High Availability in the Advanced Automation System
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Advanced Automation System is a distributed real-time system under development by Loral's Federal Systems Company for the US Federal Aviation Administration. The system is intended to replace the present en-route and terminal approach US air traac control computer systems. High availability of air traac control services is an essential requirement for the system. This paper discusses the general approach to fault-tolerance adopted in AAS, by reviewing some of the questions which were asked during the system design, various alternative solutions considered, and the reasons for the design choices made.

This paper proposes a new two-stage inverter based on transformer-less high gain DC-DC converter for energy conversion of a photovoltaic system. The designed system consists of a high gain DC-DC converter cascaded with a three-phase inverter. The proposed DC-DC converter has a simple structure, and it has one switch in its structure. The output voltage of the DC-DC converter supplies DC source ...
متن کاملAn Advanced State Estimation Method Using Virtual Meters
- Power system state estimation is a central component in energy management systems of power system. The goal of state estimation is to determine the system status and power flow of transmission lines. This paper presents an advanced state estimation algorithm based on weighted least square (WLS) criteria by introducing virtual meters. For each bus of network, except slack bus, a virtual meter...
