For passive power factor correction, the valley fill circuit approach is attractive for low power applications because of low cost, high efficiency, and simple circuit design. However, to vouch for the product quality, two dc-link capacitors in the valley fill circuit should be selected to withstand the peak rectified ac input voltage. The common mode (CM) and differential mode (DM) choke should be used to suppress the electromagnetic interference (EMI) noise, thereby resulting in large size volume product. This paper presents the practical design and implementation of a valley fill flyback converter with reduced dc link capacitors and EMI magnetic volumes. By using the proposed over voltage protection circuit, dc-link capacitors in the valley fill circuit can be selected to withstand half the peak rectified ac input voltage, and the proposed CM/DM choke can be successfully adopted. The proposed circuit effectiveness is shown by simulation and experimentally verified by a 78W prototype.

This paper investigates the outage behavior of peak interference power limited cognitive radio (CR) networks with multiple transmit antennas. In CR-multi-input single-output (MISO) channel, the total transmit power is distributed over the transmitantennas. First, we use the orthogonal space-time codes (STC) to achieve the transmit diversity at CR-receiver (rx) and investigate the effect of the power distribution on the interference power received at the primary-receiver (P-rx). Then, we investigate the transmit antenna selection (TAS) scheme in which the CR system selects the best transmit antenna and allocates all the power to the selected best antenna. Two transmit antenna selection strategies are proposed depending on if feedback channel is available or not. We derive the closed form expressions of outage probability and outage capacity of all schemes with arbitrary number of transmit-antennas. We show that the proposed schemes significantly improve the outage capacity over the single antenna systems in Rayleigh fading environment. We also show that TAS based scheme outperforms the STC based scheme when peak interference power constraint is imposed on the P-rx only if a feedback channel from CR-rx to CR-transmitter is available.

For high power photovoltaic (PV) grid-connected converters, high order filters such as multi-tuned filters and Traps+RC filters with outstanding filtering performance have been widely researched. In this paper, the optimization of a multi-tuned filter with a low damping resistance and research on its corresponding control scheme have been combined to improve the performance of the proposed filter. Based on the characteristics of the switching harmonics produced by PWM, the proposed filter is optimized to further improve its filtering performance. When compared with the more common Traps+RC filter, the advantages of the proposed filter with low damping resistances in attenuating the major switching harmonics have been demonstrated. In addition, a simpler topology and reduced power loss can be achieved. On the other hand, to make the implementation of the proposed filter possible, on the base of the unique frequency response characteristic of the proposed filter, a digital single-loop control scheme has been proposed. This scheme is a simple and effective means to suppress the resonance peak caused by a lack of damping. Therefore, a smaller volume, better efficiency of the proposed filter, and easy implementation of the corresponding control scheme can be realized. Finally, the superiority of the proposed filter topology and control scheme is verified in experiments.

Ta(5 nm)/NiFe(11 nm)/FeMn(16 nm) Ta(5 nm)과 Ta(5 nm)/NiFe(11 run)/FeMn(16 nm)/NiFe(7 nm)/Ta(5 nm) 다층박막구조를 제작하여, Laser의 power, 조사 위치, 자장의 방향에 따라 자기저항(MR)비와 교환결합력(H$_{ex}$) 자기적 특성을 연구하였다. Laser 열처리는 power를 440 mW까지 증가시키면서 FeMn/NiFe 이중박막을 15분 씩 Laser로 조사하여, 200 mW에서부터 음의 자기장에서 자기저항곡선의 피크가 발생하기 시작하였다. 400 mW까지 증가시키면서 양의 자기장에서 자기저항곡선의 MR비와 H$_{ex}$:가 각각 0.9%에서 0.1%로, 87 Oe에서 76 Oe로 감소하였고, 음의 자기장 피크에서는 MR비와 H$_{ex}$가 모두 증가하였다. 또한 NiFe/FeMn/NiFe삼중박막에서도 같은 결과를 얻었다. 300 mA로 laser열처리한 면적을 증가시켰을 때 자기저항곡선이 positive 피크는 감소하고 negative 피크는 증가하였다. 이러한 Laser 열처리효과에 의해 결과적으로 교환결합된 박막구조의 국소적 자화반전을 가능하게 하였다.

이동통신 기지국 시스템에서 송신 신호의 PAR 성능을 (peak-to-average power ratio) 개선함으로써 범용 전력 증폭기의 사용이 가능하게 되며, 이로 인해 전체적인 기지국 비용의 절감을 기대할 수 있다. 일반적으로 PAR 값을 줄임으로 인해 기지국 송신신호의 인근 대역 간섭 제한 성능을 나타내는 ACLR이나 (adjacent channel leakage ratio) 품질을 나타내는 EVM이나 (error vector magnitude) PCDE 성능의 (peak code domain error) 열화를 발생시킨다. 본 논문에서 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 필터링 기반의 CFR 방식인 (crest factor reduction) FDCFR 알고리즘을 (filter-dependent CFR) 소개하며, 히스토그램 기반 코드 영역 보상(HBWCDC; histogram based waterfilling code domain compensation)기법을 제안한다. 본 논문에서 제안한 CFR 알고리즘은 PAR 감소뿐만 아니라 앞서 언급한 ACLR, EVM 및 PCDE등의 성능 열화를 방지한다.

