Abstract

The objective of this paper is to investigate the ability of analytical wake models to estimate the wake effects between wind turbines (WTs). The interaction of multiple wakes reduces the total power output produced by a large offshore wind farm (LOFWF). This power loss is due to the effect of turbine spacing (WTS), if the WTs are too close, the power loss is very significant. Therefore, the optimization of turbine positions within the offshore wind farm requires an understanding of the interaction of wakes inside the wind farm. To better understand the wake effect, the Horns Rev 1 offshore wind farm has been studied with four wake models, Jensen, Larsen, Ishihara, and Frandsen. A comparative study of the wake models has been performed in several situations and configurations, single and multiple wakes are taken into consideration. Results from the Horns Rev1 offshore wind farm case have  been evaluated and compared to observational data, and also  with the previous studies. The power output of a row of WTs is sensitive to the wind direction. For example, if a row of ten turbines is aligned with the 270° wind direction, the full wake condition of WTs is reached and the power deficit limit predicted by Jensen model exceeds 70%. When a wind direction changes only of  10° (260° and 280°), the deficit limit reduces to 30%. The obtained results show that a significant power deficit occurs when the turbines are arranged in an aligned manner. The findings also showed that all four models gave acceptable predictions of the total power output. The comparison between the calculated and reported power output of Horns Revs 1 showed that the differences ranged from - 8.27 MW (12.49%) to 15.27 MW (23.06%) for the Larsen and Frandsen models, respectively.

Abstract

Recently, constellation of satellites has drawn a lot of interest from academia and industry as potential solution for extensive coverage of wide range of internet of things (IoT). In this work, IoT devices was assumed to be covered by constellation of low-earth orbit (LEO) satellites where the medium access control (MAC) technique called slotted ALOHA is employed. In this article, we use a constellation of satellites to reduce the collision domain and enhancing performance in order to obtain maximum results. We have carried out some modeling and simulations to optimize the number of satellites with different erasure probabilities with respect to IoT devices in order to enhance throughput and stability of slotted ALOHA protocol using the network simulator 2 (NS2). The numerical results have shown an improvement in terms of throughput and stability. And the simulation of the same system using NS2 is conducted and shows a good correlation with the theoretical study. Where the throughput reached 0.82% instead of 0.52%. Our findings offer proof that this method helps to use large number of IoT, and reduce collisions compared to conventional slotted ALOHA.

Abstract

In the context of intelligent transportation systems (ITS) development, vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication plays a central role by enabling information exchange between vehicles (V2V), infrastructure (V2I), pedestrians (V2P), and the network (V2N). The effectiveness of these systems relies heavily on the performance of the antennas employed, which must meet strict requirements in terms of compactness, bandwidth, gain, and electromagnetic compatibility. One of the main challenges lies in designing antennas suitable for the embedded vehicular environment, where space is limited and the propagation conditions are complex. In this context, the present study aims to design, simulate, fabricate, and experimentally evaluate a planar inverted-F antenna (PIFA) dedicated to V2X communication in the 5.8 GHz band. The primary objective is to develop an antenna that is both compact and high-performing, tailored to the specific constraints of V2X applications. The adopted methodology involves a comprehensive parametric study, focusing on several key design parameters that influence the antenna’s performance, such as substrate selection, feeding point location, and the addition of a slot in the structure. These factors are analyzed to optimize the radiation characteristics, resonant frequency, and impedance matching of the antenna. The results demonstrate the feasibility of a PIFA antenna that offers an excellent trade-off between miniaturization and performance, making it well suited for V2X communication applications at 5.8 GHz.
