와이브로 상향링크의 경우 개방형 전력제어에서는 피드백 없이 전력 할당을 하기 때문에 피드백에 사용될 무선자원을 절약 할 수는 있지만 단말에 정확한 전력 할당을 하기 어렵다. 이에 본 논문은 잡음간섭 값을 현재 무선 환경에 적응하는 방법을 제시하여 순시적으로 변화하는 무선 환경에 적합하게 하고 전력 할당의 상/하향 계단값 결정 방법을 대칭형과 비대칭형으로 제안하여 비교 실험하였다. 컴퓨터를 이용한 실험을 통해서 시스템 파라미터에 따라 상/하향 계단값을 다르게 적용할 때 높은 섹터 처리율과 낮은 오류율 결과를 얻을 수 있다는 것을 알 수 있다.

Moore's law has driven silicon technology scale down aggressively, and it results in significant increase of leakage current on nano-meter scale CMOS. Especially, in mobile devices, leakage current has been one of designers' main concerns, and thus many studies have introduced low power methodologies. However, there are few studies to minimize implementation cost in the mixed use of the methodologies to the best of our knowledge. In this paper, we introduce industrial applications of low power design methodologies for the decrease of leakage current. We focus on the design cost reduction of power gating and reverse body bias when used together. Also, we present voltage scale as an alternative to reverse body bias. To sustain gate leakage current, we discuss the adoption of high-$\kappa$ metal gate, which cuts gate leakage current by a factor of 10 in 32 nm CMOS technology. A 45 nm mobile SoC is shown as the case study of the mixed use of low power methodologies.

The conventional power system allowed only downstream power flow. Therefore, even if a fault occurs, only the forward current flow is considered. However, with the interest in distributed generation (DG), DGs such as Photovoltaic (PV), Wind Turbine (WT) are being connected to a power system. DGs have many advantages, but they also have disadvantage such as generation of reverse flow. Reverse flow can severely disrupt existing protection systems that only consider downstream power flow. The major problems that may arise from reverse power flow are blinding protection and sympathetic tripping. In order to solve such problems, the methods of installing a directional relay or a fault current limiter is proposed. However, this method is inconceivable because of the economics shortage. Therefore, in this paper, a distance relay installed in existing power system is used to solve the protection problem. Modeling of distance relay has been carried out using ElectroMagnetic Transients Program (EMTP), and it has been verified through simulations that the above problems can be solved by a distance relay.

A dynamic model of a power shuttle transmission was developed and its validity was verified using the experimental data obtained from a transmission test bench. A 40㎾, 4WD tractor was also modeled using an application software EASY5 to investigate parameters and their effects on the power shifting performance. For a tractor model, the manual reverse gear was replaced by a power shuttle transmission. The tractor model also included an engine, main-gears for transmission, wheels, differentials and planet gears. Using the tractor model, the effects of the parameters such as modulating pressure and time, engine speed, tractor speed. tractor weight. reverse to forward speed ratio and torsional damper on the transient characteristics at starting and shuttle shifting were investigated by the computer simulation. The transient characteristics were represented by variations in clutch pressure, torque transmitted to input shaft and driving wheels, and power transmission capacity of the clutch. It was found that the modulating pressure and time affected most significantly the torque transmission and shifting time. The input torque, axle torque, power transmission capacity of the clutch and transmission time all increased with increase in engine speed, tractor speed. tractor weight and ratio of reverse to forward speeds. However, the axle torque decreased with tractor speed. Both the axle torque and power transmission capacity of the clutch also decreased with the ratio of reverse to forward speeds.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of reverse transformation on the damping capacity in high manganese austenitic stainless steel. ${\alpha}^{\prime}$-martensite was formed with the specific direction and surface relief by deformation. Over 95% of the austenite phase was transformed to deformation-induced ${\alpha}^{\prime}$-martensite by 70% cold rolling. Reverse transformation became rapid above an annealing temperature of $550^{\circ}C$, but there was no significant transformation above $700^{\circ}C$. In addition, with increasing annealing time at $700^{\circ}C$, reverse transformation was induced rapidly, but the transformation was almost completed at 10 min. Damping capacity was increased up to $700^{\circ}C$, and than unchanged with the increasing annealing temperature. Damping capacity increased steeply with an increasing reverse treatment time up to 10min, whereas there were no significant change with a treatment time of more than 10 min. Damping capacity increased with an increasing the reversed austenite and was strongly affected by reversed austenite.

