Unipolar Single Reference Multicarrier Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation Based 7-level Inverter with Reduced Number of Semiconductor Switches for Renewable Energy Applications
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
In the present scenario of increasing power demand and depletion of fossil fuel results in the research advancements in the field of renewable energy sources. Among various types of renewable energy sources, photovoltaic ...
Novel design for thermal management of PV cells in harsh environmental conditions
(
MDPI AG
, 2018 , Article)
The abundance of solar energy is a blessing in the Arabian Peninsula, where more than 2000 kWh/m2 density has been recorded annually. This has resulted in sincere consideration of PV harvesting in the energy matrix and ...
Wind power smoothing using demand response of electric vehicles
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
© 2018 Elsevier Ltd Large penetrations of wind power is prevented in most power systems, mainly because it is highly stochastic. One important aspect of this uncertainty is the large power gradients that wind farms may ...
Event-triggered fault detection for discrete-time LPV systems with application to a laboratory tank system
(
John Wiley and Sons Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
This paper investigates a new event-triggered fault detection methodology for discrete-time dynamic systems characterized by linear parameter-varying models. An event-based linear parameter-varying observer is presented ...
Event-Triggered Fault Detection for Networked Control Systems Subject to Packet Dropout
(
Wiley-Blackwell
, 2018 , Article)
This paper investigates the problem of event-triggered fault detection for discrete-time networked systems subject to packet dropout. The main aim of the proposed approach is to efficiently use the communication network ...
Physical Layer Security for TAS/MRC Systems With and Without Co-Channel Interference Over Fading Channels
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Article)
In this paper, the secrecy performance of transmit antenna selection/maximal ratio combining systems in the absence and presence of co-channel interference (CCI) over ?-? fading channels is considered. In particular, ...
A Fair Reputation-Based Incentive Mechanism for Cooperative Crowd Sensing
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Crowd Sensing (CS) is a paradigm empowered by the pervasiveness of mobile smart devices, in which crowds of device owners cooperate to provide information about their surrounding environment. In this paper, we introduce ...
Data Clustering Based on Community Structure in Mutual k-Nearest Neighbor Graph
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Data clustering is a fundamental machine learning problem. Community structure is common in social and biological networks. In this article we propose a novel data clustering algorithm that uses this phenomenon in mutual ...
Experimental setup to validate the effects of major environmental parameters on the performance of FSO communication link in Qatar
(
MDPI AG
, 2018 , Article)
Weather conditions and chemical composition of the atmosphere are the most uncontrollable challenges for free-space optical (FSO) communications. Environmental parameters contribute directly in the characterization of ...
On Channel Selection for Carrier Aggregation Systems
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Article)
In this paper, the problem of sub-channel selection for carrier aggregation (CA) systems is examined. CA enables the achievement of high data rate links via simultaneous transmissions over multiple component carriers. A ...
