Recently, various activ filters such as current type and voltage type have been proposed to suppress harmonics caused by nonlinear load due to the use of semiconductor switching devices. At the early stage, active filters are used only to suppress harmonics. However, it has been proposed that they offer more functions such as voltage regulations, improvements of power factor and 3 phase unbalance. This study presents a combined function of active filter and a UPSs with one power processing stage.

In this study, optimizing BPOFs are encoded by Simulated Annealing algorithm that is widely used among the optimization algorithms. Two BPOFs are trained by digit patterns, 0~9, and the digits each having 4 intraclass patterns are multiplexed. When each digit is encoded by four bit binary code, from the results of computer simulation, the correlation pezk is shown at binary value 1 position among the spatially separated four positions at the correlation plane And then, the designed BPOFs are implemented by CGH technique. Through the optical correlation experiment, satisactory results are achieved, inspite of some experimental errors and information loss owing to the amplitude type CGH filter.

Novel concept of shunt active filter (AF) function added in Photovoltaic (PV) generation system is described in this paper. So far, for the PV generation system has been treated as one of harmonic sources to the power distribution systems, not only a PV system combined with AF but also AF systems using PV module as their power source have never been discussed. The basic structure and control strategy of the PV-AF system are, for the first time, introduced in this work. In order to stabilize the output current of voltage source inverter (VSI), the reference voltage MPPT control is applied. Simulation analysis shows that it is possible to combine AF function to the three-phase grid-connected PV generation system without any physical difficulties, and the performance of the proposed PV-AF system is acceptable and stable as well.

In this paper, we propose a novel adaptive feedforward controller for periodic disturbance and noise cancellation, with a frequency tracking capability. It can be added to an existing feedback control system without altering the original closed-loop characteristics, which is based on adaptive algorithm. We introduce novel algorithm "Constrained AFC(adaptive feedforward controller) algorithm" that increase the convergence region regardless of the delay in the closed loop system. In the algorithms, coefficients of the controller are adapted using the residuals of constrained structure which are defined in such a way that the coefficients become time invariant. The proposed algorithm not only estimate the magnitude and phase of the tonal disturbance and noise but also track the frequency of the tone, which changes in quasi-static manner. The frequency tracking algorithm uses the instantaneous frequency approach based on Hilbert transform. A number of computer simulations have been carried out in order to demonstrate the effectiveness of proposed method under various conditions.

This paper presents a sensorless speed control of BLDC Motor using terminal voltage of the one phase. Rotor position information is extracted by indirectly sensing the back EMF from only one of the three terminal voltages for a three-phase BLDC motor. Depending on the terminal voltage sensing rotor position, active filter is used for position information. This leads to a significant reduction in the component device of the sensorless circuit. Therefore this is a advantage for the cost saving and size reduction. With indirect sensing methods based on detection of the terminal voltage that require active filtering, the position information needs the six divider section by PLL circuit, the binary counter and johnson counter by the EPLD. Finally, this algorithm can estimate the rotor position information similar to Hall-sensor sticked the three-phase BLDC motor. As a result, the method described that it is not sensitive to filtering delays, allowing the motor to achieve a good performance over a wide speed range. In addition, a simple starting method and a speed estimation approach are also proposed. Experimental and simulation results are included to verify the proposed scheme.

Electrical stimulation through retinal prosthesis elicits both short and long-latency retinal ganglion cell (RGC) spikes. Because the short-latency RGC spike is usually obscured by electrical stimulus artifact, it is very important to isolate spike from stimulus artifact. Previously, we showed that topographic prominence (TP) discriminator based algorithm is valid and useful for artifact subtraction. In this study, we compared the performance of forward backward (FB) filter only vs. TP-adopted FB filter for artifact subtraction. From the extracted retinae of rd1 mice, we recorded RGC spikes with $8{\times}8$ multielectrode array (MEA). The recorded signals were classified into four groups by distances between the stimulation and recording electrodes on MEA (200-400, 400-600, 600-800, $800-1000{\mu}m$). Fifty cathodic phase-$1^{st}$ biphasic current pulses (duration $500{\mu}s$, intensity 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, $60{\mu}A$) were applied at every 1 sec. We compared false positive error and false negative error in FB filter and TP-adopted FB filter. By implementing TP-adopted FB filter, short-latency spike can be detected better regarding sensitivity and specificity for detecting spikes regardless of the strength of stimulus and the distance between stimulus and recording electrodes.

