A Comparative Analysis of Integrated Boost Flyback Converter using PID and Fuzzy Controller

10.11591/ijpeds.v5.i4.pp486-501
R.Samuel Rajesh Babu
This paper presents a comparative analysis of Integrated boost flyback converter for Renewable energy System. IBFC is the combination of boost converter and fly back converter. The proposed converter is simulated in open and closed loop using PID and FUZZY controller. The Fuzzy Logic Controller (FLC) is used reduce the rise time, settling time to almost negligible and try to remove the delay time and inverted response. The performance of IBFC with fuzzy logic controller  is found better instead of PID controller. The simulation results are verified experimentally and  the output of converter is free from ripples and has regulated output voltage.

Recursive Least-Squares Estimation for the Joint Input-State Estimation of Linear Discrete Time Systems with Unknown Input

10.11591/ijece.v5i2.pp259-270
Talel Bessaoudi , Fayçal Ben Hmida
This paper presents a recursive least-squares approach to estimate simultaneously the state and the unknown input of linear time varying discrete time systems with unknown input. The method is based on the assumption that no prior knowledge about the dynamical evolution of the input is available. The joint input and state estimation are obtained by recursive least-squares formulation by applying the inversion lemmas. The proposed filter is equivalent to recursive three step filter. To illustrate the performance of the proposed filter an example is given.

With the revolution that the education field has known concerning the methods of learning and especially the integration of new technology, several new tools have appeared to replace the tools already existing, and among them there are serious games, serious games as new tool dedicated to education have occupied an important place, and replaced other tools often used in the learning process. But in the order that serious games reach the intended objectives and help instructors to achieve their perspectives considered, they must be equipped with a guidance and assistance system that will assist the learners during the progression in the sequence of the video game, and in addition, they must be equipped with a system of learning analytics that will help instructors to improve the learning process and teaching methods according to the learning outcomes and feedbacks of their learners. In this perspective of research and development we will establish in this paper a new system of assistance, guidance and learning analytics based on a multi agent system that will work in tandem with a web-based serious game.

Braking of Three Phase Induction Motors by Controlling Applied Voltage and Frequency Based on Particle Swarm Optimization Technique

10.11591/ijpeds.v5.i4.pp520-528
Mahmoud Mohamed Elkholy , Mohammed Abd Elhameed
Braking of three phase induction motors is required in many industrial applications. This paper introduces braking of three phase induction motors using particle swarm optimization (PSO) technique. The objective is to determine the optimum values of the applied voltage and frequency during braking to stop the motor in a certain time with minimum braking energy losses to limit any excessive thermal heating. The proposed technique is important and more useful in applications of repeated braking cycles. The results are compared with that obtained using plugging braking method and it's found that the proposed technique gives lower braking energy and shorter braking time. The braking energy losses with the proposed method are about 20% of the plugging braking energy losses with the same braking time. The proposed method determines the variation of optimal values of applied voltage and frequency to have a certain braking time of three phase induction motor at a certain load torque with minimum braking energy losses. The characteristics of the motor are simulated using SIMULINK/MATLAB.

10.11591/ijece.v5i2.pp311-317
Hemanta Kumar Palo , Mihir Narayan Mohanty
Child emotions are highly flexible and overlapping. The recognition is a difficult task when single emotion conveys multiple informations. We analyze the relevance and importance of these features and use that information to design classifier architecture. Designing of a system for recognition of children emotions with reasonable accuracy is still a challenge specifically with reduced feature set. In this paper, Probabilistic neural network (PNN) has been designed for such task of classification. PNN has faster training ability with continuous class probability density functions. It provides better classification even with reduced feature set. LP_VQC and pH vectors are used as the features for the classifier. It has been attempted to design the PNN classifier with these features. Various emotions like angry, bore, sad and happy have been considered for this piece of work. All these emotions have been collected from children in three different languages as English, Hindi, and Odia. Result shows remarkable classification accuracy for these classes of emotions. It has been verified in standard databse EMO-DB to validate the result.

