This paper investigates the design,analysis and simulation of a Distribution-STATic COMpensator(D-STATCOM) for non-linear load Composite(harmonic and reactive power) compensation on a three phase bus network. Composite compensation is achieved by implementation of a p-q controller, which monitors the load current and injects equal amplitude and opposite phase compensation currents to neutralize...

For the microgrids to operate securely, distributed generators must be able interact with one another without experiencing any communication delays or noise. To develop a more effective economic dispatch strategy, this research focuses on noise’s effect performance of an islanded microgrid. Three different strategies, Lagrange, firefly, and artificial bee colony algorithms, are compared for opt...

This paper presents a novel compensation parameter design methodology and maximum efficiency tracking (MET) control strategy for inductive power transfer (IPT) system with an inductance double capacitance-series (LCC-S) topology. The parameters of conventional IPT converter are designed the required output voltage by considering fluctuation ranges battery coupling coefficient, but without chara...

A feedback linearisation control scheme is proposed an implemented on a real solar power plant. This structure is based on a non-linear control methodology combined with a recurrent neural predictor. Given model plant mismatches it is crucial to provide the control system with an off-set compensation, being an internal model controller strategy used for this purpose. Experimental results collec...

By quick technological advancements in industrial control processes, major industries demand higher power quality. According to IEEE 1159-1995 standard, any problems in voltage, current or freq‌ue‌ncy that lead to the error or malfunctions in electrical equipment are considered as a power quality problem. Among the power quality phenomena, voltage sag has been an important problem for power sys...

When power systems are expanded and connected together with weak tie lines, the low-frequency oscillations are increased and the stability margin of the power system decreases. Therefore, when designing the transmission system to be used, it is necessary to maintain the dynamic stability of the power system, and to make sure to have the most possible stability margin. SSSC is a FACTS device con...

Phase transfer functions of power-line channels often show sharp and periodic variation synchronous to the (double of) mains frequency. This is a result of impedance change of nonlinear devices connected to the power-lines. This manuscript proposes a phase estimation strategy for phase compensation at a receiver under such environment. In the proposed method, phase estimates are calculated usin...

In a never-ending effort to reduce power consumption and gate oxide thickness, the integrated circuit industry is constantly developing smaller power supplies. Furthermore, in an effort to reduce costs and integrate analog and digital circuits onto a single chip, MOS devices are used in the weak inversion region or the subthreshold inversion region to minimize dc source power. A feasible config...
