본 논문에서는 DCS 1800 시스템에서 수신단의 성능을 개선시킬 수 있는 새로운 연판정 출력 등화 기법과 등화기 구조를 제안한다. 먼저 최적 연판정 출력 알고리듬(OSA : Optimum Soft-output Algorithm)의 계산량을 크게 줄이면서도 준최적의 성능을 유지하는 간략화된 최대 사후 확률 검파 기법을 제안한다. 그리고 부정확한 채널 추정값을 보정 할 수 있는 채널 추정 방식을 사용하고, 적응 채널추정 기법과 효율적으로 결합시킬 수 있는 새로운 등화기 구조를 노말 버스트의 특징을 이용하여 설계한다. 성능의 실험은 JTC 채널 모델을 이용하여 이루어졌으며, 본 논문에서 제안한 간략화된 최대 사후 확률 검파 연판정 출력 등화 알고리듬은 적은 계산량에도 불구하고, 기존의 최적 OSA의 비슷한 성능을 유지한다. 또한, 경판정 출력 비터비 등화 알고리듬에 비해서는 3~7dB의 성능 이득을 가지며, 간략화된 연판정 출력 비터비 등화 기법에 비해서는 0.5~3dB까지의 성능 이득을 나타낸다. 또한 채널의 변화 속도가 빠른 경우, 제안된 양방향 등화 구조는 기존의 순방향만을 이용하는 등화 구조에 비하여 커다란 성능 이득을 가진다. 즉, 기존의 순방향만을 이 淪求\ulcorner등화 구조를 사용한 등화기는 오차 성능의 정체 현상을 나타내지만, 양방향 등화 구조를 사용한 등화기는 오차 성능의 정체 현상을 보이지 않음을 확인할 수 있다.

We introduce a noise-predictive turbo equalization using noise filter in perpendicular magnetic recording(PMR) channel. The noise filter mitigates the colored noise in high-density PMR channel. In this paper, the channel detectors used are SOVA (Soft Output Viterbi Algorithm) and BCJR algorithm which proposed by Bahl et al., and the outer decoder used is LDPC (Low Density Parity Check) code that is implemented by sum-product algorithm. Two kinds of LDPC codes are experimented. One is the 0.5Kbyte (4336,4096) LDPC code with the code rate of 0.94, and the other is 1Kbyte (8432,8192) LDPC code with the code rate of 0.97.

This paper presents a step-down DC-DC converter with On-chip Compensation for battery-operated portable electronic devices which are designed in O.13um CMOS standard process. In an effort to decrease system volume, this paper proposes the on chip compensation circuit using capacitor multiplier method. Capacitor multiplier method can minimize error amplifier's compensation capacitor size by 10%. It allows the compensation block of DC-DC converter be easily integrated on a chip and occupy less layout area. But capacitor multiplier operation reduces DC-DC converter efficiency. As a result, this converter shows maximum efficiency over 87.2% for the output voltage of 1.2V (input voltage : 3.3V), maximum load current 500mA, and 25mA output ripple current. This voltage mode controled buck converter has 1MHz switching frequency.

This paper is given a full detail of mathematical analyses of input current and output voltage for a novel active type power factor correction (PFC) converter. These are compared with harmonics components of input current for a conventional PFC converter. The proposed PFC converter is constructed in using a new loss-less snubber circuit to achieve a soft switching of control device. Also the proposed converter for discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) eliminates the complicated circuit control requirement and reduces the size of components. The input current waveform in the proposed converter is got to be a sinusoidal form of discontinuous pulse in proportion to magnitude of ac input voltage under the constant duty cycle switching. Therefore, input power factor is nearly unity and the control method is simple. Particularly, the stored energy of loss-less snubber capacitor is recovered with input side and increases input current from resonant operation. The result is that input power factor of the proposed converter is higher than that of conventional PFC converter. Some simulative results on computer and experimental results are included to confirm the validity of the analytical results.

The wireless power transfer (WPT) charging system for AGV depends highly on the coupling conditions due to air gap variation. To attain stable output power with high transfer efficiency under various coupling conditions, a single-stage, DC-DC converter that operates with robustness to changes in air gaps is proposed for the WPT system. The proposed converter is capable of soft switching under the set input voltage (V_in: 380 V_DC), load conditions (0-1 kW), and air gap changes (30-70 mm). In addition, a wide output voltage range (Vo: 39-54 V_DC) can be controlled by varying the link voltage due to the phase control at a fixed switching frequency. Experimental results are verified using a prototype of a 1 kW wireless power charging system.

To increase the output voltage range with satisfying soft switching condition, switching frequency, duty and number of times of the resonance are controlled. The proposed converter and its control method are verified by theoretical analysis and PSIM simulation.

The SMZ half-bridge converter uses the resonance between the inductance of transformer and the resonant capacitances to transfer the input power to the load. In addition to this kind of characteristic of the converter, there are some features such as the capability of soft switching operation, a lower switching loss, and a higher power density in the converter. However in the low-voltage and high-output current applications of the converter, the extremely increased output ripple voltage prevents the converter from normal operation. In order to overcome the drawback of the converter, adding the output filter inductor to the converter, the converter shows the completely different resonant characteristics. In this paper, We analyzed the resonant characteristics of the SMZ converter with the output filter inductor and investigated what the analyzed results affect the converter operation. The experiment of a I50W prototype SMZ converter with 5V output and 310V input is carried out to verity the validity of the analyzed results.

In this paper, a constant frequency phase shifting PWM-controlled voltage source full bridge-type series load resonant high-frequency inverter using the $4^{th}$ generation IGBT power modules is presented for innovative consumer electromagnetic induction heating applications, such as a hot water producer, steamer and super heated steamer. The bridge arm side link passive capacitive snubbers in parallel with each power semiconductor device and AC load side linked active edge inductive snubber-assisted series load resonant tank soft switching inverter with a constant frequency phase shifted PWM control scheme is evaluated and discussed on the basis of the simulation and experimental results. It is proved from a practical point of view that the series load resonant and edge resonant hybrid high-frequency inverter topology, what is called, DE class type, including the variable-power variable-frequency regulation function can expand zero voltage soft switching commutation area even under low output power setting ranges, which is more suitable and acceptable for newly developed induction heated dual pack fluid heaters. Furthermore, even the lower output power regulation mode of this high-frequency load resonant tank inverter circuit is verified so that this inverter can achieve ZVS with the aid of the single auxiliary inductor snubber.
