Electro Static Discharge Testing on Meteosat 3rd Generation Photovoltaic Assembly

Managing Photovoltaic Generation Effect On Voltage Profile Using Distributed Algorithm

In this paper, a distributed method for reactive power management in a distribution system has been presented. The proposed method focuses on the voltage rise where the distribution systems are equipped with a considerable number of photovoltaic units. This paper proposes the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMMs) approach for solving the optimal voltage control problem in a distri...

Meteosat Second Generation Cirrus Detection Algorithm MeCiDA

The Meteosat Third Generation Infrared Sounder

This paper considers only the IRS mission, for which the highest priority is on atmospheric dynamics in support to Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) at regional and global scales. This will be achieved through the provision of Atmospheric Motion Vectors (AMV), to be extracted from tracking of horizontally and vertically resolved water vapour patterns, retrieved from the hyperspectral radiances...

Electro-Static Discharge Protection Design for V-Band Low-Noise Amplifier Using Radio Frequency Junction Varactor

The RF junction varactors are employed as electro-static discharge (ESD) protection devices and co-designed with 60GHz low-noise amplifier (LNA) fabricated in a 65-nm CMOS technology. The junction varactor acts as an ESD diode to bypass ESD current during ESD zapping, and also utilized as a capacitor to be a part of input matching network of the LNA in normal RF operation. By transmission line ...

Theory of Electro-static Charges

problem has been with the industry almost since the first power press. Since that time, nearly every conceivable theory developed for control of the problem has been tried with varying degrees of success. For many years, it has been the cause of variations in printing quality and volume of output over which little control has been exercised. Finally, it was accepted as a necessary evil in the i...
