Orthogonal time frequency space (OTFS) modulation is considered as one of the solutions to cope with high mobility channel environments. It converts the time-varying channel to the near-constant channel response in the delay-Doppler domain. This modulation scheme also benefits from the diversity in two-dimensional modulation. According to recent researches, this method outperforms the conventional OFDM modulation, especially in high-speed channel conditions. In this paper, to investigate the performance of OTFS in a practical system, channel estimation in the delay-Doppler domain is compared with the conventional method in the time-frequency domain at different mobile speeds. Simulation results confirm that the delay-Doppler domain channel estimation brings a better performance compared to the conventional one under the same overhead rate.

A new data-driven method for the design of a blind modulation frequency filter that suppresses the slow-varying noise components is proposed. The proposed method is based on the temporal local decorrelation of the feature vector sequence, and is done on an utterance-by-utterance basis. Although the conventional modulation frequency filtering approaches the same form regardless of the task and environment conditions, the proposed method can provide an adaptive modulation frequency filter that outperforms conventional methods for each utterance. In addition, the method ultimately performs channel normalization in a feature domain with applications to log-spectral parameters. The performance was evaluated by speaker-independent isolated-word recognition experiments under additive noise environments. The proposed method achieved outstanding improvement for speech recognition in environments with significant noise and was also effective in a range of feature representations.

A matrix converter is used for converting AC/AC power directly. In order to generate sinusoidal input/output waveform in matrix converter, it uses nine bidirectional switches and PWM modulation. This paper presents an analytical averaged loss model of matrix converter with DDPWM(direct duty ratio PWM) and proposes a new switching method for reducing switching losses. A Mathematical loss models with average magnitude of voltage/current are classed as conduction and switching loss. The proposed switching pattern is improved with existing DDPWM. To prove improved efficiency with proposed DDPWM, this paper compares losses between suggested switching pattern and conventional switching pattern using mathematical and simulation method. Each loss types are influenced by environmental factors such as temperature, switching frequency, output current and modulation method.

In this paper, we determined the modulation index for minimization of speed ripple and position error using maximum speed ripple (SRF) and maximum position error(PEF) in current source TPWM inverter. Through computer simulation, we compared with total current harmonic distortion, SRF and PEF for square wave modulation method and TPWM method. As a result, it turns out that square wave modulation method is superior to TPWM method of 3 pulses per half cycle in speed ripple and position error contents. And TPWM is better than square wave method when pulse number is more than 5. Also, in these pulse numbers, moduladtion index of minimum speed ripple and munimum position error is 0.91.

This paper proposes the algorithm for the output AC voltage control of Z-source inverter by the detection of the input DC voltage and Z-network capacitor voltage. The actual modulation index of the proposed method is detected by the capacitor voltage in Z-network and input DC voltage of three-phase Z-source inverter. Control modulation index for the output voltage control is calculated by the detected actual modulation index and reference modulation index. And, calculated control modulation index is applied to the modified space vector modulation (SVM) for control the output voltage of Z-source inverter. To verify the validity of the proposed method, PSIM simulation was achieved and a DSP controlled 1[kW] three-phase Z-source inverter was producted. The simulation and experiment were performed under the condition that the load was changed in case of the constant input DC voltage and the input DC voltage was changed in case of the load was constant. As a result, we could know that the output phase voltage of Z-source inverter followed to the reference voltage 70[VRMS] despite the load or the input DC voltage were suddenly changed.

Multilevel converters have attracted a lot of attention in recent years. The efficiency parameters of a multilevel converter such as the switching losses and total harmonic distortion (THD) mainly depend on the modulation strategy used to control the converter. Among all of the modulation techniques, the selective harmonic elimination (SHE) method is particularly suitable for high-power applications due to its low switching frequency and high quality output voltage. This paper proposes a new expression for the SHE problem in five-level converters. Based on this new expression, a simple analytical method is introduced to determine the feasible modulation index intervals and to calculate the exact value of the switching angles. For each selected harmonic, this method presents three-level or five-level waveforms according to the value of the modulation index. Furthermore, a flowchart is proposed for the real-time implementation of this analytical method, which can be performed by a simple processor and without the need of any lookup table. The performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated with several simulation and experimental results for a single phase five-level diode-clamped inverter.

철도차량용 구동 시스템의 주 변압기를 지능형 변압기로 대체하는 것은 철도차량의 효율을 높이기 위한 효과적인 방법이다. 지능형 변압기는 고전압 입력단을 저전압 직류단으로 변환하는 정류단 모듈과, 변환된 복수의 저전압 직류단 전압을 직/병렬로 연결하여 저전압 직류 출력 전압을 제어하는 Dual Active Bridge (DAB) 컨버터 모듈로 구성된다. DAB 컨버터는 고주파 변압기를 사이에 두고 양 측 Full-Bridge 컨버터의 전압 합성 방법에 따라 전력이 양방향으로 전달될 수 있다. 이 때, 양 측 Full-Bridge 컨버터의 전압 합성 방법에 따라 고주파 변압기로 흐르는 전류의 형태가 달라지게 되며, 이는 효율에 직접적인 영향을 미치게 된다. 본 논문은 중/저 전력 조건에서 DAB 컨버터의 효율을 개선하기 위한 새로운 modulation 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 modulation 방법은 DAB 컨버터 내에 발생할 수 있는 무효 전력을 0으로 제어하도록 하며, 출력단 컨버터를 다이오드 정류기와 유사한 동작을 하도록 함으로써, 스위칭 손실을 최소화하도록 하였다. 제안된 modulation 방법을 통한 손실 저감은 900Vdc의 직류단 전압을 갖는 DAB 컨버터에 대한 시뮬레이션 결과를 통해 검증하였다.

본 논문에서는 PSK(Phase-Shift-Keying) 변조와 PPM(Pulse Position Modulation) 방식의 혼합형이라 볼 수 있는 PSSK(Phase Silence Shift Keying) 변조 방식을 수중 통신에 적용한 결과를 제시한다. 수중 통신 시스템의 성능은 수중 채널 특성에 영향을 많이 받는다. 특히, 잔향 및 다중 경로(Multi-path)로 인한 지연 확산은 데이터 전송 시 인접 심벌간의 간섭 (ISI : Inter Symbol Interference)을 발생시켜 통신의 성능을 저하시킨다. 또한 수중 센서 네트워크인 경우 그 운용 환경의 특수성으로 언해 전력 효율적인 측면도 시스템 구성의 중요한 고려 요소가 된다. PSSK 변조 방식은 2개의 직교 심별을 전송하는 방식으로 한 주기 내에 silence 구조댄 사용함으로써 전력 사용을 절반으로 줄일 수 있다. 이로 인해 변조 심벌간의 거리를 늘려 BER(Bit Error Rate) 성능을 향상 시킬 뿐만 아니라 송신 전력을 낮추어 전력 효율적인 측면의 성능 향상도 기대 할 수 있다. 근거리 해상 실험 결과 QPSK 변조 방식인 경우 BER이 $3.19{\times}10^{-1}$ 이였으며, PSSK 인 경우 BER이 $2.89{\times}10^{-1}$ 이었다.
