Capacitor voltage balancing using redundant states of space vector modulation for five-level diode clamped inverters
(
IEEE
, 2010 , Article)
A redundancy balancing technique for the five-level diode-clamped inverter is presented, which balances the four dc-link capacitor voltages at high modulation index and high power factor. The technique is based on dividing ...
An active damping technique for a current source inverter employing a virtual negative inductance
(2010 , Conference Paper)
A grid connected CSI requires a CL filter stage. In this work, the isolation transformer leakage inductance constitutes this filter inductance. This CL filter is lightly damped for efficiency constraints. Hence, it is ...
Inverter-based versus synchronous-based distributed generation; Fault current limitation and protection issues
(
IEEE
, 2010 , Conference Paper)
The contribution of distributed generation (DG) to network fault levels depends heavily on the technology employed. In the case of directly connected rotating machines the fault behavior is well established; with synchronous ...
Investigation of inter feeder power flow regulator: Load sharing mode
(2010 , Article)
The Inter feeder Power Flow Regulator (IFPFR) proposed in this paper consists of several voltage source inverters with common dc bus; each inverter is connected in series with one of different independent distribution ...
New voltage regulation techniques for low voltage radial feed PWM inverter based distributed networks
(2010 , Conference Paper)
Grid voltage rise problems occur, especially at light loads, due to the proliferation of distributed generation. Two techniques are proposed for regulating the voltage in low voltage radial networks when inverter based ...
Switched mode power supplies for charge-up, discharge and balancing dc-link capacitors of diode-clamped five-level inverter
(
IET
, 2010 , Article)
Inductor switch mode power supplies (SMPS) operated in a discontinuous inductor current mode are used to balance the dc-link capacitor voltages of a diode-clamped five-level inverter. The SMPS concept is extended to charge ...
Utility-based uplink scheduling algorithm for enhancing throughput and fairness in relayed LTE networks
(
IEEE
, 2010 , Conference Paper)
Relaying is one of the key techniques considered by the 3GPP LTE-Advanced as part of 4G cellular technologies, aiming to increase the coverage and capacity of the network especially for the edge nodes. In this work, we ...
On the group proportional fairness of frequency domain resource allocation in L-SC-FDMA based LTE uplink
(
IEEE
, 2010 , Conference Paper)
Localized single carrier frequency division multiple access (L-SC-FDMA) has been selected as the uplink transmission scheme in 3GPP Long Term Evolution (LTE) due to its low Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR) over OFDMA in ...
Cognitive relaying in wireless sensor networks: Performance analysis and optimization
(
IEEE
, 2010 , Conference Paper)
The anticipated increase in the density of the deployed wireless sensor networks calls for spectrum sharing through unlicensed access to licensed spectrum. The key technology for spectrum sharing in this scenario is cognitive ...
Preparing and educating the Arab Qatari engineer of 2030
(
American Society for Engineering Education
, 2010 , Conference Paper)
This paper addresses the issue of adapting Engineering Education to a changing situation in Qatar, a small country that is part of the Arab Gulf Cooperation Council. It presents the framework for a national project planned ...
