This paper presents a cooperative control which is applied to the secondary control of a microgrid controlled via a multi-agent scheme. Balancing power that leads to voltage and frequency stability in a microgrid is essential. The voltage and frequency regulations are limiting within the specified limits and conveying them to their nominal values. Limiting and conveying the voltage and frequenc...

In this paper, an attempt has been made to introduce a new control strategy including Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) and Diesel engine generator to control the voltage and frequency of autonomous microgrids. The proposed control strategy has multiple advantages over the recent control methods in microgrids. The proposed method applies the primary and secondary frequency control strategy...

Scattering of ambient radiation into receivers by secondary mirror supports can potentially degrade performance of radiotelescopes. A geometry for the support struts with slanted planar faces to keep scattering sidelobes close to the antenna pointing direction is analyzed. Scattering of the plane wave is within ~15o of boresight, while the spherical wave scattering is within ~1o of boresight. ...
