In the earlier stages of the basic MLC structure, a large number of switching devices were employed to obtain the replica of the sine wave. This article focuses on reducing the count of switching devices to half the quantity for a higher number of levels in the MLC structure. Proportionally, overall cost and operational complexity in power semiconductor switches get reduced remarkably providing stable operation. In this article, a new topology has been implemented from the knowledge of conventional converters and existing MLCs derived from literature. The proposed topology is designed with a reduced number of both switching devices and dc sources compared to the existing hybrid type and conventional converter structures. Its corresponding topology and mode of operations during each level are studied and the performances are also analyzed. Switching components’ requirement, switching state table and voltage stress, and total harmonic distortion (THD) values of the proposed topology were evaluated. The output five-level voltage has been generated using both MATLAB simulation and hardware experimental setup. The proposed topology with reduced device components exhibits its superior characteristics in all aspects.","PeriodicalId":100619,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Canadian Journal of Electrical and Computer Engineering","volume":"45 3","pages":"285-292"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68033573","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The modified Perturb and Observe (P&O) algorithm has been used for maximum power extraction from the PV source. The proposed system is capable of operating in the standalone mode and the grid-connected mode. The Luo converter is promising with the viewpoint of low inrush current, high voltage gain, small ripples along with high power density, high efficiency, and simple structure. Hence, the Luo converter has been used for maximum power extraction from the PV source, which is appropriate for both grid-tied and islanding modes of operation. The modified P&O algorithm has been used for maximum power extraction. The proposed MPPT technique reduces the drift problem, which occurs in the conventional MPPT methods by including the data of change in current (\u0000<inline-formula> <tex-math>$Delta I$ </tex-math></inline-formula>\u0000) in addition to the data used in the conventional P&O algorithm. This extraction has achieved by using a novel decoupling method, which, in turn, reduces the size of the filter. The converter along with the decoupling method also ensures reduced harmonics at the grid output. The operational principle and the stability analysis of the proposed converter have been analyzed in different modes of operation, such as grid-connected mode and standalone. The simulation has been carried out in MATLAB/Simulink environment. The implementation of the converter is carried out using a microcontroller-based prototype model to validate the performance. The efficiency of the proposed converter has been calculated to be 87.53% when operating under the grid-connected mode, whereas the efficiency is 92.46% when operating under the standalone mode.","PeriodicalId":100619,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Canadian Journal of Electrical and Computer Engineering","volume":"45 3","pages":"293-302"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68033574","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many models based on mathematical optimization have been developed to address the challenge of supporting residential customers in providing flexibility services to the grid. However, comparing and applying those models is not always straightforward because of particular data handling or specific assumptions. In this work, we take advantage of the common aspects of DR models to build a metamodel, and hence an open source Python library that aims to unify the concepts and the data streaming in and out of the underlying mathematical optimization models. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the metamodel and of the Python library by using it to implement a task scheduler and to optimize the energy consumption for two dwellings.","PeriodicalId":100619,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Canadian Journal of Electrical and Computer Engineering","volume":"45 3","pages":"254-261"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68033557","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposed decoupling circuit uses a fourth-order coupling-resonator filter effect and is designed using the structure’s admittance parameter. In the decoupling circuit, the pair of dual-band second-order stub-based filters is used for the desired band’s lower and upper frequencies. Finite transmission zeros provide cross-coupling, which helps maintain the admittance slope stopband between these bands and reduces coupling among MIMO elements. The proposed fourth-order decoupling circuit concept can be utilized for different wideband MIMO antenna applications to redesign the targeted band and cross-coupling scenario properly. In addition, to demonstrate the proposed decoupling circuit concept’s influence in achieving good wideband isolation in a compact dimension of \u0000<inline-formula> <tex-math>$45times 40times1.6$ </tex-math></inline-formula>\u0000 mm\u0000³\u0000, octagonal- and circular-shaped patch MIMO antennas are analyzed.

This demonstrates that the decoupling circuits are antenna-independent and can be applied to other MIMO antennas. The measured S-parameters of the proposed wideband MIMO antenna present high isolation (>20 dB) between the antenna elements. Moreover, the proposed solutions’ radiation behavior and diversity performance are evaluated. The MIMO antenna element measured radiation efficiency is increased from 50% to 75%. It demonstrates good properties that make it a suitable contender for advanced scientific applications.","PeriodicalId":100619,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Canadian Journal of Electrical and Computer Engineering","volume":"45 2","pages":"114-123"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68023864","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
