Decoupling capacitor location in DC power bus design is a critical design choice for which proven guidelines are not well established. The mutual inductance between two closely spaced vias can have a great impact on the coupling between an IC and a decoupling capacitor. This coupling is a function of the spacing between the IC and capacitor, and spacing between power and ground layers. The impa...

The optimal shunt capacitor allocation problem is the determination of the location and sizes of the capacitor to be placed in distribution networks in an optimal manner to reduce the energy losses and peak power losses of the networks. This paper shows the capability of Genetic Algorithm (GA) technique in solving such problem. It includes a study done in a real distribution networks in Muscat,...

In this paper we discuss layout generation of on-chip matched capacitors with accurate capacitance ratios. Capacitor sizing and placement suitable for design of error insensitive capacitance ratios are discussed including a proposed algoritm for common-centriod placement. Also, a regular layout structure is proposed that is suitable for implementation of capacitors with well matched capacitance...

With wide spread use of sensitive nonlinear electronic devices the switching transients are capable of degrading the quality of power. Utilities often switch the shunt capacitor banks to cope up with sagging voltage levels, thereby generating transients, which travel into the network of end users. Capacitor switching can cause over voltage, resonance and in advert tripping of Adjustable Speed D...

Optimal capacitor placement, considering power system loss reduction, voltage profile improvement, line reactive power decrease and power factor correction, is of particular importance in power system planning and control. The distribution system operator calculates the optimal place, number and capacity of capacitors based on two major purposes: active power loss reduction and return on invest...

In present day's energy conveyance frameworks is experiencing serious force quality issues. These force quality issues incorporate high responsive force trouble, music momentums, burden unbalance, unreasonable unbiased current and so forth. A few solutions for these force quality issues are accounted for in the writing. A gathering of controllers together called Custom Power Devices (CPD), whic...

Recently, the integration of distributed generators (DGs) in radial distribution systems (RDS) has been widely evolving due to its sustainability and lack pollution. This study presents an efficient optimization technique named honey badger algorithm (HBA) for specifying optimum size location capacitors different types DGs minimize total active power loss network. The Combined Power Loss Sensit...

One of the most important methods in loss reduction and controlling the voltages of distribution systems is the utilization of the fixed and switched capacitors. To do this, real modeling of the system in large scale unbalanced or balanced for both radial and meshed configurations are required. In this paper, a new technique for finding the optimal values of the fixed and switched capacitors in...
