Design Space Exploration of Time-Multiplexed FIRFilters on FPGAs

FIR (Finite-length Impulse Response) filters are the corner stone of many signalprocessing devices. A lot of research has gone into their development as wellas their effective implementation. With recent research focusing a lot on power consumption reduction specially with regards to FPGAs, it was found necessaryto explore FIR filters mapping on FPGAs.

Time multiplexed FIR filters are also a good candidate for examination withrespect to power consumption and resource utilization, for example when implementedin Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs). This is motivated by thefact that the usable clock frequency often is higher compared to the required datarate.

Analytical Modeling of Partially Shaded Photovoltaic Systems

As of today, the considerable influence of select environmental variables, especially irradiance intensity, must still be accounted for whenever discussing the performance of a solar system. Therefore, an extensive, dependable modeling method is required in investigating the most suit able Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) method under different conditions.

Following these requirements, MATLAB-programmed modeling and simulation of photovoltaic systems is presented here, by focusing on the effects of partial shading on the output of the photovoltaic (PV) systems. End results prove the reliability of the proposed model in replicating the aforementioned output characteristics in the prescribed setting. The proposed model is chosen because it can, conveniently, simulate the behavior of different ranges of PV systems from a single PV module through the multidimensional PV structure.

Piezoelectric Energy Harvesting Devices for Recharging Batteries

Piezoelectric materials can be used as a means of transforming ambient vibrations into electrical energy that can be stored and used to power other devices. With the recent surge of micro scale devices, piezoelectric power generation can provide a convenient alternative to traditional power sources used to operate certain types of sensors/actuators, telemetry, and MEMS devices.

However, the energy produced by these materials is in many cases far too small to directly power an electrical device. Therefore, much of the research into power harvesting has focused on methods of accumulating the energy until a sufficient amount is present, allowing the intended electronics to be powered.

Dynamic Positioning of a Semi-submersible, Multi-turbine Wind Power Platform Using MATLAB

As a growing market for offshore wind power has created a niche for deep-water installations, offshore floating wind solutions have become more and more viable as a renewable energy source. In this paper, it is suggested that the wind turbines themselves may be used to provide the thrust needed to correct the platform heading, thus eliminating the practical need for submerged thrusters.

Power Load Balancing Using Fuzzy Logic Using MATLAB

Overloading is a major problem as there is no any system to ensure the consumer power usage. For example, weather conditions can change the consumer usage and extreme weather conditions can cause overloading. So when there is no way to determine consumer usage, the one alternative is load balancing. Load balancing is very important feature that keeps the system safe from overloading. When one area is overloaded, the loads can be transferred to the less loaded areas using switches. And load balancing provides how much load has to be transferred to maintain system within limits. The other way is to control using automatic generation control (AGC).

Multi Disciplinary Modeling, Control, and Optimization of a Solid Oxide Fuel Cell/Gas Turbine Hybrid Power System Using MATLAB

This thesis describes a systematical study, including multidisciplinary modeling, simulation, control, and optimization, of a fuel cell–gas turbine hybrid power system that aims to increase the system efficiency and decrease the energy costs by combining two power sources. The fuel cell-gas turbine hybrid power systems can utilize exhaust fuel and waste heat from fuel cells in the gas turbines to increase system efficiency. This research considers a hybrid power system consisting of an internally reforming solid oxide fuel cell and a gas turbine. In the hybrid power system, the anode exhaust, which contains the remainder of the fuel, is mixed with the cathode exhaust as well as an additional supply of fuel and compressed air and then burned in a catalytic oxidizer.
