In this paper, authors propose a novel step-up AC-DC chopper operated with power factor correction (PFC) and with high efficiency. The proposed chopper behaves with discontinuous current control (DCC) of input current. The input current waveform in the proposed chopper is got to be a discontinuous sinusoid form in proportion to magnitude of ac input voltage under the constant duty cycle switching. Therefore, the input power factor is nearly unity and the control method is simple. In the general DCC chopper, the switching devices are turned-on with the zero current switching, but turn-off of the switching devices is switched at current maximum value. To achieve a soft switching of the switching turn-off, the proposed chopper is used a new partial resonant circuit. The result is that the switching loss is very low and the efficiency of chopper is high.

The design feasibility of a micro unidirectional DC transmission system based on an input-parallel output-parallel (IPOP) converter is analyzed in this paper. The system consists of two subsystems: an input-parallel output-series (IPOS) subsystem to step up the DC link voltage, and an input-series output-parallel (ISOP) subsystem to step down the output voltage. The two systems are connected through a transmission line. The challenge of the delay caused by the communication in the control system is addressed by introducing a ring communication structure, and its influence on the control system is analyzed to ensure the feasibility and required performance of the converter system under practical circumstances. Simulation and experiment results are presented to verify the effectiveness of the proposed design.

A model predictive control method is applied to design an automatic controller for thermal power control in a reactor core. The basic concept of the model predictive control is to solve an optimization problem for a finite future at current time and to implement as the current control input only the first optimal control input among the solutions of the finite time steps. At the next time step, the second optimal control input is not implemented and the procedure to solve the optimization problem is then repeated. The objectives of the proposed model predictive controller are to minimize the difference between the output and the desired output and the variation of the control rod position. The nonlinear PWR plant model (a nonlinear point kinetics equation with six delayed neutron groups and the lumped thermal-hydraulic balance equations) is used to verify the proposed controller of reactor power. And a controller design model used for designing the model predictive controller is obtained by applying a parameter estimation algorithm at an initial stage. From results of numerical simulation to check the controllability of the proposed controller at the $5\%/min$ ramp increase or decrease of a desired load and its $10\%$ step increase or decrease which are design requirements, the performances of this controller are proved to be excellent.

Multi-input multi-output (MIMO) dynamic matrix control (DMC) technique is applied to control steam temperatures in a large-scale ultrasupercritical once-through boiler-turbine system. Specifically, four output variables (i.e., outlet temperatures of platen superheater, finish superheater, primary reheater, and finish reheater) are controlled using four input variables (i.e., two spray valves, bypass valve, and damper). The step-response matrix for the MIMO DMC is constructed using the four input and the four output variables. Online optimization is performed for the MIMO DMC using the model predictive control technique. The MIMO DMC controller is implemented in a full-scope power plant simulator with satisfactory performance.

The method of the reduction of the automotive induction noise can be classified by the method of passive control and the method of active control. However, the passive control method has a demerit to reduce the effect of noise reduction at low frequency (below 500Hz) range and to be limited by a space of the engine room. Whereas, the active control method can overcome the demerit of passive control method. The algorithm of active control is mostly used the LMS (Least-Mean-Square) algorithm because the LMS algorithm can easily obtain the complex transfer function in real-time. Especially, When the Filtered-X LMS (FXLMS) algorithm is applied to an ANC system. However, the convergence performance of LMS algorithm goes bad when the FXLMS algorithm is applied to an active control of the induction noise under rapidly accelerated driving conditions. Thus Normalized FXLMS algorithm was developed to improve the control performance under the rapid acceleration. The advantage of Normalized FXLMS algorithm is that the step size is no longer constant. Instead, it varies with time. But there is one additional practical difficulty that can arise when a nonstationary input is used. If the input is zero for consecutive samples, then the step size becomes unbounded. So, in order to solve this problem. the Correlation FXLMS algorithm was developed. The Correlation FXLMS algorithm is realized by using an estimate of the cross correlation between the adaptation error and the filtered input signal to control the step size. In this paper, the performance of the Correlation FXLMS Is presented in comparison with that of the other FXLMS algorithms based on computer simulations.

