this paper presents a grid connected photovoltaic system, which acts as both power generator and active power filter (apf), based on flying capacitor multicell (fcm) converter. increase in the number of output voltage levels, natural self-balancing of flying capacitors and dc link voltage and lower power rating of components are the main futures of fcm converter compared with conventional multi...

In this study oesophageal photoplethysmograph data from eight patients under positive pressure ventilation was analysed to test the hypothesis that the modulations created by the ventilation in the AC PPG single could be used to estimate the venous saturation. In order to estimate the instantaneous arterial and venous saturation Smoothed-pseudo WignerVille Distribution (SPWVD) was utilised. The...

This paper presents a new control method for simultaneous compensation of instantaneous reactive power and current harmonics by parallel active filters (PAFs). Reference compensating currents of PAF are calculated using the subtraction of instantaneous power from its average value. In this way, it is possible omitting high/low pass filter(s) from the control circuit of PAF, which usually result...

in this paper some new applications of empirical mode decomposition (emd) and hilbert spectrum in seismic ground-roll attenuation, random noise attenuation and spectral decomposition are introduced. hilbert spectrum is a time-frequency representation for hilbert-huang transform which is obtained by combination of instantaneous frequency (if) concept and intrinsic mode function of empirical mode...

When predicting the overall loudness of time-varying sounds, it is necessary to use a function which calculates an overall value based on instantaneous loudness. Although N5 and LL(P) correlate for many sounds, their concepts are rather different. N5 is the loudness which is exceeded in five percent of the time, thus it is an ordinal value. LL(P) is the energetic mean of all instantaneous loudn...
