This paper describes investigations of the UHF(Ultra High Frequency) PD(Partial Discharge) measuring technology designed for monitoring of PD in high power apparatus. Based on the spiral antenna theory, the hole type sensor for GIS with metal flange spacer and injection type sensor for oil filled transformer are developed. The experimental results show measurement characteristics of the PD sensor for several artificial defects in gas-insulated system(GIS) and oil transformer. Moreover, we proposed the new $\phi$-f-q method for the purpose of condition assessment of high power apparatus.

This paper shows the design improvement and test model of FAU (Frequency Analysis Unit) in PDD (Partial Discharge Diagnosis system) for 800kV GIS (Gas Insulated Switchgear). We found some problems during operation of previous FAU, such as the aging of fiber-optic converter that can cause communication error, the malfunction of signal analysis circuit etc. And then we solved those problems by design improvement and verified the performance through type test. To monitor partial discharge, the performance of UHF sensor is important but the performance of frequency analysis unit is also very important. So we solved communication error, the malfunction of signal analysis circuit and then increased the operation reliability of FAU by improving fiber-optic converter and signal analysis circuit. Accredited testing laboratory carried out the performance verification test according to performance test criteria and procedure of reliability test standards, IEC-60225, 61000 and 60068 etc. We confirmed the test results which correspond with the performance test criteria.

In this paper, a design method for a compact stepped open slot antenna for an operation in the UWB band is studied. The proposed antenna is miniaturized by inserting L-shaped slots on the ground plane of the stepped open slot antenna through the creation of a resonance in the low frequency, and a strip director is appended to the antenna in order to increase the gain in the middle and high frequency regions. The effects of varying the length of the L-shaped slots, the distance between the director and the slot antenna, and the director length on input reflection coefficient and realized gain characteristics of the proposed antenna are analyzed. The optimized antenna with the size of $30mm{\times}30mm$ is fabricated on an FR4 substrate, and the experiment results show that the antenna has a frequency band of 3.02-11.04 GHz for a VSWR < 2, which assures the operation in the UWB band.

This paper describes a ultrasonic signal processing front-end IC for distance range meter and body detector. The burst shaped ultrasonic signal is generated by a self oscillator and its frequency range is about 40[kHz]-300[kHz]. The generated ultrasonic signal transmit through piezo resonator. The another piezo device transduce from received ultrasonic signal to electrical signals. This front-end IC contained low noise amplifier, band pass filter, busrt detector and time pulse generator and so on. This IC has two type of new idea for improve function and performance, which are self frequency control (SFC) and Variable Gain Control amplifier (VGC) scheme. The dimensions and number of external parts are minimized in order to get a smaller hardware size. This device has been fabricated in a O.6[um] double poly, double metal 40[V] High Voltage CMOS process.

최근 무선통신의 활성화에 따라, V/UHF(very/ultra high Frequency) 대역에서 한정된 주파수를 효율적으로 이용하기 위한 방법의 하나로서, 점차 점유 주파수 대역의 폭을 축소하여 보다 많은 이용자를 수용하도록 무선 채널의 협대역화가 추진되고 있다. 본 고에서는 먼저 V/UHF 대역 무선 통신에서 채널의 협대역화에 관련된 기술 중에서 현재까지 사용되고 있는 FM(frequency modulation), AM(amplitude modulation) 변조 방식의 장,단점을 살펴본후, 새로운 LM(linear modulation) 변조 방식에 대한 기술적 배경 및 특성을 알아보았다.

A 6-DOF precision stage was developed based on parallel kinematics structure with flexure hinges to eliminate backlash, stick-slip and friction and to minimize parasitic motion coupled with motions in the other-axis directions. For the stage, lever linkage mechanism was devised to reduce the height of system for the enhancement of horizontal stiffness. Frequency response comparison between experimental results and mathematical model extracted from dynamics of the stage was performed to identify the system parameters such as spring constants and damping coefficients of actuation modules, which cannot be calculated accurately by analytic methods owing to their complicated structures. This newly developed precision stage and its identified model will be very useful for precision positioning and control because of its high accuracy and non-coupled movement.
