Robust Precoding For MIMO OFDM With Insufficient CP MIMO channels arising from the use of multiple antennas at both transmitter and receiver have received continuously attention because they provide an signicant increase in capacity over the single input single output...
Channel Independent Precoding Design For MIMO OFDM With Insufficient CP In OFDM system, the frequency domain channel is divided into a set of parallel narrow subchannels, therefore eliminating or reducing the innate intersymbol interference (ISI) in the wideband...
Kalman Filter A Kalman filter is an optimal recursive data processing algorithm. One of the aspect of this optimality is that the Kalman filter incorporates all the information that can be provided to it. It processes all available measurements, regardless of their...
Power Electronics Interface Topologies The incorporation of solid-state power converters in wind energy conversion systems has increased over the past decade in order to improve control of the wind turbine and to improve its interconnection issues with the grid ....
Wind Turbine Topologies The variable speed wind turbines are commonly categorized into Indirect Drive Wind Turbines (IDWTs) and DDWTs. In IDWTs, the low-speed shaft is connected to the high-speed shaft through a gearbox, whereas DDWTs have a low-speed shaft that is...
Direct-Drive Wind Turbines The continuous growth in the energy demand around the globe, and the limited availability of fossil fuels along with the increased awareness in the society about the impact of these fossil fuels on the environment has resulted in exploring...
Beamforming and Source Tracking Once a source is detected and classified, the system will need to generate the trajectory of the moving source. Since only acoustic data is available for this purpose, a beamforming algorithm will need to be used to estimate the...
Estimation using camera data This section introduces state estimation using camera data and the control of a gimbal. First, we address the coordinate frame geometry and describe the gimbal and camera frames. Then, the projection of a 3-D object into the 2-D image...
Global Positioning System The global positioning system (GPS) is a navigation system supported by satellites that provides location information for objects on or near the surface of the earth. The navigation satellite timing and ranging (NAVSTAR) GPS has been...
Shortest Electrical Distance (SED) Based Method One method for moving generators whole is known as the shortest electrical distance (SED) method. The SED method, moves each external generator to a boundary bus via the shortest path in terms of electrical distance....
Generator Placement Methods In Network Reduction Introduction In network reduction, after generating the reduced network, the next step is to place the external power injections: generators and loads. In this work, the goal is to find a generator placement method...
Introduction Of Power System Planning Overview Power system planning and operation on a large network is a complicated engineering problem. Recently, the growing concerns about economics and the environment have made the problem interdisciplinary and more complicated....
Social Networks A social network is a structure made up of social actors interacting and interconnected through relationship among them. The science of studying the social interpersonal relationship is called as Sociometry. Sociogram refers to the...
Wireless Sensor Networks A Wireless sensor network is a mesh of wirelessly interconnected sensor nodes spanning a geographical area. Wireless sensor networks are deployed to sense the physical or environmental conditions such as temperature, humidity or for monitoring...
Modbus MODBUS was established in the late 1970’s as a protocol to be used with programmable logic controllers PLCs by Modicon. It works on RS-485 serial communications and due to its differential signaling it reduces errors in communication. There are several versions...
