Plasmodium vivax reemerged in 1993. It has been sustained for more than 25 years and become one of the important indigenous parasitic diseases in northern and western parts of the Republic of Korea near the demilitarized zone. In particular, relapse is a significant concern for the control of malaria, as short- and long-term incubation periods vary among those infected in Korea. In this study, the prevalence of asymptomatic carriers was examined among residents of high endemic areas of vivax malaria during nonseasonal transmission of mosquitoes. Blood samples from 3 endemic regions in northwestern Korea were evaluated by microscopic examination, rapid diagnostic testing, and nested PCR to identify asymptomatic patients carrying malaria parasites in the community. However, no positive malaria case among residents of endemic areas was detected. Additionally, serological analysis was carried out to measure antibodies against 3 antigenic recombinant proteins of P. vivax, merozoite surface protein 1-19, circumsporozoite surface protein-VK210, and liver-stage antigen (PvLSA-N), by the protein array method. Interestingly, seropositivity of sera between previous exposure and samples without exposure to malaria was significantly higher using the PvLSA-N antigen than the other antigens, suggesting that PvLSA-N can be used as a serological marker to analyze the degree of exposure for malaria transmission in endemic areas. This indicates a very low asymptomatic carrier prevalence during the nonmalaria season in the endemic areas of Korea.

태양광 패널 등가모델을 결합한 태양광 발전 패널 모의 장치(SAS)는 정확도 면에서 많은 장점이 있다. 특히 SAS에서 사용되는 등가회로 모델은 주변 환경에 맞게 빠르게 변하는 I-V 출력특성을 추출할 수 있어야 하며, 추출시간이 짧을수록 좋다. 본 논문은 태양광 등가회로 모델의 파라미터를 빠르게 추출하여 I-V 특성곡선을 모사할 수 있는 방법을 제안한다. 제안한 모델은 실시간으로 변화하는 태양광 패널의 출력 특성을 빠르게 모사하기 위해 미분을 사용해서 등가회로의 파라미터를 추출한다. 제안 모델의 타당성 검증은 기존의 사용하는 방법들과의 비교를 통해 진행하였고, 그 결과 정확도는 기존의 사용하는 방법과 비슷하게 유지하면서 속도는 향상됨을 확인할 수 있었다.

본 논문은 정상상태에서의 태양광 PV 모듈의 출력특성을 가지며 일사량과 온도의 변화에 따라 가 변하는 I-V 곡선의 특성을 나타내는 태양광 어레이 시뮬레이터의 제작에 관한 연구 결과이다. 본 시뮬레이터는 태양전지의 I-V 곡선상의 동작점을 실시간으로 표시하여, 가변하는 일사량과 온도를 설정하는 유저 인터페이스를 Labview 프로그램으로 구현하였으며 직류 프로그래머블 전원장치(DC programmable power supply)를 GPIB로 연결하여 구현하였다. 정상 부하조건 뿐만 아니라 개방조건, 단락조건에서도 동작하는 태양전지 동작점 추적 알고리즘을 개발하였으며 실험을 통하여 제안한 알고리즘의 효용성을 확인하였다.

This paper describes microprocessor-based control of photovoltaic power conditioning system. where the microprocessor is responsible for control of output power in accordance with the generated array DC power. The microprocessor includes the control algorithm of maximum power point tracking and converter control algorithm. In this power, we have designed a MPPT(Maximum Power Point Tracker) algorithm with environment factors and a PWM(Pulse Width Modulation) algorithm for high efficiency. The controller has been tested in the laboratory with the power conditioner and shows excellent performance.

In this paper, Simple and inexpensive analog maximum power point tracker (MPPT) algorithm for photovoltaic power system and low power system of doesn't use digital signal processor (DSP). The control circuit is composed such that the actual current and voltage are sensed directly from the PV array. These two signals are then multiplied by a single-chip multiplier. The multiplier output go through different time constants genesis pulse width modulated to switch. Finally those were verified through simulation.

An investigation into power conditioners that interface with photovoltaic array and utilities has been completed. The rating for this investigation is residential system(3-5kW) that interface with a 220V single phase utility connection. As the result of this investigation, a 3kW high frequency PWM IGBT inverter feeding a high frequency isolation transformer with a sinusoidal current wave was selected. The output of the transformer rectified with a diode bridge rectifier four IGBT, used as 60Hz switched, reverse the polarity of the rectified current on every other half cycle of the utility voltage. Even though the high frequency link system used more power semiconductors a net size, weight, and parts cost saying result compared to the other systems due to elimination of 60Hz transformer.

In a utility interactive photovoltaic system, a PWM inverter is used for the connection between the photovoltaic arrays and the utility. The DC current becomes pulsated causes the distortion of the AC current waveform. This paper presents the reduced pulsation of DC input current by operating the inverter with buck-boost chopper in the discontinuous conduction mode. The DC current with contains harmonics component is analyzed by means of separating into two terms of a ripple component and a direct component. The constant DC current without pulsation is supplied from photovoltaic array to the inverter. The proposed inverter system provide a sinusoidal AC current for domestic loads and the utility line with unity power factor.

The photovoltaic generators have a nonlinear V-I characteristics and maximum power points which vary with the illumination levels and temperatures. Using maximum power point tracker with the intermediate converter can increase the system efficiency by matching the PV systems to the load. A novel MPPT control for photovoltaic system is proposed. The system input parameters are (dP, dI, and last incremental of duty ratio $L\deltaD$)and the output is the new incremental value (new ${\deltaD}$) according to the maximum power point under various illumination levels. Using fuzzy logic controller allows extracting the maximum power rapidly and without significant oscillations. Also FLC provides excellent features such as fast response, good performance and the ability to change the fuzzy parameters to improve control system.
