<![CDATA[Multilevel inverters have become the preferred choice for medium voltage and high-power applications due to their superior waveform quality, reduced stress on switching components, and overall enhanced performance. Among these, the cascaded H-bridge inverter stands out for its simpler control and modulation techniques, as well as its greater efficiency compared to other multilevel inverter topologies. This paper presents the design and performance evaluation of a cascaded H-bridge multilevel inverter (CHMI) for five, seven, nine, eleven, thirteen, and fifteen levels, utilizing sinusoidal pulse width modulation (SPWM) in MATLAB Simulink. The proposed technique, the multi-sinusoidal reference, is implemented by comparing multiple sinusoidal wave signals with a carrier triangular signal, with the resulting comparison pulses used to control the inverter's switching. The output results indicate that as the number of levels in multilevel inverters increases, the total harmonic distortion (THD) decreases, and the output voltage improves.]]>

<![CDATA[A wireless sensor network (WSN) is a distributed wireless system that employs sensor nodes to perform various tasks, including sensing, monitoring, data transmission, and delivering information to users via internet communication. Resource availability in WSNs is a critical factor influencing data delivery performance. One of the main challenges is the rapid depletion of resources, particularly batteries, which play a pivotal role in the system’s operational sustainability. This study evaluates the impact of battery adaptation through four testing scenarios. The results show that implementing battery adaptation significantly extends system lifespan compared to scenarios without adaptation. In the scenario without both a classification algorithm and adaptation, the system lasts approximately 270 minutes. When battery adaptation is applied without a classification algorithm, the lifespan increases to 330 minutes and 30 seconds. In contrast, the scenario using a classification algorithm without adaptation yields a lifespan of about 185 minutes, while combining the classification algorithm with adaptation extends it to approximately 252 minutes. The findings demonstrate that battery adaptation enhances the longevity and resource efficiency of WSN systems. However, the use of a classification algorithm tends to reduce operational time compared to scenarios that do not employ such algorithms.]]>

<![CDATA[Off-grid hybrid electrical systems have become a viable option for sustainable energy solutions, meeting the energy supply needs of rural communities. These systems use a broad approach to tackle sustainability, dependability, and environmental protection problems. The suggested hybrid system combines battery storage, biogas generators, and solar photovoltaic (PV) to provide a reliable and strong energy source for Ivoko Village in Enugu State using particle swarm optimization (PSO) and HOMER Pro Software. The paper compares three different configurations of sustainable power systems (HRES) to determine the best architecture that is suitable for rural areas. The result shows that case-1 (biogas/PV/bat) is the best option, with net present cost (NPC) and cost of energy (COE) values of $1,225,914 and 0.2865$/kWh, respectively. The results show that the PSO-based hybrid power system is more cost-effective than the HOMER-based optimizer. The NPC and lower COE for meeting peak demands emphasize the increasing role of biogas system generators as a cost-effective local power source. This highlights the PSO's potential in maximizing hybrid renewable power systems for rural areas, offering a financially viable and sustainable energy solution.]]>

<![CDATA[This study introduces a simple dead-time control signal for the non-isolated synchronous buck DC-DC converter, incorporated alongside maximum power point tracking (MPPT) for a stand-alone photovoltaic (PV) system. Dead-time control in non-isolated DC-DC converters is challenging due to difficulties in accurately sensing and predicting errors, especially during the transition between switching modes. The introduction of the dead-time control method resulted in optimal efficiency for the stand-alone PV system. The dead-time control was implemented in the hardware prototype using a bootstrap technique. Power generation from the PV module was optimized through the DC converter's implementation of an improved perturb and observe (P&O) MPPT approach. According to the results, the proposed design achieved an overall system efficiency of 80%. Moreover, the enhanced P&O MPPT algorithm prototype was observed to produce a maximum output power of 60 W.]]>

