An edge-located electromagnetic bandgap (EL-EBG) structure using a defected ground structure (DGS) is proposed to suppress resonant modes induced by edge excitation in a two-dimensional planar parallel plate waveguide (PPW). The proposed EL-DGS-EBG PPW significantly mitigates multiple transverse-magnetic (TM) modes in a wideband frequency range corresponding to an EBG stopband. To verify the wideband suppression, test vehicles of a conventional PPW, a PPW with a mushroom-type EBG structure, and an EL-DGS-EBG PPW are fabricated using a commercial process involving printed circuit boards (PCBs). Measurements of the input impedances show that multiple resonant modes of the previous PPWs are significantly excited through an input port located at a PPW edge. In contrast, resonant modes in the EL-DGS-EBG PPW are substantially suppressed over the frequency range of 0.5 GHz to 2 GHz. In addition, we have experimentally demonstrated that the EL-DGS-EBG PPW reduces the radiated emission from -24 dB to -44 dB as compared to the conventional PPW.

With the rapid growth of the Internet, various web-based businesses are creating a new environment in an imaginary space. However, this expanding Internet and user increase cause an overflow of transmission and numerous subordinate problems. To solve these problems, a parallel cluster system is produced using different methods. This thesis recommends a multi0distribution cluster group. It constructs a MPP dynamic distribution sub-cluster group using numerous low-priced and low-speed systems. This constructed sub-cluster group is then connected with a singular virtual IP to finally serve the needs of clients (users). This multi-distribution cluster group consists of an upper structure based on LVS and a dynamic serve cluster group centered around an SC-server. It conducts the workloads required from users in a parallel process. In addition to the web service, this multi-distribution cluster group can efficiently be utilized for the calculations which require database controls and a great number of parallel calculations as well as additional controls with result from the congestion of service.

This paper for establishing the reliability of the TPC command is introduced, where the soft symbol of the TPC command itself is directed used as a reliability indicator. In addition to the new reliability estimation, the concept of parallel use of TPC algorithms is presented. The results show that the soft symbol reliability estimation decrease the $P_{tx}$ levels with 0.3 dB, thus providing a useful capacity gain. The parallel use of 2 to 4 algorithms is also shown to decrease the sensitivity of the algorithms to the algorithm thresholds used, and thus increase the feasibility of the algorithms in a real world networks.

In this paper, a mask-panel alignment robot system is considered for IT industry applications. Two kinds of solutions are suggested which are required in constructing a control system for the alignment robot with actuation redundancy. First, the kinematic solution for the 4PPR parallel positioning mechanism is formulated for an arbitrary initial posture, which relates the mask-panel misalignment in the task space and the desired actuator displacements in the joint space. Secondly, in order to increase the stiffness of the control motion and also to avoid the mechanical lock which may happen due to the redundant actuation, a new synchronous control method is proposed which has the merit of coordinating joint control motions while not losing individual joint control performance. In addition, the engineering process to develop a visual alignment robot system is described with the results of experimental setup and GUI software. Finally, the experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed alignment system control methodology and how much beneficial it will be in real industrial applications.

This paper proposes a controller design method for suppressing the resonance generated in the slave motor in the middle and low speed operation range, according to the load and parameter differences between two motors, during parallel operation using the master and slave method that controls two surface permanent magnet synchronous motors connected in parallel by a single inverter. The proposed resonance suppression controller is directly obtained by analyzing the resonance characteristics, using the lead controller method. Therefore, it is possible to fundamentally reduce trial and error to set the controller gain. In addition, because the proposed resonance suppression controller was designed as a lead controller, the stability region of the system increased owing to the added zero point, making the system robust with respect to parametric variations. Simulations and experiments confirmed the usefulness of the proposed method and the system's robustness with respect to parametric variations.

In this paper, the charging characteristics of series resonant type high voltage capacitor chargers considering the transformer stray capacitance have been studied. The principles of operation for the four operational modes and the mode changes for the four different switching frequency sections are explained and analyzed in the range of switching frequency below the resonant frequency. It is confirmed that the average charging currents derived from the above analysis results have non-linear characteristics in each of the four modes. The resonant current, resonant voltage, charging current, and charging time of this capacitor charger as variations of the switching frequency, series parallel capacitance ratio ($k=C_p/C_s$), and output voltage are calculated. From the calculation results, the advantages and disadvantages arising from the parallel connection of this stray capacitance are described. Some methods to minimize charging time of this capacitor charger are suggested. In addition, the results of a comparative test using two transformers whose stray capacitances are different are described. A 1.8 kJ/s prototype capacitor charger is assembled with a TI28335 DSP controller and a 40 kJ, 7 kV capacitor. The analysis results are verified by the experiment.

The superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) plays a role in compensating the voltage sag of the sound feeder adjacent to the fault feeder as well as the fault current limiting operation of the fault feeder. Especially, the SFCL using magnetic coupling of two coils with parallel connection has different voltage sag compensating and current limiting characteristics due to the winding direction and the inductance ratio of two coils. In this paper, the current limiting and the voltage sag compensating characteristics of a SFCL using magnetic coupling of parallel connected two coils were analyzed. Through the analysis on the experimental results considering the winding direction of two coils, the SFCL designed with the additive polarity winding was shown to have the higher limited fault current than the SFCL designed with the subtractive polarity winding. In addition, it could be confirmed that the higher fault current limitation of the SFCL could be contributed to the higher load voltage sag compensation.

Laser processing has been used in various fields. In this study, the feasibility of a hydrophobic surface was investigated through the laser cladding technique. A diode laser was used, and the output was set to 600-800 W. Seven different specimens were prepared with different cladding widths and spacings, and the contact angles for water droplets were evaluated. As a result, the contact angle of water droplets measured in the direction parallel to the cladding line was higher than that in the vertical direction. The wider the cladding width and the cladding space, the higher the contact angle in the parallel direction. It is thought that when a higher contact angle is formed in the parallel direction, more air can be placed in the valley between the cladding lines. In addition, for the hydrophobic coating effect, the contact angle of the coated cladding surface was increased by about $5-15^{\circ}$ as a whole compared to the coated smooth surface. It was confirmed that the wetting characteristics were improved through the cladding.

In this paper, a generalized efficiency equation was proposed to estimate the internal loss of the SMPS (switched-mode power supply) with 3 variables. The first variable was an internal loss not related to the load current such as auxiliary power, the second was a loss proportional to the current such as diode loss, and the third was a loss proportional to square of the current such as conduction loss. Especially, theoretical internal losses of the totem pole bridgeless PFC which is widely used for high efficiency SMPS were expressed as output function to compare generalized efficiency equation. In addition, in order to reduce the conduction loss of the switch, when a multiple switch were paralleled, the correlation with the efficiency was analyzed and shown as a graph. In order to confirm the degree of the parallel switch structure on the efficiency improvement, a 2kW class totem pole bridgeless PFC was constructed and the effectiveness of the analysis was confirmed by comparing the generalized efficiency equation and theoretical loss analysis results with experimental data.
