A method of actively maintaining voltage margin in field oriented induction machine controllers is proposed. A voltage margin controller is developed that rejects dc link and load disturbances such that current regulation and field orientation is maintained. In addition, the voltage margin controller coupled with rotor flux oriented control is shown to provide maximum torque capability equivale...

power system blackouts have become a serious problem for electric utilities especially in recent years. different forms of system instability have emerged in recent blackouts, such as voltage instability and frequency instability. to counteract each form of system instability, special algorithms have been designed in the protection system, e.g. under frequency load shedding (ufls) and under vol...

This paper presents the different types of analysis such as noise, voltage, read margin and write margin of Static Random Access Memory (SRAM) cell for high-speed application. The design is based upon the 0.18 μm CMOS process technology. Static Noise Margin (SNM) is the most important parameter for memory design. SNM, which affects both read and write margin, is related to the threshold voltage...

Improving transient voltage stability is one of the most important issues that must be provided by doubly fed induction generator (DFIG)-based wind farms (WFs) according to the grid code requirement. This paper proposes adjusted DC-link chopper based passive voltage compensator and modified transient voltage controller (MTVC) based active voltage compensator for improving transient voltage stab...

This paper proposes a fully digital control of boost Power Factor Preregulators (PFPs) with input voltage estimation. The proposed solution is based on a conventional multi-loop structure for PFP with an internal current control and an outer voltage control possibly with fast dynamic response. Instead, input voltage sensing is avoided by using a conventional PI (proportional-integral) current r...

This paper presents a novel optimization based methodology to allocate Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS) devices in an attempt to improve the previously mentioned researches in this field. Static voltage stability enhancement, voltage profile improvement, line congestion alleviation, and FACTS devices investment cost reduction, have been considered, simultaneously, as objective funct...
