In interference tolerance based spectrum sharing systems, primary receivers (PRs) are protected by a predefined peak or average interference power constraint. To implement such systems, cognitive radio (CR) transmitters are required to adjust their transmit power so that the interference power received at the PR receivers is kept below the threshold value. Hence, a CR-transmitter requires knowledge of its channel and the primary receiver in order to allocate the transmit power. In practice, it is impossible or very difficult for a CR transmitter to have perfect knowledge of this channel state information (CSI). In this paper, we investigate the impact of imperfect knowledge of this CSI on the performances of both a primary and cognitive radio network. For fixed transmit power, average interference power (AIP) constraint can be maintained through knowledge of the channel distribution information. To maintain the peak interference power (PIP) constraint, on the other hand, the CR-transmitter requires the instantaneous CSI of its channel with the primary receiver. First, we show that, compared to the PIP constraint with perfect CSI, the AIP constraint is advantageous for primary users but not for CR users. Then, we consider a PIP constraint with imperfect CSI at the CR-transmitter. We show that inaccuracy in CSI reduces the interference at the PR-receivers that is caused by the CR-transmitter. Consequently the proposed schemes improve the capacity of the primary links. Contrarily, the capacities of the CR links significantly degrade due to the inaccuracy in CSI.

As power consumption increases, more power utilities are required to satisfy the demand and consequently results in tremendous cost to build the utilities. Another issue in construction of power utilities to meet the peak demand is an inefficiency caused by surplus power during non-peak time. Therefore, most power company considers power demand management with time-based electricity rate policy which applies different rate over time. This paper considers an optimal machine operation problem under the time-based electricity rates. In TOC (Theory of Constraints), the production capacities of all machines are limited to one of the bottleneck machine to minimize the WIP (work in process). In the situation, other machines except the bottleneck are able to stop their operations without any throughput loss of the whole manufacturing line for saving power utility cost. To consider this problem three integer programming models are introduced. The three models include (1) line shutdown, (2) block shutdown, and (3) individual machine shutdown. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed IP models through diverse experiments, by comparing with a TOC-based machine operation planning considered as a current model.

In this paper, a novel power management structure for an energy harvesting pervasive system is proposed. The system considers the power state of each subsystem to assign proper power sources. The switch matrix structure utilizes each power source to reduce the peak current of the battery. The power management structure can be interfaced to an embedded system power supply without significant design change.

최근 발전소의 첨단기술을 적용한 설비들이 대형화되고, 발전기의 정지나 사고 등으로 막대한 유지보수 비용을 필요로 하고 있다. 따라서 이러한 기계설비들의 운전 상태를 감시하고 고장을 예측할 수 있는 새로운 진단장치의 개발이 요구된다고 본다. 본 연구는 이러한 점에 착안하여 기계들의 정상/비정상 운전 상태를 정상레벨/비정상레벨/주의레벨/위험레벨/고장 즉 5단계로 세분화하고 각 단계별 판별기준을 정하여 운전 중 발생하는 기기들의 신호를 취득 및 분석하여 기기들의 정지 없이 기기의 운전 상태를 실시간 판별할 수 있는 시스템을 개발한다. 이를 위하여, 영역분할 알고리즘에 기반하여 기기의 운전 상태를 주파수특성 행렬로 표시하는 방법을 고안하였다. 각 기기들의 운전 상태를 간략히 피크코드화하고, 이 피크코드를 바코드처럼 활용할 수 있도록 발전설비 기기에 부착함으로서 기기의 운전상태 관리를 시스템화 할 수 있도록 하였다. 5단계 중 주의레벨에서 기기들의 예방정비를 수행하여 발전소의 경제적이고 안정적인 운전효율을 높이는 것이 궁극적 목표이며, 현장 적용 시의 이동성을 고려하여 노트북 컴퓨터로 신호취득에서 판별까지 가능하도록 알고리즘을 개발하였다.

