AODV routing protocol, one of the most studied routing protocols for the Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET), uses the number of hops as the metric to choose a path from a source node to a destination node. If the path is deteriorated, it will cause many problems to the communication. In order to improve the performance of the network, we propose AuM-AODV routing protocol that contains an auxiliary metric besides the number of hops. Nodes using AuM-AODV use control packets such as Route Request (RREQ), Route Reply (RREP), and HELLO to exchange information about network topology like AODV routing protocol. AuM-AODV routing protocol is implemented in NS-3 for performance evaluation. We use three performance metrics, that is to say, throughput, packet delivery ratio, and average end-to-end delay. According to numerical results, the new AuM-AODV routing protocol has better performance over three performance metrics than AODV routing protocol.

In this paper, a constant frequency phase shifting PWM controlled voltage source full bridge-type series load resonant high-frequency inverter using the IGBT power modules is presented for innovative consumer electromagnetic induction heating applications such as a hot water producer, steamer and super heated steamer. The full bridge arm side link passive quasi-resonant capacitor snubbers in parallel with the each power semiconductor device and high frequency AC load side linked active edge inductive snubber-assisted series load resonant tank soft switching inverter with a constant frequency phase shifted PWM control scheme is discussed and evaluated on the basis of the simulation and experimental results. It is proved from a practical point of view that the series load resonant and edge resonant hybrid high-frequency soft switching PWM inverter topology, what is called class DE type. including the variable-power variable-frequency(VPVF) regulation function can expand zero voltage soft switching commutation range even under low output power setting ranges, which is more suitable and acceptable for induction heated dual packs fluid heater developed newly for consumer power utilizations. Furthermore, even in the lower output power regulation mode of this high-frequency load resonant tank high frequency inverter circuit it is verified that this inverter can achieve ZVS with the aid of the single auxiliary inductor snubber.

Biomedical metal implants have been used clinically for replacement, restoration, or improvement of injury bodies based on high mechanical properties, but it has some risks such as the inflammatory, late thrombosis, or restenosis due to the low biocompatibility and toxicity. In various techniques of surface treatment developed to preserve these drawbacks, this study examined the electrospray coating technology with biodegradable poly (lactic-co-glycoic acid) (PLGA) on metal surface. Based on fundamental examination of electrospraying and solution parameters, the surface morphology of coated film was closely related to the boiling point of solvent, in-flight distance, and droplet size. The thickness of polymer film was linearly proportional to the emerged volume. This result exhibits that the polymeric droplets were continuously deposited on the polymer film. Therefore, the electrospray coating technology might be applied into the fabrication of single/multi-layered polymer film in nano-/micro-thickness and the control of the topology for biomedical metal implants including stents.

AODV(Ad-hoc On-demand Distance Vector) routing protocol was devised for use of mobile nodes in Ad-hoc network. When we use the AODV routing protocol in Ad-hoc networks with high mobility, disturbance of optimized route path and link break occur. In order to solve the shortcomings, this paper proposes a new routing protocol in which new routing control messages are added to the existing AODV. The proposed protocol minimizes link break and transmission delay while is able to secure the optimized route path constantly in changes of network topology The performance of the proposed routing protocol was evaluated by using us2 network simulator. The actual Ad-hoc network test bed provides us the most reliable experimental data for Ad-hoc networks. In order to support this experimental environment, the dissertation also developed an efficient embedded system on which AODV routing protocol, NAT, Netfilter can run and other event message can be verified without declining efficiency. The correct operation of AODV routing protocol has been verified in both the Ad-hoc network test bed in which the embedded system was used, and Ad-hoc networks linked with Ethernet backbone network.

This paper proposes a three-phase Z-source dynamic voltage restorer (Z-DVR) to mitigate the voltage sag for the critical loads. The proposed system is composed of passive filter and Z-source topology inverter. As an ESS(Energy Storage System) of the proposed system is employed the Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells (PEMFC). To calculate and control the harmonics and compensation voltage, $i_{d}-i_{q}$ theory in dq rotating reference frame and PI controller are used. In case that three-phase voltage sags occurred, a PSIM simulation was done for the performance comparison of the conventional method employed battery stacks and proposed method. As a result, considering the voltage compensation performance, each method was nearly similar. Also, the compensation performance and the %THD(%Total Harmonic Distortion) result under the various source voltage conditions (sag or swell) were presented and discussed to show the performance of the proposed system.

Long-lived flowed termed as elephant flows in data center networks have a tendency to consume a lot of bandwidth, leaving delay-sensitive short-lived flows referred to as mice flows choked behind them. This results in non-trivial delays for mice flows, eventually degrading application performance running on the network. Therefore, a datacenter network should be able to classify, detect, and visualize elephant flows as well as provide QoS guarantees in real-time. In this paper we aim to focus on: 1) a proposed framework for real-time detection and visualization of elephant flows in SDN using sFlow. This allows to examine elephant flows traversing a switch by double-clicking the switch node in the topology visualization UI; 2) an approach to guarantee QoS that is defined and administered by a SDN controller and specifications offered by OpenFlow. In the scope of this paper, we will focus on the use of rate-limiting (traffic-shaping) classification technique within an SDN network.

