      Chen J.; Yang L.; Wang W.; Yang H.-C.; Liu Y.; ... more authors ( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2019 , Article)
      In this correspondence paper, we consider the performance of a mixed free-space optical and radio frequency (FSO-RF) relaying system with energy harvesting in the existence of both atmospheric turbulence and pointing errors. ...
    • Deadbeat current control of qZS based grid-connected multilevel inverter 

      Trabelsi, M.; Abu-Rub, H.; Ben-Brahim, L.; Liu, Y. ( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2017 , Conference Paper)
      This paper proposes a Current Deadbeat Control (DBC) algorithm for a three-phase 9-cells qZS based Cascaded H-Bridge (CHB) inverter to ensure grid current supply with low THD. The studied topology is considered as a ...
    • General strategy to synthesize uniform mesoporous TiO2/Graphene/Mesoporous TiO2 sandwich-like nanosheets for highly reversible lithium storage 

      Li, W.; Wang, F.; Liu, Y.; Wang, J.; Yang, J.; ... more authors ( American Chemical Society , 2015 , Article)
      Uniform oxide deposition on graphene to form a sandwich-like configuration is a well-known challenge mainly due to their large lattice mismatches and poor affinities. Herein, we report a general strategy to synthesize ...
