In this paper, we describe an isolated words recognition system for Korean isolated digits based on a voiced -unvoiced decision algorithm and a frequency domain analysis. The algorithm first performs a voiced-unvoiced decision procedure for the begtinning part of each uttered work using the normalized log energy and zero crossing rate as decision parameters. Based on this decision,. each word is assigned to one of two classes. In order to identify the uttered word within each class, a dynamic time warping algorithm is applied using formant frequencies as the basis for the distance measure. We exploit a pole-zero analysis to measure formant frequencies in each frame. We have observed that pole-zero analysis can provide more accurate estimation of formant frequencies than analysis based on poles only. Experimental recognition rates of 97.3% illustrating the performance of the recognition system was achieved.

In this study, a zero-crossing spike current issue in a totem-pole bridgeless power factor correction (PFC) converter is comprehensively investigated for the first time. Spike current occurs when input voltage crosses zero, becomes a noise source, and causes severe common mode emission issues. A generation mechanism for electromagnetic interference (EMI) is presented to investigate the EMI problem caused by zero-crossing issue, and a noise spectrum due to this issue is predicted by a theoretical analysis based on the Fourier coefficient of an approximate spike current waveform. Furthermore, a noise reduction method is proposed and then improved to reduce the spike current. Experimental measurements are implemented on a GaN-based totem-pole bridgeless PFC converter, and the spike current can be effectively suppressed through the proposed method. Furthermore, the noise spectrums measured without and with the reduced zero-crossing spike current are compared. Experimental results validate the analysis of the noise spectrum caused by the zero-crossing spike current issue.

A zero voltage switching (ZVS) three level auxiliary resonant commutated pole inverter (ARCPI) is presented for high power GTO inverters. The concept of ARCP for two level inverter is extended to the three inverter. The proposed auxiliary commutation circuit consists of one resonant inductor and two bi-directional switches, which provides ZVS condition to the main devices without increasing device voltage or current stresses. The auxiliary device operates with zero current switching (ZCS) which enables use of the low cost thyristors. The proposed ARCPI can handle higher voltage and higher power (1-10MVA) comparing to the two level one. Operation and analysis of the ARCPI are illustrated and the features are compared o those of the snubber circuit incorporated three level inverter. Experimental results with 10kW, 4kHz prototype are presented to verify the principle of operation. (author). refs., figs., tab.

In this paper, new design equations based on the pole-zero analysis for multi-layered interdigital stripline linear group delay bandpass filter with tap input ports are presented. As a design example, a four-pole group delay filter with center frequency of 2.14GHz, bandwidth of 160MHz, and group delay variation of $\pm$0.1nS for LTCC technology or multilayered PCB technology is designed. In the design process, it is not necessary to simulate the entire structure, as the simulation of half structures is sufficient. Good results can be attained after the optimizing process was performed three times using the proposed equations and a commercial EM simulator.

If the three phases are not balanced, the current in neutral line is not zero. Then, the induced voltage can be generated In communication line. The KEPCO's rule about unbalanced current in single electric pole is a twenty percent of phase current. But the unbalanced current in double electric pole can't decide the rule because there are many different views. This paper develops the calculation and analysis technique of neutral current in single electric pole and double electric pole using equivalent circuit analysis, vector analysis and EMTP simulation.

Estimating ship motion is difficult because it take place in complex environments.. Estimating ship motion is an important factor in ensuring the safety of ship, so accurate estimates are needed. Existing motion-related studies compare the apparent motion of the model acquired and the reference model by experimenting with the ship motion on a particular alignment, making it difficult to intuitively estimate the hull motion. This study introduces the concept of estimating the characteristics of ship motion as a transfer function through pole-zero interpretation and frequency response analysis by applying the method of transfer function of Linear-Time Invariant system. Ship motion analysis model using Linear-Time Invariant system is consist with 1) wave as input signal 2) ship motion as output signal 3) hull defined as black box. This model can be defined by numericalizing the ship motion as a transfer function and is expected to facilitate the characterization of the ship motion through pole-zero analysis and frequency response analysis.

Using a simplified high-frequency small-signal equivalent circuit model for BSIM3 MOSFET, the fully differential two-stage folded-cascode CMOS operational amplifier is analyzed to obtain its small-signal voltage transfer function. As a result, the expressions for dc gain, five zero frequencies, five pole frequencies, unity-gain frequency, and phase margin are derived for op amp design using design equations. Then the analysis result is verified through the comparison with Spice simulations of both a high speed op amp and a low power op amp designed for the $0.13{\mu}m$ CMOS process.

The gate bias dependence of kink phenomenon with a large deviation from the resistance circle in Smith chart is observed in the frequency response of $S_{11}$-parameter for large multi-finger RF MOSFETs. For the first time, this bias dependence is analyzed by measuring magnitude and phase of $S_{11}$-parameter, input resistance and input capacitance. As a result, $V_{gs}$ dependent $S_{11}$-parameter is largely changed by the magnitude of input capacitance as well as dominant pole and zero frequencies of input resistance. At $V_{gs}=0V$, the kink phenomenon occurs in the high frequency region because of very small phase difference of $S_{11}$-parameter and high pole frequency of input resistance. However, the kink phenomenon at higher $V_{gs}$ is generated in the low frequency region owing to large phase difference and low pole frequency.
