Abstract

In this paper, a novel stator current based Model Reference Adaptive System (MRAS) estimator for speed estimation in the speed-sensorless vector controlled induction motor drives is presented. In the proposed MRAS estimator, measured stator current of the induction motor is considered as a reference model. The estimated stator current is produced in an adjustable model to compare with the measured stator current, where rotor flux identification is needed for stator current estimation. In the available stator current based MRAS estimator, rotor flux is estimated by the use of measured stator current, where the adjustable model and reference model depend on each other since measured stator current is employed in both of them. To improve the performance of the MRAS speed estimator, both the stator current and rotor flux are estimated in the adjustable model by using the state space equations of the induction motor, adjusted with the rotor speed calculated by an adaptation mechanism. The stability of the proposed MRAS estimator is studied through a small signal analysis. Senorless induction motor drive along with the proposed MRAS speed estimator is verified through computer simulations. In addition, performance of the proposed MRAS is compared with the available stator current based MRAS speed estimator

Abstract

This paper presents a simple and easy implementable Least Mean Square (LMS) type approach for frequency estimation of three phase power system in an unbalanced condition. The proposed LMS type algorithm is based on a second order recursion for the complex voltage derived from Clarke's transformation which is proved in the paper. The proposed algorithm is real adaptive filter with real parameter (not complex) which can be efficiently implemented by DSP. In unbalanced situations, simulation experiments show the advantages and drawbacks of the proposed algorithm in comparison to Complex LMS (CLMS) and Augmented Complex LMS (ACLMS) methods

Abstract

The Global Positioning System (GPS) signals are very weak signal over wireless channels, so they are vulnerable to in-band interferences. Therefore, even a low-power interference can easily spoof GPS receivers. Among the variety of GPS signal interference, spoofing is considered as the most dangerous intentional interference. The spoofing effects can mitigate with an appropriate strategy in the receiver. In this paper, we use methods of adaptive filter based on Least Mean Squares (LMS) and Normalized Least Mean Squares (NLMS) algorithms in-order to defense against spoofing. The proposed techniques are applied in the acquisition stage of the receiver. The proposed methods have been implemented on real dataset. The results explain that the suggested algorithms significantly decrease spoofing. Also, they improve Position Dilution of Precision (PDOP) parameter. Based on the results, NLMS algorithm has better performance than LMS algorithm.

Abstract

Microgrids is an new opportunity to reduce the total costs of power generation and supply the energy demands through small-scale power plants such as wind sources, photo voltaic panels, battery banks, fuel cells, etc. Like any power system in micro grid (MG), an unexpected faults or load shifting leads to frequency oscillations. Hence, this paper employs an adaptive fuzzy P-PID controller for frequency control of microgrid and a modified multi objective Chaotic Gravitational Search Algorithm (CGSA) in order to find out the optimal setting parameters of the proposed controller. To provide a robust controller design, two non-commensurable objective functions are formulated based on eigenvalues-domain and time-domain and multi objective CGSA algorithm is used to solve them. Moreover, a fuzzy decision method is applied to extract the best and optimal Pareto fronts. The proposed controller is carried out on a MG system under different loading conditions with wind turbine generators, photovoltaic system, flywheel energy, battery storages, diesel generator and electrolyzer. The simulation results revealed that the proposed controller is more stable in comparison with the classical and other types of fuzzy controller.

Abstract

In this paper, a robust adaptive actuator failure compensation control scheme is proposed for a class of multi input multi output linear systems with unknown time-varying state delay and in the presence of unknown actuator failures and external disturbance. The adaptive controller structure is designed based on the SPR-Lyapunov approach to achieve the control objective under the specific assumptions and the SDU factorization method of the high frequency gain matrix is employed to drive the suitable form of the error equation.  The two component controller structure with an integral term is used in order to compensate the effect of unknown state delay and external disturbance. Using a suitable Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional, it is shown that despite existing external disturbance and actuator failures, all closed loop signals are bounded and the plant Output asymptotically tracks the output of a stable reference model. Simulation results are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed theoretical results.

Abstract

The wavelet transform-domain least-mean square (WTDLMS) algorithm uses the self-orthogonalizing technique to improve the convergence performance of LMS. In WTDLMS algorithm, the trade-off between the steady-state error and the convergence rate is obtained by the fixed step-size. In this paper, the WTDLMS adaptive algorithm with variable step-size (VSS) is established. The step-size in each subfilter changes according to the largest decrease in mean square deviation. The simulation results show that the proposed VSS-WTDLMS has faster convergence rate and lower misadjustment than ordinary WTDLMS.

