In this paper, A new controller for power factor and harmonics compensation of a single-phase PWM converter is described. The proposed controller requires only the dc voltage sensor and the at current sensor to compensate the power factor and harmonics. Detail simulation model with EMTBC (Electro-Magnetic Transient program for DC transmission) including power circuit and controller was developed to verify the operation of proposed controller. The application feasibility of the proposed controller was verified through experimental works with a prototype. The proposed controller has a simple structure in the point of hardware implementation, and shows excellent performance in normal operation as well as in sudden load change.

본 논문에서는 간단한 제어회로와 반브릿지 PWM 인버터로 구성된 저가의 단상능동전력필터에 대해 기술하고 있다. 이 능동전력필터의 성능을 확인하기 위하여 EMTP 프로그램에 의한 시뮬레이션을 실시하고 프로토타입을 제작하여 실험을 실시하였는데, 그 결과 제안하는 능동전력필터는 단상비선형부하가 발생하는 고조파를 제거하는데 우수한 성능을 갖고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 제안된 시스템은 반브릿지 인버터와 단일 전류센서를 사용한 간단한 제어회로로 구성되었기 때문에, 하드웨어 비용이 저렴하고 프러그인 타입으로 제작 가능한 장점을 갖는다.

본 논문에서는 무선 센서 노드의 다양한 전력 소모 유형을 고려한 배터리 수명 계산 방법을 제시하였다. 무선센서 노드의 전력 소모 유형을 일회성 및 주기성으로 구분하고 여러 가지 동작 모드에 따른 소비 전력의 차이를 고려함으로써 전체 전류 소모량을 계산 할 수 있다. 여기에 배터리의 자기 방전율을 추가적으로 고려함으로써 센서노드의 배터리 수명을 계산하는 일반화된 식을 제시하였다. 제시된 계산 방식은 Zigbee등 임의의 센서노드에서 배터리 수명을 계산하는데 유용하게 이용될 수 있을 것이다.

Conventional piezoelectric lead-zirconate-titanate (PZT) senor has high sensitivity, but it is very brittle. Recently polymer films such as polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) have been used use as a sensor. The advantages of PVDF are the flexibility and mechanical toughness. Simple process and possible several shapes are also additional advantages. PVDF sensor can be directly embedded and attached to a structure. In this study, PVDF sensor was embedded in single glass fiber/epoxy composites whereas PZT sensor with AE was attached to single fiber composites (SFC). Piezoelectric sensor responds to interfacial damage of SFC. The signals measured by PVDF sensor were compared to PZT sensor. PZT sensor detected the signals of fiber fracture, matrix crack, interfacial debonding and even sensor delamination, whereas PVDF sensor only detected fiber fracture signals so far, because PZT sensor is much more sensitive than current PVDF sensor. Wave voltage of fiber fracture measured by PVDF sensor was lower than that of PZT sensor, but the results of fast Fourier transform (FFT) analysis were same. Wave velocity using two PZT sensors was also studied to know the internal and surface damage effect of epoxy specimens.

For a conventional power metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET), there is a trade-off between specific on-state resistance and breakdown voltage. To overcome this trade-off, a super-junction trench MOSFET (TMOSFET) structure is suggested; within this structure, the ability to sense the temperature distribution of the TMOSFET is very important since heat is generated in the junction area, thus affecting its reliability. Generally, there are two types of temperature-sensing structures-diode and resistive. In this paper, a diode-type temperature-sensing structure for a TMOSFET is designed for a brushless direct current motor with on-resistance of $96m{\Omega}{\cdot}mm^2$. The temperature distribution for an ultra-low on-resistance power MOSFET has been analyzed for various bonding schemes. The multi-bonding and stripe bonding cases show a maximum temperature that is lower than that for the single-bonding case. It is shown that the metal resistance at the source area is non-negligible and should therefore be considered depending on the application for current driving capability.

