WIGGS, JAMES H. Comparison of Ad8pti ve Algorithms for Cancellation of Harmonic Noise on Distribution Power Lines. (Under the direction of Dr. H. J. Trussell.) Adaptive digital filters have been used for many years in speech processin~ echo cancellation, and other areas. The ability of adaptive filters to remove harmonic noise from a contaminated signal, especially when the noise is slowly vary...

This study provides an analysis of the dynamics of fixed-size directed Boolean networks governed by generalizations of elementary cellular automata rules 22 and 126, under a power-law distribution of parent nodes and a popularity parent assignment. The analysis shows the existence of a two-piece chaotic attractor for smaller values of the power-law parameter which evolves into a “cloud”-like at...

scaling challenges and limitations of conventional silicon transistors have led the designers to apply novel nano-technologies. one of the most promising and possible nano-technologies is cnt (carbon nanotube) based transistors. cnfet have emerged as the more practicable and promising alternative device compared to the other nanotechnologies.  this technology has higher efficiency compared to t...

This article considers the low-observability state estimation problem in power distribution networks and develops a decentralized algorithm leveraging matrix completion methodology. Matrix has been shown to be an effective technique that exploits low dimensionality of system measurements recover missing information. can utilize approximate (linear) load flow model, or it used with no physical m...