In wireless communications system, it is desirable to allow the subscriber to send simultaneously information to the base station while receiving information from base station. Multiple access techniques are used to allow many mobile users to share simultaneously a finite amount of radio spectrum. Frequency division multiple access (FDMA), time division multiple access(TDMA), and code division multiple access (CDMA) are the three major access techniques used to share the available bandwidth in a wireless communication system. In this paper we calculated the number of channels required for FDMA & TDMA techniques depending on various factors such as spectrum, channel band width etc.

10.11591/ijece.v5i2.pp297-303
Mohammadreza Amini , Asra Mirzavandi , Mosrafa Rezaei
Spectrum sensing is one of the functionalities of cognitive radios to exploit spectrum holes without interrupting primary users transmission. The more efficient of the spectrum sensing, the highest the throughput of secondary and primary network. This paper presents spectrum sensing method based on phase type modelling that is simple to do for secondary users to conclude about the channel state (idle or busy) under collision constraint. The parameters of phase type model can be adjusted based on desired operating point of the receiver sensor in its ROC curve. The presented approach can run a trade off between sensing time and the two error probabilities of sensor false alarm and miss-detection.

Nouar Fadila Souad , Mansouri Seddik , Amrani Mohamed , Marie Pierre , Massoum Ahmed
Our work is to create a three-dimensional Simulator (3D) used for the study of the components to low geometry of design, and to determine in the volume structure  the  potential distributions and densities of free carriers in bias voltage given by solving the system of Poisson  and two  continuities equations. The initial version can simulate components of lifetime semiconductor.  In this study, we make a comparison between the lifetime and relaxation semiconductor in the conduction mode. In order to create a larger Simulator, we'll perform a calculation by varying am bipolar lifetime way to move from lifetime semiconductor to relaxation semiconductor. We consider the case corresponding at two different values of diffusion lifetime τ0 which is corresponding to a measured lifetime in current transport. The method of resolution consists to linearization of the equations transport by the finite differences method. The algorithm for solving linear and strongly coupled equations deduced from the physical model is the Newton-Raphson. However, in order to allow a better convergence and consequently an improvement of time computing 3D, a method combined, incorporating the Newton algorithm and the Gummel method was developed. PIN diodes are used for test of the simulation model

Adaptive Fuzzy Integral Sliding-Mode Regulator for Induction Motor Using Nonlinear Sliding Surface

10.11591/ijpeds.v5.i4.pp512-519
Yong-Kun Lu
An adaptive fuzzy integral sliding-mode controller using nonlinear sliding surface is designed for the speed regulator of a field-oriented induction motor drive in this paper. Combining the conventional integral sliding surface with fractional-order integral, a nonlinear sliding surface is proposed for the integral sliding-mode speed control, which can overcome the windup problem and the convergence speed problem. An adaptive fuzzy control term is utilized to approximate the uncertainty. The stability of the controller is analyzed by Lyapunov stability theory. The effectiveness of the proposed speed regulator is demonstrated by the simulation results in comparison with the conventional integral sliding-mode controller based on boundary layer.

https://ijeecs.iaescore.com/index.php/IJEECS/article/view/1451
M.F.N. Tajuddin , B. Ismail , A. Azmi , S. M. Ayob , Z. Salam
This paper presents an efficient power conditioning system for PV power system generation. The proposed Photovoltaic Power Conditioning System (PVPCS) used a single-stage single-phase Z-Source Inverter (ZSI) integrate with a relatively new evolutionary optimization algorithm known as the Differential Evolution (DE) as the Maximum Power Point (MPP) Tracker. Utilization of single-stage power conditioner overcomes several drawback of the two-stage configuration namely a higher part count, lower efficiency, lower reliability, higher cost and larger size. Furthermore, with a highly effective Differential Evolution (DE) based MPPT technique, the maximum power extraction from PV power generator is always at the optimum value. The proposed technique can track the true global MPP in most environmental circumstances particularly during the occurrence of partial shading condition. The proposed PVPCS is developed using MATLAB/Simulink. Simulation results show that the proposed PVPCS is able to realize inversion and boost function in single processing stage as well as dealing with partial shading condition. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/telkomnika.v14i1.7454