A novel integrated battery charger/discharger converter for a standardized battery module is proposed. Instead of using separate charger and discharger converters. it integrates these two converters into a single converter in order to minimize the size. the integrated charger/discharger converter not only regulates the solar array output power including the peak power tracking capability but also controls the battery charging/discharging current depending on the solar array output power and the load power. In addition it offers a regulated bus voltage which simplifies the power distribution/conversion for the pay load.

The Jeju-Korea power system is a small-sized network with a system demand ranging from a autumn minimum of 350MW to a summer peak of 716MW. Because Jeju island is well exposed to north-east winds with high speed, applications to connect to Jeju power system are flooded. Considering physical/environmental constraints, Jeju Self-governing Province has also target for the wind power capacity of 1,350MW by 2020. It amounts to two or three times of Jeju average-demand power and wind power limit capacity announced by Korea Power Exchange (KPX) company. Wind farm connection agreements will be signed to maximize utilization of wind resource. In spite of submarine cable HVDC connected to Korea mainland, Jeju power system is independently operated by frequency and reserve control. This study reevaluates wind power limit based on the KPX criteria from 2016 to 2020. First of all wind power generation limit are affected by off-peak demand in Jeju power system. Also the possibility capacity rate of charging wind power output is evaluated by using energy storage system (ESS). As a result, in case of using 110MWh ESS, wind power limit increases 33~55MW(30~50% of ESS), wind power constraint energy decreases from 68,539MWh to 50,301MWh and wind farm capacity factor increases from 25.9 to 26.1% in 2020.

본 논문에서는 OFDMA 하향링크 시스템에서 PAPR를 저감할 수 있는 두 가지 새로운 첨두 윈도윙(peak windowing) 기법을 제안한다. 제안한 첨두 윈도윙 기법들은 기존의 첨두 윈도윙 기법에서 매우 인접한 여러 개의 첨두들 또는 주변 신호에 비해 상대적으로 큰 첨두에 의해 발생하는 과도한 신호 왜곡 효과를 완화시킨다. 여러 단계의 임계치를 이용한 다단계 첨두 윈도윙(multi-stage peak windowing) 기법은 인접 신호에 비해 상대적으로 매우 큰 첨두들을 우선적으로 제거함으로써, 윈도우가 과도하게 인접 신호를 억제할 수 있는 경우를 방지한다. 다음으로 가변적인 윈도우 길이를 이용하는 가변길이 첨두치 윈도윙(variable-length peak windowing) 기법은 연속적인 첨두가 매우 인접하여 발생하였을 경우 여러 첨두에 적용되는 윈도우들이 중첩되지 않도록 윈도우 길이를 줄여서 과도하게 인접 신호가 억제되는 경우를 줄이게 된다. 제안한 첨두 윈도윙 기법들은 인접하여 발생하는 연속적인 첨두치나 상대적으로 큰 첨두에 의한 과도한 신호 억제를 미연에 방지함으로써 기존의 첨두 윈도윙 기법에 비해서 우수한 성능을 나타낸다. 기존의 첨두 윈도윙 기법 및 제안한 첨두 윈도윙 기법의 수신비트 오율(BER), 스펙트럼 특성은 OFDMA를 적용한 WiBro 하향링크 모의 실험 환경을 통해서 평가되며, 이를 통해 제안한 첨두 윈도윙 기법이 월등한 성능을 나타냄을 검증한다.

[ $Al_[2}O_{3}$ ] ceramics are generally used as components in processing equipment, devices or machinery. But it's difficult to machining as being machanical because $Al_[2}O_{3}$ ceramics are brittle materials. This study described a basic study of the input parameters effect on the dimension of the microhole at the $Al_[2}O_{3}$ ceramics using Nd:YAG laser. Major input parameters are peak power, pulse frequency and pulse duration in the laser microhole machining of $Al_[2}O_{3}$ ceramics. We will get a smaller microhole and diameter rate by an appropriate peak power, pulse duration.

New discrete time domain models for the peak current controlled (PCC) power LED drivers in continuous conduction mode include for the first time the effects of time delay in the pulse-width-modulator. Realistic amounts of time delay are found to have significant effects on the average output LED current and on the critical inductor value at the boundary between two conduction modes. Especially, the time delay can provide an accurate LED current for the PCC buck converter with a wide input voltage. The models can also predict the critical inductor values at the mode boundary as functions of the input voltage and the time delay.
