In this paper, we consider an iterative learning control system(ILCS) consisting of an iterative learning controller, a feedback controller and a controlled plant in the frequency domain. At first, we review the convergence of ILCS. And we give some design guidelines of the ILCS using a nominal model of the plant. Then we present the structured and the unstructured uncertainty bound which guarantees the convergence of the designed iterative learning controller. In particular, we analyze the relationship between the convergence and the magnitude and phase uncertainties. In order to show the usefulness of the proposed analysis and design guidelines, we present some simulation examples. (author). 13 refs., 5 figs.

Penetration of renewable energy sources makes the modern interconnected power systems to have more intelligence and flexibility in the control. Hence, it is essential to maintain the system frequency and tie-line power exchange at nominal values using Load Frequency Control (LFC) for efficient, economic and reliable operation of power systems. In this paper, intelligent tuning of the Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) controller for LFC in an interconnected power system is considered as a main objective. The chosen problem is formulated as an optimization problem and the optimal gain parameters of PID controllers are computed with three innovative swarm intelligent algorithms named Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), Bacterial Foraging Optimization Algorithm (BFOA) and hybrid Bacterial Foraging Particle Swarm Optimization (BFPSO) and a comparative study is made between them. A new objective function designed with necessary time domain specifications using weighted sum approach is also offered in this report and compared with conventional objective functions. All the simulation results clearly reveal that, the hybrid BFPSO tuned PID controller with proposed objective function has better control performances over other optimization methodologies.

Correct and fast detection of a micro-grid (MG) islanding is essential to the MG since operation, control and protection of the MG depend on an operating mode i.e., an interconnected mode or an islanding mode. When islanding occurs, the frequency of the point of common coupling (PCC) is not the nominal frequency during the transient state owing to the frequency rise or drop of generators in the MG. Thus, the active and reactive power calculated by the frequency domain based method such as Fourier Transform might contain some errors. This paper proposes an islanding detection algorithm for the MG based on the instantaneous active and reactive powers delivered to the dedicated line in the time domain. During the islanding mode, the instantaneous active and reactive powers delivered to the dedicated line are constants, which depend on the voltage of the PCC and the impedance of the dedicated line. In this paper, the instantaneous active and reactive powers are calculated in the time domain and used to detect islanding. The performance of the proposed algorithm is verified under various scenarios including islanding conditions, fault conditions and load variation using the PSCAD/EMTDC simulator. The results indicate that the algorithm successfully detects islanding for the MG.

In a conventional power system, the frequency is recovered to the nominal value by the inertial, primary, and secondary responses of the synchronous generators (SGs) after a large disturbance such as a generator tripping. For a power system with high wind penetration, the system inertia is significantly reduced due to the maximum power point tracking control based operation of the variable speed wind generators (WGs). This paper proposes a virtual inertial control for a wind power plant (WPP) based on the maximum rate of change of frequency to release more kinetic energy stored in the WGs. The performance of the proposed algorithm is investigated in a model system, which consists of a doubly fed induction generator-based WPP and SGs using an EMTP-RV simulator. The results indicate that the proposed algorithm can improve the frequency nadir after a generator tripping. In addition, the algorithm can lead the instant of a frequency rebound and help frequency recovery after the frequency rebound.

The frequency of a power system should be maintained within the allowed limits for stable operation. When a disturbance such as generator tripping occurs in a power system, the frequency is recovered to the nominal value through the inertial, primary, and secondary responses of the operating synchronous generators (SGs). However, for a power system with high wind penetration, the system inertia will decrease significantly because wind generators (WGs) are operating decoupled from the power system. This paper proposes a dynamic droop-based inertial control for a WG. The proposed inertial control determines the dynamic droop depending on the rate of change of frequency (ROCOF). At the initial period of a disturbance, where the ROCOF is large, the droop is set to be small to release a large amount of the kinetic energy (KE) and thus the frequency nadir can be increased significantly. However, as times goes on, the ROCOF will decrease and thus the droop is set to be large to prevent over-deceleration of the rotor speed of a WG. The performance of the proposed inertial control was investigated in a model system, which includes a 200 MW wind power plant (WPP) and five SGs using an EMTP-RV simulator. The test results indicate that the proposed scheme improves the frequency nadir significantly by releasing a large amount of the KE during the initial period of a disturbance.

