Grid Interconnected Photo Voltaic System Using Shunt Active Filter for Power Quality Improvement

10.11591/ijpeds.v9.i1.pp365-376
Kala Rathi , N. Rathina Prabha
Now-a-days, power generation and utilization became more complicated which further affects the economy of a country. The available non-renewable energy sources that supply the demanded power do not consider environmental challenges like global warming and pollution. This leads to the development of power generation based on Renewable Energy Resources (RES). These RES are connected to the grid through power electronic converters which offer countless power quality issues that must be rectified to deliver a quality power to the end users. The proposed work uses a three phase Voltage Source Inverter (VSI) based Shunt Active Power Filter (SAPF) fed by solar Photo Voltaic (PV) system to eliminate current harmonics at the source side of the grid. The output of the PV system is given to a boost converter along with self–lift single-ended primary-inductor converter (SEPIC) for supplying high voltage gain which is accompanied by a Perturb & Observe Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT).The main objective of this paper is to eliminate the current harmonics at the grid side using SAPF. Also, the proposed SAPF is used for exporting the power generated from PV to the grid. The overall system performance is validated with a help of MATLAB/SIMULINK.

10.11591/ijpeds.v9.i1.pp357-364
Ahmad Qurthobi , Anggita Bayu Krisna Pambudi , Dudi Darmawan , Reza Fauzi Iskandar
One of the common methods that developed to predict state of charge is open circuit voltage (OCV) method. The problem which commonly occurs is to find the correction parameter between open circuit voltage and loaded voltage of the battery. In this research, correlation between state of charge measurement at loaded condition of a Panasonic LC-VA1212NA1, which is a valve-regulated lead acid (VRLA) battery, and open circuit voltage had been analyzed. Based on the results of research, correlation between battery’s measured voltage under loaded condition and open circuit voltage could be approached by two linearization area. It caused by K v ’s values tend to increase when measured voltage under loaded condition V M < 11.64 volt. However, K v values would be relatively stable for every V M ≥ 11.64 volts. Therefore, estimated state of charge value, in respect to loaded battery voltage, would increase slower on V M < 11.64 volts and faster on other range.

Performance Analysis of H-bridge and T-Bridge Multilevel Inverters for Harmonics Reduction

10.11591/ijpeds.v9.i1.pp231-239
S. Usha , C. Subramani , A. Geetha
This paper deals with the design of cascaded 11 level H- bridge inverter. It includes a comparison between the 11 level H-bridge and T-bridge multilevel inverter. The cascaded inverter of higher level is a very effective and practical solution for reduction of total harmonic distortion (THD).These cascaded multilevel inverter can be used for higher voltage applications with more stability. As the level is increased the output waveform becomes more sinusoidal in nature. The inverter is designed using multicarrier sinusoidal pulse width modulation technique for generating triggering pulses for the semiconductor switches used in the device. Through this paper it will be proved that a cascaded multilevel H-bridge topology has higher efficiency than a T-bridge inverter, as whichever source input voltage is provided since input is equal to the output voltage. In T-bridge inverter, the output obtained is half of the applied input, so efficiency is just half as compared to H-bridge. The output waveform is distorted and has higher THD.  The simulation is performed using MATLAB /Simulink 2013 software.

Improvement of Garbage Management for NAND Memory System

10.11591/ijeecs.v9.i3.pp539-542
A. Thileepan , S. Ramachandran
Recent days increasing the use of flash memory device in embedded systems. Diverse qualities of NAND blaze recollections from hard circles include: a constrained square eradicate check, the inconceivability of set up refresh, and asymmetry in operation granularity. Along these lines different rubbish accumulation procedures for the NAND streak recollections have been proposed. In any case, existing rubbish accumulation procedures obstruct square wear leveling since they utilize a similar technique for both hot and icy information. In this paper, we propose effective junk accumulation and piece administration strategies to enhance piece wear leveling and trash gathering speed. Above all else, information is arranged into three sorts concurring to alteration recurrence - hot information, cool information, and warm data and distinctive sorts of information are put away in various pieces. The delete cost is figured considering information sort, and afterward junk gathering is performed for the hinders whose eradicate costs surpass the limit esteem. Furthermore, unique square records are made in RAM by information sort, and the squares are orchestrated in the request of their eradicate cost.

Lavanya Dhanesh , P. Murugesan
Scheduling of tasks based on real time requirement is a major issue in the heterogeneous multicore systemsfor micro-grid power management . Heterogeneous multicore processor schedules the serial tasks in the high performance core and parallel tasks are executed on the low performance cores. The aim of this paper is to implement a scheduling algorithm based on fuzzy logic for heterogeneous multicore processor for effective micro-grid application. Real – time tasks generally have different execution time and dead line. The main idea is to use two fuzzy logic based scheduling algorithm, first is to assign priority based on execution time and deadline of the task. Second , the task which has assigned higher priority get allotted for execution in high performance core and remaining tasks which are assigned low priority get allotted in low performance cores. The main objective of this scheduling algorithm is to increase the throughput and to improve CPU utilization there by reducing the overall power consumption of the micro-grid power management systems. Test cases with different task execution time and deadline were generated to evaluate the algorithms using  MATLAB software.

10.11591/ijpeds.v9.i1.pp25-32
N.S. Srivatchan , P. Rangarajan
Growing demand for clean and green power has increased penetration of renewable energy sources into microgrid. Based on the demand supply, microgrid can be operated in grid connected mode and islanded mode. Intermittent nature of renewable energy sources such as solar and wind has lead to number of control challenges in both modes of operation. Especially islanded microgrid throws power quality issues such as sag, swell, harmonics and flicker. Since medical equipments, semiconductor factory automations are very sensitive to voltage variations and therefore voltage sag in an islanded microgrid is of key significance. This paper proposes a half cycle discrete transformation (HCDT) technique for fast detection of voltage sag in an islanded microgrid and thereby provides fast control action using dynamic voltage restorer (DVR) to safe guard the voltage sensitive equipments in an islanded microgrid.  The detailed analysis of simulation results has clearly demonstrated the effectiveness of proposed method detects the voltage sag in 0.04 sec and there by improves the voltage profile of islanded microgrid.

10.11591/ijaas.v7.i1.pp38-45
Samarth Borkar , Sanjiv V. Bonde
Underwater images are prone to contrast loss, limited visibility, and undesirable color cast. For underwater computer vision and pattern recognition algorithms, these images need to be pre-processed. We have addressed a novel solution to this problem by proposing fully automated underwater image dehazing using multimodal DWT fusion. Inputs for the combinational image fusion scheme are derived from Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) and Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) for contrast enhancement in HSV color space and color constancy using Shades of Gray algorithm respectively. To appraise the work conducted, the visual and quantitative analysis is performed. The restored images demonstrate improved contrast and effective enhancement in overall image quality and visibility. The proposed algorithm performs on par with the recent underwater dehazing techniques.
