Abstract

In our proposed approach, we integrate ADA boosting with particle swarm optimization-extreme learning machine (PSO-ELM) to enhance the accuracy of wind power estimation, addressing the inherent unpredictability and variability in wind energy. Initially, we refine the thresholds and input weights of the extreme learning machine (ELM) and then construct the PSO-ELM prediction model. ADA Boost is utilized to generate multiple weak predictors, each comprising a distinct hidden layer node. The PSO technique is then employed to optimize the input weights and thresholds for each weak predictor. The final forecast is attained by amalgamating and weighting the outcomes from each weak predictor using a robust wind power forecast model. Experimental validation utilizing data from Turkish wind turbines underscores the efficacy of our approach. Comparative analysis against contemporary techniques such as ensemble learning models and optimal neural networks reveals that our ADA-PSO-ELM model demonstrates superior accuracy and generalizability in predicting wind power output under real-world conditions. The proposed approach offers a promising framework for addressing the challenges associated with wind power estimation, thereby facilitating more reliable and efficient utilization of wind energy resources.

Abstract

This paper presents extensive research on improving the power conversion efficiency of five-level multilevel inverters (MLIs) by utilizing a reduced switch topology. MLIs have received an abundance of focus because of their ability to generate high-quality output waveforms and have better harmonic outcomes than traditional two-level inverters. The high number of switches in MLIs, on the other hand, can result in increased power losses and lower overall efficiency. In this paper, a novel reduced switch topology for five-level MLIs, which is having five switches is proposed with the aim of minimizing power losses while preserving superior performance due to lesser number of switches. To achieve efficient power conversion, the proposed topology employs advanced pulse width modulation control strategies and optimized switching patterns. The simulation results show that the minimized switch topology improves the power conversion efficiency of the five-level MLI, resulting in lower losses and better overall system performance. The total harmonic distortion (THD) value of the output current has been reduced to 7.12% and the efficiency has been achieved to 96.92%. The findings of this investigation help to advance MLI technology, allowing for more efficient and reliable power conversion in a variety of applications such as renewable energy systems, electric vehicles, and industrial drives.
