Maximum Reaction-Wheel Array Torque/Momentum Envelopes for General Configurations

Tuning of PV Array Layout Configurations for Maximum Power Delivery

In this paper, an approach for finding optimized layouts for connecting PV units delivering maximum array output power is suggested. The approach is based on considering the different varying parameters of PV units that might be extracted from a general two-diode model. These are mainly, solar irradiation, reverse saturation currents, ideality factors, series and shunt resistances in addition t...

Maximum packing for perfect four-triple configurations

ASKAP Array Configurations: Technical Studies

In this document we explore the possibilities for different array configurations for the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP) based on the requirements of the science case (Johnston et al. 2007). The configurations are constrained by the land available at the Murchison Radio Observatory, a mask of unsuitable locations within the site, and the budget for the backend computing. We...

Maximum Power Point Tracking Using Sliding Mode Control for Photovoltaic Array

In this paper, a robust Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) for PV array has been proposed using sliding mode control by defining a new formulation for sliding surface which is based on increment conductance (INC) method. The stability and robustness of the proposed controller are investigated to load variations and environment changes. Three different types of DC-DC converter are used in Maxim...

Iso-disparity Surfaces for General Stereo Configurations

This paper discusses the iso-disparity surfaces for general stereo configurations. These are the surfaces that are observed at the same resolution along the epipolar lines in both images of a stereo pair. For stereo algorithms that include smoothness terms either implicitly through area-based correlation or explicitly by using penalty terms for neighboring pixels with dissimilar disparities the...
