The buck converter and bi-directional converter connected with common dc bus, that dc bus connected different loads with constant dc voltage. The hysteresis current controller has implemented in inver...

A 2-digit higher radix analog-to-digital converter (ADC) circuit consisting of a combination of a pipelined ADC and a set of cascaded current comparator cell has been proposed. The ADC generates multi-valued logic outputs rather than the conventional binary output system. The design is implemented using 0.25μm CMOS process. The performance analysis of the design shows desirable performance para...

Abstract: This paper presents an on-board vehicular battery charger that integrates bidirectional AC/DC converter and DC/DC converter to achieve high power density for application in electric vehicles (EVs). The integrated charger is able to transfer electrical energy between the battery pack and the electric traction system and to function as an AC/DC battery charger. The integrated charger to...

Simulation of light propagation within nematic liquid-crystal (LC) devices is considered, of which the director is aligned normal to the z axis. A three-dimensional full-vector finite-difference beam propagation method for an anisotropic medium is presented and an alternating direction implicit scheme is adopted. Simulations of light propagation in a bulk polarization converter, a waveguide wit...

This paper presents design and implementation of an Integrated Boost Resonant Converter (IBR) incorporated with Hybrid Frequency Modulation for photovoltaic applications. The designed Integrated Boost Resonant Converter employs a unique modulation method for extending the input range of Pulse-Width Modulation, low component count, galvanic isolation, simple control and high efficiency across a ...

Conventional energy sources are fast depleting due to poor conservation practises and excessive usage while the world’s energy demands are growing by minute. Additionally, the cost of producing conventional energy is rising also leading to an increase in harmful environmental pollution. Hence, there is a need to look at alternative energy sources such as sun, water and wind. Photovoltaic (PV) i...

This work introduces an integrated MPC controller. The integrated MPC consists of three modules: an MPC control module, an online identification module and a control monitor module. The three modules work together coherently in real-time; it can perform automatic controller commissioning and automatic controller maintenance. In MPC commissioning, the online identification module and the MPC con...
