Digitally-tuned resolver converter
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2009 , Article)
Sinusoidal encoders provide electrical signals related to the sine and cosine of the mechanical shaft angle θ. An analog converter is described for the linearization of these signals and hence for linear computation of θ. ...
Developing Engineering Learning Objects Online Portal with LabVIEW and an Open Source Web Content Management System
(
ASEE
, 2009 , Article)
Learning objects (LOs) are independent chunks of knowledge normally used for instructional or learning purposes. LOs are normally reusable in the sense that they can be adopted and adapted for various learning and instructional ...
Long-term electric peak load forecasting for power system planning: A comparative study
(
King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals
, 2004 , Article)
A comparative study between two static estimation algorithms, namely least error squares (LES) and least absolute value (LAV) algorithm was presented. The proposed algorithm used the past history data for the load and the ...
Iterative learning control for variable frequency drives
(
IEEE
, 2008 , Conference Paper)
Variable Frequency Drives (VFD) are subject to various types of disturbances especially cyclical ones. These periodic disturbances are difficult to compensate by conventional controllers. Repetitive control can only ...
End-to-end outage probability of multihop transmission over lognormal shadowed channels
(
King Fahd University of Petroleum & Minerals
, 2003 , Article)
End-to-end outage probability evaluation of multihop wireless communication systems over lognormal shadowed channels is presented. Closed-form expression for the end-to-end signal to noise ratio of systems equipped with ...
A Resolver Angle Estimator Based on Its Excitation Signal
(
IEEE
, 2009 , Article)
A resolver generates a pair of signals proportional to the sine and cosine of the angular position of its shaft. A new low-cost method for converting the amplitudes of these sine/cosine transducer signals into a measure ...
Fuzzy system applications for identification of weak buses in power systems
(
King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals
, 2002 , Article)
In this paper a simple new algorit hm for identifying the weak buses in a power system for voltage stability study is presented. The proposed algorithm is based on fuzzy set theory. Two membership functions, one for voltage ...
A Discontinuous PWM Method for Balancing the Neutral Point Voltage in Three-Level Inverter-Fed Variable Frequency Drives
(
IEEE
, 2008 , Article)
The paper describes a new discontinuous carrier-based pulsewidth modulation (PWM) method for use in variable frequency drives (VFD) driven by three-level inverters. The method introduces three different switching patterns ...
A resolver converter based upon a novel open-Loop Technique
(
IEEE
, 2008 , Conference Paper)
The paper presents a novel technique for the determination of the angle from slowly-varying quadrature co-sinusoidal signals produced, for example, by position sensors. In the presented scheme applied to a resolver, the ...
An open-loop technique for angle determination from position encoders
(
IEEE
, 2008 , Conference Paper)
The paper presents a novel technique for the determination of the angle from low-frequency quadrature cosinusoidal signals produced, for example, by position sensors. In the presented scheme applied to a resolver, the ...
