Although DC ground resistance is a good index of grounding performance for grounding electrodes, it does not reflect the grounding performance during transient state. Besides, impulse ground impedance, which is defined by a ratio of the peak value of transient ground potential rise to the peak value of impulse current, cannot be an absolute index due to its dependence on impulse current shape. In this paper, ground impedance characteristics of ground electrodes has been measured in frequency domain ranging from 1 Hz to hundreds of kHz. Equivalent circuit models and transfer function models of the ground rod have been identified from the measured values of ground impedance in frequency domain.

Microwave dielectric properties of $BiNbO_4$ containing CuO and $V_2O_5$(BN ceramics). BN ceramic with 0.07wt% $V_2O_5$ and 0.03wt% CuO (BNC3V7) was sintered at $900^{\circ}C$ where it is possible for these to be co-fired with Ag electrode. The dielectric constant of 44.3, TCF (Temperature Coefficient of resonance Frequency) of 2 ppm/$^{\circ}$ and Q${\times}f_o$ value (product of Quality value and resonance Frequency) of 22,000GHz could be obtained from those ceramics. It is observed that orthorhombic structure was stable $1000^{\circ}C$. As sintering temperature increases, the dielectric properties decreased. The main reasons were abnormal grain growth and the main peak of triclinic moved from the main peak of orthorhombic.

With the ever increasing clock frequency and integration level of CMOS circuits, I/O(input/output) and interconnect issues are becoming a growing concern. In this thesis, we propose the 2.5Gbps high speed input driver This driver consists of four different blocks, which are the high speed serializer , PECL(pseudo emitter coupled logic) Line Driver, PLL(phase lock loop) and pre-emphasis signal generator. The proposed pre-emphasis block will compensate the high frequency components of the 2.5Gbps data signal. Using the pre-emphasis block, we can obtain 2.5Gbps data signal with differential peak to peak voltage about 900 m $V_{p.p}$ This driver structure is on fabrication in 2.5v/10.25um 1poly, 5metal CMOS process.

Some surface blasting vibration was measured to determine site constants and vibration frequency was analyzed. The results are summarized as follows; 1) Design method to predict particle velocities was introduced using the logarithmic normal distribution characteristics of peak particle velocities. 2) Scaled distance diagram to determine limiting charge was presented. 3) Line fitness between particle velocity and scaled distance didn't depend on dominant component of vibration. Prevail fitness was in the order of transverese, peak, vertical and radial component. 4) Dominant component of particle velocity didn't related to drilling direction. Frequency was lowered as distance enlarged. Duration time of vibration was shortened as charge decreased.

The flat panel lamp is used as back light. It is perceived the best type for the wide size LCD of back light system. However, the flat panel lamp has high value of heat. So it need to improve efficiency. Therefore, more researches are requested for the back light of the flat panel lamp. In this paper, the properties of spectrum is investigated according to change in frequency from 30kHz to 60kHz using power supplies voltage with changing from 500V to 700V. As a result, main spectrum peak of plasma showed in 450[nm], 630[nm], 750[nm] and spectrum peak of 750nm is the highest.

This study proposed a high efficiency DC-DC converter with a new current doubler rectifier for fuel-cell systems for use with the Nexa(310-0027) PEMFC from the Ballard Co. The proposed high efficiency DC-DC converter for the fuel-cell system generated ZVS by applying partial resonance and using a phase shift PWM control method. Constantly switching frequency, loss of switching, peak current, and peak voltage were reduced by this system. In addition to this system, two inductors were attached to a rectifier circuit allowing it to be able to provide the direct current(DC) and DC voltage safely to a load with reduced ripple components. Also, by using the newly proposed current doubler rectifier, the high frequency DC-DC converter for the fuel cell system was capable of reaching a highest efficiency of 92[%] as compared to 88.3[%] efficiency in previous results, which means that efficiency increased 3.7[%]. The overall results were confirmed by a simulation and laboratory experiment.

Unsteady nature of a tip leakage vortex in an axial flow fan operating at a design and off-design operating conditions has been investigated by measuring the velocity fluctuation in a blade passage with a rotating hotwire probe sensor. Two hot-wire probe sensors rotating with the fan rotor were also introduced to obtain the cross-correlation coefficient between the two sensors located in the vortical flow as well as the fluctuating velocity. The results show that the vortical flow structure near the rotor tip can be clearly observed at the quasi-orthogonal planes to a tip leakage vortex. The leakage vortex is enlarged as the flow rate is decreased, thus resulting in the high blockage to main flow. The spectral peaks due to the fluctuating velocity near the rotor tip are mainly observed in the reverse flow region at higher flow rates than the peak pressure operating condition. However, no peak frequency presents near the rotor tip for near stall condition.

A new ignition system concept was developed to improve ignition performance, accuracy of control and the reliability of the ignition system. The new ignition system has ho호 frequency discharge characteristics with 1.5-2.0 ms discharge duration, in place of the usual solitary longer duration event. We applied the system to a commercial engine to study its influence on the maximum combustion pressure attained during the cycle, when this peak pressure occurred, imep, variation rate of the engine speed and the flammability limit of a lean mixture. In this study, we clarified that the new ignition system had a beneficial effect of the lean mixture flammability limit. Also for a given mixture strength we found that the mew ignition system gave a higher peak cylinder pressure than in the case of the conventional ignition system.

In oder to generate various shock signals in a field study, a passenger car was driven at several speeds over road profiles that included a number of half sine shaped bumps of various heights. A triaxial SAE pad sensor was mounted on the front passenger seat to measure the acceleration signals which might produce subjective discomfort. The measured accelerations were correlated with the subjective assessments of 14 subjects. The magnitude of subjective discomfort was found to be proportional to the VDV and also the peak to peak of the frequency weighted acceleration signal.

This paper considers the use of the Partial Transmit Sequence (PTS) technique to reduce the Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR) of an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing signal in wireless communication systems. Search complexity is very high in the traditional PTS scheme because it involves an extensive random search over all combinations of allowed phase vectors, and it increases exponentially with the number of phase vectors. In this paper, a suboptimal metaheuristic algorithm for phase optimization based on an improved harmony search (IHS) is applied to explore the optimal combination of phase vectors that provides improved performance compared with existing evolutionary algorithms such as the harmony search algorithm and firefly algorithm. IHS enhances the accuracy and convergence rate of the conventional algorithms with very few parameters to adjust. Simulation results show that an improved harmony search-based PTS algorithm can achieve a significant reduction in PAPR using a simple network structure compared with conventional algorithms.