해수 중에 보론은 주로 붕산(boric acid, $B(OH)_3$)으로 존재하며 그 크기가 역삼투압(RO, reverse osmosis) 공정의 막의 공칭공경(nominal pore size)만큼 작아 이를 제거하기가 쉽지 않다. 이에 본 연구에서는 수용액 중 보론 화합물의 크기를 역삼투압 공정에서 제거가 용이하도록 키우기 위한 방법으로 $B(OH)_3$가 폴리올과 착화합물을 형성하는 원리를 이용하고자하며 착화합물의 형성 여부를 라만 분광학 연구를 통해 확인하고자 하였다. 먼저 $B(OH)_3$와 붕산염(borate ion, ${B(OH)_4}^-$) 이온의 대칭(symmetric) B-O 신축운동 모드(stretching vibrational mode)의 진동수를 확인하기 위하여 pH를 증가시키며 라만 스펙트럼을 측정한 결과 $877cm^{-1}$에서 $730cm^{-1}$으로 피크의 이동이 관찰되었다. 이는 수용액 중의 $B(OH)_3$가 pH가 증가하면서 ${B(OH)_4}^-$로 전환됨을 나타내고 이러한 피크의 이동은 진동수 계산(frequency calculation)에 의한 예측과 정확하게 일치하였다. 반면 $B(OH)_3$ 수용액에 폴리올을 첨가한 경우 pH가 증가하여도 ${B(OH)_4}^-$의 특성 진동수인 $730cm^{-1}$가 나타나지 않았으며 이는 $B(OH)_3$가 ${B(OH)_4}^-$로 전환되는 것이 아니라 폴리올과 착화합물을 형성함을 간접적으로 보여주고 있다.

A flat conversion loss in microwave mixer is hard to achieve if integrating with an image rejection filter(IRF). This is due to the change of termination condition with respect to the LO and IF frequency at RF port where the filter has 50 ohm termination property only in the RF band. This paper describes a flatness maintenance in the down mixer concerning a diode matching condition as well as an electrical length of embedding line at RF port. The implemented single balance diode mixer is suitable for a 23 ㎓ European Terrestrial Radio. RF, LO and fixed IF frequency chosen in this paper are 21.2∼22.4 ㎓, 22.4∼23.6 ㎓ and 1.2 ㎓, respectively. The measured results show a conversion loss of 8.5 ㏈, flatness of 1.2 ㏈ p-p, input P1㏈ of 7㏈m, IIP3 of 15.42 ㏈m with nominal LO power level of 10㏈m. The return loss of RF and LO port are less than - 15 ㏈ and - 12 ㏈, respectively and IF port is less than - 6 ㏈. LO/RF and LO/IF isolation are 18 ㏈ and 50 ㏈, respectively. This approach would be a helpful reference for designing up/down converter possessing a filtering element.

In this paper, a novel circuit topology of a three-winding coupling inductor-assisting a high-frequency PWM boost chopper type DC-DC power converter with a high boost voltage conversion ratio and low switch voltage stress is proposed for the new energy interfaced DC power conditioner in solar photovoltaic and fuel cell generation systems. The operating principle in a steady state is described by using its equivalent circuits under the practical condition of energy processing of a lossless capacitive snubber. The newly-proposed power MOSFET boost chopper type DC-DC power converter with the three-winding coupled inductor type transformer and a single lossless capacitor snubber is built and tested for an output power of 500W. Utilizing the lower voltage and internal resistance power MOSFET switch in the proposed PWM boost chopper type DC-DC power converter can reduce the conduction losses of the active power switch compared to the conventional model. Therefore, the total actual power conversion efficiency under a condition of the nominal rated output power is estimated to be 81.1 ％, which is 3.7％ higher than the conventional PWM boost chopper DC power conversion circuit topology.

Recently, the application and installation of the pod propeller to the cruise ship is dramatically increased. It is because pod propulsion system allows a lot of flexibility in design of the internal arrangement of a ship. To reflect this trend, many researches have conducted to use the pod propeller for the roll stabilization of a ship. In the paper, a roll stabilization controller is designed by using fins and pod propellers as the control actuators for cruise ships. Two kinds of control algorithms are adopted for the roll control system; LQR (Linear Quadratic Regulator) algorithm and frequency-weighted LQR algorithm. Through the numerical simulation, the effect of the turning rate of the pod propeller on the roll control system is analyzed. Analysis of the simulation results indicated that the turning rate of the pod propellers is one of the important parameters which give the significant effects on the roll stabilization.
