The grid conditions determine what the output voltage of a grid connected power converters should be. Control of the output voltage of these power converters is by this condition not possible. The power converters are however, not directly connected to the grid. The conventional method to interface these converters to the grid is through filters [1,2]. The duty of the filter is to reduce the cu...

Dense satellite constellations recently emerged as a prominent solution to complementing terrestrial networks in attaining true global coverage. As such, analytic optimization techniques can be adopted rapidly maximize the benefits of such networks. This letter presents framework that relies on two primary tuning parameters optimize uplink performance; (i) constellation altitude and (ii) antenn...

This paper’s aim is to present a tuning approach for full Two-Degree-of-Freedom (2-DoF) PI and PID controllers for First-Order-Plus-Dead-Time (FOPDT) and Second-OrderPlus-Dead-Time (SOPDT) controlled processes. The tuning relations provide the value of the typical parameters for a PID controller plus the set-point weighting factor, being these relations driven by just one single design paramete...

High-performance data processing algorithms for phase-shifting interferometry accommodate adjustment errors in the phase shift increment as well as harmonic distortions in the interference signal. However, a widely overlooked error source is the combination of these two imperfections. Phase shift tuning errors increase the sensitivity of phase estimation algorithms to second-order and higher ha...

Most theories of navigation rely on the concept of a mental map and compass. Hippocampal place cells are neurons thought to be important for representing the mental map; these neurons become active when the animal traverses a specific location in the environment (the "place field"). Head-direction cells are found outside the hippocampus, and encode the animal's head orientation, thus implementi...
