Authors propose a PFC(power factor correction) Buck-Boost AC-DC converter by soft switching method. The proposed converter for a discontinuous conduction mode eliminates the complicated control requirement and reduces the size of components. The input current waveform in the converter is got to be a sinusoidal form of discontinuous pulse in proportion to magnitude of ac input voltage under the constant duty cycle switching.Therefore,the input power factor is nearly unity and the control algorithm is simple. To achieve high efficiency system, the proposed converter is constructed by using a partial resonant technique. The control switches using in the converter are operated with soft switching for a partial resonant. The control switches are operated without increasing their voltage and current stresses by the soft switching method. The result is that the switching loss is very low and the efficiency of converter is high.

The conventional single phase PFC converter can control DC voltage to steady standard value but control system is system is complex and expensive and has rapidity problems because of controlled by detecting DC voltage, AC voltage and current. In order to solve those problems, this paper proposes senseless PFC converter circuit. The proposed circuit can control the whole system by detecting AC voltage waveform And it directly controlled DC output voltage by the controlled voltage value Kd(Ed/Ea). The fluctuation ratio of DC output voltage is changed by the circuit characteristics These characteristics are confirmed by some experimental results.

A new optical digitizing system for determining the position of a cursor in three dimensions(3D) and an experimental device for its measurement are presented. A semi-passive system using light intensity modulation, a technology that is well known in radar ranging, is employed in order to overcome precision limitations imposed by background light. This system consists of a charge-coupled device camera placed before a rotating mirror and a light-emitting diode whose intensity is modulated. Using a Fresnel pattern for light modulation, it is verified that a substantial improvement of the signal to noise ratio is realized for the background noise and that a resolution of less than a single pixel can be achieved. This opens the doorway to the realization of high precision 3D digitized measurement. We further propose that a 3D position measurement with a monocular optical system can be realized by a numerical experiment if a linear-period modulated waveform is adopted as the light-modulating one.

Because the pure titanium has superior corrosion resistance and formability compared with different material, it is widely used as material of welded heat exchanger. When the welding of heat exchanger is carried out, certain area in which welding start and end are overlapped occurs. The humping of back bead is formed in the overlap area due to partial penetration. Thus in this study, the experiments were carried out by changing the length and wave shape of overlap area, and then the weldabiliay was evaluated through the observation of microstructure, the measurement of hardness and tensile-shear strength test in the overlap area. When overlap length was 9.8mm, humping bead was suppressed. The microstructure of overlap area coarsened and its hardness increased due to remelting. As a result of tensile-shear strength test in the overlap area according to applying the wave shape control, it was confirmed that the overlap area applied wave shape control had more excellent yield strength and ductility.

Capacitor Charging Power Supply(CCPS) is one of the most important components of a pulsed power system. The CCPS is widely used in source of lasers, accelerators and plasma generators. This paper presents design of a dead time control circuit and operation characteristics for stable high repetition rate of high voltage CCPS. The CCPS consists of battery, high voltage transformer and controller with a dead time control circuit. A dead time control circuit was simulated by PSpice. The performance test of the CCPS was carried out with a 7[nF] load capacitor at output voltage of 50[kV] and a pulse repetition frequency of 100[Hz]. As a result, we can verify that charging and discharging waveform is stable at 100[Hz]. The experiment results indicate that 3[ms] dead time made it possible for stable high repetition rate of 100[Hz]. This paper paves the way for designing an advanced CCPS which is more applicable outside experiments.

In this paper, a study was conducted on the power amplifier control required to design an eLoran transmitter system using a low-height antenna. The eLoran transmitter developed during the eLoran technology development project conducted in Korea used a small 35 m antenna due to the difficulty of securing a site for antenna installation. This antenna height is very low compared to the height of 750 m which is required for eLoran 100 kHz signal transmission without any radiation loss. In the case of using such a small antenna, not only the radiation efficiency of the transmission is lowered, but also the power module control must be performed more precisely in order to transmit the eLoran standard signal. The equivalent RLC circuit of the transmitter system was implemented and transient analysis was conducted to derive the input required voltage for satisfying the output requirement. The voltage waveform was also generated by the RLC circuit analysis to generate the eLoran signal. Furthermore, we suggest power width modulation method to control eLoran power amplifier module more sophisticatedly.

This paper presents a multilevel inverter configuration which is designed by insertion of a bidirectional switch between capacitive voltage sources and a conventional H-bridge module. The modified inverter can produce a better sinusoidal waveform by increasing the number of output voltage levels. By serial connection of two modified H-bridge modules, it is possible to produce 9 output voltage levels including zero. There are 24 basic switching patterns with the 9 output voltage levels. Among the patterns, we select the 2 most efficient switching patterns to get a lower switching loss and minimum dv/dt stress. We then analyze characteristics of Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) of the output voltage with variation of input voltage by computer-aided simulations and experiments.

In the development of paralleling techniques, Multi-Phase Interleaved(MPI) converter constitutes one of the most promising alternatives reported in the last years. This technique consists of a phase shifting of the control signals of several cells in parallel operating at the same switching frequency. As a result, the aggregated input and output current waveform exhibit lower ripple amplitude and smaller harmonics content than in synchronous or stochastic operation modes. Based on the inherent advantages of the MPI converter, in this paper, a control scheme, which can reduce current and voltage rifle, is proposed for PEMFC generation systems. The MPI boost converter is composed of several identical boost converters connected in parallel.

This paper describes a relationship of a space vector PWM and a sinusoidal PWM and presents that the space vector PWM can produce linearly the output voltage to the unity MI(modulation index). At first, reference angles and holding angles are derived from expanding a Fourier series of the reference voltage waveform and then the angles are used for the inverter switching to linearize transfer characteristics of the inverter. In addition, the harmonic components of the output voltage are analyzed and on-line control is shown to be feasible by approximating in piecewise-linearization the reference and holding angles versus the MI. In V/f control of the induction motor, it is verified by the experiment that the motor current is changed smoothly for the variation of the inverter input voltage and the change of the reference voltage.
