The complex dynamical behavior of the proposed system is studied in detail by analyzing its equilibria, Lyapunov spectra, and bifurcation diagram. The feasibility and accuracy of the novel attractor are examined by constructing its analog circuit implementation. Additionally, periodic states of the system are examined in both numerical and PSpice simulations, as well as an analog circuit implementation. The hardware experimental results are highly compatible with numerical and PSpice simulations. As can be seen from the numerical simulations and hardware implementation, the presented system shows sensitive and rich dynamic behaviors in a small range of system parameters. The proposed oscillator circuit is also cost-effective, as it has only seven terms. Additionally, a sliding mode controller (SMC) is presented to control the novel attractor. The stability of the designed SMC is proven via the Lyapunov stability method. Lastly, a microcontroller-based implementation is realized, and it is seen that the experimental results are in good accordance with the simulation results. The correctness of the proposed controller is approved by theoretical analysis, numerical simulations, and experimental results.","PeriodicalId":100619,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Canadian Journal of Electrical and Computer Engineering","volume":"46 3","pages":"228-236"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68026229","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 analysis of the switching sequence for the operation of 15 level multi-level inverter (MLI) topology using logical gates is introduced in this article. A 15-level reduced switch topology is proposed which consists of eight switches. The main focus is to analyze the procedure of generating a pulse pattern for the eight switches in the circuit and to obtain the logical expression. Key Findings: The input pulse for the generation of eight different pulse patterns is obtained by MC-PWM technique. Several MC-PWM techniques, including phase disposition (PD), alternate phase opposition disposition (APOD), and phase opposition disposition (POD), are available. POD were applied to the proposed reduced switch topology using the same logical expression and the results were analyzed. MATLAB/Simulink is employed in the execution of the simulation work. The desired pulse pattern is simulated in real time and generated with the assistance of dSPACE 1104. Various modulation index (MI) and several PWM algorithms are used to examine the total harmonic distortion (THD) comparison study.","PeriodicalId":100619,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Canadian Journal of Electrical and Computer Engineering","volume":"46 3","pages":"237-245"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68026232","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}

As the equivalent resistance of the on-board battery charger continuously fluctuates during operation, a battery charging algorithm based on an improvised continuous current (CC)–constant voltage (CV) is proposed. This article introduces the design of an integrated stationary IPT system to inductively transfer power from a transmitter pad positioned on the ground and the receiver pad embedded under the chassis of an EV. An innovative feature of the design is the implementation of a magnetic switch sensor that is incorporated into both the transmitting and receiving wireless charging circuitry to ensure optimum alignment for IPT. The power electronics design focuses on the implementation of an H-bridge converter incorporating series–series (SS) compensation topology to use an innovative control algorithm to prioritize battery charging operations. The system is validated through a simulation model in PSIM and a hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation in Typhoon before hardware implementation and testing of the developed prototype. At a test resonant frequency of 23.74 kHz and a nominal air gap separation of 120 mm, the developed IPT system had an overall efficiency of 93.41%.","PeriodicalId":100619,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Canadian Journal of Electrical and Computer Engineering","volume":"46 3","pages":"207-217"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68026230","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}

Initially, we considered a curved road geometrics formulation and designed a time-distributed (TD) model for NCVX OSVM to compute the steering angle 0°–180° at 10 m/s to follow active navigation at the highest curve entry speed. The proposed TD NCVX OSVM is interconnected with three modules. In the first module, formulated NCVX cost functions and Optimized SVM for smooth steering stability. The second module is based on improving faster training time (IFTT) by using the Naive Bayes probabilistic classifier (NBPC). The third module uses an optimized non-convex (NCVX) cost function to reduce the error phenomenon. The performance of these three modules is evaluated by several 100 data points from vehicle onboard sensors. Further, it is pre-processed in the curved road (start, continue, exit) conditions. The decisive of TD-NCVX OSVM design is demonstrated by using experimental learning on FPGA Zynq 7000 processor and programmed with python script.