<![CDATA[A solar tracker is a combination of mechanical and electrical systems that can be used to move a solar panel to follow the sun's direction. This solar tracker system is expected to optimize the output power of photovoltaics. Based on existing research, many solar tracking systems have been developed using active tracking methods to increase the power consumption of the components of solar trackers. Therefore, a passive solar tracking system was used to reduce the solar tracker's internal energy consumption. In this study, a passive smart discrete solar tracker was designed with 3 positions and 5 tracking positions based on a fuzzy-ant colony controller (ACO). The design of a passive solar tracker based on a fuzzy-ACO has a performance index (average) with a rise time of 0.45 s, a settling time of 0.701 s, a maximum overshoot of 0.5%, and a steady-state error of 0.05%. From the design, the 3-position passive solar tracker with fuzzy-ACO control can increase efficiency with a gross energy gain of 42.79% for 10 hours compared to a fixed PV. The 5-position passive solar tracker using fuzzy-ACO control increased the efficiency with a gross energy gain of 43.99%.]]>

<![CDATA[The rapid integration of wind energy conversion systems (WECS) into modern power networks has led to pressing power quality concerns, including voltage instability, harmonic distortion, and reactive power imbalance. To address these challenges, this study introduces a hybrid optimization strategy that combines the global search capabilities of the enhanced honey badger algorithm (EnHBA) with the local exploitation strengths of the grey wolf optimizer (GWO) for the best operational parameters of a unified power quality conditioner (UPQC). Extensive simulations in MATLAB Simulink demonstrate significant improvement in performance. The proposed method achieves 95% energy efficiency, a power factor of 0.99, and total harmonic distortion (THD) down to 5%, meeting IEEE 519-2022 standards. This outcome reflects an effective balance between cost and power quality performance, highlighting the potential of hybrid optimization to improve grid stability and efficiency in renewable energy environments.]]>

<![CDATA[This paper presents an optimal control system for enhancing road feel in a steer-by-wire (SbW) system using fuzzy logic control (FLC) optimized with modified quantum particle swarm optimization (MQPSO). The objective is to improve the driver experience by providing realistic torque feedback, thereby replicating the steering sensations typically generated by road conditions. This feedback is essential for conveying information about vehicle dynamics and road surface variations through opposing torque applied to the steering interface. An artificial intelligence-based control system utilizing FLC was developed to manage the road feel feedback within the SbW system. The inputs to the FLC include steering angle, vehicle speed, and steering ratio, as well as key physical factors such as inertia and friction, all of which influence the generation of steering torque. The FLC parameters were optimized using MQPSO to achieve a more accurate and responsive road feel torque output. A Simulink model was constructed to simulate the proposed system. The simulation results demonstrate that the optimized FLC significantly improves the performance of the steering motor torque feedback mechanism. This study contributes to the advancement of steer-by-wire technology by proposing an optimal torque control framework and highlighting the effectiveness of integrating FLC with MQPSO in enhancing road feel dynamics.]]>

<![CDATA[Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) play a crucial role in various domains, including military, industrial, and environmental applications, due to their capability to monitor and transmit data efficiently. However, one of the major challenges in WSNs is energy consumption, as sensor nodes rely on limited power sources for data acquisition, processing, and communication. Efficient energy management is essential to prolong network lifespan and maintain performance. To address this issue, several energy-efficient routing techniques have been developed. Among these, the low-energy adaptive clustering hierarchy (LEACH) has gained significant attention for its ability to optimize power consumption through hierarchical clustering. This study investigates the performance of the LEACH protocol under different deployment configurations. We proposed and evaluate a circular sensing field as an alternative to the traditional square and rectangular field. Simulation results show that the circular field achieves better energy efficiency and network longevity across various packet sizes and base station (BS) locations. These findings highlight the importance of deployment geometry in enhancing WSN sustainability.]]>

<![CDATA[This paper introduces a novel boosting multilevel inverter that utilizes switched capacitors. Current multilevel inverters (MLIs) face several issues, such as complex structures, intricate switching controls, and challenges in generating gate pulses, numerous components, and high voltage stress on semiconductors. The increase in the number of levels adds to the complexity and cost of the circuit and can reduce reliability in some cases. The proposed topology creates a 7-level voltage waveform using 9 switches, 1 diode, and 2 capacitors, and it triples the voltage gain. The capacitors maintain self balanced operation without the need for additional circuits. A simple logic gate-based pulse-width modulation (PWM) technique is presented to ensure power balancing of the capacitors. The proposed 7-level switched capacitor boosting multilevel inverter features a reduced switch count, lower voltage stress, and built-in fault tolerance. The paper includes a comprehensive comparison of various related topologies. The proposed topology is simulated in PSIM, with simulation results presented for different parameters.]]>
