In the case of an existing high frequency inverter is became forced extinction by quick load change, due to be connected with series inductor on switch, it is destroyed or is generated conduction loss by resistance component in reactor. And, In the operation of high current with a soft switching, conduction loss can not neglect. In this paper, for the high current power source, we make sure of soft swtching operation and reducing surge when the forced extinction by using a connected switch with series inductor. Also, we poropos a topology of the half bridge type high frequency inverter that can be realized high amplitude operation of the load current. And, analyze the circuit to decide an opmtial circuit parameter.

This paper presents an isolated bidirectional dc/dc converter based on primary parallel isolated boost converter (PPIBC). This topology is an efficient solution in low voltage high power applications due to its ability to handle high currents in the low voltage side. In this paper, the converter has been modeled using non-ideal components and operated without any additional circuitry for startup using a digital soft-start procedure. Simulated and measured loop gains have been compared for the validity of the model. On-the-fly current direction change has been achieved with a prototype interconnecting two battery banks. A second prototype has been constructed and tested for supercapacitor operation in constant power charge mode.

This paper proposed a novel vector digital watermarking method to protect copyright. The proposed method embeds watermarks after finding the closest pair of points and calculating the distance of the points. We tested the robustness of the method through several attacks on watermarked data. The experimental results show that the proposed method has more robustness than previous methods. And the new method doesn't change the topology of the vector data. Therefore, this method can be 'the vector digital watermarking for GIS.

The ubiquitous computing system is expected to be widely utilized in digital home, logistics control, environment/disaster management, medical/health-care services and other applications. The ubiquitous sensor network (USN) is a key infra-structure of this system. Nodes in the USN are exposed to adverse environments and required to perform their missions with very limited power supply only. Also the sensor network is composed of much more nodes. In case some node consumes up its power capacity under a certain required level, the network topology should change and re-routing/ re-transmission of data is necessitated. Resultantly communication protocols studied for conventional wireless networks or ad-hoc networks are not suitable for the sensor network. Schemes should be devised to control the efficient usage of node power in the sensor network. This paper proposes a routing algorithm to enhance the efficiency of power consumption for USN node and analyzes its performance by simulation.

This paper presents the circuit modeling and Control methods of PWM DC/DC Converter with Isolated dual outputs. The dual output converter topology is consisted of the two switch and single secondary winding. The control algorithm which is used by an adjusted PI control methods, of Dual Output PWM DC/DC converter is proposed in this paper. The proposed adjusted PI control method has faster response characteristics than conventional PI control methods at load change. The validity of the proposed adjusted control method is verified with the several interesting simulation results.

Non-destructive testing (NDT) is a technique used in science and industry to evaluate the properties of a material without causing damage. In this paper we propose a method for segmenting radiographic images of welding in order to extract the welding defects which may occur during the welding process. We study different methods of level set and choose the model adapted to our application. The methods presented here take the property of local segmentation geodesic active contours and have the ability to change the topology automatically. The computation time is considerably reduced after taking into account a new level set function which eliminates the re-initialization procedure. Satisfactory results are obtained after applying this algorithm both on synthetic and real images.

Satellite power system is critical for mission design and survival operation. Accordingly power conversion circuit has to stable design and verify for operation condition change (load, voltage, thermal condition). however, multi-stage make complicate for modeling and get all state solution. In this paper present all state solution for multi-stage converter by using Extended Describing Function(EDF) modelling. EDF modelling has merit to solve complex circuit but it has limit too. Because of fundamental approximation, EDF modeling is not match all topology. Consequently, we verify passible topology for EDF modeling and stable design multi-stage converter.

The sensor network is a key component of the ubiquitous computing system which is expected to be widely utilized in logistics control, environment/disaster control, medical/health-care services, digital home and other applications. Nodes in the sensor network are small-sized and exposed to adverse environments. They are demanded to perform their missions with very limited power supply only. Also the sensor network is composed of much more nodes than the wireless ad hoc networks are. In case that some nodes consume up their power capacity, the network topology should change, and rerouting/retransmission is necessitated. Communication protocols studied for conventional wireless networks or ad hoc networks are not suited for the sensor network resultantly. Schemes should be devised to control the efficient usage of node power in the sensor network. This paper proposes a medium access protocol to enhance the efficiency of energy consumption in the sensor network node. Its performance is analyzed by simulation.

This paper describes a design concept of NPC1 power stack for 1500VDC megawatt level solar inverter. This stack uses three latest half-bridge IGBT modules with highest power density and operation junction temperature, which enable realization of power level beyond 1MW without paralleling. Critical design concept on loop inductance is explained. Dynamic characteristics are verified by double-pulse test. Thermal characteristics and output power limits are verified by thermal test. Temperature-sensitive component on PCB as output power constraint is identified. Different PCB repositioning solutions are tested to give the overall output power thermal derating curves, which enable output power of 1.15MW at $T_A=55^{\circ}C$ with $15^{\circ}C$ thermal margin. The power stack characteristic and performance change under different thermal environment is further analyzed.

Cognitive small cell networks, consisting of macro-cells and small cells, are foreseen as a promising candidate solution to address 5G spectrum scarcity. Recently, many technological issues (such as spectrum sensing, spectrum sharing) related to cognitive small cell networks have been studied, but the common control channel (CCC) establishment problem has been ignored. CCC is an indispensable medium for control message exchange that could have a huge significant on transmitter-receiver handshake, channel access negotiation, topology change, and routing information updates, etc. Therefore, establishing CCC in cognitive small cell networks is a challenging problem. In this paper, we propose a potential game theory-based approach for CCC establishment in cognitive radio networks. We design a utility function and demonstrate that it is an exact potential game with a pure Nash equilibrium. To maintain the common control channel list (CCL), we develop a CCC update algorithm. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed approach has good convergence. On the other hand, it exhibits good delay and overhead of all networks.
