Currently, the implementation of nonlinear negative resistance primarily relies on switch-mode converters. Among these, the conventional PT-WPT system based on self-excited converters faces challenges such as limited output power and overall system efficiency (OSE). In this article, we propose a novel dual-supply self-excited PT-WPT system designed to address these challenges, offering a cost-effective solution. We present the circuit, coupled-mode model, and PT-symmetric condition of the proposed system. Furthermore, stability criteria of the system at each equilibrium point are analyzed using Lyapunov’s first method. Finally, we implement a single-supply system to validate the correctness of the models and stability criteria. In addition, a dual-supply system is constructed, achieving an output power of 101.2 W with OSE of 89.2%.","PeriodicalId":100619,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Canadian Journal of Electrical and Computer Engineering","volume":"47 2","pages":"78-86"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140651131","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}

Mode-S radar, crucial in modern aviation, facilitates communication between aircraft and ground systems, thereby enhancing aircraft tracking, situational awareness, and air traffic safety. Our simulation focuses on optimizing interrogation and reply sequences in the 1030- and 1090-MHz channels, respectively. It provides a practical solution for testing complex air flight scenarios, which may be impractical or costly in real life, by replicating challenging conditions in a computerized environment. This approach aids in developing advanced radar signaling algorithms for air traffic control. The simulator’s user-friendly interface displays real-time aircraft data, demonstrating its realworld applicability. Its successful operation underscores its potential to advance Mode-S radar technology and its value for research in the field.","PeriodicalId":100619,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Canadian Journal of Electrical and Computer Engineering","volume":"47 3","pages":"111-117"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-03-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142013155","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}

In the first stage, the well-being analysis (WBS) is performed to determine the power generation and spinning reserve (SR) of the TUs regarding the timely power generation of WTs. In the second stage, the adoption of the responsive load consumption with various conditions of the generation system in the power pool market is established using the cost of expected energy not served criterion. This optimization problem is solved at two stages using the genetic algorithm. To validate the proposed model, numerical studies have been applied to the generation part of 24-Bus IEEE standard test power system including 11 TUs, one wind farm, and 1000 EVs. It is found from simulation results that an 8%–10% shift and increase in the energy consumption with responsive loads (RLs) participation especially EVs during low-load and off-peak hours can lead to more than 53.83% saving in total reliability cost of power system. In addition, the daily smooth load profile causes to savings in total load ED on TUs in the presence of WTs due to removing the unnecessary startup and shot-down costs during a day.","PeriodicalId":100619,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Canadian Journal of Electrical and Computer Engineering","volume":"47 2","pages":"48-59"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140328908","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}

Conventional busbar design only takes the normal operational performance into account. This article proposes an optimal busbar design method for the modular multilevel converter (MMC) submodule, which takes both the normal and fault ride-through performance into account. The normal operational design is to realize low stray inductance and balanced inductance distribution between parallel capacitor branches. The basic structural design guideline for the MMC submodule is presented. Taking both the stray inductance and manufacturing cost into account, the optimal layout of the busbar is proposed. To balance the capacitor branch currents, the mathematical model of the busbar stray inductance is built. The influence of different busbar structures on the stray inductance is analyzed. The analysis is verified by simulation results. To improve the fault ride-through capability, special consideration is taken into account to reduce the thermal and mechanical stress at the weakest point. Simulation and experimental results verify the efficacy of the proposed approaches.","PeriodicalId":100619,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Canadian Journal of Electrical and Computer Engineering","volume":"47 2","pages":"36-47"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140328936","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}

However, fine-tuning these controllers is crucial for achieving a satisfactory closed-loop response. In this study, we employed a deep deterministic policy gradient (DDPG) reinforcement learning (RL) algorithm to adaptively adjust the PID controller parameters, taking into account the uncertain characteristics of the MG system. The DDPG agent was trained until it achieved the maximum possible reward and to learn an optimal policy. Subsequently, the trained agent was utilized in an online manner to adaptively adjust the PID controller gains for managing the fuel-cell (FC) unit, wind turbine generator (WTG), and plug-in electric vehicle (PEV) battery to meet the load demand. We have conducted various simulation scenarios to compare the performance of the proposed adaptive RL-tuned PID controller with the fuzzy gain scheduling PID (FGSPID) controller.

The proposed system employs various artificial intelligence (AI) object recognition modules, such as single-shot multibox detector (SSD)-MobileNetV2, SSD-InceptionV2, Faster region-based convolutional neural network (R-CNN)-InceptionV2, and Faster R-CNN-Inception-ResNetV2-Atrous \u0000<xref>(2)</xref>\u0000.

This study included nine scalp symptoms, encompassing four primary conditions (dandruff, hair loss, gray hair, and oily hair), as well as five special conditions (folliculitis, chemical residue, mold, fungi, fungus, and psoriasis). The efficiency of the proposed system is evaluated through experiments, and adjustments are made to the neural network architecture to achieve optimal performance across diverse symptoms.
