Zero-Cross Detector makes pilot signal to control the power to CEDM(Control Element Drive Mechanism). Existing Zero-Cross Detectors has had a problem which can cause unexpected reactor trip resulted from fluctuating frequency of input signal coming from M/G Set. The existing Zero-Cross Detector can't work properly when power frequency is varying because it was designed to work under stable M/G Set operation, and produces wrong pilot signal and output voltage. In this report the Zero-Cross Detector is improved to resolve voltage fluctuating problem by using new devices such as digital noise filtering circuit, variable cycle compensator and alarm circuit. And through the performance verification it shows that new circuit is better than old one. If suggested detector is applied to plant, it is possible to use it under House Load Operation because stable voltage can be generated by new Zero-Cross Detector.

In this paper, A Digital Voltage Mode Controller is designed for the Photovoltaic power converter applications. The designed Digital Voltage Mode Controller is derived analytically from the continuous time small signal model of the boost converter. Due to the small signal model based derivations of the control law, the designed control method can be applicable to K-factor Approach method and bilinear transformation. In order to show the usefulness of a designed controller, and the simulation results are verified.

본 논문에서는 반도체 방식의 직접 터치식 capacitive type 지문인식센서의 신호처리를 위한 회로를 제안하였다. 센서로부터의 capacitance의 변화를 전압의 신호로 전환하기 위해서 charge-sharing 방식의 회로를 적용하였다. 지문센서 감도저하의 가장 큰 원인인 sensor plate에 존재하는 parasitic capacitance를 제거하여 ridge와 valley 사이의 전압차를 향상시키기 위하여 기존과는 다른 아날로그 버퍼회로를 설계 적용하였다. 센서 하부회로와의 isolation 대책을 통하여 ESD 및 노이즈방지를 위한 설계를 실시하였다. 제안된 신호처리회로는 128$\times$144 pixel 규모의 회로로 구현되었다. 본 설계회로는 향후 생체인식을 이용한 정보보호용 지문인식 시스템에 응용될 수 있으리라 본다.

This paper describes the detection algorithm which can distinguish series arcing signal from voltage harmonics or noises produced by the operation of non-linear loads. A high pass filter with the cutoff frequency of 3 kHz is designed and it can attenuate power frequency signal to 80 dB. Series arcing phenomena is simulated to an incandescent lamp controlled by a dimmer. From the experimental results, it is confirmed that the amplitude of the filter output voltage varies at random during series arcing but the signal generated by non-linear loads appears on a regular basis. We proposed a series arcing detection algorithm using the chaotic nature of voltage signal.

The AC power lines and signal lines of info-communication networks are routed on overhead poles and are highly exposed to lightning strikes. Due to the potential difference between grounding points of AC power lines and signal lines, the electronic equipments connected to the signal lines can easily be damaged by lightning surges. In this work, in order to develop reliable methods of protecting information and communication facilities from lightning surges, the reliability and performance of SPDs (surge protective devices) were experimentally investigated in an actual-sized test circuit. The behaviors of SPDs against lightning surges from AC power lines and signal lines and the coordinated effects of SPD installation methods were evaluated. As a consequence, it was confirmed that the bypass arrester methods and common grounding system are both highly effective.

This paper presents a method for the digital control of a high power factor AC/DC converter employing the power balance control technique to achieve a fast response of the output voltage control. To avoid the effects of an output voltage ripple in the voltage control loop, the average output voltage is sampled and used as a feedback signal for the output voltage controller. The proposed control technique was verified by simulations using MATLAB/Simulink and its implementation was realized by a dsPIC30F4011 digital signal processor to control a CUK topology AC/DC converter with a 48V output voltage and a 250 W output power. The experimental results agree with the simulation results. The proposed control technique achieves a fast transient response with a lower line current distortion than is achieved when using a conventional proportional-integral controller and the power balance control technique with the conventional sampling method.

Internal combustion engine is the main source of environmental pollutants and therefore better technology is required to reduce harmful elements from the exhaust gases all over the world. Especially, harmful elements from the exhaust gases are caused by incomplete combustion of mixture inside the engine cylinder and this abnormal combustion like misfire or partial burning is the direct cause of the air pollution and engine performance degradation. the object of this research is to detect abnormal combustion like misfire and to keep the engine performance in the optimal operating state. Development of a new system therefore could be applied to a real car. To realize this, the spark-plug in a conventional ignition system is used as a misfire detection sensor and breakdown voltage is analyzed. In this research, bias voltage(about 3kV) was applied to the electrodes of spark-plug and breakdown voltage signal is obtained. This breakdown voltage signal is analyzed and found that a combustion phenomena in engine cylinder has close relationship with harmonic coefficient K which was introduced in this research. Newly developed combustion diagnostic method( breakdown voltage signal analysis) from this research can be used for the combustion diagnostic and combustion control system in an real car.

This paper introduces reliability improvement and time saving in eddy current inspection by signal characteristic optimization of multi-coil eddy current array probe. In the past, Multi-coil array probe and single probe were used for the gas turbine rotor surface inspection & defect evaluation. The multi-coil array probe was used for the broad area inspection. But the signal deviations among multi-coil array probe are maximum 28% in commercial probe. This differences were considered to impedance differences among coils, so it is very difficult to evaluate exact defect size. The signal deviations among multi-coil array probe are maximum 28% in commercial probe. So, single coil inspection was used for exact defect sizing. The purpose of this study is to improve signal deviations of multi-coil array probe. The introduced new technology can improves this deviation by adjusting input voltage in each coil. At first, apply same voltage in each coil and collect signal amplitude of each coil. And calculate new input voltage based on signal amplitude of each coil. If the signal amplitude deviation is within 5% among multi-coil array probe, the signal amplitude of multi-coil array probe is reliable. The proposed technology gives 2% signal deviation among multi-coil array probe. The proposed new technology gives reliability improvement and inspection time saving in eddy current inspection.

해상통신에서 운용되는 OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing)통신 단말기는 긴급재난시에도 동작하여야 하므로, 저전력으로 동작하여야 한다. 따라서 Digital Signal Processing (DSP) 동작하는 전압모드 Processor보다 저전력 동작이 가능한 전류모드 FFT (Fast-Fourier-Transform) Processor의 설계가 필요하게 되었다. IVC (Current-to-Voltage Converter)는 전류모드 FFT Processor의 출력 전류를 전압 신호로 바꾸는 디바이스로써, 저전력 OFDM 단말기 동작을 위해 IVC의 전력 손실은 낮아야 하고, FFT의 출력 전류가 전압신호에 대응이 될 수 있도록 넓은 선형적인 동작구간을 가져야 하며, 향후, FFT LSI와 IVC가 한 개의 칩으로 결합되는 것을 고려하면, 작은 크기의 chip size로 설계되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 선형 동작 구간이 넓은 새로운 IVC를 제안한다. 시뮬레이션 결과, 제안된 IVC는 전류모드 FFT Processor의 출력 범위인 -100 ~100[uA]에서 0.85V~1.4V의 선형동작구간을 갖게 됨을 확인하였다. 제안된 IVC는 전류모드 FFT Processor와 더불어 OFDM을 이용한 저전력 해상 데이터통신 실현을 위한 선도 기술로 유용할 것이다.

High frequency voltage signal injection have been widely used but they have some problems like over current protection. High frequency current signal injection and feedback control are more stable than voltage signal injection. In this paper, high frequency current controller for self-sensing and parameter estimation of induction motors is presented.