Abstract

Performance of the linear models, widely used within the framework of adaptive line enhancement (ALE), deteriorates dramatically in the presence of non-Gaussian noises. On the other hand, adaptive implementation of nonlinear models, e.g. the Volterra filters, suffers from the severe problems of large number of parameters and slow convergence. Nonetheless, kernel methods are emerging solutions that can tackle these problems by nonlinearly mapping the original input space to the reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. The aim of the current paper is to exploit kernel adaptive filters within the ALE structure for speech signal enhancement. Performance of these nonlinear algorithms is compared with that of their linear as well as nonlinear Volterra counterparts, in the presence of various types of noises. Simulation results show that the kernel LMS algorithm, as compared to its counterparts, leads to a higher improvement in the quality of the enhanced speech. This improvement is more significant for non-Gaussian noises.

Abstract

Due to widespread use of Global Positioning System (GPS) in different applications, the issue of GPS signal interference cancelation is becoming an increasing concern. One of the most important intentional interferences is spoofing signals. An effective interference (delay spoof) reduction method based on adaptive filtering is developed in this paper. The principle of method is using adaptive filters to eliminate interference, obtain an estimate of interfering signal and subtract that from the corrupted signal. So, what remains in the output is the desired signal. Here, for updating the filter coefficients adaptive algorithms in both time (statistical and deterministic) and transform domain will be studied. The proposed adaptive filter is applied to a batch of spoofing GPS data in pseudo-range level. The results indicate that all investigated algorithms are able to reduce positioning steady-state miss-adjustment up to 70 percent. In this context, the variable step-size least mean square algorithm performs better than others do.

Abstract

In this paper, a new guidance law is designed to improve the performance of a homing missiles guidance system in terminal phase. For this purpose first of all, the two dimensions equations of motion are formulated, then the approximation dynamic of missile control loop is added to these equations which are nonlinear whit unmatched uncertainty. Then, a new adaptive back-stepping method is developed in order to control this system. An adaptive term is used in the control law that is converged to the uncertainty. This convergence is proved based on Lyapunov stability theorem. Therefore using this adaptive term in the control law can be eliminated the uncertainty. Based on this algorithm, a new guidance law is designed. Then its performance is compared with common guidance laws in a guidance loop simulation in the presence of control loop dynamics.

Abstract

This paper addresses a new method for decreasing error in secure chaotic communication which utilizes an adaptive law in demodulator part. The basic tools in this process are the Total Least Square as the fundamental technique in demodulating section and a chaotic signal as the carrier one which impose some complexities on the overall system. This algorithm may be used in digital filter for estimating parameters with lower error. Using this approach an improvement can be achieved in estimating the desired signal in comparison with two famous methods, namely, ordinary Least Mean Square (LMS) and Constrained-Stability LMS (CS-LMS). An illustrative example has been used to verify the presented technique through numerical simulation.

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to design a supplementary controller for traditional PID controller in order to damp the frequency oscillations in a micro-grid. Q-learning, which is used for supervise a classical PID controller in this paper, is a model free and a simple solution method of reinforcement learning (RL). RL is one of the branches of the machine learning, which is the main solution method of Markov decision process (MDPs). The proposed control mechanism is consisting of two main parts. The first part is a classical PID controller which is fixed tuned using Salp swarm algorithm. The second part is a Q‑learning based control strategy which is consistent and updates its characteristics according to the changes in the system continuously. Eventually, a hybrid micro-grid is considered to evaluate the performance of the suggested control method compared to classical PID and fractional order fuzzy PID (FOFPID) controllers. The considered hybrid system is consisting of renewable energy resources such as solar-thermal power station (STPS) and wind turbine generation (WTG), along with several energy storage devices such as batteries, flywheel and ultra-capacitor with physical constraints and time delays. Simulations are carried out in various realistic scenarios considering system parameter variations along with changing in operating conditions. Results indicate that the proposed control strategy has an excellent dynamic response compared to the traditional PID and FOFPID controllers for damping the frequency oscillations in different operating conditions.

