The paper deals with the comparison study of harmonic detection methods for a shunt active power filter. The %THD and the power factor value at the PCC point after compensation are considered for the comparison. There are three harmonic detection methods used in the paper that are synchronous reference frame method, synchronous detection method, and DQ axis with Fourier method. In addition, the...

Due to high dynamic response, current-controlled pulse width modulated (PWM) voltage source inverters (VSI) are widely used in high performance AC drive system for Industrial applications. The main objective of current controller is to force the load current vector to follow the reference trajectory in the three-phase load. There are three types of current controllers used in voltage source inv...

The work reported in this paper started out as an investigation of the use of perfects in news items taken from newspapers in different European languages. The original goal was to see if one could identify anything like the "hot news" use of the perfect, as defined by McCawley (1971). To this end, we excerpted in a number of European languages with perfects or perfect-like categories the first...

In this paper, supply, process & temperature compensated, low voltage current reference for CMOS integrated circuits is presented. To minimize production cost, it uses no BJTs, external components or trimming procedures. This circuit is designed in Intel-22nm process and evaluated by computer simulations. The circuit behaviour is supported by theoretical expressions and is in agreement with sim...

Equationor table-based gate-level models (GLMs) have been applied in static timing analysis (STA) for decades. In order to evaluate the impact of statistical process variabilities, Monte Carlo (MC) simulations are utilized with GLMs for statistical static timing analysis (SSTA), which requires a massive amount of CPU time. Driven by the challenges associated with CMOS technology scaling to 45nm...
