The electrode parameters of the converter are optimized by conformal mapping. The optimal parameters are a half-wave voltage of (Vπ= 4.5 V) and a bandwidth of (Δf=1.4 GHz).A normalized transmitted power of 69.75% is obtained by FD-BMP and the output waveguide gap is 300 μm.展开更多

The system is composed of a machine vision device, a delta robot and a linear stage, and the concerned hardware, software and working methods were developed completely and verified successfully. During the phase of machine vision, the image of object was captured by camera, and then the process of smoothing filter, threshold algorithm and edge detection, was applied so as to obtain the edges of image. Finally, DV-GHT （Displacement Vector Generalized Hough Transformation） algorithm was used to recognize the center of multiple and arbitrary 2-D shapes objects. After the center of objects was recognized, the objects were delivered to the workspace of a delta robot by a motorized stage. Through the coordinate transformation between the camera and the robot system, the information of center can be converted to control commands for every working motors. Following, the delta robot picks up objects to the specified position sequentially by the trajectory planning and tracking controls. The software of C＋＋/CLI is used to achieve the phase of motion controls and the program of DV-GHT is used to detect and conduct the positions for four different characteristics of the objects simultaneously so as to indicate the delta robot to classify the objects successfully.展开更多

In this paper, steady-state analysis of the low power DBD is presented, considering the inevitable parasitic capacitance of the high-step transformer. The rectifier-compensated first harmonic approxi- mation （RCFHA） is applied to linearize the equivalent load circuit of DBD at low frequency and the derived expressions are accurate and convenient for the analysis and design of the power supply. Based on the proposed linear equivalent load circuit, the influence of transformer parasitic capacitance on the key parameters, including the frequency range and the applied electrode voltage, is discussed when the power is regulated with pulse frequency modulation （PFM）. Also, a design procedure is presented based on the derived expressions. A prototype is constructed according to the design results and the accuracy of the design is verified by experimental results.展开更多
