The MESFET can be used as a three-terminal varactor by employing gate depletion capacitance Cg. In this paper, a novel VCDRO(voltage controlled dielecric resonator oscillator) is designed to apply VCDRO with this concept. The VCDRO produced 6.33dBm output power at a frequency of 11.058GHz and tunning bandwidth of 45MHz. The advantage of using the MESFET as a three-terminal varactor is to let the MESFET play both roles at the same time, thus simplifying the circuit configuration and fabrication. This finding demonstrates the potential of using both real and imaginary parts of the equivalent impedance of the active device.

Digital protective relay in power system play a prominent part. Simulators for the relay test were introduced in early 1980's. A number of open loop designs have been developed and recently, several developments of real-time simulators have been reported. But they are very high cost. And then they are difficult to apply for relay testing in small business. This paper presents the structure of low cost and performance of a new pc based tester for digital protective relay testing. The proposed tester was simulated of off-line with fault transient signals obtained from EMTP.

Power quality is a term that is now extensively used in power systems applications, and in this context the voltage, current, and phase angle are discussed widely. In particular, different algorithms that are capable of detecting the voltage sag and swell information in a real time environment have been proposed and developed. Voltage sag and swell play an important role in determining the stability, quality, and operation of a power system. This paper presents ANFIS (Adaptive Network based Fuzzy Inference System) models with different membership functions to build the voltage shape with the knowledge of known system parameters, and detect voltage sag and swell accurately. The performance of each method has been compared with each other/other methods to determine the effectiveness of the different models, and the results are presented.

In the modern life, machines are used for various areas in industries as the advance of science and industrial development has proceeded. In many machines, the rotating machines play an important role in many processes. Therefore, the development of fault diagnosis and monitoring system for rotating machines is required. An ubiquitous sensor network (USN) is a combination of the key computer science and engineering area technology including the wireless network, embedded system hardware and software, communication, real-time system, etc. It collects environmental information to realize a variety of functions. In this work, a data reduction algorithm for USN based remote fault diagnostic system which can be easily applied to previously built factories is proposed. To verify the feasibility of the proposed scheme, some simulations and experiments are executed.

Distributed Generation (DG) is predicted to play a important role in electric power system in the near future. insertion of DG system into existing distribution network has great impact on real-time system operation and planning. It is widely accepted that micro turbine generation (MTG) systems are currently attracting lot of attention to meet customers need in the distributed power generation market. In order to investigate the performance of MT generation systems, their efficient modeling is required. This paper presents the modeling and simulation of a MT generation system suitable for isolated operation. The system comprises of a Permanent magnet synchronous generator driven by a MT. A brief description of the overall system is given, and mathematical models for the MT and permanent magnet synchronous generator are presented. Also, the use of power electronics in conditioning the power output of the generating system is demonstrated. Simulation studies with MATLAB/Simulink have been carried out in islanding operation mode of a DG system.

Emerging sensor-based structural health monitoring (SHM) technology can play an important role in inspecting and securing the safety of aging civil infrastructure, a worldwide problem. However, implementation of SHM in civil infrastructure faces a significant challenge due to the lack of suitable sensors and reliable methods for interpreting sensor data. This paper reviews recent efforts and advances made in addressing this challenge, with example sensor hardware and software developed in the author's research center. It is proposed to integrate real-time continuous monitoring using on structure sensors for global structural integrity evaluation with targeted NDE inspection for local damage assessment.

오늘날 차량은 고성능화 및 이용자의 편의를 증진시키기 위하여 다양한 전자장비가 탑재 되고 있다. 이러한 전자장비들을 효율적으로 제어하기 위하여 신뢰성이 입증된 CAN(controller Area Network)이 보편적으로 적용된다. 또한 수신만 가능한 노드(node)는 기존시스템에 추가가 가능하지만 송 수신을 항수 있는 노드를 추가 하는 경우에는 전체 시스템을 변경 시스템을 변경 시스템을 변경해야 하는 경우가 발생할 수 있다. 이러한 특징을 해결하기 위하여 본 논문에서는 CAN 코디네이터(Coordinator)라는 새로운 컴포넌트를 제안하고 이를 기반으로 긴급메시지에 대한 전송지연 개선 및 플러그 앤 플레이 기능을 가능케하는 새로운 CAN 프레임워크를 제안한다.

Sweetpotato whitefly, Bemisia tabaci, is a vector of more than 100 plant-diseased viruses, as well as a serious pest of various horticultural plants. This species harbors a primary endosymbiont Portiera along with several secondary endosymbionts such as Cardinium and Hamiltonella. We investigated whether or not TYLCV acquisition alters the densities of endosymbionts in the body of B. tabaci using quantitative real-time PCR. Our results showed that the densities of both Cardinium and Hamiltonella, but not Portiera, increased upon acquisition of TYLCV. In addition, expression of GroEL, a molecular chaperone produced by Hamiltonella, was significantly upregulated in TYLCV-infected whiteflies. Our results suggest that endosymbionts may play an important role in TYLCV transmission mechanism within the body of B. tabaci.

Self-powered sensors play an important role in everyday life, and they cover a wide range of topics. These sensors are meant to measure the amount of relevant motion and transform the biomechanical activities into electrical signals using triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) since they are sensitive to external stimuli such as pressure, temperature, wetness, and motion. The present advancement of TENGs-based self-powered wearable, implantable, and patchable sensors for healthcare monitoring, human body motion, and medication delivery systems was carefully emphasized in this study. The use of TENG technology to generate electrical energy in real-time using self-powered sensors has been the topic of considerable research among various leading scholars. TENGs have been used in a variety of applications, including biomedical and healthcare physical sensors, wearable devices, biomedical, human-machine interface, chemical and environmental monitoring, smart traffic, smart cities, robotics, and fiber and fabric sensors, among others, as efficient mechanical-to-electric energy conversion technologies. In this evaluation, the progress accomplished by TENG in several areas is extensively reviewed. There will be a discussion on the future of self-powered sensors.
