The problem is formulated considering two objectives: Operating cost and NOX emission. The weighting method is used to simulate the trade-off relation between the conflicting objectives in the non-inferior domain. Decision maker uses fuzzy set theory to choose the best alternative among non-inferior solutions. MATLAB platform is used to provide the on-line solution of the problem. The effectiveness of the methodology is demonstrated through an example. The thermal generation schedule obtained is economic and environment friendly.","PeriodicalId":262597,"journal":{"name":"2006 International Conference on Power Electronic, Drives and Energy Systems","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116497947","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}

Voltage source converter based HVDC system bears the advantages of being able to change the control strategy immediately with respect to the active and reactive power changes. In this paper a function based fuzzy control system is proposed for the control of active power, DC voltage at converter station and voltage at inverter station. Basically two input one output methodology based fuzzy logic controller has been proposed. The basic features of proposed system used in VSC based HVDC systems are: 1) only two rule base system is used.2) all controllers are not self correcting. At both stations error and change in error have been taken as input to the controller. Design of high pass filter with FFT analysis has also been proposed for a better dynamic performance of the function based fuzzy controller. Computer simulation using Simulink gives clear result of the performance of the proposed controller.","PeriodicalId":262597,"journal":{"name":"2006 International Conference on Power Electronic, Drives and Energy Systems","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132004684","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}

Presently blockhouse telemetry front-end helical antenna is manually steered at the blockhouse top. This is a concern of safety and does not give any guarantee of acquiring data due to the poor visibility when the airborne vehicle goes far off. The paper describes prototype model of portable tracking antenna system that facilitates the user to control antenna both in manual and auto mode remotely from the block house. An array of four helical antennas were used to generate the dc tracking error in both azimuth and elevation plane. It also explains a control mechanism by which antenna systems are steered in both azimuth as well as elevation plane using power transistors and permanent magnet direct current motors. This method uses AGC comparison, which is relatively simpler and economical than conventional single channel amplitude comparison mono pulse or electronic scanning tracking method. The prototype was developed, tested and successfully driven the antenna in both manual as well as auto mode for real time telemetry data acquisition for airborne vehicle at blockhouse.","PeriodicalId":262597,"journal":{"name":"2006 International Conference on Power Electronic, Drives and Energy Systems","volume":"128 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117001026","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 ANN model is a four-layered perceptron neural network, which consists of, input layer, two hidden layers and output layer. Instead of conventional back propagation (BP) method, Levenberg-Marquardt BP (LMBP) method has been used for the ANN training to increase the speed of convergence.

HACS enables the home-owner to control appliances such as stove, refrigerator, air-conditioner, and the like, remotely, while the HSS helps to monitor the status of various networked security devices in the home and control certain aspects of the devices. Monitoring and control may be done by a personal digital device such as a laptop, PDA, telephone, or even a cell phone. One of the technologies widely used by HCS to connect the home controller with the appliances, equipments, and devices, is the X10 protocol that uses power lines for data transmission.
