Unknown Input Observer Based On Lmi For Robust Generation Residuals, SOUAD TAHRAOUI, ABDELMADJID MEGHABBAR, DJAMILA BOUBEKEUR 2017 TÜBİTAK

Unknown Input Observer Based On Lmi For Robust Generation Residuals, Souad Tahraoui, Abdelmadjid Meghabbar, Djamila Boubekeur

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In this paper, a method of generating robust residuals of a linear system, subject to unknown inputs, is proposed. The impact of disturbances and uncertainty may create difficulties at the decision stage of diagnosis (false alarm); this has resulted in the use of a robust observer for the unknown inputs to ensure the robustness of the system based on the unknown input observer with an optimal decoupling approach, which has a sensitivity that is minimal to unknown inputs and maximal to faults. A generation of robust residuals is then transformed into a problem of robustness/sensitivity constraints (H$_{\infty }$, H and …

Adaptive fuzzy tracking control using feedback linearization is employed for the current dynamic inner loop to overcome the drawbacks of the conventional method. The proposed controller can ensure proper tracking of the reference current and impose desired dynamic behavior, giving robustness and insensitivity to parameter variations. Adaptive fuzzy proportional-integral control is applied to the DC voltage dynamics outer …

The Impact Of Sampling Frequency And Amplitude Modulation Index On Low Order Harmonics In A 3-Phase Sv-Pvm Voltage Source Inverter, Qamil Kabashi, Myzafere Limani, Nebi Caka, Milaim Zabeli

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Nowadays, variable speed AC motors are widely used in industry and there are many speed adjustment techniques available. In the last decade there has been a trend towards the use of space vector PWM--IGBT inverters, due to easier digital realization and better utilization of the DC bus. Every power inverter produces a total harmonic distortion (THD) on its output that causes extra losses in stator of induction motors. By eliminating a number of low order voltage/current harmonics it is possible to reduce harmonic losses (stator losses) and mechanical oscillations in general. This could be achieved by implementing filters in the …

Application Of Singular Value Decomposition Algorithm For Implementing Power Amplifier Linearizer, RAJBIR KAUR, MANJEET SINGH PATTERH 2017 TÜBİTAK

Application Of Singular Value Decomposition Algorithm For Implementing Power Amplifier Linearizer, Rajbir Kaur, Manjeet Singh Patterh

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

A power amplifier (PA) is an integral component of all base stations in wireless communication systems and is used for converting DC power supply into radio frequency output power, but PAs are highly nonlinear. To achieve high power conversion efficiency, the PA is operated near saturation, which causes intermodulation products and hence results in nonlinear distortion. Digital predistortion (DPD) is a technique used to compensate for the nonlinear distortion without compromising its efficiency. Fourth Generation Long Term Evolution (4G LTE) systems use a carrier aggregation scheme to combine separate available bandwidths to deliver high data speeds. In this paper the …


Sotarm: Size Of Transaction-Based Association Rule Mining Algorithm, ASHA PANDIAN, JEBARAJAN THAVEETHU 2017 TÜBİTAK

Sotarm: Size Of Transaction-Based Association Rule Mining Algorithm, Asha Pandian, Jebarajan Thaveethu

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Mining of association rules tries to identify the existence of promising and fruitful relations among the items present in a database. The basic a priori algorithm suffers from multiple database scans, and if the database is large, then the time taken for scanning and generation of candidates is also large. The proposed algorithm attempts to reduce the repeated scanning of the whole database. Using this algorithm, scanning time and also the generation of subitems that are not frequent can be reduced. The former can be done by sorting the transaction records in descending order based on the size of transaction …


A Symmetrically Feeding Structure For Dual-Polarized Feeds, JINYUAN LIU, HUI DENG, BIN DING, XIAOLONG NIU 2017 TÜBİTAK

A Symmetrically Feeding Structure For Dual-Polarized Feeds, Jinyuan Liu, Hui Deng, Bin Ding, Xiaolong Niu

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In this paper, a symmetrically feeding structure for linear dual-polarized feeds for a compensated compact test range (CCR) and a corresponding wideband balun are put forward. $TM_{01}$ and $TE_{21} $ modes within the circular feeding waveguide are compressed due to its electrical balance. The polarization purity of feeds is then improved. Thus, the level of cross-polarization can be very low, which is the key requirement for CCR. A new wideband balun that acts as a power-divider and phase shifter with low amplitude unbalance and phase unbalance is designed for the new feeding structure. The return loss equation derived from an …

Implementation Of Svc Based On Grey Theory And Fuzzy Logic To Improve Lvrt Capability Of Wind Distributed Generations, Mohammad Mehdi Karami, Akbar Itami

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Due to the great absorption of reactive power after voltage drops caused by faults in network, the low-voltage ride through (LVRT) capability of squirrel cage induction generators (SCIGs) in wind farms is a great challenge. If a static VAR compensator (SVC) is installed at the point of common coupling (PCC) of a wind farm with a main network, it can improve the wind generation's LVRT capability with reactive power compensation. In the voltage control loop of a conventional SVC, the voltage actual value of the PCC is compared with the reference voltage value. This paper presents a method for implementation …


Probabilistic Data Fusion Model For Heart Beat Detection From Multimodal Physiological Data, TEHSEEN ZIA, ZULQARNIAN ARIF 2017 TÜBİTAK

Probabilistic Data Fusion Model For Heart Beat Detection From Multimodal Physiological Data, Tehseen Zia, Zulqarnian Arif

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Automatic detection of heart beats constitutes the basis for electrocardiogram (ECG) analysis and mainly relies on detecting QRS complexes. Detection is typically performed by analyzing the ECG signal. However, when signal quality is low, it often leads to the triggering of false alarms. A contemporary approach to reduce false alarm rate is to use multimodal data such as arterial blood pressure (ABP) or photoplethysmogram (PPG) signals. To leverage the correlated temporal nature of these signals, a probabilistic data fusion model for heart beat detection is proposed. A hidden Markov model is used to decode waveforms into segments. A Bayesian network …

Subsequently, a fast dynamical equation is derived from the original subsystem, where the solution is sought to approximate the corresponding ideal virtual/actual control inputs. Furthermore, the adaptation law of unknown parameters can be derived based on Lyapunov theory in the backstepping technique and there is no need to design a state …
