The wind turbine based on the doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) plays an increasingly important role in power generation. This is thanks to the benefits of these generators compared to other machines. In this paper, we present a new control strategy that limits variations and the transient overshoots in the DC bus voltage, which cause problems and sometimes leads to destruction of converter...

In this paper a novel optimal control strategy for energy management of an off-grid hybrid Stirling engine/Supercapacitor power plant is presented based on preliminary results proposed in [1]. An implementation of the control strategy is performed on a real time target that drives a dedicated testbed with a DC machine reproducing the behaviour of the thermodynamic Stirling Engine. The DC machin...

The paper investigates the small-signal stability of a 270V DC power system for a more electric aircraft, which employs switched reluctance generator technology and multiple distributed power electronic converters for flight control surface actuation, environmental control, and numerous DC and AC loads. Non-linear state space models for the complete system have been established and the eigenval...

This is the digital implementations of Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation (SPWM) generators based on analog circuits. The FPGA based SPWM generator is capable to operate at switching frequencies up to 3 MHz, thus it is capable to support the high switching frequency requirements of modern single-phase dc/ac power converters. The Existing design the switching operation is in 1 MHz. Additionally, ...

This paper describes a simple-yet-effective for a DC-DC buck converter with voltag (VMC). We propose to use a slope adjustable generator (TWG) which provides a line feed and an additional duty cycle modulatio comparing with the conventional VMC, the p significantly improves the line and load tran This triangular wave slope regulation sc compared to digital feed-forward control sch non-linear ca...

This paper investigates how to increase the efficiency of a photovoltaic/energy storage generation unit supplying dynamic loads by regulating and managing both the photovoltaic generator and the storage battery charge-discharge modes. The proposed photovoltaic/energy storage unit is proposed to supply an induction motor driven industrial pump with controlled speed and/or a DC motor driven water...

This paper presents a new Built-In Self-Test for Pipeline ADC’s. The test set is divided in 3 parts: Monotonicity test for basic functionality verification, DC gain of each stage and frequency bandwidth of each stage. The approach is based on the “Divide and conquer” principle. Adaptive schemes are used to get a precise analog timer, ramp generator and compensation for process variations.
