In this paper, we study the NvBAT treatment for AIDS patients that is combined with PI rather than RTI, while the Previous results have been focused on the NvBAT in conjuction with RTI. To this end, we obtain a bifurcation diagram which shows a change in the equilibrium points, and in their stability properties as the PI drug effect is varied. Based on the bifurcation diagram, we show that the NvBAT can be combined with drug PI for the treatment of AIDS patients. Various computer simulation results are included, which show the superiority of the NvBAT with PI over that with RTI. Accordition to simulation result, the NvBAT combined with PI is able to keep virus load level lower than that combined with RTI, which is crucial to avoid the emergence of drug-resistant mutants. Moreover, it is shown that, for some AIDS patients, NvBAT with RTI cannot make patients into long term non-progressor, while NvBAT with PI can.

Medium voltage control applications due to obtain better output voltage and reduced electro-magnetic interference multi level inverter is used. In closed loop control with inverter, the PI controller does not operate satisfactorily when the operating point changes. This paper presents the performance of Co-Efficient diagram PI controller based indirect vector controlled induction motor drive fed from three-level inverter under different operating conditions (dynamic and steady state). The proposed Co-Efficient diagram PI controller based three level inverter significantly reduces the torque ripple compared to that of conventional PI controller. The performance of the indirect vector controlled induction motor drive has been simulated at different operating conditions. For three-level inverter control, a simplified space vector modulation technique is implemented, which reduces the coordinate transformations complications in the algorithms. The performance parameters, torque ripple contents and THD of induction motor drive with three-level inverter is compared under different operating conditions using CDM-PI and conventional PI controllers.

We examine phase transition of the spin density wave and $\pi$ phase shifted superconductivity in the Fe pnictide superconductors. The phase diagram is described in the plane of the temperature T and the doping x with the combination of Ginzburg-Landau expansion of the free energy near the multi-critical temperature $T_c$ and the self-consistent numerical iterations of the gap equations. The phase separation or coexistence is determined by computing the 4-th order terms of the free energy which is confirmed by the numerical calculations. We can show the phase coexistence when the spin density wave is incommensurate. And the first order phase transition is observed near the boundary between commensurate and incommensurate spin density wave.

This paper deals with optimum PI controller design using genetic algorithm to improve control performance and robustness for an oil cooler system. The optimum PI gain was found to minimize an object function, integrated absolute error, and to satisfy control design specifications such as overshoot and settling time based on practical transfer function of the oil cooler system. The control performance and robustness were investigated by comparing indicial responses and Bode diagram analysis with respect to three kinds of PI gains obtained from different gain decision manners. Moreover, the robustness against to input disturbances, sinusoidal wave form and abrupt single pulse, was evaluated. The computer simulation results showed that the suggested optimum gain can establish desirable control performance and strong robustness with easy design process.

This paper represents a systematic approach aimed at improving the performance of the proportional integral (PI) controller for the Advanced Power Reactor (APR) 1400 Feedwater Control System (FWCS). When the performance of the PI controller offers superior control and enhanced robustness, the steam generator (SG) level is properly controlled. This leads to the safe operation and increased the availability of the nuclear power plant. In this paper, a systems engineering approach is used in order to design a novel PI controller for the FWCS. In the reverse engineering stage, the existing FWCS configuration, especially the characteristics of the feedwater controller as well as the feedwater flow path to each SG from the FWCS, were reviewed and analysed. The overall block diagram of the FWCS and the SG was also developed in the reverse engineering process. In the re-engineering stage, the actual design of the feedwater PI controller was carried out using a genetic algorithm (GA). Lastly, in the validation and verification phase, the existing PI controller and the PI controller designed using GA method were simulated in Simulink/Matlab. From the simulation results, the GA-PI controller was found to exhibit greater stability than the current controller of the FWCS.

