We consider the output feedback event-triggered control of an off-grid voltage source inverter (VSI) with unknown L ́ C filter dynamics and connected load in the presence of an input disturbance acting at the plant. Due to uncertain dynamics and unmodelled parameters in the L ́ C filter connected to the VSI, we use an adaptive observer to reconstruct the system’s states. The control mechanism is...

The idea of a microgrid is created by utilizing more diverse ac or dc distributed generation (DG) sources along with an energy storage system (ESS) and loads. The most efficient and reliable selection of ac and dc microgrids is a hybrid ac/dc microgrid. The hybrid microgrid largely overcomes the shortcomings of standalone ac or dc microgrids. A bidirectional interlinking converter (BIC) is util...

The weighted fuzzy c-mean clustering algorithm (WFCM) and weighted fuzzy c-mean-adaptive cluster number (WFCM-AC) are extension of traditional fuzzy c-mean algorithm to stream data clustering algorithm. Clusters in WFCM are generated by renewing the centers of weighted cluster by iteration. On the other hand, WFCM-AC generates clusters by applying WFCM on the data & selecting best K± initialize...

This paper presents a biologically inspired approach to two basic problems in modular self-reconfigurable robots: adaptive communication in self-reconfigurable and dynamic networks, and distributed collaboration between the physically coupled modules to accomplish global effects such as locomotion and reconfiguration. Inspired by the biological concept of hormone, the paper develops the adaptiv...

Networked control system is essentially a closed loop system with a plant and controller, with the plant located in a remote area and controlling done through data communication networks. This depicts a nonlinear plant with stochastic time delay. This paper offers comparison of three models one of which is a novel method. Fuzzy logic controller is the best option amongst the conventional contro...

The work presented in this paper proposes an approach to reduce the common mode voltage at the output of matrix converters when a direct torque control scheme is employed to drive a permanent magnet synchronous motor. A mathematical analysis of the common mode voltage at the output of matrix converters is firstly carried out which is then corroborated by simulation results. Based on this analys...

In this paper, a model reference adaptive sliding mode (MRASMC) using a radical basis function (RBF) neural network (NN) is proposed to control the single-phase active power filter (APF). The RBF NN is utilized to approximate the nonlinear function and eliminate the modeling error in the APF system. The model reference adaptive current controller in AC side not only guarantees the globally stab...
