The Self-Adaptive Alternating Direction Method For The Multiarea Economic Dispatch Problem, Yaming Ren, Shumin Fei, Haikun Wei
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
The alternating direction method has been used widely in the power systems field for solving the multiarea dispatch problem. However, experience with applications has shown that the convergence rate of the alternating direction method depends significantly on the selection of the penalty parameter of the linear consistency constraint. Typically, it is difficult to obtain the optimal penalty parameter in advance. In this paper, for the purpose of solving this problem, we propose centralized and distributed self-adaptive penalty parameter strategies that allow the value of the penalty parameter to increase or decrease based on the information from each iteration.

Hence the detection of the optimal quantization table is viewed as an optimization problem. The genetic algorithm (GA) is an attractive optimization tool by many researchers for this application due to its ability in dealing with complex problems. In spite of its advantages, the GA requires more computation time to achieve an optimal solution if it has an expensive fitness evaluation. This paper proposes a problem approximation surrogate model (PASM) for fitness approximation to assist the GA in optimizing the quantization …

Radio frequency (RF) subsampling is one of the established methodologies used by radio receivers to directly down-convert and digitize RF signals. In this paper, we propose a novel direct RF sampling method to find out the minimum sampling frequency for an evenly spaced spectrum comprising multiband RF signals. However, it can also be applied to nonuniformly spaced signals with slight modification. The proposed methodology describes a set of rules to achieve the lowest …

A Second-Order Volterra Filter-Based Nonlinear Clipping Detector, Jihwan Park, Joon-Hyuk Chang
A Second-Order Volterra Filter-Based Nonlinear Clipping Detector, Jihwan Park, Joon-Hyuk Chang
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this paper, we propose a novel nonlinear clipping detector based on the second-order Volterra filter for an acoustic echo canceller (AEC). Since the performance of the conventional AEC algorithm drastically deteriorates when nonlinear clipping occurs, the adaptive filter pauses adaptation during the nonlinear clipping periods to avoid unwanted divergence. These nonlinear clipping periods are detected in our method using the magnitude spectrum of the quadratic Volterra filter in lower frequency ranges. Through extensive computer-based simulation results considering an acoustic room environment and various clipping levels, it is found that the proposed approach is effective in detecting the nonlinear clipping …
