  • The circuit breaker of power distribution board is essential part for the protection of electrical disaster from load short, trouble of power system. For the normal operation of circuit breaker, trip coil of the circuit breaker can cut the mechanical contact of circuit breaker from the detection of power system troubles. This paper presents a design and experimental results of trip coil fault detection system for the real time monitoring of the circuit breaker. The designed system is consisted by the trip coil fault detector which is connected to the each circuit breaker and remote monitoring unit. The trip coil fault detector can detect the impedance and operating voltage of the trip coil, and the detected values are compared with the normal state. And the remote monitoring unit can be connected to the 32 channels of trip coil fault detectors by serial communication. From the designed system, the fault and normal states of the trip coil can be remotely monitored in real time. The designed system is verified by the practical circuit breaker of power distribution board. And the results shows the effectiveness of the designed system.

  • To decrease and remove of much noises that is detected in PD (partial discharge) measuring test. we forced on detection of those. We made W-LC filter for measuring PD. which adapted that to field test. We tested after design laboratory circumstances like field line. and then the phase change properties of detected signal in UHF sensor were measured by Lemke Probe and oscilloscope (TDS-3054. Tektronix). Eventually we checked decrement of noises from experimental result. Also from experimental result at the joint box of 22.9[kV] distribution line. we obtained reasonable data which enable noises to decrease. Hereafter those results will be adapted at ultra-high voltage for trouble prevention and on-line cable watch. diagnosis of those.

  • The shadows, which is generated when acquiring data using optical sensor, mutilates consistency of brightness for same objects in the images. Hence, it makes a trouble to interpret the ground information. This study is focused on detecting the shadowing area in the images. And only single image is used without any other data which is acquired from different source. Also, This study presents the method using HSI color model, especially, using I(intensity) information, and the intensity clustering algorithm. Then, we illuminate the effects of shadow by FFT(Fast Fourier Transform).

  • Driverless Train Control System has been recently introduced and commercialized in Korea. It is expected that the vehicle with driverless operation system will be used in new lines such as Sinbundang line soon. Therefore it is necessary to change the system operation and conception of the existing train operation system and the necessity of driverless vehicle monitoring system meeting a new paradigm is rising. In order to dispel concerning about safety issues caused by driverless train operation, the importance to establish vehicle error detection, useful fault diagnosis and rapid action plans is higher than ever. For this, efficient and higher level of vehicle supervision & control system should be essentially supported. In this study, remote driverless vehicle monitoring system using by radio communication is suggested to be used for monitoring and controlling important parts of the vehicle and diagnose and take quick actions when vehicles are in trouble at control tower at real time.

  • An unstructured environment requires a robot to possess outstanding mobility and advanced control algorithms since there exist complicated configurations such as obstacle, uneven surface, etc. Especially, when a quadruped robot walks in these environments, obstacles in the walking route will obstruct the walking or may give rise to a serious trouble. In this paper, we introduce a strategy for the stable walking in unstructured environment. The proposed strategy consists of two control algorithms. One is a collision{free algorithm to avoid obstacles and the other is an algorithm to overcome any obstacle. These are based on the obstacle detection method and a shape reconstruction algorithm, Which algorithms are described in detail. In addition, the validity of these algorithms have been demonstrated through experiments using a quadruped walking robot called "MRWALLSPECT III(Multifunctional Robot for Wall inSPECTion version 3 )".

  • In many image processing applications, a random noise makes some trouble since most video enhancement functions produce visual artifacts if a priori of the noise is incorrect. The basic difficulty is that the noise and the signal are difficult to be distinguished. Typical unsharp masking (UM) enhances the visual appearances of images, but it also amplifies the noise components of the image. Hence, the applications of a UM are limited when noises are presented. This paper proposed statistical algorithms based on parametric and nonparametric tests to adaptively enhance the image feature and the noise combining while applying UM. With the proposed algorithm, it is made possible to enhance the local contrast of an image without amplifying the noise.

  • This paper proposes a reduction method for the mis-operation analysis of the DC High Speed Circuit Breaker(HSCB) in electric railway substation system. The analysis method is based on present condition of operation which is a method for accuracy level up. There is reason to operation of HSCB that it is mis-operation of fault detection relay(50F), operation of ground fault relay(64P), and trouble of electric car. A countermeasure is relay resetting through field test, induction of GTOCB(Gate Turn Off Thyristor Circuit Breaker), HSVCB(High Speed Vacuum Circuit Breaker), coordination with electric car. The results presented in the paper can be used as a reference for maintenance free in electric railway substation system.

  • The gas in oil analysis of transformer is the most widely used technology for diagnosis of transformer in the world. It has brought excellent results to prevention of transformer failure. The criteria for maintenance and judgement, however, is still required continuous supplement to improve the accuracy of the diagnosis on the basis of accumulated data of gas analysis and investigations in the transformer In this study, the relationship between the detection rate of the defects and the source of troubles are analyzed according to the investigation in the transformer, which was conducted by KEPCO in 2004. As a result, the validity of the criteria being used at present was examined thoroughly.

  • The effect of high irradiation on inspection systems in a nuclear power plant can be severe, especially to electronic components such as control hoards. The effect may lead to a critical malfunction or trouble to a underwater robot for inspection and maintenance of nuclear reactor. However, if information on the total accumulated dose on the sensitive parts of the robot is available, a prediction of robot's behavior in radiation environments becomes possible. To know how much radiation the robot has encountered, a dosimeter to measure the total accumulated dose is necessary. This paper describes the development effort of a dual radiation monitoring system using a SiC diode as a dose-rate meter and a p-type power MOSFET as a dose meter. This attempt using two sensors which detect same radiation improves reliability and stability at high intensity radiation detection in nuclear facilities. It uses the concept of diversity and redundancy.
