무선급전 시스템에서 대기 모드 시에도 전력을 소모하는 비중이 큰 수신부 통신 모듈을 OFF 시켜서 대기전력을 낮출 수 있다. 이때 대기모드 시 PFC 동작을 OFF 시키게 되면 추가로 대기전력을 더 낮출 수 있지만 PFC가 OFF된 상태에서는 AC 입력전압 크기에 따라 인버터 입력 전압 범위가 크게 변동하게 된다. 하지만 수신 통신 모듈 OFF시에는 무선통신을 통한 출력전압제어를 할 수 없기 때문에 안정적인 전력전달이 힘들다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 대기모드 시 출력전압을 일정 수준으로 제어하기 위해, 입력전압 크기에 따른 Feed-forward 구조를 통하여 동작 주파수를 가변 하는 무선전력전송 시스템을 구현하고자 한다.

PCs and its peripherals uses more power in standby mode even if they are not actually being used. In particular, PCs and its peripherals used in school and office, plugged in at all times during working hours, but not used much time, even if turned off consume a portion of the power. In this paper, we developed Networked Smart Plug for Power Management of PC & Peripherals which is consist of EMS, Smart Plug, PC Agent and Smart Phone App. for power saving of PC and a variety of peripheral devices in office or home, and evaluated the performance of the system.

In this paper, we propose a context-aware power management (CPM) scheme using beacons to reduce the power consumption of personal computers (PCs). In the proposed CPM scheme, the PC, smartphone, control server, and Internet of Things (IoT) device are necessary. PC users first log in the control server using their smartphones and select PCs to turn on. Then, the selected PCs automatically go into three different modes, i.e., sleep, shutdown, and standby power off modes, in order when the PC users leave the PCs without turning off them. Further, we develop a testbed with the proposed CPM scheme using the Arduino with Bluetooth low energy (BLE) and relay modules. Finally, it is shown that the proposed CPM scheme outperforms the conventional scheme in terms of the power consumption.

In this paper, we suggest those two design plans for power supply method of Hot Standby Sparing System; one is the plan using MTBF based on Constant Failure Rate, and the plan using Reliability Function is the other. Traditionally, RBD (Reliability Block Diagram) is used for reliability prediction which is required to meet any requirements before system operation. However, the system that has redundancy, such as Hot Standby Sparing System, Is not suitable for system reliability modeling using combination model, such as RBD. In this paper, therefore, we demonstrate that for redundancy controller, redundancy modeling design toward fault occurrence design is more effective to build up a system with higher reliability and achieve the effectiveness of loss cost due to maintenance and failure occurred in operation, rather than combinational modeling design.

Primary-side regulation (PSR) scheme is widely applied in low power applications, such as cell phone chargers, network adapters, and LED drivers. However, the efficiency and standby power requirements have been improved to a high standard due to the new trends of DOE (Department Of Energy) Level VI and COC (Code Of Conduct specifications) V5. The major drawbacks of PSR include poor regulation due to inaccurate feedback and difficulty in acquiring acceptable regulation. A novel adaptive blanking strategy for constant current and constant voltage regulation is proposed in this paper. An accurate model for the sample blanking time related to transformer leakage inductance and the metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) parasitic capacitance is established. The proposed strategy can achieve accurate detection for ultra-low standby power. In addition, numerous control factors are analyzed in detail to eliminate the influence of leakage inductance on the loop stability. A dedicated controller integrated circuit (IC) with a power MOSFET is fabricated to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy. Experimental results demonstrated that the prototype based on the proposed IC has excellent performance.

Due to the demand of the cold neutron flux in the neutron science and beam utilization technology, the cold neutron source (CNS) has been constructed and operating in the nuclear research reactor all over the world. The majority of the heat load removal scheme in the CNS is two-phase thermosiphon using the liquid hydrogen as a moderator. The CNS moderates thermal neutrons through a cryogenic moderator, liquid hydrogen, into cold neutrons with the generation of the nuclear heat load. The liquid hydrogen in a moderator cell is evaporated for the removal of the generated heat load from the neutron moderation and flows upward into a heat exchanger, where the hydrogen gas is liquefied by the cryogenic helium gas supplied from a helium refrigeration system. The liquefied hydrogen flows down to the moderator cell. To keep the required liquid hydrogen stable in the moderator cell, the CNS consists of an in-pool assembly (IPA) connected with the hydrogen system to handle the required hydrogen gas, the vacuum system to create the thermal insulation, and the helium refrigeration system to provide the cooling capacity. If one of systems is running out of order, the operating research reactor shall be tripped because the integrity of the CNS-IPA is not secured under the full power operation of the reactor. To prevent unscheduled reactor shutdown during a long time because the research reactor has been operating with the multi-purposes, the introduction of the standby cooling system (STS) can be a solution. In this presentation, the design considerations are considered how to design the STS satisfied with the following objectives: (a) to keep the moderator cell less than 350 K during the full power operation of the reactor under loss of the vacuum, loss of the cooling power, loss of common electrical power, or loss of instrument air cases; (b) to circulate smoothly helium gas in the STS circulation loop; (c) to re-start-up the reactor within 1 hour after its trip to avoid the Xenon build-up because more than certain concentration of Xenon makes that the reactor cannot start-up again; (d) to minimize the possibility of the hydrogen-oxygen reaction in the hydrogen boundary.

본 논문에서는 전기전자 기기가 외부전원에 연결된 상태에서 그 주 기능을 수행하지 않거나 내부 혹은 외부로 부터 주 기능 수행을 위한 명령을 기다리고 있는 상태에서 소모하는 대기전력(Standby Power)을 저감할 수 있는 장치를 개발하고자 하였다. 기존의 멀티탭 형대기전력 차단장치는 그 장치 자체의 소비전력이 커서 사용 의미를 퇴색시키는 문제점을 안고 있다. 본 논문에서는 기존 제품의 이러한 문제점을 보완시키고 대기전력을 획기적으로 감시킬 수 있는 멀티탭 형식의 외장형 대기전력 차단장치와 가전기기 내장형 차단장치의 회로를 설계 및 구현하고 비교 실험을 통하여 그 우수성을 확인하였다.

Recently, the junctionless (JL) transistors realized by a single-type doping process have attracted attention instead of the conventional metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFET). The JL transistor can overcome MOSFET's problems such as the thermal budget and short-channel effect. Thus, the JL transistor is considered as great alternative device for a next generation low standby power silicon system. In this paper, the JL FinFET was simulated with a three dimensional (3D) technology computer-aided design (TCAD) simulator and optimized for DC characteristics according to device dimension and doping concentration. The design variables were the fin width ($W_{fin}$), fin height ($H_{fin}$), and doping concentration ($D_{ch}$). After the optimization of DC characteristics, RF characteristics of JL FinFET were also extracted.