최근 해수와 담수의 염분농도차를 이용하여 발전하는 역전기투석(reverse electrodialysis, RED)은 잠재량이 크고 지속적 전력생산이 가능한 친환경적이며 미래지향적 신재생에너지로 인식되어 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 이러한 RED 기술의 상용화를 위해서는 최적화된 운전조건을 찾는 것이 중요하며 특히, 스택 내부의 저항을 최소화하는 연구가 절실한 상황이다. 본 연구에서는 RED의 중요한 운전조건인 해수와 담수의 공급유량이 내부저항에 미치는 영향을 조사하고, 해수와 담수의 유량비에 따른 내부저항과 전력밀도의 관계를 고찰하여 최적의 운전조건을 실험적으로 파악하였다. 그 결과 전체유량 80 mL/min에서 최적의 해수/담수 유량비는 1.7이었으며, 이때 전력밀도는 $1.30W/m^2$을 얻을 수 있었다.

이 논문에서 Trench Power MOSFET의 스위칭 성능을 향상시키기 위한 Separate Gate Technique(SGT)을 제안하였다. Trench Power MOSFET의 스위칭 성능을 개선시키기 위해서는 낮은 gate-to-drain 전하 (Miller 전하)가 요구된다. 이를 위하여 제안된 separate gate technique은 얇은(~500A)의 poly-si을 deposition하여 sidewall을 형성함으로서, 기존의 Trench MOSFET에 비해 얇은 gate를 형성하였다. 이 효과로 gate와 drain에 overlap 되는 면적을 줄일 수 있어 gate bottom에 쌓이는 Qgd를 감소시키는 효과를 얻었고, 이에 따른 전기적인 특성을 Silvaco T-CAD silmulation tool을 이용하여 일반적인 Trench MOSFET과 성능을 비교하였다. 그 결과 Ciss(input capacitance : Cgs+Cgd), Coss(output capacitance : Cgd+Cds) 및 Crss(reverse recovery capacitance : Cgd) 모두 개선되었으며, 각각 14.3%, 23%, 30%의 capacitance 감소 효과를 확인하였다. 또한 inverter circuit을 구성하여, Qgd와 capacitance 감소로 인한 24%의 reverse recovery time의 성능향상을 확인하였다. 또한 제안된 소자는 기존 소자와 비교하여 어떠한 전기적 특성저하 없이 공정이 가능하다.

Saturable reactor-resistor pair is proposed as a part of snubber and applied to a hard commutation chopper. SCR turn off process is modeled to simulate the hard commutation chopper. State equations are derived for each mode of the chopper and they are solved by Runge-Kutta 4th order method. It is shown that the reverse voltage spike and reverse dv/dt can be minimized by applying saturable reactor-resistor pair to the chopper which controls peak reverse recovery current and damping factor. Saturable reactor-resistor pair can be used to reduced SCR power loss and value of snubber capacitor and can be applied to high power thyristor devices.

In terms of power loss, a MOSFET has two advantages over an IGBT with an antiparallel diode: purely resistive without an offset voltage in conduction and no tail current at turn-off. However, the reverse recovery characteristic of the body diode is so poor that MOSFETs have not yet been available for high-voltage power converters with bidirectional power flow legs. This paper introduces how MOSFETs can be fully applied to high-voltage power converters with bidirectional power flow legs in order to achieve high efficiency. With a bidirectional DC-DC converter with one leg as the simplest example, the basic circuit topology and operating principle are described in detail. The high efficiency and stable operation of the proposed converter are validated through experiments with a 1.5 kW prototype.