Abstract

This paper proposes an adaptive approximation-based controller for uncertain strict-feedback nonlinear systems with unknown dead-zone nonlinearity. Dead-zone constraint is represented as a combination of a linear system with a disturbance-like term. This work invokes neural networks (NNs) as a linear-in-parameter approximator to model uncertain nonlinear functions that appear in virtual and actual control laws. Minimal learning parameter (MLP) algorithm is proposed to decrease the computational load, the number of adjustable parameters, and to avoid the “explosion of learning parameters” problem. An adaptive TSK-type fuzzy system is proposed to estimate the disturbance-like term in the dead-zone description which further will be used to compensate the effect of the dead-zone, and it does not require the availability of the dead-zone input. Then, the proposed method based on the dynamic surface control (DSC) method is designed which avoids the “explosion of complexity” problem. Proposed scheme deals with dead-zone nonlinearity and uncertain dynamics without requiring the availability of any knowledge about them, and it develops a control input without singularity concern. Stability analysis shows that all the signals of the closed-loop system are semi-globally uniformly ultimately bounded and the tracking error converges to the vicinity of the origin. Simulation and comparison results verify the acceptable performance of the presented controller.

Abstract

Control center of modern power system utilizes state estimation as an important function. In such structures, voltage phasor of buses is known as state variables that should be determined during operation. To specify the optimal operation of all components, an accurate estimation is required. Hence, various mathematical and heuristic methods can be applied for the mentioned goal. In this paper, an advanced power system state estimator is presented based on the adaptive neuro-fuzzy interface system. Indeed, this estimator uses advantages of both artificial neural networks and fuzzy method simultaneously. To analyze the operation of estimator, various scenarios are proposed including impact of load uncertainty and probability of false data injection as the important issues in the electrical energy networks. In this regard, the capability of false data detection and correction are also evaluated. Moreover, the operation of presented estimator is compared with artificial neural networks and weighted least square estimators. The results show that the adaptive neuro-fuzzy estimator overcomes the main drawbacks of the conventional methods such as accuracy and complexity as well as it is able to detect and correct the false data more precisely. Simulations are carried out on IEEE 14-bus and 30-bus test systems to demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach.

Abstract

In recent years, the increasing of non-dispatchable resources has posed severe challenges to the operation planning of power systems. Since these resources are random in nature, the issue of flexibility to cover their uncertainty and variability has become an important research topic. Therefore, having flexible resources to cover changes in the generation of these resources during their operation can play an essential role in eliminating node imbalances, system reliability, providing the required flexible ramping capacity, and reducing system operating costs. Among flexibility resources, there are quick-act generation units such as gas units that can play an important role in covering net load changes. Also, on the demand side, the optimal design of demand response programs as responsive resources to price and incentive signals, by modifying the system load factor can prevent severe ramps at net load, especially during peak load hours, and as a result, increase system flexibility while decreasing operational cost of the power system. In this paper, unlike the existing literature, the effect of the mentioned flexibility resources (both on the generation side and the demand side) in day-ahead operation planning under high penetration of wind generation units has been studied on the IEEE RTS 24-bus test system. Also, for this scheduling, a mixed-integer, two-stage, and tri-level adaptive robust optimization have been used, which is solved by column-and-constraint generation decomposition-based algorithm to clear the energy and ramping capacity reserve jointly.

Abstract

Fair distribution of generated power has a significant impact on the performance of the power system. Many methods have been proposed for the safe and secure operation of power systems under the uncertainties of distributed generators and system load. In this paper, we present an optimal power distribution algorithm for distributed generators against uncertainties and load changes of direct-current and alternating-current transmission systems. In this optimal algorithm, considering the stable-state constraints for all uncertainties is performed. In order to establish these constraints at the lowest cost, the adaptive droop coefficients are employed to optimize the power sharing, reloading and modifying the power coefficient of each distributed generator in the power system. Simulation results show the efficiency of the proposed method to improve the performance of the system and reduce the total cost. The voltage/power deviation from reference value in the proposed method is about 1-1.5% where in the conventional droop control, it is more than 2-3%. In addition, in the same uncertainty of the load/distributed generator power in the test system, proposed method requires 20% less power redistribution compared to the conventional droop method. Also, total cost increasing (due to uncertainty increasing) in the conventional droop method is higher than the proposed method (about 10-15%) which shows the robustness of the suggested method against uncertainty changes.

