Cascaded solid-state transformer (SST) can be directly connected to the high-voltage distribution grid, and it has broad applications in the future smart grid, traction locomotive, and renewable energy integration. However, the reliability of the cascaded SST is seriously influenced by the DC voltage and power imbalance issues with this configuration. This paper presents a coordinated DC voltage control strategy for cascaded SST with star configuration, in which the average DC voltage and the balancing DC voltage are controlled separately without current sensors in dual active bridge (DAB) modules. This strategy not only reduces the cost and the complexity of the …

Channel Estimation For Ofdm-Im Systems, Yusuf Acar, Sultan Aldirmaz Çolak, Ertuğrul Başar
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing with index modulation (OFDM-IM) has been recently proposed to increase the spectral efficiency and improve the error performance of multicarrier communication systems. However, all the OFDM-IM systems assume that the perfect channel state information is available at the receiver. Nevertheless, channel estimation is a challenging problem in practical wireless communication systems for coherent detection at the receiver. In this paper, a novel method based on the pilot symbol-aided channel estimation technique is proposed and evaluated for OFDM-IM systems. Pilot symbols, which are placed equidistantly, allow the regeneration of the response of the channel so that pilot …

Qpsk-Dual Carrier Modulation For Ultra-Wideband Communication In Body Areanetwork Channels, Yasi̇n Karan, Sali̇m Kahveci̇
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Dual carrier modulation (DCM) using orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) improves the performance in multipath fading channels. In the literature DCM is proposed with 16-quadrature amplitude modulation (16QAM) for ultra-wideband (UWB) communication, with four bits per symbol to keep reliable high date transmission over longer distances. Body area network (BAN) standards address transmission reliability more than data rate. UWB is one of the physical layers proposed in BAN standards. In this study, DCM is used with quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) instead of 16QAM to have better performance in reliable transmission. The performance of QPSK-DCM is analyzed and compared with 16QAM-DCM, …

Adaptive Switching Gain Sliding Mode Control For Speed Regulation In Pmsms, Yanwei Huang, Yuqing Xie, Zheyi Liu
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
To suppress uncertainties caused by parametric variations or disturbances, an adaptive switching gain (ASG) is proposed for integral sliding mode control (ISMC) to regulate speed in permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSMs). According to system uncertainties, the ASG is designed to adjust the switching gain to suppress the chattering. The adaptive law is a positive value resulting in an increment of the switching gain when the tracking trajectory is outside the boundary layer. Conversely, it is negative with a decrement of the gain. Further, it improves a convergent rate by the function of the reciprocal of the tracking error when the …

Parallel Brute-Force Algorithm For Deriving Reset Sequences From Deterministic Incomplete Finite Automata, Uraz Cengi̇z Türker
Parallel Brute-Force Algorithm For Deriving Reset Sequences From Deterministic Incomplete Finite Automata, Uraz Cengi̇z Türker
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
A reset sequence (RS) for a deterministic finite automaton $\mathscr{A}$ is an input sequence that brings $\mathscr{A}$ to a particular state regardless of the initial state of $\mathscr{A}$. Incomplete finite automata (FA) are strong in modeling reactive systems, but despite their importance, there are no works published for deriving RSs from FA. This paper proposes a massively parallel algorithm to derive short RSs from FA. Experimental results reveal that the proposed parallel algorithm can construct RSs from FA with 16,000,000 states. When multiple GPUs are added to the system the approach can handle larger FA.
