본 논문에서는 초고주파 회로에 사용되는 GaAs FET의 대신호 모델 추출기 개발에 관하여 다루었다. 모델링을 하기에 앞서 모델링에 필요한 대량의 측정 데이터를 얻기 위하여 컴퓨터에서 자동제어가 가능한 측정프로그램을 개발하였고 측정계에서 생기는 전압강하를 막기 위해 전압 강하 보상을 위한 알고리즘을 측정프로그램에 추가하였다. 소신호 모델은 대신호 모델의 복잡도를 고려하여 7개의 내부 파라미터를 갖는 소신호 모델을 사용하였으며 각 바이어스에서의 측정된 산란계수를 소신호 모델이 예측한 산란계수 결과와 비교하여 소신호 모델의 바이어스에 따른 정확성을 검증하였다. 대신호 모델은 다양한 비선형 시뮬레이션에 유리하도록 변형된 맞춤함수 모델을 사용하였고 대신호 모델 파라미터 추출 과정에서는 일차원적 최적화 기법을 통하여 최적화된 파라미터를 추출하였다. 이러한 연구는 비선형 히로 설계 시 필요한 대신호 모델의 추출시간과 측정시간을 단축시킬 수 있고 빠른 시뮬레이션 특성으로 인해 초고주파회로로 설계용 시뮬레이터에서의 최적화과정 수행에 적합한 모델을 얻을 수 있다.

This paper describes on RF circuit simulation technique, especially on a RF modeling and a model extraction of a LDMOS(Lateral Diffused MOS) that has gate-width (Wg) dependence. Small-signal model parameters of the LDMOSs with various gate-widths extracted from S-parameter data are applied to make the relation between the RF performances and gate-width. It is proved that a source inductance (Ls) was not applicable to scaling rules. These extracted small-signal model parameters are also utilized to remove extrinsic elements in an extraction of a large-signal model (using HP Root MOSFET Model). Therefore, we can omit an additional measurement to extract extrinsic elements. When the large-signal model with Ls having the above gate-width dependence is applied to a high-power LDMOS module, the simulated performances (Output power, etc.) are in a good agreement with experimental results. It is proved that our extracted model and RF circuit simulation have a good accuracy.

Modified Materka-Kacprzak 대신호 MODFET(modulation-doped field-effect transistor) model을 사용하여 GaN(gallium nitride) MODFET 대신호 모델링을 수행하였다. Dambrine(3)이 제안한 방법에 따라 45㎒에서 40㎒의 주파수 범위에 걸쳐 S-parameter 및 DC특성을 측정하였으며, 측정결과를 토대로 cold FET 방법［4］에 의해 측정된 기생성분들을 de-embedding 함으로써 소신호 파라미터를 추출하였고, 추출된 소신호 파라미터는 함수를 사용하여 측정결과를 재현하는 맞춤함수 모델의 일종인 modified Materka 모델을 사용하여 모델링하였다. 수행된 대신호 모델링을 검증하기 위하여 모델링된 GaN MODFET의 DC 및 S-파라미터, 전력특성을 측정값과 각각 비교해 보았을 때 비교적 일치하고 있음을 보여서 GaN 대신호 모델링을 검증하였으며, modified Materka 모델이 GaN MODFET 대신호 모델링에 유용하게 사용될 수 있음을 보였다.

A new small-signal model for the controlled on-time boost Power factor correction (PFC) circuit is Presented. The proposed small-signal model is valid up to high frequencies ever 1kHz. IF to remove the low-frequency ripple from the output a 120Hz notch filter is used the proposed model can be used for the control design of the PFC circuit to improve the dynamics of the output voltage. The accuracy of the model is confirmed by comparing the experimental results with the simulational result.

A new small signal modeling of an average current mode control is proposed. In order to analyze the characteristics of the control scheme, the discrete and continuous time small signal models are derived. The derivation are mainly come from the analysis of the sampling effect presented in the current control loop. By the mathematical interpretation of practical sampler representing the sampling effect of a current control loop, the small signal models of an average current mode control can be easily derived. The instability of the current control loop, which gives rise to the subharmonic oscillation, can be identified by the proposed models. To show the usefulness of the proposed models, the simulation and experiment are carried out. The results show that the predicted results by the proposed model are much better agreed with the measured ones than that of the conventional model, even though the high gain of the compensation network of a current control loop is employed.

