This paper describes the effect of power line inductance and smoothing capacitance on a single-phase AC power supply system. Voltage fluctuations were calculated when the three main types of smoothing circuit (capacitor input, choke input, and power factor correction types) were used and the magnitude of power line inductance and smoothing capacitance were changed. First, we show the difference in voltage fluctuation in the case of constant resistance and negative resistance in a DC-DC converter. Second, we show the waveforms for which the power line inductance affects the voltage fluctuation of the AC power supply system. Finally, we propose the boundary condition for the power line inductance affecting the voltage fluctuation of the AC power supply system and estimate AC power supply system stability.

High efficiency power feeding systems are effective solutions for reducing the ICT power consumption with reducing power consumption of the ICT equipment and cooling systems. A higher voltage direct current (HVDC) power feeding system prototype was produced. This system is composed of a rectifier equipment, power distribution unit, batteries, and the ICT equipment. The configuration is similar to a -48 V DC power supply system. The output of the rectifier equipment is 100 kW, and the output voltage is 401.4 V. This paper present the configuration of the HVDC power feeding system and discuss its basic characteristics in the prototype system.

This paper proposes the Gramian-preserving frequency transformation for linear discrete-time state-space systems. In this frequency transformation, we replace each delay element of a discrete-time system with an allpass system that has a balanced realization. This approach can generate transformed systems that have the same controllability/observability Gramians as those of the original system. From this result, we show that the Gramian-preserving frequency transformation gives us transformed systems with different magnitude characteristics, but with the same structural property with respect to the Gramians as that of the original system. This paper also presents a simple method for realization of the Gramian-preserving frequency transformation. This method makes use of the cascaded normalized lattice structure of allpass systems.
