, 2018 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, the problems of relay selection and distributed beamforming are investigated for bi-directional dual-hop amplify-and-forward frequency-division duplex cooperative wireless networks. When using individual ...
Pareto-front analysis of a monotonie PI control law for slip suppression in a robotic manipulator
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents a novel slip-suppression controller for a two-fingered robotic manipulator, where the goal is to minimize the slip distance without using excessive force. To do this, we consider monotonic PI (MPI) ...
High-gain DC-DC converters for high-power PV applications: Performance assessment
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Conventional non-isolated DC-DC converters provide limited practical gains at high duty cycles due to their parasitic losses. Such trend is not suitable for renewables grid integration due to the high required gain, while ...
