A new fuzzy maximum power point tracker (MPPT) for photovoltaic systems is proposed. Fuzzy controller input parameters dI dP , ) dI dP ( D and variation of duty cycle ( DC D ) are used to generate the optimal MPPT converter duty cycle, such that solar panel maximum power is generated under different operating conditions. A photovoltaic system including a solar panel, a fuzzy MPP tracker and...

Usually reservoir computing shows an exponential memory decay. This letter investigates under which circumstances echo state networks can show a power law forgetting. That means traces of earlier events can be found in the reservoir for very long time spans. Such a setting requires critical connectivity exactly at the limit of what is permissible according to the echo state condition. However, ...

This thesis details the design and simulation of a low-voltage, low-power rail-to-rail input and output high speed operational amplifier. Various input and output structures from the literature are analyzed. Intermediate stage concerns, compensation, current distribution, and power supply, common-mode voltage, and temperature variations are addressed. Considerable time is spent analyzing variou...

In AC-DC power conversion, active front end rectifiers offer several advantages over diode rectifiers such as bidirectional power flow capability, sinusoidal input currents and controllable power factor. A digital finite control set model predictive controller based on fixed-point computations of an active front end rectifier with unity displacement of input voltage and current to improve dynam...

This paper introduces a peculiar approach of designing Static Random Access Memory (SRAM) memory cell in Quantum-dot Cellular Automata (QCA) technique. The proposed design consists of one 3-input MG, one 5-input MG in addition to a (2×1) Multiplexer block utilizing the loop-based approach. The simulation results reveals the excellence of the proposed design. The proposed SRAM cell achieves 16% ...

Abstract: In this paper, we aim to design and propose a novel structure for all-opticalhalf subtractor based on the photonic crystal. The structure includes two optical switches,one power splitter, and one power combiner. The optical switches are made of theresonant rings which use the nonlinear rods for dropping operation. The footprint of thedesigned structure is about...

This paper presents a deterministic approach for performance assessment of different province’s road safety level at Iran. A data envelopment analysis (DEA) model considering undesirable input and output indices and a multivariate statistical method, principle component analysis (PCA) are used in this paper, while previous studies do not use composite PCA-DEA method and undesirable input and ou...
