A wireless intraocular (IOP) pressure sensor based on micro electro mechanical system (MEMS) technology is proposed. The proposed IOP sensor uses variable inductance according to the external pressure. The proposed sensor is composed of two flexible membranes: a ferrite bottom part, an inductor, and a capacitor. The inductance of the sensor varies according to the external pressure. The resonance frequency of the sensor is also varied, and this frequency is detected using an external coil. The external coil is designed with an FR-4 printed circuit board. The feasibility of the proposed sensor structure using variable inductance to detect the external pressure is successfully demonstrated.

This paper describes a newly developed power conditioner with variable current loop gain. The power conditioner consists of a do-link capacitor and three phase inverter with coupled inductor. This system is very well operated to compensate current harmonics and asymmetries caused by nonlinear load and unbalance loads. The power conditioner shapes the source current sinusoidal in phase with source voltage. A 100kVA power conditioner was built and the controller is realized with DSP Experimental results for many load conditions are presented to verify the performance of the controller.

ln this paper, the designed DVSC(Discrete Variable Structure Controller) is applied to the robust control of voltage controlled APF(Active Power Filter). The voltage controlled APF has good characteristics of reducing harmonic current and harmonic voltage simultaneously. However, voltage controlled APF with large capacitor has slow dynamic response. For improving the dynamics and robustness against to disturbances, DVSC is adopted. According to the results of experiment and simulation, it is proved that the proposed system has the performance of improving dynamic response and robustness.

This paper proposes a GAs-applied method for power system planning using series capacitors in order to control the flow of power as desired and utilize the existing transmission facilities to its transfer capacity limits. The control strategy problem is formulated as optimization problem. Also, in employing genetic algorithms to solve the optimization problems, real variable-based genetic algorithm is presented to save the coding processing time and obtain more accurate value of the variable. An application to IEEE 57-bus test system proves that the proposed method is effective for improvement of power system transfer capacity.

Due to the development of information communication field, the interest of the SMPS(Switched Mode Power Supply) is increased. The size and weight of SMPS are decided by inductor, capacitor and transformer. Thus, the low loss converter which is operated in high speed switching is required. The resonant FB DC-DC converter is able to operate in high speed switching and apply to high power field because the switching loss is low. In this thesis, it is proposed to control strategy for constant output power of resonant FB DC-DC converter in variable input voltage. The proposed control system is a digital I-PD type control and apply to phase-shift resonant type controller. The output voltage tracks reference without steady state error in variable input voltage. The validity of proposed control strategy is verified from results of simulation and experiment.

In this paper, a watt-level 2.4-GHz RFCMOS linear power amplifier (PA) with pre-distortion method using variable capacitance with respect to input power is demonstrated. The proposed structure is composed of a power detector and a MOS capacitor to improve the linearity of the PA. The pre-distortion based linearizer is embedded in the two-stage PA to compensate for the gain compression in the amplifier stages, it also improves the output P1dB by approximately 1 dB. The simulation results demonstrate a 1-dB gain compression power of 30.81 dBm at 2.4-GHz, and PAE is 29.24 % at the output P1dB point.

This paper presents a fast calculation method for evaluating of voltage stability margin (MW) using the line flow equation in polar form. Here, Line flow equations $(P_{ij},\;Q_{ij}$ are comprised of state variable, $V_i,\;{\Delta}_i,\;V_j$ and ${Delta}_j$, and line parameter, r and x. using the feature of polar coordinate, these becomes one equation with two variables, $V_j,;V_j$. Moreover, if bus j is slack or generator bus, which is specified voltage magnitude in load flow calculation, it becomes one equation with one variable $V_ i $ that is, may be formulated with the second-order equation for $V^2_i$. Therefore, multiple load flow solutions may be obtained with simple computation. The obtained load flow multiple solutions are used for evaluating of voltage stability through sensitivity analysis or its closeness. Also, the method is proposed to calculate for voltage stability margin considering shunt capacitor, which is important element for evaluating of voltage stability. The proposed method was validated to sample systems.

The development of the frequency converter using semiconductor enables to easily control the speed of A.C. motors. It is now technically possible and economically feasible to provide them with power at variable frequency, using silicon-controlled-rectifier (or thyristor) inverters. In such a case, if an induction motor is to be operated efficiently over a wide speed range, it must be supplied from a variable-frequency source whose frequency is adjustable over a range similar to that required for the motor speed. It is desired to observe how several characteristics are changed such as primary current, torque-speed, etc. Although the characteristics could be obtained by means of the conventional method, it requires very complicated calculation. It is assumed that the charateristics above are easily investigated by means of current diagram method from variable circuit constants relating to the motor which is designed in rated frequency. In this paper, the results of the study on the current-diagram method and its application are described as follows; (1) In order to discuss the construction of current diagram, the equation of the stator current with adjustable frequency was derived for applying the Current Diagram Method. (2) The radius, the center of the current circle and current vector locus at any desired frequency could be easily determined with the aid of both above mentioned equation and the standard current diagram at reference frequency. (3) This method could be applicable to the various types of Induction Motors, and this paper has dealt with its application to the capacitor, split-phase and 2-phase types of motors.