본 논문은 상위 레벨 합성 과정에서 DSP와 같은 회로를 대상으로 전력소모를 최소로 하는 스케줄링 및 자원할당 알고리즘을 제안한다. 본 논문에서는 스케줄링 시의 저 전력 설계는 리스트 스케줄링 방법을 이용한다. 그리고 자원공유를 통하여 자원할당 시 입력을 재 사용할 수 있는 가능성을 증가시킨다. 스케줄링 후 자원할당 방법은 두 입력 사이의 평균 해밍 거리와 교환동작을 계산한 결과값을 고려하여 전력 함수를 이용한다. 먼저 두 연산자 사이의 평균 해밍 거리를 계산한 후 입력 값에 대한 교환동작을 구하며, 입력 값의 비트 패턴을 이용하여 전력 값을 구한다. 자원 할당 과정은 제어 단계를 한 단계 씩 증가시키면서 각 제어 단계에서 할당 될 수 있는 모든 경우들에 대하여 평균 해밍 거리가 가장 적고 전력 함수에 의한 전력이 가장 적게 소비되는 연산자를 할당한다. 기존 방법과 비교했을 때 그 수행속도는 사용하는 연산자의 개수와 최다 제어 단계에 따라서 빨라진다. 그리고 소모하는 전력이 6%에서 8%까지 감소효과가 있었다.

This paper proposes a new power flow control method for soft-switched, four channel, five level resonant buck dc-dc converters. These converters have two input channels, which can be supplied from sources with identical or different voltages, and four output channels with arbitrary output voltages. They are specially designed to supply multilevel inverters. The design methodology for their power flow control has been developed considering a general case when the input voltages, output voltages and loads can be asymmetrical. A special emphasize is paid to the limitations and restrictions of operation. The theoretical studies are confirmed by numerical simulations and laboratory tests carried out at various operation points. Exploiting the advantages of the newly proposed power control strategy, the converter can supply five level inverters in dc microgrids, active filters, power factor correctors and electric drives. They can also play an interfacing role in renewable energy systems.

An essential ingredient in precision machining is a positioning system that responds quickly and precisely to very small input signal. In this paper, two different positioning systems were presented fot the precision positioning control. The one is a friction drive system, the other is a ballscrew system. The friction drive system was composed of an air sliding guide and a friction drive. The ballscrew system was made of a ballscrew and a linear guide. Nonlinear behaviors of the given systems tend to make the system inaccurate. The paper looked at the phenomena that has caused the positioning error. These apparently nonlinear phenomena can be attributed mainly to the presence of the nonlinear friction and slip effect plus the dynamic change from the microdynamic to the macrodynamic and form the macrodynamic to the microdynamic. For the control of the positioning system, the control algorithm based on a neural network is suggested. The FEL(Feedback Error Learning) controller can learn the inverse dynamics of a nonlinear system by using the neural network controller, and stabilize the system by a linear controller. In the experiment, PTP control is implemented withen the maximum error of 0.05 .mu.m ~0.1 .mu. m when i .mu.m step reference input is applied and that of maximum 1 .mu. m when 100 .mu.m step reference input is given. Sinusoidal inputs with the amplitude of 1 .mu.m and 100 .mu. m are used for the tracking control of the positioning system. Experimental results of the proposed algorithm are shown to be superior to those of conventional PD controls.

A new high-power step-up based on the two-module parallel-input (PISO) modular dual inductor-fed push-pull converter is proposed. The proposed converter is operated at a constant duty cycle and employs and auxiliary circuit to control the output voltage with a phase-shift between two modules. It shows a high efficiency due to the greatly reduced switch turn-off stress. It also shows a high and linear voltage conversion ratio, low current stress in the output capacitor, and fast control-to-output dynamics. The operation principles and the mathematical models of the proposed converter are presented. Features of the proposed converter are discussed in comparison with the two-module PISO modular dual inductor-fed push-pull converter. Also, experimental results from a 50kHz, 800W, 350 Vdc prototype with an input voltage range of 20-32 Vdc are provided to confirm the validity of the proposed converter. The new converter compares favorably with the conventional counterpart, and is considered well siuted to high-power step-up applications.
