Flexible Power Electronic Transformer for Power Flow Control Applications

This paper proposes a Flexible Power Electronic Transformer (FPET) for the application in the micro-grids. The low frequency transformer is usually used at the Point of Common Coupling (PCC) to connect the low voltage grid and utility network to each other. The conventional 50Hz transformer results in enhanced low voltage-grid power management system during grid-connected operation. In this pap...

Filtering Power Divider/Combiner Based on Half Mode Substrate Integrated Waveguide (HMSIW) Technology for High Power Applications

A filtering power divider/power combiner based on half mode substrate integrated waveguide technology for high power applications is proposed. This design includes one half mode substrate integrated waveguide cavity, one matched load, and four sections of quarter-wavelength transmission lines. The high isolation between output ports is obtained by combining the half mode substrate integrated wa...
