High-performance adaptive Perturb and observe MPPT technique for photovoltaic-based microgrids
(
IEEE
, 2011 , Article)
Solar photovoltaic (PV) energy has witnessed double-digit growth in the past decade. The penetration of PV systems as distributed generators in low-voltage grids has also seen significant attention. In addition, the need ...
Multiple-module high-gain high-voltage DCDC transformers for offshore wind energy systems
(
IEEE
, 2011 , Article)
Renewable energy sources, such as offshore wind farms, require high voltage gains in order to interface with power transmission networks. These conversions are normally made using bulky, complex, and costly transformers ...
A modified stationary reference frame-based predictive current control with zero steady-state error for LCL coupled inverter-based distributed generation systems
(
IEEE
, 2011 , Article)
This paper proposes a modified stationary reference frame-based predictive current controller with zero steady-state error for LCL coupled inverter-based distribution generation systems. Analytical expressions for the ...
Intervention in biological phenomena modeled by S-systems
(
IEEE
, 2011 , Article)
Recent years have witnessed extensive research activity in modeling biological phenomena as well as in developing intervention strategies for such phenomena. S-systems, which offer a good compromise between accuracy and ...
Fault detection and isolation of linear impulsive systems
(
IEEE
, 2011 , Article)
This technical note investigates the development of fault detection and isolation (FDI) filters for linear impulsive systems. The concept of an unobservability subspace is introduced for linear impulsive systems and an ...
On relay assignment in network-coded cooperative systems
(
IEEE
, 2011 , Article)
We consider in this paper relay assignment for cooperative systems with multiple two-way relay channels. The nodes corresponding to one two-way relay channel (henceforth referred to as pair) communicate with each other ...
Threshold-based relaying in coded cooperative networks
(
IEEE
, 2011 , Article)
In cooperative communications, error propagation at the relay nodes degrades the diversity order of the system. To combat that effect, we present a novel technique to control error propagation at the relays, which is ...
Joint statistics of partial sums of ordered exponential variates and performance of GSC RAKE receivers over rayleigh fading channel
(
IEEE
, 2011 , Article)
Spread spectrum receivers with generalized selection combining (GSC) RAKE reception were proposed and have been studied as alternatives to the classical two fundamental schemes: maximal ratio combining and selection combining ...
Time-frequency detection of slowly varying periodic signals with harmonics: Methods and performance evaluation
(2011 , Article)
We consider the problem of detecting an unknown signal from an unknown noise type. We restrict the signal type to a class of slowly varying periodic signals with harmonic components, a class which includes real signals ...
An efficient algorithm for instantaneous frequency estimation of nonstationary multicomponent signals in low SNR
(2011 , Article)
A method for components instantaneous frequency (IF) estimation of multicomponent signals in low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is proposed. The method combines a new proposed modification of a blind source separation (BSS) ...
