Power tracking controller design for photo-voltaic systems based on particle swarm optimization technique

Solar energy turns into a promising supply of electricity, so structures of Photo-voltaic (PV) regularly use a maximum power point tracking (MPPT) way to deliver the highest probable power to the load continuously. This paper presents the methodology of PI controller tuning of PV employing Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). The aim is to obtain the maximum power and maintain its value using the PI

Impact of Temporally Correlated Nakagami-m Interferers in D2D Cache-Aided Networks

In this paper, we exploit tools from stochastic geometry to characterize the average probability of successful content delivery in a cache-enabled device-to-device (D2D) network under Nakagami- m fading. Specifically, we focus on the impact of temporal interference correlation due to erroneous packets retransmissions. The aggregate network interference is characterized under a slotted Aloha scheme

The synthesis, production & economic feasibility of manufacturing PLA from agricultural waste

Synthetic plastics are extensively used in several applications including packaging, containers, bottles, trays, and boxes. However, these plastics are based on synthetic components which are not biodegradable, thus they rigorously effect the environment causing water, air pollution and high health risks. Moreover, Individuals are exposed to chemicals during manufacturing or usage of synthetic

Effect of the wall thermal boundary condition on the structure of a confined swirling diffusion flame

The present study focuses on the effect of the wall heat loss on a confined swirling diffusion flame. The objective is to assess the effect of changing the wall thermal boundary condition (i.e., from isothermal to adiabatic) on the flow structure, the flame shape, and the mixing behavior. Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes equations are solved. The diffusion flamelet model is employed in the

8-GHz low-power voltage-mode second-order allpass filter in 65-nm CMOS

In this paper, a CMOS wide-band low-power second-order voltage-mode allpass filter design is proposed as a true time delay element. The proposed allpass filter core design consists of a single transistor, three resistors, one capacitor and one inductor. As a time delay element, the proposed circuit exhibits a group delay of 34 ps within a bandwidth of 8 GHz while consuming only 926 μW from a 1-V
