The effect of process and temperature variations are becoming more dominant with technology scaling, especially for RF circuits, wherein even the minute variability in FETs and passive devices have a significant impact on the overall circuit behavior. Due to stringent power and performance specification requirements in the latest Wireless/RF applications, reasonable compensation for the process, voltage and temperature variations, is even more critical. In this paper, the design of a 2.4GHz operated, ultra-low power CMOS down-converting active mixer fabricated in standard 180 nm RF CMOS technology has been presented. The mixer is based on double balanced Gilbert-cell resistor-loaded topology. The effects of process and temperature variations on the designed mixer have been investigated and various compensation techniques relevant to the current design have been analyzed.

This paper proposes a novel scheme for the total cross tied interconnection of photovoltaic modules for reducing partial shading losses and thus power generation. The performance improvement over classical total-cross-tied connection has been validated by extensive simulation results. The novel scheme of arrangement is also compared with the optimal total cross tied configuration and results show that the new scheme of arrangement showed very similar operational characteristics. The rearrangement of modules is performed without varying the electrical connection of the modules in the array. This reduces the multiple local maxima in power-voltage (P-V) characteristics and improves the nominal voltage of PV array. Thus, tracking of global maximum power point (GMPP) in the present approach is simpler. The performance of the system is investigated for five different shading patterns.

In this work, the most common problem of the modern power system named optimal power flow (OPF) is optimized using the novel meta-heuristic optimisation algorithm Moth-Flame Optimizer (MFO). MFO is inspired by the navigation strategy of Moths in universe. MFO has a fast convergence rate due to use of roulette wheel selection method. In order to resolve the optimal power flow problem, standard IEEE-30 bus system is used. MFO is implemented for the solution of proposed problem. The problems considered in the OPF problem are Fuel Cost Reduction, Active Power Loss Minimization, and Reactive Power Loss Minimization. The results obtained by MFO is compared with other techniques such as Flower Pollination Algorithm (FPA) and Particle Swarm Optimizer (PSO). Results shows that MFO gives better optimisation values as compared with FPA and PSO that confirms the effectiveness of the suggested algorithm.

Harnessing electrical power from Renewable Energy Sources (RES) to the grid in a more efficient way requires a power electronic converter. But the power electronic devices introduce harmonics thus affecting the quality of power. A high performance controller is essential to control the real and reactive power flow between the RES and grid without affecting the quality of power. In this paper, grid connected Renewable Energy System is modeled as single phase equivalent circuit and an optimal control law is derived using Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR). The reference currents are generated using instantaneous real - reactive (p - q) theory to have low grid current Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) and power factor closer to unity in the grid side. To show the supremacy of the LQR method, simulation results are compared with the conventional Hysteresis Controller (HC) for three phase three wire system with balanced grid voltage conditions. It is inferred from the results that LQR is superior in its tracking ability and has better stability.

Wind energy is a prime sector of the composite renewable energy sector which is supposed to be the prime energy producing force in years to come [1]. The ever increasing demand of wind energy and its renewable nature has led to an emphatic push in development of this sector. Wind speed has been one of those important parameters which form the basic element for design of any wind energy system. Thus, in order to build effective systems, exemplary assessment of wind speed deviation is single handedly the most mandatory parameter that is required to be studied. This leads us to investigate probability density functions which are used to describe wind speed frequency distributions. In this paper, we have modeled wind speed characteristics with respect to Weibull, Rayleigh, Gamma distributions and have simultaneously compared them with respect to statistical parameters such as Chi-square error test, Root mean square error and R2 test as ruling criteria to evaluate the pertinence of the respective distribution functions. Weibull and Gamma give a good fit with Weibull giving a better fit.

Based on distributed parameters line model, a current differential protection for extra high voltage and ultra high voltage (EHV/UHV) transmission lines is proposed in this paper. The distributed capacitance current in such lines has a severe negative impact on relaying of current differential protection. Thus the influence of distributive capacitive current on its protection during line to ground fault is carried out. In order to verify that current differential protection is influenced by capacitive current, capacitive reactance of transmission line is increased so that capacitive effect of line is reduced. An extensive simulation is carried out using PSCAD. The result shows that compensation of capacitive current in lines is necessary in proposed method to suppress its adverse effect on relaying of healthy phase.

Efficient Overlay Based Parallel data mining architecture is introduced for improving scalability. This architecture is designed on the basis of physical networks and integration of overlay. The proposed methodology introduced an appropriate overlay network construction scheme and data allocation principle. The process of data distribution is to reduce the traffic load whereas maintaining the service availability. This will generate and upload big data such as pdf for mapping process. Experimental results show that the proposed integration MapReduce technique will perform the mapping process as well as the reduction process successfully for big data mining also. After the completion of mapping, the main node performs reduction process. It improves the service availability against server breakdowns.

The Loads in distribution systems are mostly inductive this coming from nature of system such as transformer and transmission lines, and most devices used in house is motors with reactive power consuming. For these reasons and others it will cases to reduce the voltage profiles and increases in power losses. The most distribution system is radially connected, the high voltage distribution system 33kv doesn't severe from low voltage problems; this is coming from nature of high voltage it is low voltage drop in transmission line and also the almost the substation 33kv supplied with capacitor banks. However The medium voltage distribution system 11kv, and low voltage distribution system 0.4kv are severe from low voltage problems at buses; this is coming from nature of high current in low voltage systems will cause high voltage drop in its wires, and these distribution systems are radial connection without capacitor banks. In this paper presented optimal capacitor placement and sizing to overcome to the low voltage problem and total power loss reduction of both these distribution systems. Simulation results are investigated on realistic in realistic radial feeder 11kv of alkaherat network 33kv which represent one of Karbala 33kv distribution system networks, feeds rural area with 20-bus load system of aburwaia region, after that apply to 0.4kv radial distribution system with 26-bus load system of alzwaia region one load of the feeder above. Results such as voltage support and power losses are analyzed. Different simulation results to optimal capacitor placement to voltage support, and minimizes power losses are analyzed by using Genetic Algorithms (GA) implemented in the ETAP software.

Energy and water are the main resource that needs to be conserved in the first place all over the world. Since industrial revolution the scarcity of Energy and Water begin to snowball. The use of energy rose rapidly due to the consumption of fossil fuels. By degrading these fossil fuels it lead to pollutant augmentation in ground water which is used for drinking purpose. So, there is a need to conserve the energy resources as well as water to promote energy efficiency and sustainability. This can be achieved through renewable energy sources like solar, wind, hydro, and biomassetc. The renewable energy is a clean and green energy and the most promising alternative technology which promotes sustainable development. The energy of solar is abundant all over the world especially in India. This solar energy must be utilized in an efficient way such that the electric consumption can be gradually minimized. In this paper, a evacuated tube collector (ETC) type solar water heater is integrated with the desalination unit subsequently that leads to acquire heating and purification of water with minimum heat losses in the respective hybrid system. The ETC type solar water heater stores water at high temperature whereas solar still requires heated water for increased evaporation as well as yield. Henceforth,by using this integrated system endorses thermal efficiency, sustainability, social and economic development in the societies.
