The innovative model considers critical factors such as load variations and limited receiver knowledge regarding transmitter component values, which are vital for the seamless operation of TP technology in charging devices with varying loads that are oblivious to the parameters of the transmitter. An efficient transmitter and an optimal receiver are introduced in the framework. The transmitter's design revolves around encoding data into the phase angle between the arm bridges, chosen to optimize energy efficiency. Notably, the model employs a buck-boost converter whose duty cycle is dynamically adjusted by the controller to accommodate changes in information or transmission phases, ensuring smooth system operation. Maximum likelihood detection methods are rendered impractical at the receiver due to the model's assumptions. To address this challenge, a neural network is implemented as a supervised learning classifier to extract information from the output voltage ripple.

As a solution for frequency modulation (FM), the battery energy storage system offers a promising alternative, enabling efficient frequency regulation while maintaining the state of charge (SOC) within an optimal range. This article proposes a master–slave FM strategy based on fuzzy control to facilitate SOC restoration during the FM process. Initially, the principles of FM for both control types are examined, focusing on the output characteristics of virtual sag control and virtual inertia control. Subsequently, a collaborative output approach combining sag control and inertia control is presented as the primary FM strategy, where frequency changes are analysed, and frequency deviations and SOC are regionally categorized. An adaptive regulator is then designed to dynamically allocate weights to the outputs of the sag and inertia slave FM controls. Finally, simulation results validate the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed master–slave FM strategy. Under conditions of continuous load disturbance, the strategy demonstrates a 4.07% improvement in SOC recovery compared to conventional control strategies that coordinate outputs through sag and inertia control.</p>","PeriodicalId":56302,"journal":{"name":"IET Power Electronics","volume":"17 16","pages":"2829-2841"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-11-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1049/pel2.12829","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143253605","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The analysis is based on the Lyapunov direct method in conjunction with the operating theory of the ACFC. The equivalent circuit with the state equations is established and their stability is assessed in consideration of the hard- and soft-switching operations using the Lyapunov energy function approach in a piecewise manner. In addition, averaged switch modelling is applied explicitly to derive a more accurate small-signal model of a low-side ACFC. The study revealed the presence of a non-minimum phase problem as the major adverse effect on the stability feature of the ACFC predesigned with soft-switching capability.

Then Chua's memristive circuit is introduced as an entropy source for generating a random bit sequence for encrypted PDST in a switched mode power supply. The encrypted data signal is modulated using phase shift key modulation. Thereafter, the carrier signal is pulse width modulation modulated to control the switching operation of the power switch. The use of Chua's memristive circuit for generating a random number is not new; however, there is little study directly adopting its use in PDST. This allows for resource sharing since multiple signal sources can share the same bus without interference or security risk.

The output capacity of HDT is affected by multiple degrees of freedom, and the optimal output capacity cannot be obtained according to the traditional analytical formula. In order to obtain the optimal output capacity of HDT, this paper proposes a HDT voltage partial compensation strategy based on the SA-PSO algorithm.

Incorporating the working principle of the IGBT bridge-arm short-circuit, a conduction voltage drop model has been established. A composite aging electrical parameter is used to eliminate the impact of degradation in the bond wire of the current source device. By engineering a closed-loop gate drive circuit with adjustable voltage, the short-circuit current is maintained constant, thereby facilitating the acquisition of a consistent conduction voltage drop. A conduction voltage extraction circuit is proposed, in which a resistance-capacitance discharging time is equivalent to the conduction voltage drop to replace the analogue-to-digital circuit.

Since the capacitor's voltages are self-balanced, therefore no need for an auxiliary circuit or sensors, which brings down the complexity of the circuit. To check the viability of the proposed topology, a simple and fundamental control strategy based on nearest-level pulse width modulation is opted for. From the comparative analysis, it was observed that the proposed topology outperformed similar topologies in terms of switch counts, cost factor, power quality, and total standing voltage.

Furthermore, a thermal analysis is conducted in PLECS software to calculate the losses across the components and consecutively the efficiency of the proposed circuit.
