in this paper optimal torque control (otc) of stand-alone variable-speed small-scale wind turbine equipped with a permanent magnet synchronous generator and a switch- mode rectifier is presented. it is shown that with otc method in standalone configuration, power coefficient could be reached to its maximum possible value, i.e. 0.48. an appropriate control algorithm based on turbine characterist...

A general framework for local linear control of nonlinear nonautonomous systems using feedback strategies is considered. In particular, it is shown that a parametrically excited nonlinear system exhibiting chaos can be driven to a desired periodic motion or to a fixed point by designing a combination of a feed forward controller and a feedback time-periodic controller. The design of feedback co...

One goal in certain classes of networked multimedia applications, such as full-feedback remote control, is to provide end-to-end guarantees. To achieve guarantees, all resources along the path(s) between the resource(s) and sink(s) must be controlled. Resource availability is checked by the admission service during the call establishment phase. Current admission services control only network re...