Objectives: Lung cancer occurred with worker working in an urban bus garage. A survey was conducted to investigate whether lung cancer had causal relationship with work. Exposure to asbestos and diesel engine exhaust were suspected. Methods: Airborne asbestos was sampled on membrane filter and analyzed using phase-contrast microscopy. Airborne diesel exhaust was sampled using quartz filter and analyzed with thermal-optical analyzer. Polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons was sampled using PTFE filter and XAD-2 tube and analyzed with gas chromatography-mass selective detector. Results: Airborne asbestos concentration was under 0.01 fiber/cc. Worker who warmed up an engine of urban bus for 2 hours was exposed to elemental carbon concentration, $15.5{\mu}g/m^3$. Only naphtalene among polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons was detected. Conclusions: It was difficult to conclude about worker exposure to asbestos because working hour related asbestos was too short. In reviewing papers, the exposure to asbestos over 0.01 fiber/cc during exchange brake lining was found. It was identified that worker's occupational exposure to diesel exhaust based on elemental carbon was higher than the other occupational exposure to diesel exhaust.

The conventional graphical representation of the instantaneous compensation power flow for single-phase active power filters(APFs) simply represents the active power flow and the reactive power flow which flowing between the power source and the active filter / the load. But, this method does not provide the information about the rectification mode and the compensation mode of APFs, especially, the loss for each mode was not considered at all. This is very important to understand the compensation operation characteristics of APFs. Therefore, this paper proposes the graphical representation of the instantaneous compensation power flow for single-phase APFs considering the instantaneous rectification mode and the instantaneous inversion mode. Three cases are verified in this paper - without compensation, with compensation of the active power 'p' and the fundamental reactive power 'q', and with compensation of only the distorted power 'h'. To ensure the validity of the proposed approach, PSIM simulation is achieved. As a result, we could confirm that the proposed approach was easy to explain the instantaneous compensation power flow considering the instantaneous rectification mode and the instantaneous inversion mode of APFs, also, Total Harmonic Distortion(THD)/Power Factor (P.F) and Fast Fourier Transform(FFT) analysis were compared for each case.

This paper describes CMOS VCO circuit design procedures and techniques for multi-band/multi-standard RF transceivers. The proposed techniques enable a 4 GHz CMOS VCO to satisfy all requirements for Quad-band GSMIEDGE and WCDMA standards by achieving a good trade-off among important specifications, phase noise, power consumption, modulation performance, and chip area efficiency. To meet the very stringent GSM T/Rx phase noise and wide frequency range specifications, the VCO utilizes bond-wire inductors with high-quality factor, an 8-bit coarse tune capbank for low VCO gain(30$\sim$50 MHz/V) and an on-chip $2^{nd}$ harmonic noise filter. The proposed VCO is implemented in $0.13{\mu}m$ CMOS technology. The measured tuning range is about 34 %(3.17 to 4.49 GHz). The VCO exhibits a phase noise of -123 dBc/Hz at 400 kHz offset and -145 dBc/Hz at 3 MHz offset from a 900 MHz carrier after LO chain. The calculated figure of merit(FOM) is -183.5 dBc/Hz at 3 MHz offset. This fully integrated VCO occupies $0.45{\times}0.9\;mm^2$.

본 논문은 혼합 음성 신호로부터 크기와 위상 정보를 모두 고려하여 목표 음성 신호를 추출하고 향상하는 음성 분리 알고리듬을 제안한다.기존 연구에서는 혼합된 음성 신호의 로그 전력 스펙트럼 값이 시간-주파수 영역에서 서로 독립이라고 가정한 통계적 모델을 적용하기 때문에 음성 분리 결과 파형에 불연속을 야기한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 불연속을 감소시키기 위하여 시간-주파수 영역에서의 스무딩 필터를 적용한다. 음성 분리 성능을 더욱 향상시키기 위하여 음성 신호의 크기와 함께 위상 정보를 고려하는 통계적 모델을 제안한다. 실혐 결과, 제안된 알고리즘이 기존의 크기 정보만을 사용한 알고리즘에 비하여 1.5 dB의 화자대간섭비 (SIR)를 개선하는 것으로 나타난다.
