Among the issues related to this, some are related more to the production and distribution of electrical energy and others related to the consumption. When dealing with the consumption of electrical energy, at any level, the most important factor is the harmonic pollution. As such, mitigating the effects of the current harmonics, and even more, compensating them is an important subject. For this, active filters are generally used, and their control structure is subject to many research initiatives. In this paper, different design methods for the harmonic controllers often used in medium level active filters are compared based on their dynamic behavior when faced with a reference very similar to the one obtained when mitigating the harmonic content of an electrical drive.","PeriodicalId":359645,"journal":{"name":"2021 12th International Symposium on Advanced Topics in Electrical Engineering (ATEE)","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-03-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114810713","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 main problem with all these applications is the distance from the power source (transmitter) to the load (receiver) to be covered by the contactless transmission. This limitation is caused by the operating principle of near-field energy transfer based on the Faraday’s law. The paper deals with a dipolar magnetic (inductive) coupler based on the use of round rod ferrites which allow the increase of the magnetic coupling and provides the possibility to cover distances at least twice as large as compared to the unipolar magnetic coupler with planar coils used in most applications. The properties of these magnetic couplers are determined experimentally and by FEM simulation and compared. An application is presented herein, in which the separation gap of the coupler linked to the required insulation voltage which must be provided for the power supply of high voltage devices.","PeriodicalId":359645,"journal":{"name":"2021 12th International Symposium on Advanced Topics in Electrical Engineering (ATEE)","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-03-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114867814","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 the case of making corrections on the time series, a Pearson correlation coefficient of over 0.98 was identified for both the HRV and PRV correlations, that is for both methods employed. Moreover, based on the changes of the HRV and the PRV parameters, within the period of a week, the evolution of the state of fatigue of a subject has been highlighted. The HRV parameters result in being identical to the PPG parameters.","PeriodicalId":359645,"journal":{"name":"2021 12th International Symposium on Advanced Topics in Electrical Engineering (ATEE)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-03-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131113244","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 reality, this ability is a complex mechanism which requires thoughts to be translated into words who are further transposed into sounds, a mechanism which involves precise coordination of several muscles and joints. In some cases, this complex mechanism can no longer be performed and may be accompanied by almost complete loss of motor activity such in diseases as: stroke, Lock-Down syndrome, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, cerebral palsy etc. The most recent method that aims to supplement the speech mechanism is imaginary speech recognition using electroencephalographic (EEG) signals, by using complex computing mechanisms like Deep Learning (DL) in order to decode the thoughts. In this paper we aim to recognize three types of clustered phonemes using conventional speech recognition techniques, like Mel-Cepstral Coefficients (MFCC) and Linear Predictive Coding (LPC) combined with Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN). We compared four types of features extraction: MFCC, LPC, MFCC+ LPC combined into 1-channel matrix and MFCC+ LPC combined into a 2-channel matrix. We showed that MFCC coefficients offer a better accuracy than LPC and that concatenating MFCC and LPC into a 2-channel matrix we obtain a better performance than combining them into 1-channel matrix.","PeriodicalId":359645,"journal":{"name":"2021 12th International Symposium on Advanced Topics in Electrical Engineering (ATEE)","volume":"134 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-03-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114871114","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}