This paper describes a dual channel receiver design for CIS interfaces. Each channel includes CTLE(Continuous Time Linear Equalizer), sampler, deserializer and clocking circuit. The clocking circuit is composed of PLL, PI and CDR. Fast lock acquisition time, short latency and better jitter tolerance are achieved by adding OSPD(Over Sampling Phase Detector) and FSM(Finite State Machine) to PI-based CDR. The CTLE removes ISI caused by channel with -6 dB attenuation and the lock acquisition time of the CDR is below 1 baud period in frequency offset under 8000ppm. The voltage margin is 368 mV and the timing margin is 0.93 UI in eye diagram using 65 nm CMOS technology.

This paper provides sufficient conditions for the robustness of Affine linear TFM(Transfer Function Matrix) MIMO (Multi-Input Multi-Output) uncertain systems based on Rosenbrock's DNA (Direct Nyquist Array). The parametric uncertainty is modeled through a Affine TFM MIMO description, and the unstructured uncertainty through a bounded perturbation of Affine polynomials. Gershgorin's theorem and concepts of diagonal dominance and GB(Gershgorin Bands) are extended to include model uncertainty. For this type of parametric robust performance we show robustness of the Affine TFM systems using Nyquist diagram and GB, DNA(Direct Nyquist Array). Multiloop PI/PB controllers can be tuned by using a modified version of the Ziegler-Nickels (ZN) relations. Simulation examples show the performance and efficiency of the proposed multiloop design method.

A design of PI controller to be used to control the first-order lag plus dead time process, such as a flow process, by the coefficient diagram method (CDM) is investigated. The factor of the dead time of process is first approximated to be the first-order by the Pade approximation. The response of the flow control system designed by CDM satisfy both transient and steady state specifications. However, the transient response generally still has long rise time. In order to improve the speed of the system response, a feedforward controller (FFC) is added into the PI control system. The structure of the FFC is a phase lead structure with two designed parameters and one derivative time obtained from the reaction curve of the flow process ...

In this paper, ${\pi}/4$-DQPSK modem according to ITU-R M.1842-1 recommendation Annex1 is investigated and simulated. At first, standardization and technical trend of VHF maritime mobile communication are introduced. The ${\pi}/4$-DQPSK modem defined in the Annex1 should support 28.8Kbps bit transmission rate within 25KHz frequency bandwidth. We describe the system model and simulation process of ${\pi}/4$-DQPSK modem transmitter and receiver design with RRC(Root Raised Cosine) transmitter and receiver filter. Then we suggest various graphical simulation results(time domain signals, constellation, power spectral density according to roll-off factor, eye diagram), and show simulated BER performance of the modem. From the simulation results, it is shown that roll-off factor of RRC filter affects to BER performance according to SNR and the designed simulation model meets the spectrum mask requirement suggested in ITU-R M.1842-1 recommendation.

In this paper, we describe a multiprocessor system using the HiPi bus with pended protocol and multiple cache memories, and evalute the performance of the multiprocessor system in terms of processor utilization for various cache coherence protocols. The HiPi bus is delveloped as the shared bus of TICOM II which is a main computer system to establish a nation-wide computing network in ETRI. The HiPi bus has high data transfer rate, but it doesn't allow cache-to-cache transfer. In order to evaluate the effect of cache-to-cache transfer upon the performance of system and to choose a best-performed protocol for HiPi bus, we simulate as follows: First, we analyze the performance of multiprocessor system with HiPi bus in terms of processor utilizatIOn through simulation. Each of cache coherence protocol is described by state transition diagram, and then the probability of each state is calculated by Markov steady state. The calculated probability of each state is used as input parameters of simulation, and modeling and simulation are implemented and performed by using SLAM II graphic symbols and language. Second, we propose the HiPi bus which supports cache-to-cache transfer, and analyze the performance of multiprocessor system with proposed HiPi bus in terms of processor utilization through simulation. Considered cache coherence protocols for the simulation are Write-through, Write-once, Berkely, Synapse, Illinois, Firefly, and Dragon.
