Flicker is the 'variation in brightness or he perceived won stimulation by intermittent or temporally non uniform light'. This phenomenon is blown as the cause of eye strain and headaches. Many researchers are dedicated to reducing this phenomenon. The flicker phenomenon also exists in PDP as some other display types, and is a critical problem in 50 Hz PDP. However, it is difficult to define flicker by more than one subjective judgment. So, an objective measurement of flicker is necessary and convenient for research on displays. In this paper, a computational prediction model is proposed which is used to predict luminance flicker (not chromatic flicker) by giving a quantitative output that describes the probability of occurrence of flicker. Through this work, we expected to provide a practical tool for flicker-free design in PDP.

In power quality monitoring, voltage fluctuation is one of the power quality problems, which cause light flickers. To determine the flicker severity, the flicker meter concept was developed in an IEC 61000-4-15 standard. Generally, voltage fluctuations are described as an amplitude modulation(AM). The flicker meter of IEC 61000-4-15 as an international standard for flicker measurement recommends square demodulation method to detect flicker signals from voltage fluctuation signals. This paper suggests a new effective method using filter bank to detect and estimate flicker signals, which do not need square demodulation. For the accurate detection of flicker signals, the filter bank is designed with a full consideration of the spectrum characteristics of voltage fluctuation signals described as AM. The frequency and magnitude of the detected flicker signals are estimated using recursive method. Computer simulations were performed on synthesized signals to prove validity of the proposed method.

In this paper, using third-order system of the PLL we'll analyze the aspect of flicker noise appearing troubles in the low frequency band. Since it is difficult to analyze mathematically flicker noise in the third-order system of the PLL, introducing the concept of pseudo-damping factor using the optimized second-filter has made an ease of the access of the flicker-noise variance. we'll show a numerical formula of flicker variance in the third-order system of the PLL which is compared with that of 1/f noise variance in the second-order system of the PLL.

This paper studies flicker evaluation considering power quality disturbance. A flicker problem with light device irritates human's eyes. Also, the flicker problem has an influence on adverse effect such as rolling device and rotating device. However, a study of flicker evaluation is not complete. A flicker is measured and evaluated at monitoring point. But we consider power quality disturbances such as voltage sag and transient that cause fault and inverter/breaker switching. Power quality disturbances affects flicker evaluation. A flicker evaluation index increases. Therefore, we consider power quality disturbances. We detect voltage sag and transient using wavelet and evaluate flicker without flicker index including power quality disturbances.

Large area flicker is one of the most annoying image defects, and it is an inherent characteristic of impulsively driven displays such as CRTs. Recently, LCDs have also adopted impulsive driving methods for improved motion picture quality, therefore LCDs can also show large area flicker. Existing metrics do not account for the non-linearity of human brightness perception. This paper presents an improved large area flicker metric to more accurately quantify large area display flicker performance.

Voltage variation caused by large loads such as arc furnace and large motors, which use the large and instantaneous currents, can cause the voltage flicker. The flicker irritates the human's eyes and also has an adverse effect on protection device, rotating machine and electronic device etc, therefore the flicker needs to be managed effectively. Recently, the Korea power quality standard has been established on the IEC standards. This paper presents the flicker management standard for distribution power system and suggests the flicker transfer coefficients for Korea power system based on the IEC 61000-3-7.

The International Electrotechnical Commission(IEC) 61000-4-15 is a standard proposing techniques for a flicker meter test and measurement method. The IEC61000-4-15 ed1 announced in 1997 was not include tests for accurate verification. Also it was not explained flicker meter algorithm that can be directly applied to the other power systems. But the new edition of IEC61000-4-15 ed2 prescribes a variety of tests for verify flicker meter algorithm and it explains 'correction factor' used for measuring flicker in other power systems. It can measure flicker severity in 220V system by multiplying correction factor to the measured values with the 230V algorithm. This paper compared the method of measuring flicker severity in korea power system using the correction factor and the modified weighting filter, after verifying of digital flicker meter algorithm created by using matlab based on IEC61000-4-15 ed2.

This paper studies a more exact flicker evaluation method by detecting power quality disturbances and excluding the effects of power quality disturbances. Up to the present, power quality disturbances affect flicker evaluation index because power quality problems do not have been considered. However, flick index should represent only flicker without power quality disturbances. Thus, in this paper, we present the improved flicker evaluation method which removing the effects of power quality disturbances such as voltage sag and transient caused by fault and inverter/breaker switching. We detect voltage sag and transient using wavelet transform and remove the effects of power quality disturbances from flicker index.