Hybrid ballast for field emission lamp with CNT (carbon nano tube) emitter is proposed. Hybrid ballast consists of a high voltage dc part and hi-polar pulse generation part. Field emission lamp with CNT lamp is composed of three electrodes (anode, gate, and cathode). High voltage dc part is for anode and gate and hi-polar pulse generation part is for gate and cathode in CNT triode respectively. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed topology is good for driving CNT lamp. To protect the lamp and ballast, OCP (Over Current Protection), OVP (Over Voltage Protection), and OTP (Over Temperature Protection) are added and the experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method is good for driving field emission lamp with CNT emitter.

This paper proposes an active frequency with a positive feedback in the d-q frame anti-islanding method suitable for a robust phase-locked loop (PLL) algorithm using the FFT concept. In general, PLL algorithms for grid-connected PV PCS use d-q transformation and controllers to make zero an imaginary part of the transformed voltage vector. In a real grid system, the grid voltage is not ideal. It may be unbalanced, noisy and have many harmonics. For these reasons, the d-q transformed components do not have a pure DC component. The controller tuning of a PLL algorithm is difficult. The proposed PLL algorithm using the FFT concept can use the strong noise cancelation characteristics of a FFT algorithm without a PI controller. Therefore, the proposed PLL algorithm has no gain-tuning of a PI controller, and it is hardly influenced by voltage drops, phase step changes and harmonics. Islanding prediction is a necessary feature of inverter-based photovoltaic (PV) systems in order to meet the stringent standard requirements for interconnection with an electrical grid. Both passive and active anti-islanding methods exist. Typically, active methods modify a given parameter, which also affects the shape and quality of the grid injected current. In this paper, the active anti-islanding algorithm for a grid-connected PV PCS uses positive feedback control in the d-q frame. The proposed PLL and anti-islanding algorithm are implemented for a 250kW PV PCS. This system has four DC/DC converters each with a 25kW power rating. This is only one-third of the total system power. The experimental results show that the proposed PLL, anti-islanding method and topology demonstrate good performance in a 250kW PV PCS.

The enzymatic properties for NADPH-P450 reductase domain of a fusion protein between human cytochrome P450 1A1 and rat NADPH-P450 reductase expressed in Escherichia coli were investigated. The fusion plasmid pCW/1A1OR-expressed E. coli membrane showed high NADPH-cytochrome c reductase activity ($830.1\pm 85.8 nmol\cdot min^{-1}\cdot mg protein^{-1}$), while pCW control vector and P 450 1A1 expression vector pCW/1A1 showed relatively quite low activity ($4.35\pm 0.49, 3.27\pm 0.50 nmol\cdot min^{-1}\cdot mg protein^{-1}$, respectively). The kinetic curves for NADPH-cytochrome c reductase followed typical Michaelis-Menten kinetics. The $K_{max}$ and $V_{max}$ for NADPH-dependent reductase activity were $8.24\pm 2.61\mu $and $817.9\pm 60.8 nmol\cdot min^{-1}\cdot mg protein^{-1}$, respectively, whereas those for cytochrome c-dependent reductase activity were $19.97\pm 2.86\mu M$ and $1303.5\pm 67.1 nmol\cdot min^{-1}\cdot mg protein^{-1}$. The reductase activities were also compared with those of rat, porcine and human liver microsomes. The activity of pCW/ 1A1OR-expressed E. coli membrane was 15.2-fold higher than that of rat liver microsome. Treatment with benzo(a)pyrene, 7-ethoxyresorufin and $\alpha$-naphthofiavone which are known as specific substrates or inhibitor for human P450 1A1 increased NADPH-cytochrome c reductase activity of fusion protein in E. coli membrane dose-dependently. These results demonstrate that the membrane topology of fused enzyme may be important for activity of its NADPH-P450 reductase domain.

In Ad-Hoc network, the cluster structure enables effective use of multiple channels, reduces the number of control messages, and increase the scalability of network, Also, it is employed for reducing the number of broadcast messages in an Ad-Hoc network. With the consideration of these advantages, it is desirable that a cluster structure keeps a few clusters in the network, Generally, the cluster formation scheme based on connectivity yields fewer clusters than the other schemes. However, the connectivity based scheme may yield even more clusters than the other schemes according to the network topology. In this paper, a cluster formation scheme dividing the cluster formation into two phases is proposed. In the first phase, the lowest connectivity host in neighborhood initiates the cluster formation. Then, an adjustment procedure for affiliating a lot of the lowest connectivity hosts is employed. In the second phase, the hosts which were not affiliated to the first phase clusters are grouped into one or more clusters through criterions of connectivity and host ID. As a result, the proposed scheme yields a fewer clusters compared with existing other schemes in fully distributed method. The simulation results proves that our scheme is better than LIDCP(3) and HCCP(3).
