The purpose of this paper is to determine circuit parameters in the inverter part of the electronic dimming ballast for fluorescent lamps, that is adequate to use with the prevailing dimming controller IC. Firstly, the operating frequency characteristics are investigated by varying circuit parameters of electronic ballasts and are matched with the output characteristics of dimming ballast controller. Secondly, circuit parameter values are determined by using PSpice simulation and operating frequency characteristics. Finally its validity is verified from the electrical and light output characteristics on the prototype of the electronic dimming ballast.

This paper deals with the design criteria and conduction noise reduction of electronic ballast system which is based on half-bridge series inverters. The system is theoretically analyzed in six modes and operating frequency range is selected to obtain the high efficacy and no sound noise. It is proposed the criteria for determining the values of L and C which are the dey points in system design Because of high operating frequency, electromagnetic noise, especially conduction noise, is a serious problem in electronic ballasts. To reduce the conduction noise, the operation and attenuation characteristics of noise filter are analyzed and the method to determine the values of filter elements is proposed. Also, the parasitic components of the inductor and capacitor are taken into consideration in filter analysis. Digital simulations and experiments are carried out to prove the theoretical results. And perfor mances of the system are verified through tests.

A Fabry-Perot cavity (FPC) antenna producing both high-gain and circularly-polarized (CP) behavior is proposed. To increase antenna gain and obtain CP characteristics, a superstrate composed of square patches with a pair of truncated corners is placed above the linearly polarized patch antenna with an approximately half-wavelength distance from the ground plane at the operating frequency. The proposed antenna has the advantages of high gain, a simple design, and an excellent boresight axial ratio over the operating frequency bandwidth. Moreover, used in an FPC antenna, the proposed superstrate converts a linear polarization produced by a patch antenna into a circular polarization. In addition, the cavity antenna produces left-hand circular-polarization and right-hand circular-polarization when a patch antenna inside the cavity generates x-direction and y-direction polarization, respectively. The measured and simulated results verify the performance of the antenna.

This paper proposes 1.5V-3GHz CMOS PLL with a new delay cell for operating in high frequency and multi chained two stage VCO to improve phase noise performance. The proposed multi-chained architecture is able to reduce a timing jitter or a transition spacing and the newly VCO is operating in high frequency. The PFD circuit designed to prevent fluctuation of charge pump circuit under the locking condition. Simulation results show that the tuning range of proposed VCO is wide at 1.8GHz-3.2Ghz and power dissipation is 0.6mW.

A new SEPIC-Flyback convater is proposed. The proposed converter is the superposition of SEPIC and Flyback converter. Not only SEPIC output but also Flyback output could be fully regulated by constant frequency PWM control. Merged SEPIC and Flyback topology could share the transformer and power MOSFET. When the switch turns of one topology operates via capacitive energy transfer. Another topology acts as powering mode while the switch is off. So, it could increase power falsify per one cycle. The operating principle of the proposed converter is described below. Prototype featuring 24V input 48V output, 100kHz switching frequency, and 100W output is simulated under the proposed topology.

The RF inductive discharge of inductively couples plasma (ICP) continues to attract growing attention as an effective plasma source in many industrial applications, the best known of which are plasma processing and lighting technology. Although most practical ICPs operate at 13.56 [MHz] and 2.65 [MHz], the trend to reduce the operating frequency is clearly recognizable from recent ICP developments. in and electrodeless fluorescent lamp, the use of a lower operating frequency simplifies and reduces cost of RF matching systems and RF generators and can eliminate capacitive coupling between the inductor coil and plasma, which could be a strong factor in wall erosion and plasma contamination. In this study, electric and optical characteristics of electrodeless fluorescent lamp by changing ferrite position is discussed.

R-Mode is terrestrial based Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) backup radio navigation technology which used existing maritime information service infrastructure. It has advantages on reduce the cost and reutilize the frequency resource. In this paper, we propose a method to develop a medium-frequency (MF) band R-Mode transmitting station by utilizing the currently operating Differential GNSS (DGNSS) reference station infrastructure. To this end, the considerations for co-operating the DGNSS reference station and the MF R-Mode transmitting station are analyzed. In this process, we also analyze what is necessary to configure the communication system as a navigation system for range measurement. Based on the analysis result, MF R-Mode transmitting station system is designed and architecture is proposed. The developed system is installed in the field, and the performance evaluation results is presented.

In order to explain the operating characteristics of LTMFP in a wide range of driving frequency, an analytical equation that takes into account the detailed behavior of the normal spot is necessary. In this paper, based on the phenomenon of magnetic diffusion of the superconductor we modified the theoretical equations for pumping action in LTMFP. The modified equations explained well the pumping actions under the different load magnets. These results are important to explain the pumping tendency of the LTMFP according to driving frequency.
