prototype is applied to a power converter to test the CM conducted noise. Both small signal and EMI measurement results show that the proposed technique can effectively cancel the EPCs and improve the CM filter's high frequency filtering performance.

In this paper, a new method is suggested to improve the frequency responses of dual-mode waveguide-filters that employ cross-shaped slots. In accordance with this method, regarding one cross-shaped slot between two cavities, the horizontal(vertical) mode in one cavity can be designed to influence far less the vertical(horizontal) mode in cavity. Therefore, it improves the overall performances. A 4th-order dual-mode filter is taken as an example and it validates the method.

수심이 변하는 천해 환경에서 이동하는 선박방사소음의 광대역 간섭 유형을 고찰하였다. 수심 변화율이 일정한 음도파관에 대해 단열 모드 이론에 근거하여 거리-주파수 영역에서의 보강 (또는 상쇄) 간섭 발생 유형을 나타내는 음도파관 불변인자 (waveguide invariant index, β)를 유도하였다. 이를 이용하여 수심 변화에 의한 광대역 간섭 형태 변형을 해석하였다. 해석적 방법으로 고찰한 간섭 유형은 해상 실험과 수치 모델을 이용한 모의실험에서도 나타남을 확인하였다.

This study introduces an efficient readout circuit designed for two-electrode electrocardiogram (ECG) recording, characterized by its low-noise and low-power consumption attributes. Unlike its three-electrode counterpart, the two-electrode ECG is susceptible to common-mode interference (CMI), causing signal distortion. To counter this, the proposed circuit integrates a common-mode charge pump (CMCP) with a window comparator, allowing for a CMI tolerance of up to 20 V_PP. The CMCP design prevents the activation of electrostatic discharge (ESD) diodes and becomes operational only when CMI surpasses the predetermined range set by the window comparator. This ensures power efficiency and minimizes intermodulation distortion (IMD) arising from switching noise. To maintain ECG signal accuracy, the circuit employs a chopper-stabilized instrumentation amplifier (IA) for low-noise attributes, and to achieve high input impedance, it incorporates a floating high-pass filter (HPF) and a current-feedback instrumentation amplifier (CFIA). This comprehensive design integrates various components, including a QRS peak detector and serial peripheral interface (SPI), into a single 0.18-㎛ CMOS chip occupying 0.54 mm². Experimental evaluations showed a 0.59 µV_RMS noise level within a 1-100 Hz bandwidth and a power draw of 23.83 µW at 1.8 V.

The Global Positioning System (GPS) has become popular and widely used in many fields from military to civilian applications. However, GPS signals are suffered from interference due to its weak signal over wireless channel. There are many types of interference, such as jamming, blocking multipath, and spoofing, which can mislead the operation of GPS receiver. In this paper, vector-based tracking loop model with integrity check is proposed to detect and mitigate the harmful effect of interference on GPS receiver operation. The suggested methods are implemented in the tracking loop of GPS receiver. As a first method, integrity check with carrier-to-noise ratio (C/No) monitoring technique is applied to detect the presence of interference and prevent contaminated channels out of tracking channels to calculate position. As a second method, a vector-based tracking loop using Extended Kalman Filter with adaptive noise covariance according to C/No monitoring results. The proposed methods have been implemented on simulated dataset. The results demonstrates that the suggested methods significantly mitigate interference of Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) and improve position calculation by 44%.

We report a probe using a single double clad fiber (DCF) for fluorescence spectroscopy. Bidirectional separate transmission for excitation and fluorescence light in a single fiber was implemented. A DCF coupler made by side-polished method could extract none but the collected fluorescence signals propagating in inner cladding mode, thereby diminishing the interference of silica background generated by the excitation in core mode. The experimental results show that the fluorescence spectra of biological tissues obtained using the DCF probes have much less silica background than using a standard multiple-mode fiber.

우리는 Hong-Ou-Mandel 간섭 실험에서 95% 간섭가시도를 획득했다. 지난 연구에서 56% 가시도를 획득한 것에 비하면 획기적으로 가시도가 개선되었다. 우리는 제1형 자발적 매개 하향 변환 목적으로 제작된 ${\beta}$-Barium Borate 단결정에 405 nm 단일모드 연속 발진 레이저를 주사하여 만들어진 쌍둥이 광자쌍을 표준적인 Hong-Ou-Mandel 간섭광학계를 거치게 한 후 다이오드 기반 단일광자 계수기와 자체적으로 제작한 동시계수기에 의해 간섭신호를 측정했다. 지난 연구와 이번 연구의 가장 큰 차이점은 광자를 집광하는데 단일모드 광섬유를 사용했다는 점이다. 단일모드 광섬유는 중심부 크기가 매우 작기 때문에 광결정에서 발생하는 여러 서로 다른 모드 광자 사이의 우연한 동시계수를 억제시키는 공간 필터역할을 함으로써 가시도가 개선된 것으로 보인다.

A new method for reducing the common-mode current generated by the voltage variations in a two-inverter air conditioner system by applying a synchronized pulse-width modulation (PWM) strategy is proposed. The PWM signals of the master-mode inverter are generated based on the reference voltage, while those of the slave-mode inverter are output in the opposite direction when the master-mode inverter changes its switching state. However, the slave-mode control results in a mismatch between the reference voltage and the actual output voltage that is modified by synchronized control operation. The proposed method is capable of reducing and controlling this voltage error by performing signal selection in the vector space of the slave-mode inverter, which mitigates the distortion of the phase current. The efficacy of this method in reducing conducted emissions has been validated both theoretically and experimentally.
