We have developed a patient monitoring system including module-based bedside monitors, interbed network, central stations, clinical workstations, and DB servers. A bedside monitor with a color LCD can accommodate up to 3 module cases and 21 different modules. Six different physiological parameters of ECG, respiration, invasive blood pressure, noninvasive blood pressure, body temperature, and arterial pulse oximetry with plethysmoyaph are provided as parameter modules. In a single bedside monitor, modules and a module controller communicate with IMbps data rate through an intrabed network based on RS-485 and HDU protocol. At the same time, it communicates with other bedside monitors and central stations through interbed network based on 1 OMbps Ethernet and TCP/IP protocol. Central stations using 20" color CRT monitors can be connected with many bedside monitors and they display 18 channels of waveforms simultaneously. Clinical workstations are used mainly for the review of patient datE In order to accommodate more advanced data management capabilities such as 24-hour full disclosure, we have developed a relational database server dedicated to the patient monitoring system. Software for bedside monitor, central station, and clinical workstation fully utilizes graphical user interface techniques and all functions are controlled by a rotate/push button on the bedside monitor arid a mouse on the central station and clinical workstation. The entire system satisfies the requirements of AAMI and ANSI standards in terms of electrical safety and performances.nces.

본 논문에서는 Bell 연구소와 IEC 61000-2-9 기준에 제시된 HEMP 파형이 무한 도체 평판의 개구에 입사할 때, 개구로 침투하는 침투 전계 특성을 비교 검토하고 있다. 이론 해석으로는 HEMP의 전계 분포를 가정한 상태에서 도체 평판의 개구에 생성되는 전계 분포에 관한 적분 방정식을 유도하여 Galerkin의 모멘트 법으로 해석하였다. 이론 해석 결과, IEC 61000-2-9 기준이 Bell 연구소의 기준보다 낮은 주파수 대역을 제외하고 침투 전계는 크지만, 침투 전계의 주파수 특성 경향은 거의 동일하다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

This paper proposes a modified space-vector pulse width modulation (PWM) strategy which can restrict the common-mode voltage for three-phase to three-phase matrix converter and still keep sinusoidal input and output waveforms and unity power factor at the input side. The proposed control method has been developed based on contributing the appropriate space vectors instead of using zero space vectors. The advantages of this proposed method is to reduce the peak value of common-mode voltage to 42% beside the lower high harmonic components as compared to the conventional SVM method. Hence, the new table is also presented with the new space vector rearrangement. Furthermore, the voltage transfer ratio is unaffected by the proposed method. A simulation of the overall system has been carried out to validate the advantages of the proposed method.

A new three phase three-level Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) Switched Voltage Source (SVS) inverter with zero neutral point potential is proposed. It consists of three single-phase inverter modules. Each module is composed of a switched voltage source and inverter switches. The major advantage is that the peak value of the phase output voltage is twice as high as that of a conventional neutral-point-clamped (NPC) PWM inverter. Thus, the proposed inverter is suitable for applications with low voltage sources such as batteries, fuel cells, or solar cells. Furthermore, three-level waveforms of the proposed inverter can be achieved without the switch voltage imbalance problem. Since the average neutral point potential of the proposed inverter is zero, a common ground between the input stage and the output stage is possible. Therefore, it can be applied to a transformer-less Power Conditioning System (PCS). The proposed inverter is verified by a PSpice simulation and experimental results based on a laboratory prototype.

In this paper, the effect of porosity on the acoustic phase velocity of the 3D printed Kelvin closed-cell structure was investigated using the spectral phase analysis. Since Kelvin cells bring about the large amount of scattering, acoustic pulses in ultrasonic measurements undergoes a distortion of waveforms due to the dispersion effect. In order to take account on the dispersion, mathematical expressions for calculating the phase velocity of longitudinal waves propagating normal to the plane of the Kelvin structure are suggested by introducing a complex wave number based on Fourier transform. 3D Kelvin structure composed of identical unit-cells, a polyhedron of 14 faces with 6 quadrilateral and 8 hexagonal faces, was developed and fabricated by 3D CAD and 3D printer to represent the micro-structure of porous materials such as aluminum foam and cancellous bone. Total nine samples of 3D Kelvin structure with different porosity were made by changing the thickness of polyhedron. Ultrasonic pulse of 1MHz center frequency was applied to the Kelvin structures for the measurement of the phase velocity of ultrasound using the TOF(time-of-flight) and the phase spectral method. From the experimental results, it was found that the acoustic phase velocity decreased linearly with the porosity.

전기 화재의 주요 원인 중 하나인 트래킹은 전기적 방전에 의한 물리적 현상으로 인식된다. 따라서 트래킹은 전계해석, 전자생성에 의한 도전성 경로, 기체방전이론을 기반으로 설명되어야 한다. 하지만, 이러한 사항을 반영한 연구논문은 드물다. 본 논문은 트래킹 진전에서 그들의 영향을 포함한 트래킹 진전 메커니즘을 제안하였다. 그 메커니즘의 제안을 위해, 트래킹 실험, 탄화진전 모델에 대한 전계해석, 연면방전 이론을 적용한 트래킹 진전과정에 대한 설명이 수행되었다. 트래킹 모의실험으로부터, 코로나 방전에서 트래킹 파괴까지 트래킹 진전의 각 단계에서 전류파형이 측정되었다. 전계해석은 탄화의 발생과 진전과정동안 건조대 표면의 전계와 전자생성을 위한 고전계 영역을 파악하기 위해 수행되었다. 본 논문에서 제안된 트래킹 메커니즘은 코로나 방전에 의한 전자사태, 양이온의 축적, 전자사태의 확장, 2차 전자사태, 스트리머, 도전성 경로에 의한 트래킹 파괴의 6단계로 구성된다. 트래킹 모의실험에서 측정된 펄스성 전류파형은 제안된 트래킹 메커니즘에 의해 설명될 수 있었다. 본 연구 결과는 화재의 원인인 트래킹을 검출하고, 내트래킹성을 높이는 데 필요한 기술 자료가 될 것이다.

