To achieve good performance subject to white noises, bounded power disturbances, and to model uncertainties, and to have an acceptable reference tracking, combination of both H2(LQG) and H∞ methods is used. This method uses a time domain game approach for H2/H∞ design. It's required to solve the corresponding set of coupled algebraic Riccati equations to gain multiobjective controller.","PeriodicalId":282587,"journal":{"name":"2010 18th Iranian Conference on Electrical Engineering","volume":"50 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-05-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126497154","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}

This reduction affects frequency regulation of the grid. So new grid codes requires wind farms to participate in grid frequency regulation. This paper provides a new method to improve the contribution of DFIG based wind turbines in system frequency regulation. The method uses high kinetic energy stored in wind turbine and ability of DFIG to fast control of output power. This is done by introducing a supplementary loop to DFIG active power control loop. The effectiveness of the method is compared with other methods by simulation.","PeriodicalId":282587,"journal":{"name":"2010 18th Iranian Conference on Electrical Engineering","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-05-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125641004","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}

Finally, the analyses are verified by simulations of a typical LC oscillator under injection. The results of this analysis enable designers to evaluate the exact timing budget required to achieve injection locking.","PeriodicalId":282587,"journal":{"name":"2010 18th Iranian Conference on Electrical Engineering","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-05-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125681393","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 this paper, we study such a problem in an OFDM cooperative network comprising of multi battery-operated source-destination pairs and multiple relays with an objective of minimizing overall transmitting power under a total power and target data rate constraints. Assuming knowledge of the instantaneous channel gains for all links in the entire network, we propose several fairness criteria aiming at providing attractive trade-offs between network lifetime and users' outage probability. Numerical studies are conducted to evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithms in two practical scenarios. Simulation results show that the proposed allocation algorithms achieve good tradeoff between the network lifetime and users' outage.","PeriodicalId":282587,"journal":{"name":"2010 18th Iranian Conference on Electrical Engineering","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-05-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130175849","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 hollow disk structure of resonator with a ring shape anchor makes it capable to work at higher frequencies without downscaling. The ring shape anchor, which is placed at the stress free nodal zone of resonator at the desired resonance mode, causes significantly low insertion loss and therefore high quality factor. Such an anchor seems to be more reliable than stem shape anchor reported at previous papers. The motional resistance of the resonator is decreased due to displacement of the electrodes in both inside and outside of the structure. In addition to providing simulation results, this paper formulates the resonance frequency and calculates the optimum location of the anchor. Transfer function, resonance frequency and anchor displacement versus inner radius are studied.","PeriodicalId":282587,"journal":{"name":"2010 18th Iranian Conference on Electrical Engineering","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-05-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131222083","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}
