For a InGaAsP buried - heterostructrue $1.3\mu\textrm{m}$ LD with fabry-perot cavity structure, the procedures of ultra-short optical pulse genration ar eanalyzed by simulating the rate equations. Investigting the effects of injected current pulse parameters such as bias $J_b$, pulse width $T_d$ and pulse amplitude $J_p$ on the generated optical pulses, we derive the optimum conditions to obtain a single optical pulse with strong peak value. We also observe that the repetition rate of current pulses needs to be restricted under a certain threshold to generate a train of single optical pulses, and that the period doubling phenomenon takes place by increasing the repitition rate.

In a switched reluctance motor drive, it is important to synchronize the stator phase excitation with the rotor position; therefore, the position of rotor is an essential information. Although optical encoders or resolvers are used to provide the position information, these sensors are expensive. Moreover, in the high-speed region, switching angles are fluctuated back and forth out of the preset value, which is caused by the sampling period of the microprocessor. In this paper, a low cost analog encoder suitable for practical applications is proposed. And the control algorithm to generate switching signals using a simple digital logic is presented. The validity of the proposed analog encoder with a proper logic controller is verified from the experiments.

Track jump control is a random access strategy for short distance movement. The most common track jump scheme is a bang-bang control of a kick and brake manner. In a conventional track jump scheme, a track-following compensator is turned off during kick and brake periods, and restarted at a target track for track pull-in. The inevitable controller switching with non-zero initial condition results in undesirable transient response, and excessive overshoot in the transient response causes track pull-in failure. In this paper, a new track jump scheme is proposed for enhancing track jump stability. Instead of control switching, internal states of a track-following controller are artificially manipulated for kick and brake actions in a digital control environment. Experimental results are provided in comparison with conventional track jumps.

In this paper, we describe the quadruped walking-control algorithm of the complete full-size humanoid DARPA Robotics Challenge-HUBO (DRC-HUBO) robot. Although DRC-HUBO is a biped robot, we require a quadruped walking function using two legs and two arms to overcome uneven terrains in the DRC. We design a wave-type quadruped walking pattern as a feedforward control using several walking parameters, and we design zero moment point (ZMP) controllers to maintain stable walking using an inverted pendulum model and an observed-state feedback control scheme. In particular, we propose a switching algorithm for ZMP controllers using supporting value and weighting factors in order to maintain the ZMP control performance during foot switching. Finally, we verify the proposed algorithm by performing quadruped walking experiments using DRC-HUBO.

This paper presents an efficient method to estimate the maximum SSN (simultaneous switching noise) for ground interconnection networks in CMOS systems using Taylor's series and analyzes the truncation error that has occurred in Taylor's series approximation. We assume that the curve form of noise voltage on ground interconnection networks is linear and derive a polynomial expression to estimate the maximum value of SSN using $\alpha$-power MOS model. The maximum relative error due to the truncation is shown to be under 1.87% through simulations when we approximate the noise expression in the 3rd-order polynomial.

Power semiconductor which is adapted in the rolling stock has a high practicality for capacity of high voltage and high speed switching. but it has a trouble of fever cause of high speed On, Off switching loss and the operating junction temperature is limited to $150^{/circ}C$ because is made from the silicon for the foundation material. Therefore, it is important to find a way out of this trouble and must make the countermeasure. In this research, the caloric value of the integrated PEM is calculated to adapt the optimized heat pipe and the reliability of the heat pipe is demonstrated through the cooling performance test and vibration test.

In this paper, a noble dead time minimization algorithm is presented for developing the outputs of inverters. The adverse effects of the dead time are examined. The principle of the proposed algorithm is explained with the conduction modes of the output currents. The H/W and the S/W construction method of the proposed algorithm are also presented. The validity of the proposed algorithm is verified by comparing simulation and experimental results with those of the conventional methods. It can be concluded from the results that the proposed algorithm have the virtue which is able to ruduce the numbers of inverter switching and the harmonics in the output voltages, and which make the output voltage equal to the reference value.

A self-discharge in multi-EEFLs and CCFLs has been found to provide a high luminance and efficiency. With a fast rising and falling times of $2{mu}s$, and the peak voltage over 1.6KV, the self-discharge occurs in EEFLs and CCFLs driven by a full bridge switching inverter. Particularly in CCFLs connected with a typical value of ballast capacitance, a self-discharge follows by the main discharge when the voltage falls to the ground.

In this paper, an approach to reduce the common-mode voltage and to eliminate narrow pulse for implemented AC-DC matrix converters is presented. An improved space vector modulation (SVM) strategy is developed by replacing the zero space vectors with suitable pairs of active ones. Further, while considering the commutation time, the probability of narrow pulse in the conventional and proposed SVM methods are derived and compared. The advantages of the proposed scheme include: a 50% reduction in the peak value of the common-mode voltage; improved input and output performances; a reduction in the switching loss by a reduced number of switching commutations and a simplified implementation via software. Experimental results are presented to demonstrate the correctness of the theoretical analysis, as well as the feasibility of the proposed strategy.
