This paper proposes an automatic bandwidth control method for the performance improvement of Binary Amplitude Shift Keying (BASK) system for Giga-Bit Modem in millimeter band. In order to improve the performance of the BASK system with a fixed bandwidth, the proposed method is to adjust a bandwidth of low pass filter in receiver using the fuzzy system. The BASK system consists of a high speed shutter of the transmitter and a counter and a repeater of receiver. The repeater consists of four stage converters, and a converter is constructed with a low pass filter and a limiter. The inputs to the fuzzy system are the reminder and integral of remainder of counter, and output is a bandwidth. We used a Viterbi algorithm to find the optimum detection from the output of the counter. Simulation results showed that the proposed system improves the performance compared to the fixed bandwidth.

A number of techniques have been developed for estimation of speed or position in motor drives. The accuracy of these techniques is affected by the variation of motor parameters such as the stator resistance, stator inductance or torque constant. This paper is proposed a neural network based estimator for torque and ststor resistance in IPMSM Drives. The neural weights are initially chosen randomly and a model reference algorithm adjusts those weights to give the optimum estimations. The neural network estimator is able to track the varying parameters quite accurately at different speeds with consistent performance. The neural network parameter estimator has been applied to slot and flux linkage torque ripple minimization of the IPMSM. The validity of the proposed parameter estimator is confirmed by the operating characteristics controlled by neural networks control.

In this paper, a new method to solve the dynamic response problem for structures with interval parameters is presented. It is difficult to obtain all possible solutions with sharp bounds even an optimum scheme is adopted when there are many interval structural parameters. With the interval algorithm, the expressions of the interval stiffness matrix, damping matrix and mass matrices are developed. Based on the matrix perturbation theory and interval extension of function, the upper and lower bounds of dynamic response are obtained, while the sharp bounds are guaranteed by the interval operations. A numerical example, dynamic response analysis of a box cantilever beam, is given to illustrate the validity of the present method.

Linear displacement accuracy is one of the most important factors that determine machine tool accuracy. The laser interferometer has been usually recommended for the measurement of linear displacement accuracy. In this paper, microcomputer aided measurement and compensation system has been developed forthe pitch error in a CNC machine tool. For accurate pitch error calculation, the analysis code for the pitch error has been also implemented according to the international standards(ISO). The PC based automatic compensation system for the pitch error is also implemented. A new algorithm for calculating optimum value for pitch error compensation is proposed, minimizing the deviation at each target points. The development system has been applied to a practical CNC maching center and the performance has been demonstrated.

This paper proposes a new method for accelerating the search speed of genetic algorithms by taking derivative evaluation and conditional random selection into account in their evolution process. Derivative evaluation makes genetic algorithms focus on the individuals whose fitness is rapidly increased. This accelerates the search speed of genetic algorithms by enhancing exploitation like steepest descent methods but also increases the possibility of a premature convergence that means most individuals after a few generations approach to local optima. On the other hand, derivative evaluation under a premature convergence helps genetic algorithms escape the local optima by enhancing exploration. If GAs fall into a premature convergence, random selection is used in order to help escaping local optimum, but its effects are not large. We experimented our method with one combinatorial problem and five complex function optimization problems. Experimental results showed that our method was superior to the simple genetic algorithm especially when the search space is large.

Switched reluctance motor(SRM) has some advantages such as low cost, high torque density but SRM has essentially high torque ripple due to its salient structure. In order to apply SRM to industrial field, torque ripple has to be reduced. This paper introduces optimal design process of SRM using an optimization algorithm of Progressive Quadratic Response Surface Modeling(PQRSM) and two-dimensional(2D) Finite Element Method(FEM). The electrical and geometrical design parameters have been adopted as 2D design variables. From this work, it can be obtained both the optimal design minimized torque ripple and the optima1 design maximized the average torque, respectively. Finally, this Paper Presents Performance comparison of two optimal designs and consider influence of the selected design variables in torque characteristics.

In this paper, we preposed a chaos optimization method to reduce computational effort and enhance optimality of the solution in feeder reconfiguration problem. Chaos method in optimization problem searches the global optimal solution on the regularity of chaotic motions and more easily escapes from local or near optimal solution than stochastic optimization algorithms. The chaos optimization method is tested on 15 buses and 32 buses distribution systems, and the test results indicate that it is able to determine appropriate switching options for global optimum configuration with less computation.

The UPFC is known to have the ability to control both the real power flow and the reactive power flow. [1],[2] The power flow in the system is heavily related with the system security. [4] This paper deals with the operation of the UPFC to increase the power system security. The concept of the power system security is verified and the index to indicate the power system security level is suggested. And the algorithm to find the optimum operation point of the UPFC improving the system security level is presented.

The evolution strategy is a good evolutionary algorithm to find the global optimum of a real-valued function. Since many engineering problems can be formulated as real valued function optimization, the evolution strategy is frequently employed in engineering fields. However, in many engineering optimization problems, an optimization parameter is often restricted in the bounded region between two specified values, the minimum and the maximum limit, respectively. Since an offspring individual is generated randomly around a parent individual during mutation process of the evolution strategy, an individual outside the search region can be generated even if the parent is inside the search region. This paper proposes two new boundary-handling techniques for evolution strategies. One is the ...

This paper presents a design of FIR near-equiripple Nyquist filters having zero-intersymbol interference (ISI) and low sensitivity to timing jitter, with coefficients taking only discrete values. Using an affine scaling linear programming algorithm, an optimum discrete coefficient set can be obtained in a feasible computational time. Also presented is a pipelined multiplier-free FIR filter realization with periodically time-varying (PTV) coefficients based on a hybrid form suitable for Nyquist filter. The realization exploits the coefficient symmetry to reduce the hardware by about one half. High speed computation and low power consumption are achieved by its pipelined and low fan-out structure.
