Simultaneous Identification And Correction Of Measurement And Branch Parameter Errors, Mehdi Ahmadi Jirdehi, Mehrdad Tarafdar Hagh, Kazem Zare Jan 2014

Simultaneous Identification And Correction Of Measurement And Branch Parameter Errors, Mehdi Ahmadi Jirdehi, Mehrdad Tarafdar Hagh, Kazem Zare

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

The performance of the state estimation (SE) depends on the accuracy of the received measured data, as well as the parameter data of the power system. In this paper, a new algorithm is proposed for the simultaneous identification and correction of measurement and branch parameter errors (series and shunt admittances) in the power system SE problem. The proposed method uses Lagrange multipliers for the identification and correction of branch parameter errors without the need for a-priori specification of suspect parameter vectors. Erroneous measurements and branch parameter values can be corrected using the proposed method to estimate the measurement and branch …

Fuzzy Impedance And Force Control Of A Stewart Platform, Selçuk Ki̇zi̇r, Zafer Bi̇ngül

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

A new, simple, and effective control method is proposed for the position-based impedance and force control of a Stewart platform (SP). The control approach can be divided into 3 parts, namely position control in free space, impedance control in contact, and force control. An impedance filter is developed to achieve the desired behavior between the position and force. The gain of the filter is modified by a fuzzy logic proportional-integral-derivative controller. Kinematic and dynamic models of the SP are simulated in a MATLAB/Simulink environment. Several real-time experiments are conducted with the SP developed in our laboratory. The results of the …

A Low-Order Nonlinear Amplifier Model With Distributed Delay Terms, Ahmet Hayretti̇n Yüzer, Şi̇mşek Demi̇r Jan 2014

A Low-Order Nonlinear Amplifier Model With Distributed Delay Terms, Ahmet Hayretti̇n Yüzer, Şi̇mşek Demi̇r

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In this paper, a novel behavioral modeling technique for the characterization of memory effects of amplifiers is proposed. This characterization utilizes asymmetric intermodulation distortion (IMD) components, which are the result of a 2-tone excitation of a nonlinear amplifier. These asymmetric IMD components are represented basically by a power series, where each term in the series has its own time delay term. These time delay terms successfully justify the presence of asymmetry in the intermodulation components, which leads to the prediction of amplitude-to-amplitude and amplitude-to-phase distortions. The parameters of the model are extracted using 2-tone measurements. A 100-W peak power amplifier …

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research and Publications

This paper presents a lightweight data compression method for wireless sensor networks monitoring environmental parameters with low resolution sensors. Instead of attempting to devise novel ad hoc algorithms, we show that, given general knowledge of the parameters that must be monitored, it is possible to efficiently employ conventional Huffman coding to represent the same parameter when measured at different locations and time periods. When the data collected by the sensor nodes consists of integer measurements, the Huffman dictionary computed using statistics inferred from public datasets often approaches the entropy of the data. Results using temperature and relative humidity measurements show …

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research and Publications

The thermal tuning characteristics of a microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) buckled membrane exhibiting regions of both positive and negative stiffness is examined and analyzed using finite element method (FEM) simulation and through experimentation. The membranes are fabricated by releasing a silicon/silicon dioxide (Si/SiO2) laminated membrane from a silicon on insulator (SOI) wafer. The difference in thermal expansion coefficients between Si and SiO2 induces a compressive stress in the SiO2 layer causing out-of-plane buckling of the membrane. This structure is found to have positive and negative stiffness regions when actuated with a transverse force. It is demonstrated that the …
