A New High-Performance Current-Mode Fuzzy Membership Function Circuit And Its Application, Turgay Temel Jan 2015

A New High-Performance Current-Mode Fuzzy Membership Function Circuit And Its Application, Turgay Temel

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

A new current-mode fuzzy-membership function circuit is proposed. The circuit has a very compact and simple architecture based on the simultaneous use of winner- and loser-take-all topologies. The circuit has also the advantage of easily adjusting generated membership function characteristics such as center or mean and width with a straightforward application of respective input currents. It is shown that the new circuit outperforms previous counterparts in terms of speed, power consumption, layout area, and robustness to variations in design parameters and errors. As an application, a fuzzy-classifier is designed with a new membership circuit as a seven fuzzy level controller.

Energy Economy In Regulated And Market-Based Power System: Case Study In Serbia, Mileta Zarkovic, Ivan Skokljev

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

This study presents a possible process of simulating power plant generation planning. The process combines expected overall industry costs, associated cost uncertainty, and expected CO$_{2}$ emissions for different generations, variations of future fossil fuel costs, carbon prices, plant investment costs, and demand, including price elasticity impacts. Uncertainty in the decision stems from the elasticity of prices of fuel and electricity. The aim of this paper is to apply fuzzy numbers to power generation planning and to use a Monte Carlo simulation to check. Simulations are demonstrated through a case study of an electricity industry with coal and lignite, combined cycle …
