High flexibility and accessibility are the main advantages of contactless measurements. In this paper, we proposed a contactless healthcare kiosk for intelligent building application. The Remote Imaging Photoplethysmography (rIPPG) based framework to measure multiple human's vital signs, including pulse rate (PR), respiratory rate (RR), and systolic blood pressure (SBP) was developed to fulfill the performance requirement with a personal computer. Our experimental results show the Mean Absolute Error (MAE) of each measured parameters are 1.7 BPM, 0.41 BPM and 8.15 mmHg for PR, RR, and SBP respectively compared with clinical apparatus. These statistical numbers show the feasibility of using the contactless based system to measure numerous vital signs and also meet the requirements of standard healthcare device.","PeriodicalId":356367,"journal":{"name":"2018 3rd International Conference on Intelligent Green Building and Smart Grid (IGBSG)","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123248907","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}

And the intermittency of wind energy has a direct effect on the power system frequency. In this paper, an equivalent load method, a system state simulation technique, and the frequency characteristic of power system are used to evaluate the reliability of generating systems containing wind energy considering the steady state frequency characteristics based on the sequential Monte Carlo technique. The proposed method in this study is applied to the Roy Billinton Test System (RBTS). The results show that the presented method can not only reflect the contribution of wind power to the overall power system reliability, but also the negative impact of wind power fluctuation on power system reliability.","PeriodicalId":356367,"journal":{"name":"2018 3rd International Conference on Intelligent Green Building and Smart Grid (IGBSG)","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129322742","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 inverter under unipolar one-cycle control has strong ability to resist power disturbance, and there is no integrator reset and voltage offset problem. The voltage and current dual-loop control improves the dynamic performance and the nonlinear load carrrying capacity of the inverter. The working principle of the inverter under the compound control strategy is described in detail. The simulation and experiment results show that the inverter has good output characteristics under this strategy, and the effectiveness of the strategy is demonstrated.","PeriodicalId":356367,"journal":{"name":"2018 3rd International Conference on Intelligent Green Building and Smart Grid (IGBSG)","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123969859","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}

According to the line parameters characteristics of the off-grid MG with medium/low voltage, the P-U/Q-f droop control is adopted in this study, where the virtual complex impedance composed of a virtual negative inductance and a virtual resistance is introduced in the control loop. The virtual negative inductance is used to reduce the power coupling caused by the inductive component of the system impedance. The virtual resistance is implemented to enhance the resistive component and adjust the impedance matching degree for raising the accuracy of power sharing. However, the power sharing is still affected by the system hardware parameters, meanwhile, the voltage deviation caused by the droop control and the virtual impedance exists. In this study, a novel voltage stabilization and power sharing control method based on the virtual complex impedance is investigated to achieve accurate power sharing without the impact of hardware parameters variations and to improve the voltage quality. Numerical simulations are provided to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control method in comparison with traditional frameworks.","PeriodicalId":356367,"journal":{"name":"2018 3rd International Conference on Intelligent Green Building and Smart Grid (IGBSG)","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133332818","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}