Currently, increasing attention is being paid to relaxor-based ferroelectric single crystals in photoacoustic images, especially for high-end applications. Among the crystals are (1-x)Pb(Mg_1/3Nb_2/3)O₃-xPbTiO₃ (PMN-100xPT) single crystals located near their morphotropic phase boundary (x = 0.30-0.35) because of their ultrahigh piezoelectric and electromechanical coupling properties. The alternating current poling (ACP) treatment, rather than the conventional direct current poling treatment, has recently been spotlighted due to its effectiveness in enhancing the piezoelectric properties. So far, it has been suggested that the enhanced piezoelectricity originates from either a domain miniaturization to nanodomains or from an electric-field-induced monoclinic symmetry. In this study, we demonstrate by thermally stimulated depolarization current measurements that the effect of ACP is too complex to be explained using a single mechanism and that the proposed electric-field-induced monoclinic symmetry is unlikely to exist.

Surveillance has become one of promising application areas of wireless sensor networks which allow for pervasive monitoring of concerned environmental phenomena by facilitating context awareness through sensor fusion. Existing systems that depend on a postmortem context analysis of sensor data on a centralized server expose several shortcomings, including a single point of failure, wasteful energy consumption due to unnecessary data transfer as well as deficiency of scalability. As an opposite direction, this paper proposes an energy-efficient distributed context-aware surveillance in which sensor nodes in the wireless sensor network collaborate with neighbors in a distributed manner to analyze and aware surrounding context. We design and implement multi-modal sensor stations for use as sensor nodes in our wireless sensor network implementing our distributed context awareness. This paper presents an initial experimental performance result of our proposed system. Results show that multi-modal sensor performance of our sensor station, a key enabling factor for distributed context awareness, is comparable to each independent sensor setting. They also show that its initial performance of context-awareness is satisfactory for a set of introductory surveillance scenarios in the current interim stage of our ongoing research.

본 논문은 단상 반파 PWM 정류기와 3상 2-leg 인버터를 결합한 단상-삼상 컨버터 회로에서 전원전압의 센서를 제거하여 3상 유도전동기를 저가형으로 구동하는 방법을 제안하고자 한다. 전원전압의 센서를 제거하기 위해 전원 전류의 실측치와 제어기 내의 모델전류가 일치하도록 관측기를 구성하여 전원전압을 추정한다. 본 논문에서 제안한 기법을 사용할 경우 스위칭 소자와 센서 수를 줄이면서 직류전압 일정제어, 입력전류의 정현제어 및 단위 역률 제어가 가능하고 VVVF 교류전압을 얻을 수 있다는 장점이 있다. 3[Hp]의 3상 유도전동기의 V/f 구동에 적용한 실험결과로 제시된 알고리즘의 타당성을 검증한다.

This study presents a design method for a single-loop voltage controller that is suitable for an arbitrary waveform generator (AWG). The voltage control algorithm of AWG should ensure high dynamic performance and should attain sufficient robustness to disturbances such as inverter nonlinearity, sensor noise, and load current. By analyzing the power circuit of AWG, control limitation and control target are presented to improve the dynamic performance of AWG. The proposed voltage control algorithm is composed of a single-loop output voltage control, an inverter current feedback term to improve transient response, and a load current feedforward term to prevent voltage distortion. The guideline for setting control gain is presented based on output filter parameters and digital time delay. The performance of the proposed algorithm is proven by experimental results through comparison with the conventional algorithm.

Here we report the tunable electrical properties and chemical sensor of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) network-based devices with a functionalization technique. Formation of highly aligned SWCNT structures is made on $SiO_2/Si$ substrates using a template-based fluidic assembly process. We present a Platinum (Pt)-nanocluster decoration technique that reduces the resistivity of SWCNT network-based devices. This indicates the conversion of the semiconducting SWCNTs into metallic ones. In addition, we present the Hydrogen Sulfide ($H_2S$) gas detection by a redox reaction based on SWCNT networks functionalized with 2,2,6,6-Tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl (TEMPO) as a catalyst. We summarize current changes of devices resulting from the redox reactions in the presence of $H_2S$. The semiconducting (s)-SWCNT device functionalized with TEMPO shows high gas response of 420% at 60% humidity level compared to 140% gas response without TEMPO functionalization, which is about 3 times higher than bare s-SWCNT sensor at the same RH. These results reflect promising perspectives for real-time monitoring of $H_2S$ gases with high gas response and low power consumption.