OFDM 통신 시스템에서는 피크전력 대 평균전력비(Peak to Average Power Ratio, PAPR)가 커짐에 따라 전력증폭기에서 비선형 왜곡이 발생되므로 이를 포함한 전송 성능평가가 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 전력증폭기에서 비선형 왜곡이 있는 OFDM 시스템의 성능을 평가하는 새로운 혼합 분석기법을 제안한다. 즉, 제안된 혼합 분석기법은 시뮬레이션을 이용하여 먼저 PAPR의 확률밀도함수와 비선형 잡음의 분산과 평균을 구하고, 이를 이용하여 해석적(analytical) 방법으로 전체 BER을 구하는 방법이다. QPSK 또는 16-QAM 변조방식의 OFDM 시스템에서, 반도체전력증폭기(Solid-State-Power Amplifier, SSPA)의 등가모델을 적용하고, PAPR을 파라미터로 사용하여 IBO 크기에 따른 BER을 분석한다. 제안 방법이 기존의 Monte-Carlo 시뮬레이션에 의한 BER과 거의 동일한 분석 결과를 보이고, 기존 방법보다 BER곡선을 얻는데 필요한 시간이 상당히 감소됨을 보인다

OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) 시스템에서 SLM (Selected Mapping)은 전송신호의 왜곡 없이 PAPR (Peak-to-Average Power Ratio)을 효율적으로 줄일 수 있는 기법이다. 하지만, 충분한 후보 OFDM 신호를 생성하기 위해서는 많은 양의 IFFT (Inverse Fast Fourier Transform) 연산을 필요로 하고, 이는 SLM 기법을 매우 복잡하게 만든다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 첫 번째 후보 OFDM 신호를 변환하여 나머지 IFFT 연산들을 대체하는 새로운 SLM 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 기법은 기존의 SLM 기법과 비교하여 거의 같은 PAPR 저감 성능을 보임과 동시에 계산 복잡도는 크게 감소 시킬 수 있다.

Isokinetic test of muscle strength was performed on 20 patients operated laminectomy & discectomy. Peak torque of ankle dorsi flexors & plantar flexors at the angular velocity of $30^{\circ}$/sec and average power and total work of ankle dorsi flexors & plantar flexors at the angular velocity $90^{\circ}$/sec were measured and analyzed.

본 논문에서는 OFDM 시스템의 문제점으로 지적되고 있는 송신단의 피크전력 대 평균전력비(Peak to average Power Rate; PAR) 을 고려하여 부호화된 OFDM (Coded OFDM) 시스템을 설계하고 PAR 저감기법을 사용하여 BER (Bit Error Rate)과 SNR (Signal to Noise Ratio) 특성을 평가하였다. 변조방식에 따른 성능 평가를 위하여 M-ary PSK와 M-ary QAM 방식을 비교하였고, 그 결과 16-PSK와 16-QAM 의 성능이 우수하게 나타났다. 또한 16-QAM이 16-PSK 방식보다 10-3의 오차범위에서 2 dB 더 우수한 성능을 보였으며, Peak Power Clipping 기법에서는 약 5dB 정도 우수한 성능을 보였다.

This paper presents an advanced load control method in Direct Load Control(DLC) system. It is important to aggregate a various demand side resource which is surely controllable at the peak power time for a successful DLC system. Because the DLC system use simple On/Off control that may cause a harmful effect on a plant to reduce a peak power load, there are some restriction on deriving a voluntary participation of demand side resource. So it needs a new approach to direct load control method, and this paper describes an advanced load control method using control logic which is based on load properties. This method is easy to take account of a various characteristic of load, it can be use as a dynamic control logic which is good for adaptive control. The suggested control logic method is verified by modeling a control logic for a turbo refrigerator which affects on peak power in summer season.

Magnesium has good castability and limited workability, so its products have been manufactured by almost casting processes. In this study, a pulsed Nd:YAG laser was used to butt-weld the sand casting magnesium alloys. And the effect of welding conditions such as peak power, pulse width, welding speed was evaluated in detail. As a result of this study, large underfill and plenty of spatter taken place under the conditions with high peak power. Thus, it is recommended to use low peak power and long pulse width to obtain good welds with deep penetration. It is also confirmed that the welding speed and pps(pulse per second) are directly connected at weld defects such as underfill, porosity.
