This paper proposes a new method for constant control of the output AC voltage of a voltage-fed three phase Z-source inverter (ZSI), in case of Z-network DC voltage variation or heavy change of load. The modulation index for the reference output AC voltage of ZSI can be calculated by the basic definition of ZSI, the input DC voltage and capacitor voltage of Z-network. And, the output AC voltage of ZSI is controlled by the modified space vector modulation (SVM) with the calculated modulation index. By the proposed method, the modulation index of output AC voltage is closely following in the reference modulation index. The validity of the proposed method is verified using PSIM simulation. In case which the input DC voltage of ZSI is heavily changed from 100[V] to 70[V] (or to 150[V]) and in case which load is changed from $30[\Omega]$ to $10[\Omega]$, we confirmed that the output AC voltage of ZSI is constantly controlled by the proposed method because the modulation index of ZSI is also simultaneously changed. Finally, FFT and %THD of the output voltage and current of ZSI by the proposed method are analyzed.

본 논문에서는 캐리어(Carrier)를 이용한 매트릭스 컨버터(Matrix Converter)의 전압 변조 방법을 제안한다. 출력상전압에 적절한 옵셋(Offset) 전압을 더하고, 캐리어 파형의 기울기를 적절히 제어함으로써 입력 전류를 역율 1의 정현파로 제어하면서 동시에 출력 전압의 합성이 가능하다. 이 방법은 기존의 매트릭스 컨버터 전압 변조 방법인 SVPWM과 동일한 스위칭 패턴을 나타내지만, 그 구현은 훨씬 간단한다. 또한 기존의 전압형 인버터(Voltage Source Inverter, VSI)에서 발전된 2상/3상 변조, 과변조(Over Modulation) 등의 개념을 유사하게 적용할 수 있어 그 활용도가 매우 논다. Matlab/Simulink를 이용한 시뮬레이션 결과와 실험을 통해 제안된 방법의 타당성을 검증하였다.

The signal processing algorithm for a PSD(Position Sensitive Detector) using amplitude modulation/demodulation is addressed in this paper. Dark currents and external noises such as daylight and fluorescent lights are eliminated by using amplitude modulation/demodulation and a low pass filter. The proposed amplitude modulation/demodulation method for a PSD sensor is compared with pulse amplitude modulation method. The proposed amplitude modulation is proved to be more accurate and robust than PAM method by analysis and experiments. Multiple measurements using one PSD sensor by amplitude modulation/demodulation is also addressed. The Power variation of light source is compensated by normalization process using a divider.

This paper presents an electronic ballast using a novel multiplex modulation method for the metal halide lamp. The proposed modulation method, which has a modulating signal of swept multiplex frequency, can eliminate the acoustic resonance more effectively than the conventional modulation method, which has a modulating signal of constant frequency. For the purpose of future application specific integrated circuits (ASIC), the controller of the proposed ballast has been designed only with erasable programmable logic devices (EPLDs), but without a microprocessor. In this paper, detailed proposed modulation schemes are described and experimental results on the proto-type 150W metal halide lamp ballast with the proposed modulation method are discussed.

In this study, a carrier-based pulse-width modulation (PWM) method for two-level voltage source inverters in the over-modulation region is proposed. Based on the superposition principle, the reference voltage vectors outside the linear modulation boundary are adjusted to relocate to the vector hexagon, while their fundamental magnitudes are retained. In accordance with the adjusted reference vector, the corresponding modulated waves are respectively deduced in over-modulation mode I and II to generate the gate signals of the power switches, guaranteeing the linearity of the fundamental output phase voltage in the over-modulation region. Moreover, due to the linear relationship between the voltage vector and the duty ratios, the complicated sector identification and holding angle calculation found in previous methods are avoided in the modulated wave synthesis, which provides great simplicity for the proposed carrier-based over-modulation strategy. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness and validity of the proposed method.

Non-line-of-sight (NLOS) propagation can severely weaken the accuracy of ranging and localization in wireless location systems. NLOS bias mitigation techniques have recently been proposed to relieve the NLOS effects, but positively rely on the capability to accurately distinguish between LOS and NLOS propagation scenarios. This paper proposes an energy-capture-based NLOS identification method for LDR-UWB systems, based on the analysis of the characteristics of the channel impulse response (CIR). With this proposed energy capture method, the probability of successfully identifying NLOS is much improved than the existing methods, such as the kurtosis method, the strongest path compare method, etc. This NLOS identification method can be employed in adaptive modulation scheme to decrease bit error ratio (BER) level for certain signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). The BER performance with the adaptive modulation can be significantly enhanced by selecting proper modulation method with the knowledge of channel information from the proposed NLOS identification method.

In this paper, the effect of pulse width modulation methods on thermal loadings and power losses of single-phase five-level NPC inverters for photovoltaic systems are analyzed. The pulse width modulation methods affect the power losses of the NPC inverters and thus lead to different thermal loadings of NPC inverters. To identify the reliability-critical power device with respect to thermal stress, the thermal loadings of I- and T-type NPC inverters are analyzed by applying the unipolar pulse modulation method. Then, the effect of the discontinuous pulse width modulation method on power losses and thermal loadings of power devices of I- and T-type NPC inverters are analyzed. Finally, the operation of NPC inverters applying the discontinuous pulse modulation method is confirmed by experiments. The results show that the discontinuous pulse modulation method is able to improve the reliability of NPC inverters by reducing thermal loadings of reliability-critical power devices and it is more effective for T-type NPC inverters than I-type NPC inverters.

임팻다이오드의 임지던스크기가 연류에 교류를 중첩시켜 가할경우 변화하는 특성을 고찰하였다. 스펙트럼분석기상에서 반송파영점측정방법으로 견파수변조된 파의 특성을 측달하였다. 각파수변조는 아주 작은 교류신호전압으로 가능하며 변조주파수를 일정히하고 신호전압을 증가시키면 소요대역폭이 아주 커지고 신호전압을 일정히하고 변조각파수를 작게할때 대역건은 약간 좁아지는 결과를 얻었다. This paper dells with the impedance variations of the IMPATT diode depending upon the small a.c. coomponent superimposed on the d.c. bias. The frequency deviation of the modulated wave is measured using a carrier null method on microwave spectrum analyser. Frequency modulation is achieved by the weack a.c. signal superimposed on the d.c. bias. The bandwidth rapidly increase with increasing modulation signal magnitude for constant modulation frquency and slightly decrease with decreasing modulation frequency for constant modulation signal magnitude.

In this paper, we suggest a new space vector PWM modulation method with very short processing time which does not need identification of nearest three vectors(NTV) and duty ratio for each vector. The suggested PWM method makes mean value of phase voltage to be same as reference during every modulation period by use of a triangle in small hexagon on multi-level vector space. This paper described the suggested modulation method can be successfully applied to the space vector modulation use of multi-level inverter by computer simulations and experiments.
