Finding minimum number of connecting lines is as important as locating power quality monitors (PQMs) for full observability of power system. Therefore, a PQM placement method should determine both optimum buses and lines, since utilities can make better decisions for monitoring of power system with this information. This paper attempted to propose a new method to locate the PQMs at various unob...

The higher frequency transient signals generated as a result of a power system fault or disturbance provide the basis for an alternative approach to power system containing connectors and cables result in unsuitable operation of the system. However one major challenge is the need to ensure that the transients to be neutralized by electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) issues and cabling routes. T...

In this paper, a model predictive control (MPC)-based coordinated scheduling framework for variable wind generation and battery energy storage systems (BESSs) is presented. On the basis of the short-term forecast of available wind generation and price information, a joint look-ahead optimization is performed by the wind farm and storage system to determine their net power injection to the elect...

Embedded systems are suggestive targets for code injection attacks in the recent years. Software protection mechanisms, and in general computers, are not usually applicable in embedded systems since they have limited resources like memory and process power. In this paper we investigate side channel characteristics of embedded systems and their applicability in code injection attack detection. T...

facts technology has considerable applications in power systems, such as; improving the steady stateperformance, damping the power system oscillations, controlling the power flow, and etc. statcom is oneof the most important facts devices used in the parallel compensation, enhancing transient stability andetc. since three phase fault is widespread in power systems, in this paper statcom is used...

This wireless transponder recovers power and a reference clock from an incident RF signal and returns data on a 900MHz carrier. A multi-stage voltage multiplier/rectifier converts the received low power RF signal to a useful DC voltage and stores the energy on a storage capacitor. The injection locking technique facilitates power efficient generation of a low phase noise 900MHz internal clock f...

The main purpose of this paper is to discuss the basic understanding of power quality in relation to the distributed generation. Due to considerable overlap between two technologies, disturbances affecting the power quality, which are mainly cause by the addition of Distributed Generation (DG) on the existing power system network. Injection of the DG into an electric power grid can affect the v...
