After the development of electronic components, the elimination of the sensors has become a necessary subject to get good results in the field of speed control, because of the price of the sensors, the strenuous choice of its position and the disturbance of measurement which affects the robustness of control. The luenberger observer showed to be one of the most excellent methods suggested by the researchers; this is due to the best performance, it offers in terms of stability, reliability and less counting effort. In this article, a study of luenberger observer based on neural network-based was discussed. This artificial intelligence method makes it possible to decrease the error of estimated speed for IRFOC control of the induction motor. Simulation results are obtained to show the robustness and stability of the system.

This paper displays a Fly Back Converter idea to straightforwardly incorporate cascaded flyback converter. The flyback-converter finds a way between DC-source and DC Motor-load. This work covenants with the modeling, simulation, and application of a Fuzzy Logic controlled (FLC) - Cascaded Fly back Converter (CFLB) system. This work recommends FLC to control Parallel cascaded fly-back converter to fabricate essential DC voltage from the input supply voltage. The yield of CFLB is controlled utilizing closed loop configuration. Closed loop PI & Fuzzy logic controlled CFLB systems are simulated and their results are related. The outcomes signify that the FLC based system gave a superior response than the P.I. controlled CFLB system. The FLC controlled CFLB system has benefits like decreased steady state error and enhanced time domain-response.

Current control scheme is commonly used in high voltage direct current (HVDC) to transmit power delivery. This scheme is done by adjusting trigger angle to regulate direct current (DC) in thyristor devices. The adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) control is widely applied for start and fault operation. But, solution for transient response of DC current in HVDC system is not clearly studied before. In this paper, supplementary control (SC) based on ANFIS is proposed to improve the transient response of the current. The SC control is designed by learning-processes and SC parameters are obtained by data-training automatically. For current reference at 1.05 pu and up-ramp at 20 pu/s, maximum overshoot is achieved at 5.12% and 7.72% for the SC and proportional integral controller (PIC), respectively. When the up-ramp is increased to 28 pu/s, the maximum overshoot is achieved at 10.01% for the SC. While, the peak overshoot for the PIC is 14.28%.

This work presents a fast response and stable computer based a brushed DC motor speed controller. The controller configured of gate drive circuits for H-Bridge accompanied with data acquisition unit DAQ-6211. These gate drive circuits include, phase comparator, current booster and wave forms cleaning circuits. An optical encoder is used for motor speed to frequency conversion. The CD4046 PLL chip compares phases of the encoder output frequency (motor speed) with a reference frequency (desired speed). The obtained phase difference (error) is used to allocate the suitable PWM duty cycles. An H-Bridge BJT switches driven by PWM is interfaced with the motor. The system hardware is provided with a simple and accurate data acquisition unit DAQ-6211 to be interfaced with the LabVIEW software Package. This allows monitoring and storing the different measured data of this platform. The system relative stability is determined and examined based on the Bode plot analysis and design. Then the relative stability criterion (Phase Margin) is measured the closed-loop stability of the system. This system considers the fast feedback response with indication of its stability state as well as the stable wide dynamic range. It compensates the changes in system parameters due to the environmental effects and other disturbances.

The topology of SEPIC "Single-ended primary inductance converter" is considered as a suitable option for automotive power system where the value of the output voltage should be ranging between the low and high values of the input value of voltage. The main feature of the DC-DC converter is the stability of output voltage. This paper shows the SEPIC converter employing PID converter to be used in industrial applications. A SEPIC DC-DC converter can manage either step-down mode or step-up mode. The benefit of using this circuit is to supply a stable and controlled output voltage no matter how much the input voltage is. The simulated behaviors of the uncontrolled and controlled SEPIC converter are presented in this paper. The PID controller based on bat algorithm (BA) optimization method is used for searching of the best Proportional–Integral-Derivative (PID) gains. The solution has given very good performance and whatever the output reference voltage variation and load disturbance of the system.

