In this study a low-signal equivalent circuit based on the Double Schottky Barrier model is proposed for ZnO-based varistor. Since pin-lead inductance and stray capacitance are considered in pin-lead type ZnO varistor these inductance and capacitance could be removed from the experimental dielectric data of the varistor. According to the equivalent circuit simulation results the higher the varistor-voltage of varistor sample the capacitance of dielectric layer is larger, and the capacitances of semiconducting layer and depletion layer are smaller, while the parallel resistances of semiconducting layer and depletion layer are more larger values. Spectra of the dielectric loss factor $tan{\delta}$ show 2 peaks in low frequency and high frequency regions respectively. The low-frequency peak is due to the relaxation by deep donors and the high-frequency peak is due to the relaxation by shallow donors. Above results are well consistent with the theoretical mechanism of ZnO varistor.

In this paper, using a wide-band AE sensor with the frequency range from 100[kHz], the frequency spectra of AE signals generated from the corona discharges of the needle-plane electrode was analyzed to determine the proper ultrasonic sensor. We also examined the relationship between the magnitude of corona discharge and the magnitude of AE signals in peak-to-peak value under the application of 60[Hz] AC high-voltage in oil. From these results, the main frequency spectra of AE signals emitted from the corona discharges of the needle-plane gap were found to be 130[kHz] by the fast fourier transform. The magnitude of AE signals was proportional to the magnitude of corona discharge and discharge current pulse with increasing the applied voltages. Also the detection of corona discharge point location by AE signals was found to be possible by using two sensors.

The Low frequency(1-200 Hz) noise levels radiated by road traffic were investigated. The results showed that the peak pass-by noise of truck with speed of 60km/h was about 75㏈. For the infra-sound frequency range, the noise was about 65㏈ and it was less value than expected. But the noise level will be increase as increasing the speed. The pass-by noise for train was also measured for comparison. The peak train noise was about 95㏈ and it will be enough noise level for a human body to give nuisance.

This paper proposed the ways for reduction of the prominent peak of the tone noise in air conditioning units. In order to find out the sources of the tone noise, the resonant frequencies and modes of the fans were investigated. Also, the effects of the ambient temperatures and material properties of the fans on the tone noise were studied. From the experiments, it was shown that the tone noise was greatly influenced by the torsional resonance of the fan and motor system and commutation frequency. In other words, the torsional resonance of the fan and motor system has not to be close to the commutation frequency (torque ripple frequency) which creates a rate of change in the angular acceleration in order to reduce the tone noise in air conditioning units.

This paper describes the fabrication and characteristics of a low frequency vibration driven electromagnetic energy harvester. The fabricated generator consists of a permanent magnet of NdFeB, a FR-4 planar spring and a Copper cylinder type coil. ANSYS modal analysis was used to determine the resonant frequency for the generator. The implemented generator is capable of producing up to 550 mV peak-to-peak under 7 Hz frequency, which has a maximum power of $95.5\;{\mu}W$ with load resistance of $580\;{\Omega}$. This device is shown to generate sufficient power at different resonating modes, and the experimental and simulated results are discussed and composed.

In this study a low-signal equivalent circuit based on DSB model is proposed for ZnO-based varistor. As a equivalent circuit simulation result dielectric loss factor $tan{\delta}$ shows 2 peaks in low frequency and high frequency regions. The low-frequency peak means the relaxation by deep defects and the high-frequency peak means the relaxation by shallow defects.

This paper presents frequency modulation method of zero-voltage-transition interleaved DC/DC converter using auxiliary coupled-inductor. In conventional ZVT interlaved converter without semi-conductor devices in auxiliary circuit, the peak-to-peak value of coupled-inductor current has fixed value despite the change of load current. Then, as the load is reduced, the efficiency is reduced because of the conduction loss. The proposed frequency modulation method can reduce the conduction loss by controlling the current of coupled-inductor as the load condition using frequency modulation. The proposed method is verified by experimental results.

Selected mapping is well-known scheme for peak to average power ratio(PAPR) reduction in orthogonal frequency multiplexing(OFDM) systems. In this paper, we proposed a new scheme for generating a set of candidate transmission sequences. In conventional SLM, candidate sequences were generated by rotating the phases of the frequency domain OFDM M-ary symbols but in proposed scheme, candidate sequences are generated by multiplying the m-sequences with data in bit format of OFDM signals. Computer simulation results show that, as compared to the conventional SLM scheme, the proposed approach has better PAPR reduction performance and especially in case of OFDM systems which has small number of subcarriers has better performance than large ones.

This paper proposes a charge-pump phase-locked loop (PLL) with 51-phase output clock of a 125 MHz target frequency. The proposed PLL uses three voltage controlled oscillators (VCOs) to generate 51-phase clock and increase of maximum operating frequency. The 17 delay-cells consists of each VCO, and a resistor averaging scheme which reduces the phase mismatch among 51-phase clock combines three VCOs. The proposed PLL uses a 65 nm 1-poly 9-metal CMOS process with 1.0 V supply. The simulated peak-to-peak 지터 of output clock is 0.82 ps at an operating frequency of 125 MHz. The differential non-linearity (DNL) and integral non-linearity (INL) of the 51-phase output clock are -0.013/+0.012 LSB and -0.033/+0.041 LSB, respectively. The operating frequency range is 15 to 210 MHz. The area and power consumption of the implemented PLL are $580{\times}160{\mu}m^2$ and 3.48 mW, respectively.

Self-excited pulse jet is a specific nozzle with a closed chamber which can change a continuous jet into a pulse one. Energy of the pulse jet can be output not only unevenly but also with multifrequency. With the peak pressure of pulse jet, the hitting power would be 2~2.5 times higher than that of continuous jet. In order to reveal the correlation between the self-excited pulse frequency and nozzle diameter ratio, nozzle spacing and operating pressure, the model of 3D unsteady cavitation model has been used. We found that with the same nozzle structure parameters and the different operating pressure, the self-excited frequency and the width of peak crest are different, but the wave profiles are similar. With FFT, we also found that the less bandwidth of amplitude in low frequency range will lead to the wider wave crest of outlet velocity in its time domain, and the larger force of the strike will be gained. By studying the St of self-excite nozzle, not only the frequency of a certain nozzle can be predicted, but also a nozzle structure with a certain frequency can be designed.
