This paper proposes HNF approach for the applications of AGC of a hydro-thermal and Thermal-thermal systems in a power system deregulated environment. It makes an attempt to provide a new practical AGC model with Generation Rate Constraints to fulfill the needs of modern restructured interconnected systems in a Deregulated Environment.

This paper presents a phase-locked loop (PLL) based resonator driving integrated circuit (IC) with automatic parasitic capacitance cancellation and gain control. The PLL consisting of phase frequency detector (PFD), filter, voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) makes the to be locked at resonant frequency. is modeled by Butterworth–Van Dyke equivalent model motional resistance 72.8 kΩ, 6.19 fF, i...

The design of a two-channel compression hearing aid for persons with moderate sensorineural hearing losses with recruitment is described. The aid applies slow-acting automatic gain control (AGC) to the whole signal, and then splits the signal into two bands, with separate fast-acting (syllabic) AGC in each band. Trials evaluating the aid have shown that it allows speech in quiet to be understoo...

In this paper we analyze the automatic gain control (AGC) of an IEEE standard 802.11a compliant wireless local area network (WLAN) receiver. We show an efficient method to solve the problem of obtaining accurate and fast power estimates of the input signal for a huge dynamic range. In particular, we use a mixed signal approach, which has the further advantage of low power consumption. With thes...

The primary aim of the Automatic Generation Control (AGC) is to maintain system frequency and tie-line interchanges in a predestine limits by regulating the power generation of electrical generators, in case of fluctuations in the system frequency and tie-line loadings. This paper proposes a new online intelligent strategy to realize the control of multi-area load frequency systems. The propose...

This article considers different automatic control paradigms allowing for varying degrees of agent cooperation and autonomy. In order to support the automatic verification of safety-relevant software controllers, it proposes the use of a generic testing pattern which can be instantiated such as to allow to optimize automatic test data generation with respect to the specific targets of the appli...

Introduction Public concerns about the adverse environmental and health effects of using fossil fuels to generate electricity have led to a greater dependence on renewable sources of generation, particularly in Europe. Since most of these sources are inherently variable, the electric utility industry is facing new challenges for balancing demand and supply in the real-time operations and market...

This paper presents a new population based parameter free optimization algorithm as teaching learning based optimization (TLBO) and its application to automatic load frequency control (ALFC) of multi-source power system having thermal, hydro and gas power plants. The proposed method is based on the effect of the influence of teacher on the output of learners and the learners can enhance their k...

Man-in-The-Middle (MiTM) attacks present numerous threats to a smart grid. In MiTM attack, an intruder embeds itself within conversation between two devices either eavesdrop or impersonate one of the devices, making it appear be normal exchange information. Thus, can perform false data injection (FDI) and command (FCI) that compromise power system operations, such as state estimation, economic ...
