This paper presents a novel topology named a modified capacitor-assisted Z-source inverter (MCA-ZSI) based on the traditional ZSI. The impedance network of the proposed MCA-ZSI consists of two symmetrical cells coupled with two capacitors with an X-shape structure, and each cell has two inductors, two capacitors, and one diode. Compared with other topologies based on switched ZSI with the same number of components used at impedance network, the proposed topology provides higher boost ability, lower voltage stress across inverter switching devices, and lower capacitor voltage stress. The improved performances of the proposed topology are demonstrated in the simulation and experimental results.

In this paper, a GAN-based data augmentation method is proposed for topology optimization. In machine learning techniques, a total amount of dataset determines the accuracy and robustness of the trained neural network architectures, especially, supervised learning networks. Because the insufficient data tends to lead to overfitting or underfitting of the architectures, a data augmentation method is need to increase the amount of data for reducing overfitting when training a machine learning model. In this study, the Ganerative Adversarial Network (GAN) is used to augment the topology optimization dataset. The produced dataset has been compared with the original dataset.

Maintaining connectivity is essential in multi-hop wireless networks since the network topology cannot be pre-determined due to mobility and environmental effects. To maintain the connectivity, a critical point in the network topology should be identified where the critical point is the link or node that partitions the network when it fails. In this paper, we propose a new critical point identification algorithm and also present numerical results that compare the critical points of the network and H-hop sub-network illustrating how effectively sub-network information can detect the network-wide critical points. Then, we propose two localized topological control resilient schemes that can be applied to both global and local H-hop sub-network critical points to improve the network connectivity and the network resilience. Numerical studies to evaluate the proposed schemes under node and link failure network conditions show that our proposed resilient schemes increase the probability of the network being connected in variety of link and node failure conditions.

철도 차량은 일렬로 연결되는 구조적 특수성이 있으므로 네트워크 토폴로지를 구성하는 경우에서도 이를 고려하여야 한다. 또한 차량 내의 장치 간 연결에서의 토폴로지와 차량 간 연결에서의 토폴로지를 구분하여야 한다. 차량 간 연결에 있어서 기존의 링, 스타, 데이지체인, 버스 등의 토폴로지 대신 이를 조합한 하이브리드 토폴로지가 제안되었다. 이는 일렬로 연결된 철도 차량을 적절한 수의 그룹으로 묶고 그룹 내에서는 스타 네트워크 토폴로지로 구성하고 그룹 간 연결은 데이지체인 네트워크 토폴로지로 구성하는 방식이다. 이를 통해 하이브리드 토폴로지는 스타 토폴로지에 비해 차량 간 연결에 필요한 케이블의 수를 절감하고도 적절한 전송 속도를 유지할 수 있다. 하이브리드 토폴로지는 스타와 데이지 체인 두 가지 토폴로지를 절충하는 방식이므로 각각의 장점을 잘 활용할 수 있도록 그룹 내 차량의 수를 적절히 선정하는 것이 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 철도차량에서 최적의 하이브리드 네트워크 토폴로지를 구하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 이를 위해 차량 별로 데이터 생성 크기와 생성 주기가 동일하다는 가정 하에 차량 간 연결에서의 최대 케이블 수와 전송 속도에 대하여 각각 가중치를 별도로 두고 가중치 별로 전체 차량 수에 따른 최적의 그룹 내 차량의 수를 도출한다.

Carrier Ethernet, which extend The algorithm based on constructing the mixed topology and performing link stretching, MT/s, has been proposed for designing cost-efficient Carrier Ethernet in optical network with multi-line-rate. However, the MT/s algorithm has high blocking ratio because the wavelength capacity is fully allocated without considering the load balance of network. In this paper, we propose an efficient mixed topology configuration (EMTC) algorithm by modifying MT/s algorithm. In order to reduce blocking ratio, we adapt a threshold for each link to restrict the link utilization so that traffic load can be distributed over whole network. We also apply the EMTC algorithm into optical hybrid switched network to evaluate the availability of our algorithm for different applications. The performance of the EMTC algorithm is compared with that of MT/s algorithm through OPNET simulation. The simulation results show that our algorithm achieve lower blocking ratio than the MT/s algorithm. Moreover, in hybrid switched network, our algorithm performs better than MT/s algorithm in terms of packet loss ratio and end-to-end delay.

This paper proposes a new topology with active switched-capacitor and switched-inductor impedance network, which can obtain a high boost factor with small shoot-through time. The proposed topology uses an active switched capacitor and switched-inductor impedance network in order to couple the main circuit and input dc source for boosting the output voltage. The proposed topology contains all advantages of the classical Z-source inverter. Comparing with other topologies, the proposed topology uses lesser component and the voltage boost inversion ability significantly increases. The theoretical analysis, pulse width modulation control strategies, and a comparison with classical ZSI have been given in this paper. Both simulation and experimental results will be presented to verify the advantages of the proposed topology.

Internet evolves into the huge network with new nodes inserted or deleted depending on specific situations. A new model of network topology is needed in order to analyze time-varying Internet more realistically and effectively. In this study the non-monotony models are proposed which can describe topological changes of Internet such as node insertion and deletion, and can be used for predicting its future topology. Simulation is performed to analyze the topology generated by our model. Simulation results show that our proposed model conform the power law of realistic Internet better than conventional ones. The non-monotony model can be utilized for designing Internet protocols and networks with better security.

A new Z-source inverter (ZSI) topology is developed to improve voltage boost ability. The proposed topology is modified from the switched inductor topology by adding some more inductors and diodes into inductor branch to the conventional Z-source network. The modulation methods developed for the conventional ZSI can be easily utilized in the proposed ZSI. The proposed ZSI has an ability to obtain a higher voltage boost ratio compared with the conventional ZSI under the same shoot-through duty ratio. Since a smaller shoot-through duty ratio is required for high voltage boost, the proposed ZSI is able to reduce the voltage stress on Z-source capacitor and inverter-bridge. Theoretical analysis and operating principle of the proposed topology are explicitly described. In addition, the design guideline of the proposed Z-source network as well as the PWM control method to achieve the desired voltage boost factor is also analyzed in detail. The improved performances are validated by both simulation and experiment.