Abstract

Through beamforming, the desired signal is estimated by calculating the weighted sum of the input signals of an array of antenna elements. In the classical beamforming methods, computing the optimal weight vector requires prior knowledge on the direction of arrival (DoA) of the desired signal sources. However, in practice, the DoA of the signal of interest is unknown. In this paper, we introduce two different deep-neural-network-based beamformers which can estimate the signal of interest while suppressing noise and interferences in two/three stages when the DoAs are unknown. Employing deep neural networks (DNNs) such as convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and bidirectional long short-term memory (bi-LSTM) networks enables the proposed method to have better performance than existing methods. In most cases, the output signal to interference and noise ratio (SINR) of the proposed beamformer is more than 10dB higher than the output SINR of the classical beamformers.

Abstract

A novel nonlinear controller is proposed to track active and reactive power for a Brushless Doubly-Fed Induction Generator (BDFIG) wind turbine. Due to nonlinear dynamics and the presence of parametric uncertainties and perturbations in this system, sliding mode control is employed. To generate a smooth control signal, dynamic sliding mode method is used. Uncertainties bound is not required in the suggested algorithm, since the adaptive gain in the controller relation is used in this study. Convergence of the sliding variable to zero and adaptive gain to the uncertainty bound are verified using Lyapunov stability theorem. The proposed controller is evaluated in a comprehensive simulation on the BDFIG model. Moreover, output performance of the proposed control algorithm is compared to the conventional and second-order sliding mode and proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controllers.

Abstract

With the intricate interplay between clinical and pathological data in coronary heart disease (CHD) diagnosis, there is a growing interest among researchers and healthcare providers in developing more accurate and reliable predictive methods. In this paper, we propose a new method entitled the robust artificial neural network classifier (RANNC) technique for the prediction of CHD. The dataset CHD in this paper has imbalanced data, and in addition, it has some outlier values. The dataset consists of information related to 4240 samples with 16 attributes. Due to the presence of outliers, a robust method has been used to scale the dataset. On the other hand, due to the imbalance of CHD data, three data balancing methods, including Random Over Sampling (ROS), Synthetic Minority Over Sampling Technique (SMOTE), and Adaptive Synthetic Sampling (ADASYN) approaches, have been applied to the CHD data set. Also, six artificial intelligence algorithms, including LRC, DTC, RFC, KNNC, SVC, and ANN, have been evaluated on the considered dataset with criteria such as precision, accuracy, recall, F1-score, and MCC. The RANNC, leveraging ADASYN to address data imbalance and outliers, significantly improved CHD diagnostic accuracy and the reliability of healthcare predictive models. It outperformed other artificial intelligence methods, achieving precision, accuracy, recall, F1-score, and MCC scores of 95.57%, 96.90%, 99.70%, 97.59%, and 93.42%, respectively.

Abstract

Visible Light Communication, a key optical wireless technology, offers reliable, high-bandwidth, and secure communication, making it a promising soloution for a variety of applications. Despite its many advantages, optical wireless communication faces challenges in medical environments due to fluctuating signal strength caused by patient movement. Smart transmitter structures can improve system performance by adjusting system parameters to the fluctuating channel conditions. The purpose of this research is to examine how adaptive modulation performs in a medical body sensor network system that uses visible light communication. The analysis focuses on various medical situations and investigates machine learning algorithms. The study compares adaptive modulation based on supervised learning with that based on reinforcement learning. The findings indicate that both approaches greatly improve spectral efficiency, emphasizing the significance of implementing link adaptation in visible light communication-based medical body sensor networks. The use of the Q-learning algorithm in adaptive modulation enables real-time training and enables the system to adjust to the changing environment without any prior knowledge about the environment. A remarkable improvement is observed for photodetectors on the shoulder and wrist since they experience more DC gain.

Abstract

In this paper, a Lyapunov-based adaptive 2nd-order sliding mode controller is proposed to control the current in an active power filter (APF). The penetration of APFs has been exponentially increased because of their high flexibility and fewer resonance problems. Moreover, they can compensate high range of current harmonics and reactive power. The voltage and current control loops have always been interesting areas for researchers since the satisfactory performance of the APF is highly dependent on these control loops. A sliding mode controller (SMC) is a mighty controller when uncertain conditions are considered. However, in order to reduce the chattering- high-frequency switching- and improve the steady state operation, stability, and robustness of the controller, it is usually decided to adaptively tune the gains of the controller. In this paper, a simple-structure adaptive SMC (ASMC) is proposed which can be implemented easily. This ASMC is shown to be stable using the Lyapunov theorem and proved with SIMULINK simulation that it has less steady state error, less chattering, and faster dynamic response compared to the conventional SMC.
