The transmission networks are not perfect conductors and a percentage of the power generated is therefore lost before it reaches the loads. This network loss effects to the cost of suppling power to consumers, and must be considered if the most efficient dispatch and location of generators and loads is to be achieved. In this paper, we propose an approximate calculation of marginal loss factors to analyze characteristics of transmission loss of KEPCO power system. These static marginal loss factors are approximately calculated based on the KEPCO's expected summer peak load data of year 2000.

The main objective of critical excitation methods is to reveal the worst possible response of structures. This goal is accomplished by considering the uncertainties of ground motion, which is subjected to the appropriate constraints, such as earthquake power and intensity limit. The concentration of this current study is on the theoretical optimization aspect, as is the case with the majority of conventional critical excitation methods. However, these previous studies on critical excitation lead to a discontinuous power spectral density (PSD). This paper introduces some critical excitations which contain proper continuity in frequency domain. The main idea for generating such continuous excitations stems from the combination of two continuous functions. On the other hand, in order to provide a non-stationary model, this paper attempts to present an appropriate envelope function, which unlike the previous envelope functions, can properly cover the natural earthquakes' accelerograms based on multi-peak conditions. Finally, the proposed method is developed into the multiple-degree-of-freedom (M.D.O.F) structures.

This paper presents two 3-stage D-band stacked amplifiers developed in a $0.13-{\mu}m$ SiGe BiCMOS technology, employed to compare the conventional cascode topology and the common-base (CB)/CB stacked topology. AMP1 employs two cascode stages followed by a CB/CB stacked stage, while AMP2 is composed of three CB/CB stacked stages. AMP1 showed a 17.1 dB peak gain at 143.8 GHz and a saturation output power of -4.2 dBm, while AMP2 showed a 20.4 dB peak gain at 150.6 GHz and a saturation output power of -1.3 dBm. The respective power dissipation was 42.9 mW and 59.4 mW for the two amplifiers. The results show that CB/CB stacked topology is favored over cascode topology in terms of gain near 140 GHz.

Although two types of uncertainty such as randomness and fuzziness simultaneously exist in power systems, yet they have been treated as distinct fields to evaluate the power system reliability. Thus, this paper presents a reliability assessment method based on a combined concept of fuzzy and probability. To reflect the two-fold uncertainty, a modified load duration curve(MLDC) is proposed using the probability distribution of historical load data in which a fuzzy model for the peak load forecast is embedded. IEEE RTS system was used to demonstrate the usefulness and applicability of the proposed method, and the reliability indices were obtained using the proposed MLDC. The results show a wider insight into impact of load fuzziness on uncertainties of reliability indices for power systems.

A bidirectional dc-dc converter is used in battery energy storage systems owing to the growing requirements of a charging and discharging mode of battery. The magnetic coupling of output or input inductors in parallel-connected multi modules of a bidirectional dc-dc converter is often utilized to reduce the peak-to-peak ripple size of the inductor current. This study proposes a novel design guideline to achieve minimal ripple size of the inductor current under bidirectional power flow. The newly proposed design guideline of optimized coupling factor is applicable to the buck and boost operation modes of a bidirectional dc-dc converter. Therefore, the coupling factor value of the coupled inductor does not have to be optimized separately for buck and boost operation modes. This new observation is explained using the theoretical model of coupled inductor and confirmed through simulation and experimental test.

A novel linear switched termination active cross-coupled low-voltage differential signaling (LVDS) transceiver operating at 1.5 GHz clock frequency is presented. On the transmitter side, an active cross-coupled linear output driver and a switched termination scheme are applied to achieve high speed with low current. On the receiver side, a shared pre-amplifier scheme is employed to reduce power consumption. The proposed LVDS transceiver implemented in an 80 nm CMOS process is successfully demonstrated to provide a data rate of 6 Gbps/pin, an output data window of 147 ps peak-to-peak, and a data swing of 196 mV. The power consumption is measured to be 4.2 mW/pin at 1.2 V.

Electrical power peak demand of Republic of Korea is annually growing and the peak demand has occurred in the summer. It is difficult that we handle with constructing power plants and increasing generation capacity to cope with a suddenly increased demand due to the cost problem, difficulty to find the new plant site, and the spread of the NIMBY. The alternative of the above problem is to efficiently manage demand of electrical power. Accordingly, load shedding of a section of demand side management is investigated. First we surveyed a trend of research in the domestic and overseas, for load curtailment and demand response program. After reviewing several demand response programs, the future research direction for load shedding in emergency and normal operation is introduced.

The power curve during rubber mixing presents useful information for the understanding of rubber mixing process, because the power curve is determined the mixing state of rubber at the point. The time to the second peak on the power curve is known as carbon black incorporation time, BIT. This study gets the quantity relationship of BIT and viscosity of natural rubber, so by determining the mixing time of the compound on the ground of viscosity of the raw rubber. The mixing with natural rubber and carbon black is examined for various grade natural rubbers, encompassing a wide range of Mooney viscosity. Alter smoothing the mixing power curve using a polynomial, the carbon black incorporation time, BIT, was determined time to second power peak on the curve, The BIT's versus specific values on Mooney viscometer test curve show a linear relation, Especially, the peak of initial maximum torque on Mooney viscometer curve, PMT, is most relevant property relating to the BIT. PMT is useful index for determined optimum mixing time, To apply this results at the mixing, we effectively control the natural rubber mixing but can also know the grading of natural rubber upon processability.

본 논문에서는 OFDM 시스템에서 최대전력 대 평균전력(Peak-to -average Power Ratio : PAPR) 및 계산량(computation)을 최소화하는 PAPR-최소화하는 시퀀스 매핑 기법을 제안한다. PAPR을 줄이기 위해, 낮은 신호 전력의 블락 지수(block index)와 심벌 패턴들에 관한 정보를 이용하여 사상(mapping table)을 작성한다. 입력 데이터 시퀀스는 목(quotient)과 나머지(remainder)을 찾기위해 블락 지수로 나눈다. 낮은 신호 전력의 심벌 패턴은 사상 표에서 음에 따른 블락 지수의 항으로 찾게되고, 수신기에서 최초의 데이터 시퀀스를 구별하고 복원하기 위한 추가정보처럼 나머지와 함께 전송된다. 본 논문에서는 두가지 방식의 사상(mapping) 기법을 제안한다. 하나는 OFDM 신호를 복원하기위해 송신기와 수신기 양쪽 다 사상 표를 갖는 기법이고, 다른 하나는 이동국(mobile) 시스템에서 부하와 복잡성을 줄이기 위해 단지 송신기만 사상 표를 사용하는 기법이다. 이들 알고리즘은 다중 캐리어 시스템에서 PAPR 경감, 단순 처리, 그리고 적은 계산량을 확인할 수 있었다.