Phase-locked loops (PLL) based on the synchronous reference frame (SRF-PLL) have recently become the most widely-used for grid synchronization in three phase grid-connected inverters. However, it is difficult to study their performance since they are nonlinear systems. To estimate the performances of a SRF-PLL, a canonical small-signal linearized model has been developed in this paper. Based on the proposed model, several significant specifications of a SRF-PLL, such as the capture time, capture rang, bandwidth, the product of capture time and bandwidth, and steady-state error have been investigated. Finally, a noise model of a SRF-PLL has been put forward to analyze the noise rejection ability by computing the SNR (signal-to-noise ratio) of a SRF-PLL. Several simulation and experimental results have been provided to verify and validate the obtained conclusions. Although the proposed model and analysis method are based on a SRF-PLL, they are also suitable for analyzing other types of PLLs.

This study proposes a small-signal model and control design for a two-stage DC-DC-AC converter to investigate its dynamic characteristics in relation to battery energy storage system. When the circuit analysis of the two-stage DC-DC-AC converter is attempted simultaneously, the mathematical procedure of deriving the dynamic equation is complex and difficult. The main idea of modeling the two-stage DC-DC-AC converter states that this topology is separated into a bidirectional DC-DC converter and a single-phase inverter with an equivalent current source corresponding to that of the inverter or converter. The dynamic equations for the separated converter and inverter are then derived using the state-space averaging technique. The procedures of building the small-signal model of the two-stage DC-DC-AC converter are described in detail. Based on the derived small-signal model, the individual controllers are designed through a frequency-domain analysis. The simulation and experimental results verify the validity of the proposed modeling approach and controller design.

In DC distribution systems, a TAB converter employing multiple transformers is one of the most widely used topologies due to its high power density, modularizability, and cost-effectiveness. However, the conventional control technique for a grid-connected mode in the TAB converter cannot maintain its reliability for an islanding mode under a blackout situation. In this paper, the islanding mode control technique is proposed to solve this issue. To verify the relative stability and dynamic characteristics of the control technique, small-signal models of both the grid connected and the islanding mode are derived. Based on the small-signal models, PI controllers are designed to provide suitable power control. The proposed control technique, the accuracy of small-signal models, and the performance of the controllers are verified by simulations and experiments with a 1-kW prototype TAB converter.

The high-switching-frequency operation of power converters can achieve high power density through size reduction of passive components, such as capacitors, inductors, and transformers. However, a small-output capacitor that has small capacitance and low effective series resistance changes the small-signal model of the converter power stage. Such a capacitor can make the converter unstable by increasing the crossover frequency in the transfer function of the small-signal model. In this paper, the design and implementation of a high-frequency LLC resonant converter are presented to verify the power density enhancement achieved by decreasing the size of passive components. The effect of small output capacitance is analyzed for stability by using a proper small-signal model of the LLC resonant converter. Finally, proper design methods of a feedback compensator are proposed to obtain a sufficient phase margin in the Bode plot of the loop gain of the converter for stable operation at 500 kHz switching frequency. A theoretical approach using MATLAB, a simulation approach using PSIM, and experimental results are presented to show the validity of the proposed analysis and design methods with 100 and 500 kHz prototype converters.

본 연구에서는 GEC-Marconi 사의 H40 GaAs pHEMT 소자에 대해서 새롭게 수정한 Curtice 모델을 사용하여 대신호 통합모델을 구축하였다. 통합모델에는 DC 특성과 biss에 따른 소신호 및 잡음 특성이 모두 포함되어 있으며, 특히 수정되 Curtice 모델을 사용함으로써 gate-source 간의 전압이 증가함에 따라 나타나는 pHEMT 의 transconductance(이하 $g_{m}$) 특성을 매우 간단하면서도 물리적으로 설명할 수 있게 하였다. 또한 통합모델 내부에는 RF-choke를 사용함으로써 $g_{m}$, $R_{ds}$ 성분의 DC 상태와 AC 상태에서의 차이를 설명하게 하였다. 통합모델을 HP사의 simulation tool 인 MDS(Microwave Design System)의 SDD(Symbolically Defined Device)를 이용하여 구현한 후, 실제의 data와 비교한 결과 DC, small signal, 그리고 noise 에 대한 특성에 H40 pHEMT 와 대부분 일치함을 보았으며, 선형과 다양한 harmonic balance simulation 의 수렴성 및 정확성을 확인함으로써 본 모델을 이용한 경우 저잡음 증폭기, 발진기, 그리고 혼합기 등의 여러 부품설계를 할 수 있음을 보였다.
