The conventional fluorescent lamp dimming system using an another control line is complex and will increased the cost. Therefore, many studies have focused on the wireless communication, but it is not fit for dimming system because of the interference generated by the infra-red light of lamp or switching noises in ballast. So, we applied the power line communication on the dimming system and we proposed a new coupling circuit using the voltage controlled impedance convertor for improving the performance of the FH/SS PLC modem. The performance for the proposed modem is evaluted by the BER.

The power line channel has time-variant characteristics caused by various kind of electrical devices. This characteristics are synchronized with the main voltage by their own characteristics. The main factors of disturbance are the variation of the channel impedance and noises. In other papers, the synchronous noise modeling has been achieved. But the modeling is not satisfied simultaneously with the time domain and the frequency domain and there are not any discussion about short-term variations of the channel impedance which cause to the signal fading. Therefore, this paper researched to solve problems about the signal fading by analyzing the short-term variation of the channel impedance, and proposed the synchronous noise modeling which is satisfied simultaneously in the time domain and the frequency domain.

This paper investigates impulsive noise from a pole transformer in low voltage distribution system for power line communication. EMI noise from the pole transformer is indicated from the experiment. The noise has certain characteristics because it is caused by partial discharge. The noise level is above -35dBm without a filter. Therefore, the filter which is made of ferrite is used in order to eliminate the noise. the noise filters should be applied to both the phase line and the neutral line. Otherwise, It is likely to have little overall impact on elimination of noises. the performance of filter is verified with various experiments. In conclusion, the equivalent circuit of power line communication including noise source is described as a lumped circuit.

A high output power voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) in the U-band was implemented using a 65 nm CMOS process. The proposed VCO used a transmission line to increase output voltage swing and overcome the limitations of CMOS technologies. Two varactor banks were used for fine tuning with a 5% frequency tuning range. The proposed VCO showed small variation in output voltage and operated at 51.55-54.18 GHz. The measured phase noises were -51.53 dBc/Hz, -91.84 dBc/Hz, and -101.07 dBc/Hz at offset frequencies of 10 kHz, 1 MHz, and 10 MHz, respectively, with stable output power. The chip area, including the output buffer, is $0.16{\times}0.16mm^2$ and the maximum output power was -0.11 dBm. The power consumption was 33.4 mW with a supply voltage of 1.2-V. The measured $FOM_P$ was -190.8 dBc/Hz.

Recently, there a lot of activities on the researches that implement many kinds of control system using power lines. To implement that, it is desirable to use hybrid PSK model because it takes advantage of PSK and DPSK which has a low-bit-error rate. In this parer, we implement the transmitter of this model. Because the power line is not designed for the data communication, we separated the signal generator circuit and the signal loading circuit so that minimized noises from outside. Also, to make it easy on the experiments, most of process are performed by software. As a result, transmitting a high frequency signal on the power line made no effects on the electrical devices.

전력선 통신은 전력선 채널의 특성이 전력선에 연결된 부하에 의해 변화하는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 이러한 문제점을 극복하기 위한 한 가지 방법으로 대역확산(Spread Spectrum) 방식이 사용되어 왔으며, 그 중 DS/SS (Direct Sequence/Spread Spectrum)은 별다른 Hardware의 추가 없이 구현할 수 있다는 장점을 가지고 있다. DS/SS 시스템에서는 의사잡음(PN code)의 Chip수가 길어질 수 록 에러율이 감소하게 되지만, 저속 전력선 모뎀의 경우 긴 Chip수를 사용할 경우 원하는 데이터 전송 속도를 얻어내기 힘들다. Dual-processing Gain을 가지는 Spread Spectrum 시스템은 전력선 잡음의 주기적 특성을 반영하고자 하였다. 그러나 제안되었던 시스템은 잡음의 형태가 전원전압의 1/4주기를 기준으로 대칭적이라는 가정 하에서 적용되어 실제 여러 형태의 전력선 잡음을 반영하지 못하였다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 여러 잡음의 형태에 따라 PN code의 Chip수가 주기적으로 변경되도록 알고리즘을 구현하여 시스템을 구성 후 시뮬레이션 하였다. 시뮬레이션 시 부하의 잡음을 측정 및 모델링하여 시뮬레이션 하였으며, 구성된 시스템은 여러 전력선 채널의 잡음상황 하에서 실제 데이터 전송 속도를 적게 감소시키면서 에러율은 효과적으로 감소시키는 것을 확인하였다.

This letter describes a two-phase clock oxide thin-film transistor shift register that executes a robust operation over a wide threshold voltage range and clock coupling noises. The proposed circuit employs an additional Q generation block to avoid the clock coupling noise effects. A SMART-SPICE simulation shows that the stable shift register operation is established for the clock coupling noises and the threshold voltage variation from -4 V to 5 V at a line time of $5{\mu}s$. The magnitude of coupling noises on the Q(15) node and Qb(15) node of the 15th stage is respectively -12.6 dB and -26.1 dB at 100 kHz in the proposed circuit, compared to 6.8 dB and 10.9 dB in a conventional one. In addition, the estimated power consumption is 1.74 mW for the proposed 16-stage shift registers at $V_{TH}=-1.56V$, compared to 11.5 mW for the conventional circuits.

In this paper, PLC which can be installed easily and is stable to transfer datum, is tested for approving its application in a real ship. Internet access service, CCTV monitoring, light control and huge sensor communications are needed for enhancing the convenience and safety of passengers and crew in ships. In order to apply PLC in ships, we surveyed some noises interrupting PLC in ships and investigated the PLC characteristics. The Hannara, a training ship of Korea Maritime University, was used for the test. We measured and analyzed blocking noises using by NI's SCXI-1001. When noises of specific frequency band occurred near the PLC frequency band, PLC transfer capacity was low for mass datum. We developed and verified some methods to apply PLC in a ship under lots of noises.

Accident dangerousness of domestic hydro power generators which are operated in Korea is on the increase because of use at the long term. On this, the Off-line diagnosis techniques developed to the On-line by continued domestic technical development since 2000. Especially, On-line insulation diagnosis of domestic hydro power generator is possible by localization of partial electric discharge sensor and On-line insulation diagnosis system. This paper shows the diagnosis result that is applied localized Ceramic Coupler and PDMS-HG(Partial Discharge Monitoring System for Hydro Generator) at four Chung-ju hydro Generator used for 25 years. Particularly, the confidence of insulation diagnosis is improved by using high frequency filter and sampling the partial discharge signals which occur in site. For reviewing the confidence of On-Line insulation diagnosis system, we measured the outside noises and partial discharge signals during practical operation by using the partial discharge diagnosis system of the Full A/D process. And we reviewed the confidence of the On-Line insulation diagnosis system by comparing and analyzing these data.

A distributed FBG temperature sensor system was constructed for the use in protection of electric power system. A F-P wavelength tunable filter is used converting temperature-induced wavelength variations to temporal peak locations. We used Gaussian line-fitted algorithm to alleviate the error caused by quantization and electrical noises. The experimental results showed much better accuracy than the raw peak-detection scheme.
