This paper describes a load simulator with power recovery capability, which is based on the voltage source converter-inverter set. The load simulator can save the electric energy that should be consumed to test the operation and performance of the power quality compensator and the power equipment. The load simulator consists of a converter-inverter set with a DSP controller for system control and PWM pulse generation. The converter operates as a universal load to model the linear load and the non-linear load, while the inverter feed the energy back to the power source with harmonic compensation. the performance of proposed load simulator was analyzed with scaled-model experiment, interconnected with the active power filter. The experimental results confirms that the proposed load simulator can be utilized to test the performance of active power filter.

This paper proposes the instantaneous source voltage and phase current control for torque ripple reduction of a high speed miniature BLDC motor. As compared with general BLDC motor, a high speed miniature BLDC motor has a fast electrical time-constant. So the current and torque ripple are very serious in a conventional PWM switching during conduction period. In order to reduce the switching current ripple, instantaneously controlled source voltage is supplied to the inverter system according to the motor speed and load torque. In addition, the fast hysteresis current controller can keep the phase current In the limited band. The proposed method is verified by the computer simulation and experimental results.

A simple on-line elimination strategy of the dead time and inverter nonlinearity using the current slope information is presented for a PWM inverter-fed IPMSM (Interior Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor) drive. In a PWM inverter-fed IPMSM drive, a dead time is inserted to prevent a breakdown of switching device. This distorts the inverter output voltage, resulting in a current distortion and torque ripple. In addition to the dead time, inverter nonlinearity exists in switching devices of the PWM inverter, which is generally dependent on operating conditions such as the temperature, DC link voltage, and current. The proposed scheme is based on the fact that the d-axis current ripple is mainly caused by the dead time and inverter nonlinearity. To eliminate such an influence, the current slope information is determined. The obtained current slope information is processed by the PI controller to estimate the disturbance caused by the dead time and inverter nonlinearity. The overall system is implemented using DSP TMS320F28335 and the validity of the proposed algorithm is verified through the simulation and experiments. Without requiring any additional hardware, the proposed scheme can effectively eliminate the dead time and inverter nonlinearity even in the presence of the parameter uncertainty.

This paper describes the development of a powertrain for a 20 kW experimental electric vehicle using a surface-mounted permanent magnet synchronous motor (SPMSM) and its application to a test vehicle. Two 10 kW SPMSMs are used in the powertrain, and two-level inverters are developed by using IGBTs to derive these motors. To control the SPMSM, a control board based on a TMS320F28335 DSP module, which has fast arithmetic function and floating point operator, is used. We develop a 100 V/40 A battery pack, which includes $32{\times}4$ LiFePO4 battery cells using commercial BMS. A commercial on-board charger with 220 V (AC) input and 100 V (DC) and 18 A output is used to charge the battery pack. The performance of the developed vehicle, such as acceleration availability, maximum speed, and maximum power, is estimated based on vehicle dynamics and verified through experiments.

This paper proposes a novel blind adaptive algorithm for computing the weight vector of an antenna array system. The new technique utilizes a Generalized On-Off algorithm to obtain the weight vector maximizing the SINR(Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio) of the received signal. It is observed that the proposed algorithm generates a suboptimal weight vector with a linear computational load(O(6N+8)). From the various simulations, it is confirmed that, when the signal environment becomes adverse, e.g., low Processing Gain, and/or wide angular spread. the proposed algorithm outperforms the conventional one in terms of the communication capacity by about 3 times. Applying the proposed algorithm to satellite tracking systems as well as IS2000 1X mobile communication system, we have found that both communication capacity and communication quality are significantly improved.

In this research, the main theme is the system integration of driving simulator and unmanned vehicle. The total system is composed of the mater system and the slave system. The master system has a cockpit system and the driving simulator. The slave system means an unmanned vehicle, which is composed of the actuator system the sensory system and the vision system. The communication system is composed of RS-232C serial communication system which combines the master system with the slave system. To integrate both systems, the signal classification and system characteristics considered DSP(Digital Signal Processing) filter is designed with signal sampling and measurement theory. In addition, to simulate the motion of tele-operated unmanned vehicle on the driving simulator, the classical washout algorithm is applied to this filter, because the unmanned vehicle does not have a limited working space, while the driving simulator has a narrow working space and it is difficult to cover all the motion of the unmanned vehicle. Because the classical washout algorithm has a defect of fixed high pass later, fuzzy logic is applied to reimburse it through an adaptive filter and scale factor for realistic motion generation on the driving simulator.

반도체 공정 등에서 10-6~10-8 Torr의 고진공 환경을 제공하기 위하여 사용되는 고진공 터보분자펌프 (Turbomolecular Pump, TMP)는 다층의 회전깃을 갖는 로터를 회전시켜 분자를 배출시키는 방식을 사용하는 진공펌프이다. 또한 최근에는 디스플레이 및 반도체 공정에서 높은 진공도뿐만 아니라, 높은 배기속도를 요구하는 추세에 따라, 터보 펌프와 드래그 펌프부분을 동시에 가지고 있어 상대적으로 작동 진공도 영역이 넓은 복합 분자펌프(Compound Turbomolecular Pump, CMP)의 활용도가 넓어지고 있다. 이러한 분자펌프가 장시간의 고속회전에 적합하도록 비접촉 방식인 자기부상 방식의 적용이 최근 거의 표준화되어 있다. 자기베어링 시스템은 전자기력을 이용하여 자성체인 회전축을 부상지지 함으로써 비접촉 고속 회전이 가능하여 윤활이 용이하지 않은 진공 환경 등 가혹한 환경에 적합하며, 터보분자펌프는 자기베어링이 가장 널리 사용되고 있는 분야이기도 하다. 자기베어링 시스템의 설계는 크게 하드웨어와 소프트웨어로 나누어질 수 있는데, 하드웨어의 경우 전체 로터 시스템의 특성을 고려하여 설계되어야 하며, 주로 자기베어링 코어와 코일, 변위센서 및 전력 증폭 시스템 등의 기전적인 요소들이 이루어져 있다. 하드웨어 설계와 함께 제어시스템의 설계도 매우 중요하며, 이는 자기베어링 시스템이 불안정한 특성을 갖는 개루프계를 갖고 있으므로 안정화를 위한 능동제어 시스템이 필수적이며 진동제어 등 여러 가지 기능이 요구되기 때문이다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 자기부상형 고진공 복합분자펌프의 제어를 위한 선형제어시스템의 구성을 실제 시스템의 적용을 통하여 설명하였다. 각 제어기는 DSP 를 이용한 디지털 제어시스템으로 구성되었으며, 2, 500 l/s 급의 복합 분자펌프 시작품에 적용하여 10,000 rpm까지의 기본성능시험을 수행하였다.

Traditionally, Linear Shift Feedback Register (LFSR) has been widely employed to implement Cyclic Redundant Check (CRC) codes for a serial input. Since many applications including network and storage systems demand as high throughput as ever, various efforts have been made to implement CRC hardware to support parallel inputs. Among various parallel schemes, the look-ahead scheme is one of the most widely used schemes due to its short critical path. However, it is very cumbersome to design HDL codes for parallel CRC codes since the look-ahead scheme is inevitable to consider how register and input values move in the next cycles. Thus, this paper proposes a novel CRC hardware generator, which automatically produces HDL codes given a CRC polynomial and parallel factor. The experimental results verify the applicability to use the proposed generator by analyzing the synthesis results from the generated HDL code.
