microgrids are small-scale, low voltage (lv) power networks which employ renewable distribution energy resources (ders) with power electronic interfaces (peis). microgrids as single controlled units and active distribution networks require flexible control systems to ensure reliable and secure operation in different modes. these various operations of microgrid cause variations in voltage and fr...

This paper presents the design of neural networks compared with the conventional technique, a hysteresis controller for active power filter for three-phase four-wire electric system. A particular three-layer neural network structure is studied in some detail. Simulation and experimental results of the active power filter with both controllers are also presented to verify the feasibility of such...

Active magnetic levitation control system is an open-loop, unstable, complex, nonlinear and strong coupling control system, which can not achieve good control effect by using conventional PID controller. Therefore, the fractional order PID controller is used in active magnetic control system. The integer order of conventional PID controller is extended to fractional order range, thus there are ...

Two active fault diagnosis methods for additive or parametric faults are proposed. Both methods are based on controller reconfiguration rather than on requiring an exogenous excitation signal, as it is otherwise common in active fault diagnosis. For the first method, it is assumed that the system considered is controlled by an observer-based controller. The method is then based on a number of a...

in order to make the best utilization of a link in computer networks, active queue management (aqm) algorithms are generally used in a variety of methods. in this paper, a systematic control strategy based on self-scheduled h ∞, considering the dynamics of the window-based tcp flow, is proposed. then, the robustness of the designed controller to disturbance and parameter fluctuations of the pla...
