Frequency domain measurement of propagation loss for ultra high frequency (UHF) partial discharge in the winding of power transformer using a spectrum analyzer and pulse generator is presented. We compared the performance of the method using a network analyzer with and without a winding. Using a network analyzer simplifies the measurement and offers better dynamic range and frequency range. It also provides precise propagation loss within the winding in frequency domain at UHF range. We applied this method to measure UHF propagation loss of transformer mock-up, modeled 154 kV 20 MVA power in KEPCO substation.

Tests of pilot-scale plasma DeSOx-DeNOx system using pulsed streamer corona were carried out. The system consists of the reactor with wire-plate electrodes the $30kW_{max}$. MPC type pulse generator, and $1MW_{th}$ pulverized coal combustor as a flue gas source. $NH_3$ and $C_2H_4$ were used to enhance the removal rate. The experimental result on the removal efficiency of SOx/NOx and on the effect of the additives was presented in this paper.

This paper is concerned with a zero-voltage soft-switching PWM DC-DC high-pelter converter using IGBTs, which Bakes the most of the parastic LC parameters of high-voltage transformer link, for diagnostic X-Ray power generator. The converter circuit basically utilizes phase-shift pulse width modulated series resonant full-bridge PWM DC-DC high-Power converter operating at a constant frequency:20kHz. This technique brings about dramatic decreases in the switching losses of power devices and their electrical stresses as compared with the commonly-used hard-switching PWM DC-DC power converter. The high-frequency switching operation of the converters has some effective advantages, which consist in the physical reduction in size and weight and lowered acoustic noise.

LLC resonant converter is used to control laser power density in ruby laser power supply. Zero voltage switching(ZVS) is implemented to minimize the switching loss by the LLC resonant converter. Laser output power is investigated and experimented by changing the output current. That current is controled by the charging voltage of capacitor. From those results, we obtained the maximum laser output of 1.94J at the discharge current of 860A and the pulse repetition rate of 1Hz.

The PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) control signals have a drawback in that their power spectrum tends to be concentrated around the switching frequency and the resulting harmonic spikes cause an EMI (Electromagnetic Interference) and switching losses in semiconductors, etc. The SDM (Sigma-Delta Modulation) is a type of switching modulation used to reduce these harmonic spikes, and several SDM schemes are investigated in this paper. In the DSDM (Dithered SDM), the SDSDM (Space-Dithered SDM) and TDSDM (Time-Dithered SDM), the signals are classified by the location of their random dither additions. In these schemes, the switching frequency is spread by a random dither generator placed on the input or the output parts. Experimental results are presented where the advantages of the new proposed CDSDM (Combined Dithered SDM) are confirmed by applying to a buck converter.

In this paper, a new simple control method for active power filter which can realized the complete compensation of the harmonic currents is proposed. In the proposed scheme, a compensating current reference generator employing resonance model implemented by a DSP(Digital Signal Processor) is introduced. Deadbeat control is employed to control the active power filter. The switching pulse width based SVM(Space Vector Modulation) is adopted so that the current of active power filter is been exactly equal to its reference at the next sampling instant. To compensate the computation delay of digital controller, the prediction of current is achieved by the current observer with deadbeat response.

The article presents the methodology for finding material damping capacity at higher frequency and at relatively lower amplitudes. The Lamb wave dispersion theory and loss less finite element model is used to find the damping capacity of composite materials. The research has been focused on high frequency applications materials. The method was implemented on carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) and glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) plates. The Lamb waves were generated using ultrasonic pulse generator setup. The hybrid method has been explored in this article and the results have been compared with bandwidth methods available in the literature.

본 논문은 반도체 스위치를 이용한 고압 펄스 발생기에 관한 연구이다. PSII (Plasma Source Ion Implantation)의 전원 장치로 사용되었으며, 기존의 hard switch나 싸이로트론 등을 이용한 고압 펄스 파워 발생기에 비해 다음과 같은 장점을 가진다. 장수명, 고효율과 펄스 크기, 반복률, 펄스폭 등의 조정이 자유로운 높은 유연성 등의 장점이다. 또한 제안된 펄스 발생기에서 사용된 반도체 스위치는 12개의 IGBT가 직렬로 연결되어 있으며, 그 중 하나의 스위치만 능동 구동기 두개가 존재하고 나머지 스위치는 수동 구동기만으로 구성되어 있어, 구동기가 매우 간단한 장점을 가지고 있다.

In this study, a magnetic sensor to make use of eddy current was developed to detect the weld seam of butt joint in the sheet metal arc welding. This system consist of the sensor device for detecting the weld line, the servo control device for driving the weld torch movement and the control unit. A signal processing was applied to smooth the output signal of the sensor. The weld joint was determined by using a 1st order differential method. To improve tracking accuracy of the system, moving average method which has an effect of proportional and weighted integral control was applied to a series of the weld joint positions obtained above. The weld line for tracking was generated by using data regeneration algorithm. Based on these results, each servo motor was controlled by pulse generator. From experimental results, it was revealed that this system has excellent detecting ability for weld line and seam tracking ability.

This paper presents the development of a simulator for an industrial robot. The simulator is characterized by a fully integrated dynamic model and a hardware oriented control scheme. The dynamic model includes the actuator dynamics as well as the manipulator dynamics to integrate the entire dynamics of the robot system. On the other hand, the control scheme is oriented as a hardware structure which is usually implemented in the industrial robot. That is to say, a conventional PI control law is used to regulate the position, the speed, and the current. A Pulse Wave Modulation (PWM)generator modulates the supplied voltage to the actuator. Since the simulator is consistent with the industrial robot system, it provides the essential design concepts for the development process of the robot. In practice, the simulator is applied to the SCARA robot which has been developed in GSIS. Here, it investigates the characteristics and performance of the robot with changing design parameters. Thus, the investigation furnishes criteria for the selection of acfuator, control gain, trajectory planning, etc.
