Investigation of inter feeder power flow regulator: Load sharing mode
(2010 , Article)
The Inter feeder Power Flow Regulator (IFPFR) proposed in this paper consists of several voltage source inverters with common dc bus; each inverter is connected in series with one of different independent distribution ...
New voltage regulation techniques for low voltage radial feed PWM inverter based distributed networks
(2010 , Conference Paper)
Grid voltage rise problems occur, especially at light loads, due to the proliferation of distributed generation. Two techniques are proposed for regulating the voltage in low voltage radial networks when inverter based ...
Switched mode power supplies for charge-up, discharge and balancing dc-link capacitors of diode-clamped five-level inverter
(
IET
, 2010 , Article)
Inductor switch mode power supplies (SMPS) operated in a discontinuous inductor current mode are used to balance the dc-link capacitor voltages of a diode-clamped five-level inverter. The SMPS concept is extended to charge ...
Cognitive relaying in wireless sensor networks: Performance analysis and optimization
(
IEEE
, 2010 , Conference Paper)
The anticipated increase in the density of the deployed wireless sensor networks calls for spectrum sharing through unlicensed access to licensed spectrum. The key technology for spectrum sharing in this scenario is cognitive ...
Preparing and educating the Arab Qatari engineer of 2030
(
American Society for Engineering Education
, 2010 , Conference Paper)
This paper addresses the issue of adapting Engineering Education to a changing situation in Qatar, a small country that is part of the Arab Gulf Cooperation Council. It presents the framework for a national project planned ...
A signal combining technique based on channel shortening for cooperative sensor networks
(
IEEE
, 2010 , Conference Paper)
The cooperative relaying process needs proper coordination among the communicating and the relaying nodes. This coordination and the required capabilities may not be available in some wireless systems, e.g. wireless sensor ...
Innovative ad-hoc wireless sensor networks to significantly reduce leakages in underground water infrastructures
(
IEEE
, 2010 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents an ICT solution to overcome the problem of water dispersion in water distribution networks. Leakage prevention and breaks identification in water distribution networks are fundamental for an adequate ...
Relay assignment in network-coded cooperative systems with M-PSK modulation over asymmetric channels
(
IEEE
, 2010 , Conference Paper)
We consider in this paper relay assignment for cooperative systems with multiple two-way relay channels. The nodes corresponding to one two-way relay channel (henceforth referred to as pair) communicate with each other ...
Priority-based scheduling for limited energy cognitive relaying
(
IEEE
, 2010 , Conference Paper)
We study the problem of cognitive relaying with limited-energy constraint in opportunistic spectrum access cognitive networks. Under this network setting, the cognitive user increases the spectrum availability for its own ...
Exact closed form expressions for outage probability of GSC receivers over Rayleigh fading channel subject to self-interference
(
IEEE
, 2010 , Conference Paper)
Previous work on performance analyses of generalized selection combining (GSC) RAKE receivers based on the signal to noise ratio focused on the development of methodologies to derive exact closed-form expressions for various ...