목적: 신생아 집중치료실에서 널리 이용되고 있는 맥박산소측정장치의 과도한 거짓 알람은 참 알람에 대한 반응을 느리게 하였다. 이에 Masimo $SET^{(R)}$는 움직임에 의한 거짓 알람을 극복한 장치로 소개되었다. 저자들은 안정 시나 일상적인 움직임이 있을 때 두 장치간의 거짓 알람의 빈도를 조사함으로써 Nellcor$N-595^{(R)}$와 Masimo $SET^{(R)}$의 임상적 수행능력을 비교하고자 하였다. 방법: 연구 당시 체중이 1,000-2,500 g인 미숙아 20명을 대상으로 하였다. 두 장치의 sensor를 동일한 환아의 양쪽 발에 각각 부착한 후 산소포화도가 85% 이하인 경우 알람이 울리도록 하였다. 맥박산소포화도 측정장치의 알람이 울린 경우 중에서 장치의 맥박수가 심전도의 심박수와 차이가 나는 경우, 파형이 일정하게 그려지지 않는 경우, 저산소증의 뚜렸한 증상이 없는 경우를 거짓 알람으로 정의하였고 두 장치의 거짓 알람의 빈도를 비교하였다. 결과: 대상 환아의 나이는 출생 후 평균 20.8일이었으며 평균체중은 1,668 g이었다. 두 장치간의 전체 거짓 알람의 빈도는 Nellcor $N-595^{(R)}$에 비해 Masimo $SET^{(R)}$에서 유의하게 적었으나 (Nellcor $N-595^{(R)}$에서 48회, Masimo $SET^{(R)}$에서 27회), 일상적인 움직임이 있을 경우 두 장치간의 거짓 알람의 빈도는 통계학적으로 유의한 차이가 없었다(Nellcor $N-595^{(R)}$에서 32회, Masimo$SET^{(R)}$에서 19회). 결론: Masimo $SET^{(R)}$는 Nellcor $N-595^{(R)}$에 비해 거짓 알람의 빈도가 적고 실제 저산소증 여부를 잘 반영하므로 적절한 산소치료에 유용하고 의료진의 불필요한 처치를 감소시키는데 도움이 될 것으로 생각된다.

Objective : The cerebrospinal fluid(CSF) pulsates within the craniospinal axis in response to rhythmic cerebral blood volume variation during the cardiac cycle. The aim of this study is to characterize the normal and abnormal CSF flow and its waveforms in the cervical spinal subarachnoid space. Methods : The magnetic resonance(MR) images were obtained with 1.5 T(GE Signa, GE Medical Systems, Milwaukee, USA) unit using the 2 dimensional cine PC(phase contrast) sequence with cardiac gating and gradient recalled echo imaging. This pulse sequence yielded 16 quantitative flow-encoded images per cardiac cycle. Sagittal and axial images of the cervical spinal CSF space were obtained, and target sites were analyzed for characteristic CSF flow (TR=50ms, TE=12.5-15ms). The region of interest(ROI) was 1mm 3 in volume. Twenty six persons were included in this study : 10 healthy volunteers and 16 patients with cervical myelopathy. The post-operative cine MR study were also done in five patients. Results : The normal CSF pulsation dynamics in the cervical spine showed discrete systolic and diastolic components. The CSF flow revealed a sine wave pattern, in which the systolic phase was shorter than the diastolic phase(ratio=2 : 3). The patient group revealed decreased amplitudes of the CSF flow and irregularly distored flow waves. The systolic phase was elongated in the ROI above the stenotic level, whereas the diastolic phase was lengthened below the level. In the postoperative images, the abnormal pattern and amplitude were found to be corrected. Conclusion : From these results, the authors believe that the CSF flow study provides valuable informations regarding the extent of cervical stenosis and may be useful for the surgical planning and post-operative evaluation.

An indirect matrix converter (IMC) is a modern power generation system that enables a direct ac/ac conversion without the need for any bulky and limited lifetime electrolytic capacitor. This system also allows four-quadrant operation, generation of sinusoidal output voltage waveforms with variable frequency and amplitude, and control of input power factor. This study proposes a pulse-width modulation-based sliding-mode controller to achieve unity input-power factor operation of the IMC independently of the active power exchanged with the grid, as well as a fast dynamic response. The designed equivalent control law determines, at each sampling period, the appropriate q-axis component of the modulated input current to be injected into the grid through the LC input filter. An integral term of the error is included in the expression of the sliding surface to increase the accuracy of the control method. A double space vector modulation method is used to synthesize the direction of the space vector of the input currents as required by the sliding-mode controller and the space vectors of the target output voltages. Simulation and experimental results are provided to show the effectiveness and evaluate the performance of the proposed control method.
