  • Impedance calculations of electric railway traction systems is essential to define characteristics and to design it. The self impedance is defined voltage drop rate per unit length, the mutual impedance is represented as a voltage induced to transmission line from transmission line. The self and the mutual impedance are influenced by ground return currents. The earth is considered as a semi-infinitely extended non-ideal conductor. The current of transmission line produces earth current induced magnetically and it flow through a path having minimum impedance. Carson proposed the impedance calculation formula using wave equations and magnetic field equations. Though the formula have an improper equation, that is still used as a standard impedance calculation method. This paper introduced an impedance calculation method that the complex depth of earth return method assumes that the current in conductor returns through an imagined earth depth path located directly under original conductor at a depth of. In this paper, we showed that this proposed method has a closed form and is easier than Carson's.

  • The digital systems include the noise in power supply, ground and packaging due to a simultaneous switching of signal, signal reflections and distortions on single and multiple transmission lines. The requirement for the controlled impedance on a PCB can be both a critical success factor and a design challenge. So, the invented tool simulates the tracks controlled impedance with the test coupon. It can saves the design time and supports the economical PCB design.

  • Transmission line impedance calculation has been tried for obtaining exact value. The method proposed by Carson contains indefinite complex integral. Although the Carson solution is proposed with power series, the solution is limited and valid at special range of frequency. In this paper, we proposed a simplified Carson solution by analytical method using ground transmission line return current. This method calculate the transmission line impedance easily.

  • An accurate digital distance relaying algorithm which is immune to the combined reactance effect of the fault resistance and the load current is proposed. The algorithm can estimate adaptively the impedance to a fault point independent of the fault resistance. To compensate the apparent impedance, this algorithm uses iteratively the angle of an impedance deviation vector improved step by step. The impedance correction algorithm for ground faults uses a current distribution factor to compensate mutual coupling effect.

  • This paper describes the frequency dependence of the grounding impedance. In order to propose the evaluation method of the transient response of powered grounding systems, the grounding impedances were measured with varying the frequency of incoming currents by way of the variable frequency inverter and band pass filter. The magnitude and phase of the grounding impedance were analyzed in the frequency range of 20 [Hz]∼2.1[kHz]. The grounding impedance were increased with increasing the frequency of the test current. The grounding impedance at the frequency of 2[kHz] in the actual 22.9[kV] substation grounding system was approximately 3 times as large as the 60[Hz] grounding impedance. It was found that the frequency dependence of the grounding impedance is mainly subject to the inductive reactance of the grounding conductors. As a result, it is critical to determine the shape and size of grounding grid reducing the resultant inductance in grounding systems for lightning surge protection.

  • Power system fault analysis has been based on symmetrical component method, which describes power system elements by positive, negative and zero sequence impedance. Obtaining accurate line impedances as possible are very important for estimating fault current magnitude and setting distance relay accurately. Especially, accurate calculation of zero sequence impedance is important because most of transmission line faults are line-to-ground faults, not balanced three-phase fault. Since KEPCO has started measuring of transmission line impedance at 2005, it has been revealed that the measured and calculated line impedances are well agreed within reasonable accuracy. In case of underground transmission lines, however, large discrepancies in zero sequence impedance were observed occasionally. Since zero sequence impedance is an important input data for distance relay to locate faulted point correctly, it is urgently required to analyze, detect and consider countermeasures to the source of these discrepancies. In this paper, development of pre/post processor to ATP (Alternative Transient Program) version of EMTP (Electro-Magnetic Transient Program) for sequence impedance calculation was described. With the developed processor ATP-cable, effects of ground resistance and ECC (Earth Continuity Conductor) on sequence impedance were analyzed.

  • 최근 사용하는 정보량의 증가로 인해 디지털 회로가 점점 고속, 소형 집적화를 요구로 인해 인쇄회로 기판 역시 높은 신뢰성과 소형화가 요구되어 지고 있다. 특히 POWER PLAN / GROUND PLAN 간 임피던스 영향, 주파수 영향을 고려하여 GROUND / POWER VIA를 통해 개선하고 있으나 너무 많은 VIA가 사용되어 PCB 제조업체 입장에서는 단가 상승 및 납기 지연, 불량요인이 지속적으로 증가하고 있다. 하여 본 논문에서는 VIA 개체수 최적화를 검증 하기 위하여 정형화된 PCB구조의 기본 Design을 활용하여 POWER PLAN과 GROUND PLAN 사이에 VIA의 특정 개수에서 IMPEDANCE값이 수렴하는 것을 검증하여 최적화된 VIA개수를 찾아 보았다.

  • A dual-band tunable-slot-type ground radiation antenna is proposed. The feeding structure consists of a coplanar waveguide and a lumped capacitor to excite currents for first- and second-order resonant modes of the ground. The resonant frequencies of both bands are controlled using a series combination of a capacitor and an inductor. The proposed design may be an attractive choice for mobile devices owing to its compact geometry and tunable operating frequencies. The measurement and simulation results of the proposed antenna show good agreement, indicating good impedance matching and radiation performance.

  • In this paper, investigations on the impedance characteristics of a DGS(Defected Ground Structure) slot in the groud plane of microstripline are presented in spectral domain and applied to the characteristic improvement of stepped impedance microstrip low pass filter(LPF). In this method, expressions for the impedance of a DGS slot are derived from self-reaction of the angular spectrum of plane waves and the discontinuity in the modal voltage. The numerical results are compared with those of the rigorous full-wave method and are shown to produce reasonably accurate data. And the stepped impedance microstrip low pass filter is designed and fabricated with the uniform and nonuniform DGS slots for improving the frequency responses. The experiments show that the proposed filter with slots in the ground plane has a wider stopband and sharper cutoff response.

  • This paper proposes a control method based on a pseudo-impedance model to control the motion of biped robots walking on an uneven surface. The pseudo-impedance model simulates the action of the ankle of a foot landing on the ground when a human walks. When the foot is in contact with the ground, the human ankle goes through two different phases. In the first phase, the human exerts little or no effort and applies no torque on the ankle so that the orientation of the foot is effortlessly and passively adjusted with respect to the ground. In the second phase of landing, the ankle generates a significant amount of torque in order to rotate and move the main part of the human body forward and to support the weight of the human; this phase is called the weight acceptance phase. Computer simulations of a 12-DOF biped robot with a 6-DOF environment model were performed to determine the effectiveness of the proposed pseudo-impedance control. The simulation results show that stable locomotion can be achieved on an irregular surface by using the proposed model.
