Sol-gel synthesis of nanocrystalline Ni-ferrite and Co-ferrite redox materials for the rmoche mical production of solar fuels
(
Materials Research Society
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
In this contribution, we report the synthesis and characterization of NixFe3-xO4 and CoxFe3-xO4 redox nanomaterials using sol-gel method. These materials will be used to produce solar fuels such as H2 or syngas from H2O ...
Maximum throughput of a secondary user cooperating with an energy-aware primary user
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
This paper proposes a cooperation protocol between a secondary user (SU) and a primary user (PU) which dedicates a free frequency subband for the SU if cooperation results in energy saving. Time is slotted and users are ...
A stationary frame current control for inverter-based distributed generation with sensorless active damped LCL filter using Kalman filter
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Due to the large variety of renewable power sources, power electronics play an important role in energy conversion. Different power converter topologies are used to interface distributed power generation systems (DPGS) ...
Robust cooperative control reconfiguration/recovery in multi-agent systems
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, a reconfigurable control protocol for a linear multi-agent system seeking consensus in presence of actuator faults and saturations and environmental disturbances is investigated. Two controllers, namely the ...
A single-stage three-phase inverter based on cuk converters for PV applications
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents a new three-phase inverter based on the Cuk converter. The main feature of the proposed topology is that the energy storage elements, such as inductors and capacitors, can be reduced in order to improve ...
Multilinear sparse decomposition for best spectral bands selection
(
Springer Verlag
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Optimal spectral bands selection is a primordial step in multispectral images based systems for face recognition. In this context, we select the best spectral bands using a multilinear sparse decomposition based approach. ...
Modular multilevel structure of a high power dual active bridge DC transformer with stepped two-level output
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
This paper addresses the issues of dc voltage matching and dc fault protection in potential super-grids. An approach for high power dc-dc conversion is proposed and analyzed. A front-to-front connection of modular-multilevel ...
An LCL filter-based grid-interfaced three-phase voltage source inverter: Performance evaluation and stability analysis
(
Institution of Engineering and Technology
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Power converters in grid connection applications commonly employ Sinusoidal Pulse-Width Modulation (SPWM) technique. Passive filters are employed in order to attenuate the generated switching current ripples and reduces ...
Non-data-aided SNR estimation for QPSK modulation in AWGN channel
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) estimation is an important parameter that is required in any receiver or communication systems. It can be computed either by a pilot signal data-aided approach in which the transmitted signal ...
A general multicompartment lung mechanics model with nonlinear resistance and compliance respiratory parameters
(
IEEE
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we develop a nonlinear multicompartment lung mechanics model that accounts for nonlinearities in both the airway resistances and the lung compliances. Many models assume that the airway resistances for a ...
