Solar charge controller regulates the rate of charging and discharging of battery for its smooth and efficient operation. Solar charge sensor, component of charge controller is used to invoke full charge alarm and also discharge alarm as per the voltage level of battery. Solar charge sensor consumes certain power. LVCMOS I/O standards is the low voltage complementary metal oxide semiconductor. There are 4 different LVCMOS available in 28nm technology based Artix-7 FPGA. We are proposing I/O standards for solar charge sensor in order to achieve energy efficiency with solar charge sensor. There is 60% reduction in I/O power, when we use LVCMOS15 in place of LVCMOS33 in solar charge sensor design at 900MHz. Similarly, we are saving 51.85% I/O power, when we use LVCMOS18 in place of LVCMOS33 in solar charge sensor design operating at 5 GHz. Similarly, we are saving 32.31% IO power, when we use LVCMOS25 in place of LVCMOS33 in solar charge sensor design operating at 60 GHz.","PeriodicalId":206767,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE 6th India International Conference on Power Electronics (IICPE)","volume":" 11","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120832684","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 normal condition inverter current T.H.D is under the limit as per IEEE-519. At the time of fault, inverter having voltage imbalance, which may lead to damage. System fault ride through capability is improved by using Series Dynamic Braking Resistor (SDBR) with high current error as control parameter. Protection scheme maintains the grid code and hence the solar inverter needs not to be disconnected from the grid during the fault. Comparative results are obtained by simulation in MATLAB R2013a software. The whole system can be used in local distribution system as an application in future effectively.","PeriodicalId":206767,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE 6th India International Conference on Power Electronics (IICPE)","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122653089","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}

Operation of shunt capacitor banks is manually and accordingly there is a wide variation in wind power plant power factor of 0.9 lagging to 0.9 leading. Due to large variations in wind generation power factor, reactive power flows on transmission lines are also variable and accordingly there is a wide variation in power transmission system voltage from minimum 0.8 p.u. to a maximum of 1.20 p.u. Due to low & high power system voltages, transmission lines are tripped resulting constrained in a wind power evacuation. Considering the high penetration of wind power in the system, in this paper, Static Var Compensator (SVC) is proposed at 400kV GSS Jaisalmerfor large scale wind power penetrated power system, for mitigation of wind power generators reactive power. Simulation studies have been carried out to validate the effectiveness of the SVC for voltage control with the variation in wind power generation power factor. Case studies are carried out in 19-bus system in Western Rajasthan area where wind power penetration is even more than 2000MW to demonstrate the performance of the SVC taking the consolidated effect of voltage behavior with and without SVC at a different power factor. Wind power, penetrated part of Rajasthan power system has been modeled using Mi.-Power system analysis software. Results of tests conducted on the model system in various possible field conditions are presented and discussed.","PeriodicalId":206767,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE 6th India International Conference on Power Electronics (IICPE)","volume":"81 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128409826","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 order to have good regulation of capacitor voltage, Buck converters are generally provided with a feedback control mechanism. Since the converter dynamics changes from ON time period to OFF time period of the power electronic switch, the traditionally designed feedback controller provides only near-satisfactory voltage regulation. Aiming to obtain a more robust controller, which can track the desired voltage profile over large domain of operating points, the controller design for the feedback control of Buck DC-DC converter is constructed as an optimization problem and then the solution is acquired through a recently developed optimization technique known as queen bee evolution based Genetic Algorithm. The theoretical notions and implementation of the proposed methodology towards the search of a robust feedback control parameters for Buck converters are discussed in this paper. Extensive simulation and experimental studies under the presence of eventualities like matched and mismatched uncertainties are compared with conventional Genetic Algorithm, which thereby confirms the validity of the new approach.","PeriodicalId":206767,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE 6th India International Conference on Power Electronics (IICPE)","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121573972","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}
