In this paper, we consider the simple redundant structures with the function of hardware based active/standby control. The system includes two switch modules. The switch module is connected to a data bus, but only the active switch module has control of the data bus. The standby unit takes over the function of the active unit when the active unit failure or mode command are asserted. And this paper illustrate the high-speed router system and the overall redundant system architecture. The proposed redundant architecture for 80G Router system is verified and implemented with experiment.

A segmented scissors type switch has been developed for the urban transit maglev demonstration line to be commercialized near Incheon International Airport in 2013. Based on the design of the previous segmented 3-way switch, the scissors switch is composed of four segmented 2-way switches up/down and left/right and a turn table in the mid point. The main function of the scissors switch is to change the running direction of the train at end terminals. The developed scissors switch is planned to be installed in front of the 102 station, which has a side platform, of the demonstration line. The total length of the switch is 65m and the distance between the up and down track centerlines is 6m. The 2-way switches and turn table are made of steel box type beams, and have their own driving unit, locking unit, control unit, levitation and propulsion rails, and so on. Installed in the factory, a 100,000-cycle continuous operation test was carried out after manual and automatic test operations. The applicapability of the developed switch was verified through the measurements of the linearity of the track after repetitive operations, the mechanical operation noise, the load of the main driving motor, the safety of the control panel, the natural frequency of the girder, the deformation of the girder, and so on.

This paper presents Power Control and Distribution Unit development of GEO satellite with 3kW power output. The sensing error of bus voltage produce control signal of the shunt switch assembly and battery power converter, and the tolerance of error signals generated decide the stability of proposed system. The dynamic characteristics of main bus according to the load changing and the control logic of FPGA are simulated. In order to verify the proposed design, the simulation and experimental results for solar array shunt switch, battery power converter and bus controller are shown.

This paper proposes a model-based optimal control algorithm for the clamp switch of a zero-voltage switching (ZVS) bidirectional DC-DC converter. The bidirectional DC-DC converter (BDC) can accomplish the ZVS operation using the clamp switch. The minimum current for the ZVS operation is maintained, and the inductor current is separated from the input and output voltages by the clamp switch in this topology. The clamp switch can decrease the inductor current ripple, switching loss, and conduction loss of the system. Therefore, the optimal control of the clamp switch is significant to improve the efficiency of the system. This paper proposes a model-based optimal control algorithm using phase shift in a micro-controller unit. The proposed control algorithm is demonstrated by the results of PSIM simulations and an experiment conducted in a 1-kW ZVS BDC system.

A complex network and a parallel computer are made up of interconnected switching units. The role of a switching unit is to set up a connection between an input port and an output port, according to the routing information. We proposed our switching network with a remodeled architecture is a newly modified Banyan network with eight input and output ports. We have analysed the maximum throughput of the revised switch. Our analyses have shown that under the uniform random traffic load, the FIFO discipline is limited to 70%, The switching system consists of an input control unit, a switch unit and an output control unit. Therefore the result of the analyses shows that the results of the networking simulation with the new switch are feasible and if we adopt the new architecture of the revised model of the Banyan switch, the hardware complexity can be reduced. The FIFO discipline has increased by about 11% when we compare the switching system with the input buffer system. We have designed and verified the switching system in VHDL using Max＋plusII. We also designed our test environment including micro computers, the base station, and the proposed architecture. We proposed a new architecture of the Banyan switch for BISDN networks and parallel computers.

This paper presents general concept of DC switch gear(DCSWGR). Normally, DCSWGR consist of Digital protection unit(DPU), High Speed Circuit Breaker(HSCB), Disconnect Switch (DS), Programmable Logic Control(PLC), Auxiliary Relays and etc. Most of the components has its special characteristics and their interface between each others are various and complex. In this paper every constituent general design are preceded and interface between each component are examined. And also DCSWGR operation logic with logical diagram including interlock signal are introduced.

Most of access control systems for underground utility tunnel work through wired network between central system and the automatic switch control unit. However, there are several issues regarding the absence of network infrastructure and an outdoor reader in a relatively unique environment. To solve these issues we propose an authenticated key based smart phone control system for secure access to the underground utility tunnel and this scheme is anticipated providing us with crucial information about a systemic entrance history and effective management procedures of utility tunnel. In addition, the proposed scheme enables to access to secured control system in smart phone based bluetooth network and it provides information about systemic control and history management for the switch controls through smart phone applications.

This paper presents a new switch-control approach for multiphase interleaved converters. Development of the proposed technique is based on control-signal generation for multi-unit synchronization. Current sharing among the switching cells and voltage regulation are achieved by means of a multi-loop control scheme regardless of changes in input voltage and load. System stability is ensured by single-pole compensation. This proposed technique is straightforward, reliable and inexpensive, and can be applied to any higher number of cells without difficulty.

This research presents the design and analysis of PCDU(Power Control & Distribution Unit) of communication satellite. The PCDU of a spacecraft must provide adequate power to each subsystem and payload during mission life, and it also needs high reliability and performance in space environment. A control circuit of the PCDU include bus sensing and filter circuits, error signal amplification circuit, error compensation circuit of SAS(Shunt Assembly Switch) and BPC(Battery Power Converter). The phase margin and DC gain for the designed circuits are analyzed through the frequency response characteristics of the compensated control circuit. And also the transfer function of the battery power converter circuit are discussed at the battery CCCM(Charge Continuous Conduction Mode) and battery C/DCCM(Continuous/Discontinuous Conduction Mode).

We have developed the testing software for KEPCO operators to maintain the small-scale distribution automation system effectively. The testing software is used to monitor the present status, to measure the analog value(voltage, amperage) and to control the switch and FRTU(Feeder Remote Terminal Unit) in order to find out a disabled part of the system. And at the stage of inspection of the switch and FRTU, it can screen the inferior one.
