본 논문에서는 콘포머 기반 FastSpeech2를 이용한 한국어 메뉴 음성합성기를 제안한다. 콘포머는 본래 음성 인식 분야에서 제안된 것으로, 합성곱 신경망과 트랜스포머를 결합하여 광역과 지역 정보를 모두 잘 추출할 수 있도록 한 구조다. 이를 위해 순방향 신경망을 반으로 나누어 제일 처음과 마지막에 위치시켜 멀티 헤드 셀프 어텐션 모듈과 합성곱 신경망을 감싸는 마카론 구조를 구성했다. 본 연구에서는 한국어 음성인식에서 좋은 성능이 확인된 콘포머 구조를 한국어 음성합성에 도입하였다. 기존 음성합성 모델과의 비교를 위하여 트랜스포머 기반의 FastSpeech2와 콘포머 기반의 FastSpeech2를 학습하였다. 이때 데이터셋은 음소 분포를 고려한 자체 제작 데이터셋을 이용하였다. 특히 일반대화 뿐만 아니라, 음식 주문 문장 특화 코퍼스를 제작하고 이를 음성합성 훈련에 사용하였다. 이를 통해 외래어 발음에 대한 기존 음성합성 시스템의 문제점을 보완하였다. ParallelWave GAN을 이용하여 합성음을 생성하고 평가한 결과, 콘포머 기반의 FastSpeech2가 월등한 성능인 MOS 4.04을 달성했다. 본 연구를 통해 한국어 음성합성 모델에서, 동일한 구조를 트랜스포머에서 콘포머로 변경하였을 때 성능이 개선됨을 확인하였다.

Converter transformers play important roles in high-voltage direct current transmission systems. This paper presents experimental and analysis results of the combined electrical and thermal aging of oil-impregnated paper at pulsating DC voltages. Breakdown voltages and time-to-breakdown of oil-paper specimens were measured by using short-time and constant-stress tests. The breakdown characteristics of combined electrical and thermal aging on insulation system were discussed. According to the relationship between failure time and aging temperature, the two-parameter Weibull model was improved. On the basis of the competing risk algorithm and the improved Weibull model, the two factors failure model was calculated. And the influence of temperature in the insulation system has been analyzed. This model performs better than the two-parameter Weibull model when both time and temperature are considered as variables in estimating the lifetime of oil-paper insulation.

The push-pull current-fed DC-to-DC converter has only one energy storage reactor in series with the input for any number of outputs. It is considered that this property of the converter has considerable advantages over other multiple-output circuits. The steady state characteristics of the converter with two outputs is analyzed. It is known that the voltage difference between the two outputs appears by existing the 2nd winding resistance of transformer and there is a region of the duty ratio in which the voltage difference of the converter is smaller than that of the forward converter.

This paper presents the circuit modeling and control methods of PWM DC/DC converter with isolated dual outputs. The dual output converter consists of a transformer with a single secondary winding and two switches. The proposed control algorithm is that required inductor current according to the loads is feed-forwarded to the PI current controller. The proposed control method has better response characteristics than conventional PI control method at load change.

There are generally two temperature control methods using ac voltage regulators - the phase control method and the on-off control method. The phase control method uses thyristor's angles of extinction for the output power regulation and the on-off control method uses the control of on and off times for the output power regulation. Both of methods have the problems that are the unbalance of the three phase and surge current caused system's destruction. The main object of this study proposes a solution of problems of surge currents and unbalance of three phase when thyristor voltage regulator is switching. To solve the problem, It is proposes that the solution of surge currents is using a tap transformer and an additional switch with adjustable resistance and applies zero crossing of switching voltage of two input line to power load. This method is discuss and verified by computer simulations and experiments.

This paper presents a new configure rectifier which has improved input power factor and efficiency for DC arc weldings. Two rectifiers are series connected and they are single-phase full-wave phase controlled rectifiers that use a transformer with two center-tapped secondary. The input power factor can be improved by controlling the each phase of rectifiers sequentially, and then the efficiency can be also improved because the reactive component currents will be reduced. It is confirmed that the proposed rectifiers has about 80% of input power factor and efficiency with the experimental results which are carried out at the output ranges of 100A to 300A.

We have developed a current range extension method to obtain the ratio error and phase displacement of a current transformer (CT) by using absolute evaluation method and two different CTs. The method was applied to CTs under test with the current ratios of the range of 5,000 A / 1 A - 20,000 A / 1 A. The ratio error and phase displacement of the CT under test obtained in this study are consistent with those measured at the national institute in Germany using the same CT under test within an expanded uncertainty (k = 2) in the overall current ratios.

The amount of data stored, processed and transmitted in the multi-media systems has been growing very fast, especially for the image data. For example, it takes 0.75Mbytes to store 512 12 pixels of 24-bit color image. A video signal with 30 frames per second will require 22.5Mbytes of storage space. To solve this problem, we need a good image compression technique. Recently, many researches on the image compression technique based on the wavelet transform are being pursued to overcome the problems of traditional JPEG. This paper describes the architecture and design of two-dimensional wavelet transform circuit. To keep the sire of the circuit small, we tried to minimize the internal storage space by using external SDRAM. This circuit was designed in Verilog-HDL, synthesized using Design Compiler and verified using Verilog-XL.
