This paper proposes a novel extended-single-phase shift (ESPS) control strategy of isolated bidirectional full-bridge DC-DC converters (IBDCs) which are a promising alternative as a power electronic interface in microgrids with an additional function of galvanic isolation. Based on the mathematical models of ESPS control under steady-state conditions, detailed theoretical and experimental analy...

This paper proposes a new parameter identification approach for a single-phase induction motor (SPIM) whose parameters are usually obtained using several traditional techniques such as the DC, no-load, load and locked-rotor tests. It can be realized that the traditional techniques are complicated and require a higher cost with extra equipment. The proposal is based on using a Gauss particle swa...

Algebraic attacks on stream ciphers [9] recover the key by solving an overdefined system of multivariate equations. Such attacks can break several interesting cases of LFSR-based stream ciphers, when the output is obtained by a Boolean function, see [9– 11]. Recently this approach has been successfully extended also to combiners with memory, provided the number of memory bits is small, see [1, ...

Laser diode beam divergence is the main parameter for beam shaping and fiber optic coupling. Increasing the waveguide layer thickness is the conventional method to decrease the beam divergence. In this paper, the broadened asymmetric waveguide is introduced to decrease the divergence without increasing the optical power. The asymmetric waveguide was used to shift the vertical optical field to n...

As the number of specified bits of different test patterns varies widely in a deterministic test cube, all test patterns are concatenated to a data flow. The original test data can be re-divided by 2 to the power of integer according to the successful characteristics of the LFSR coding, whose length equals to the power of 2 in every division. In the new test approach, the numbers of specific bi...

Problem statement: Power consumption was one of the most challenging aspects to design low power wireless sensor nodes. The objectives of the study were to (i) Design low voltage, low power transmitters for wireless sensor nodes and (ii) Compare and analyze the performance of the transmitters. Approach: The transmitters employed direct digital modulation scheme to reduce the power consumption o...

The aim of our study was to examine the effects of 16.7 Hz electromagnetic-field exposure on pineal melatonin production in healthy humans. The study was based on comparing urinary 6-hydroxymelatonin sulfate (6-OHMS) levels of 108 male railway workers between leisure periods and days following the start of service on electrically powered engines (66 engineers) or working beneath transmission li...

The generalized Feistel structure (GFS) is a generalized form of the classical Feistel cipher. A popular version of GFS, called TypeII, divides a message into k > 2 sub blocks and applies a (classical) Feistel transformation for every two sub blocks, and then performs a cyclic shift of k sub blocks. Type-II GFS has many desirable features for implementation. A drawback, however, is its low diff...

In this study, a K-band complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) power amplifier was designed using low-power (LP) process to improve the integration of beamforming system. order reduce overall system size, 180° phase-shift function mounted. It in four-stage structure secure sufficient gain. addition, we propose way wideband characteristics by utilizing gains each four stages. The with 40...