The power system deregulation requires thechange in reactive power compensation in the power system. The optimal placement of FACTs (Flexi ble AC transmission system) devices is mandatory to recalculate the reactive power compensation in deregulation case. The FACTs devices generally used in series and shunt conections. Here the various facts devices connected in series & shunt combination simultaneously. The optimal placement and sizing of the devices are done in this paper by formulating the objective function with minimization of cost of the generation and minimizing the cost of Facts devices. MALAB is used for writing the code. IEEE 14 bus system is used to here for testing the system. Placing the FACTs separately and simultaneously are studied in case study. Cuckoo search algorithm is used to identify the solution to the optimization problem.

The controls of power generation by the inverter-based generator are proposed in this work. The proposed control adjusts the active power output by varying the phase angle instead of the conventional frequency variation. The benefit of operating the network by a fixed frequency is that it eradicates the problems associated with the frequency deviation. The PID controls with recommended gain adjustment are proposed to control the power generation. The power generation schemes are adapted from the classical power generation by the synchronous generator, where the modes of operation are Swing, PV and PQ mode. The proposed three modes of operation are adequate to operate fully in a small-scale power system such as in an islanded microgrid. A case study of operating the proposed controls in a microgrid by simulation is used to demonstrate the feasibility of implementation of the controls.

In recent years, the fast progress in the field and the application of the electronic system transmission plays an important role to make the system more reliable, controllable and efficient. It opened new opportunities for the application of the FACTS devices. The Flexible Alternating Current Transmissions System technology (FACTS) is used to have an optimal continuous power flow and open up new opportunities for controlling the electric system network. The UPFC (Unified Power Flow Controller) is one of the most versatile and complex power electric devices in the FACTS family. UPFC can control the active and the reactive power flow, a local bus voltage, it can also result a problem due to harmonics. In that regard, this paper presents a case study in which the PSAT software was implemented to comparing and analyzing the performance of the hybrid compensators namely (SVC/TCSC), (STATCOM/SSSC) and the UPFC in network coupled to wind farm. The Static Var Compensator (SVC) is a first shunt generation FACTS controller. TCSC (thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor) is consisted as a series compensating capacitor shunted by a thyristor controlled reactor. We can see that the UPFC controller has an effective power flow control, less setting time and less overshoot. The UPFC obtained a well known reputation for high controllability in power systems. The multilevel UPFC can be operated in STATCOM (Static Synchronous Compensator), in SSSC (Static Synchronous Series Compensator) and exactly in the UPFC mode. The results using Jacobian matrix in Newton-Raphson algorithm of UPFC are more significant compared to the hybrid (SVC/TCSC) and the (STATCOM/SSSC) controllers.

This paper presents a design of the wireless charging system for e-byke applications. The double-side LCC compensation circuit is used to achieve high efficiency and reduce the volt-ampere rating. A new constant current/voltage (CC/CV) charging control method at the transmitter side is proposed to avoid dual side wireless communication. This paper also presents a simple method of estimating both the coupling coefficient and load impedance only from the transmitter side. A wireless charging system of 2.5kW is built. Error in the CC/CV charging mode is 3.3% and 1.12%, respectively. System efficiency reaches 92.1% in CC charging mode.

In this paper, an optimization of PV grid connected system is investigated. This is achieved by considering the application of artificial intelligence in the DC side to realize maximal power extraction, and using a sine-band hysteresis control in the AC side of the system, to generate a sine current/voltage suitable for grid connection IEEE929-2000 standards. The overall system has been simulated taking into account environmental effects and standards constraints in order to achieve best performance. The choice of sine band hysteresis control was selected considering its implementation simplicity. The algorithm runs fast on a low-cost microcontroller allowing to avoid any delay that can cause a phase shift in the system. An experimental setup has been realized for tests and validation purposes. Both simulation and experimental results lead to satisfactory results which are conform to the IEEE929-2000 standards.
