The voltage generated by power plants is increased using step-up transformers and then transferred using high-voltage transmission lines. In a distribution system, the voltage is stepped down to certain levels and is utilized by consumers. The losses in distribution networks are very high compared with the transmission line losses because of the high value of the line resistance (R) compared with the reactance (X), high current, and low voltage. Distribution companies have an economic incentive to minimize network losses. Generally, the incentive is the difference between the actual losses and standard losses. Therefore, when the actual losses are greater than the standard losses, distribution companies are fined. If the actual losses are less than the standard losses, distribution companies earn profits. Consequently, the issue of power losses in distribution networks has attracted the attention of researchers. Numerous methods and techniques have been examined and implemented to reduce distribution system losses. These methods differ based on the selection of the loss reduction mechanism, formulation of the problem, technique utilized, and solution obtained. Many techniques are used to minimize losses, such as power factor correction, reconfiguration, distributed generation allocation, load balancing, voltage upgrades, and conductor upgrades. In this study, a literature review, general background on distribution loss minimization, and a comprehensive comparison of the main techniques are presented to examine the best methods for minimizing power losses.

The need for renewable energy access has led to the use of variable input converter approaches because renewable energy sources often generate electricity in an unpredictable manner. A high-performance multi-input boost converter is developed to provide the necessary output voltage and power while accommodating variations in input sources. This converter is specifically designed for the efficient usage of renewable energy. The proposed architecture integrates three separate unidirectional input power sources: photovoltaics, fuel cells, and storage system batteries. The architecture has five switches, and the implementation of each switch in the converter is achieved by applying the calculated duty ratios in various operating states. The closed-loop response of the converter with a proportional-integral (PI) controller-based switching system is examined by analyzing the Matlab-Simulink model utilizing a proportional-integral derivative (PID) tuner. The controller can deliver the desired output voltage of 400 V and an average power of 2 kW while exhibiting low switching transient effects. Therefore, the proposed multi-input interleaved boost converter demonstrates robust results for real-time applications by effectively harnessing renewable power sources.

Conventional sliding-mode observer (SMO)-based grid-voltage observation methods often require a low-pass filter (LPF) to remove high-frequency sliding-mode noise. However, a complicated phase- and amplitude-compensation method, which is highly sensitive to the DC-offset, is required. A frequency-adaptive dual second-order generalized integrator (SOGI) can be used to replace the LPF, eliminating the compensation link and the effects of the DC-offset; however, strong coupling is introduced between the front-end SOGI block and back-end phase-locked loop (PLL) block, thereby reducing the dynamic performance. To solve this problem, this study proposes an SMO-based grid-voltage observation method with a frequency-fixed dual SOGI and cross-compensated PLL that can eliminate the frequency coupling between the front-end SOGI block and back-end PLL blocks, thereby increasing its dynamic performance. In this study, the phase and amplitude are compensated simultaneously using the proposed cross-compensation method, achieving an accurate observation of the grid voltage under off-nominal frequencies. An analysis of the small-signal model theoretically verified that the proposed method has good dynamic performance. Finally, the superiority of the proposed method is verified through comparative experiments.

Droop-controlled voltage-source converters (VSCs) can provide frequency and voltage support to power grids. However, during a grid fault, VSCs may experience transient instability, which can be significantly affected by both the control parameters and fault conditions. This mechanism has not been fully elucidated in previous studies. In particular, grid-voltage faults are commonly accompanied by a grid voltage phase-angle jump (VPAJ), which is typically ignored in the evaluation of the transient stability of VSCs. To address this issue, this study comprehensively assesses the impact of the VPAJ and key control parameters on the transient characteristics of VSCs. Furthermore, the critical clearing angle and critical clearing time are quantitatively calculated to define the transient stability boundary. In addition, a transient stability-enhancement control method that considers the transient stability constraints is proposed. Finally, simulations and experimental tests are conducted to validate both the theoretical analysis and proposed method.

Capacitor voltage imbalance in four-level (4L) neutral-point clamped (NPC) converters is a direct factor hindering their application. In particular, when they are applied in motor drives, space vector pulse-width modulation (SVPWM) is a more popular scheme, but conventional 4L SVPWM cannot achieve the voltage balancing control of DC-link capacitors, is complex to implement, and requires costly computation. A hybrid modulation method with capacitor voltage-balancing control for 4L NPC converters is proposed. The proposed method is achieved using three-level (3L) SVPWM and two-level (2L) carrier-based pulse-width modulation (CPWM) based on the concept of “4L=3L+2L”. Thus, it can be easily implemented on a digital chip because the modulation process is nearly identical to that of 3L SVPWM without the more cumbersome 4L SVPWM algorithm. Meanwhile, any proven optimization scheme of 3L SVPWM can be directly applied to the proposed method to further improve performance. Simulation and experimental results for a 4L active NPC converter demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

A dynamic reconfiguration method for photovoltaic (PV) arrays based on an improved dung beetle algorithm (IDBO) to address the issue of PV array mismatch loss caused by partial shading conditions (PSCs) is proposed. To establish the output power-current (P-I) segmentation function for the total-cross-tied (TCT) PV array and the constraint function for the electrical switches, the IDBO algorithm was used to optimize both the P-I segmentation function and the electrical switch constraint function. IDBO is compared with algorithm-free reconfiguration and five other heuristic algorithms using two evaluation criteria: mismatch loss and power enhancement percentage, across six shading scenarios for 6×6 PV arrays. The irradiation distribution of PV arrays reconfigured by IDBO is also presented. The results show that IDBO effectively increases the output power of PV arrays and reduces mismatch loss. The output PV curves tend to exhibit a single peak, and the reconstruction results are superior to those obtained with the other methods.

Carrier-based pulse width modulation (CBPWM) and virtual space vector pulse width modulation (VSVPWM) are briefly reviewed for neutral-point-clamped three-level inverters (NPC TLI). A new modulation strategy referred to as N3S_CBPWM is then proposed to simultaneously consider multiple goals, such as the-neutral-point voltage (NPV) balance, switching loss, and common-mode voltage (CMV) reduction. For N3S_CBPWM in each switching cycle, the three-phase switching actions are zero, one, and two. In addition, the constraint conditions of the modulation waves are provided based on the reduction of the CMV. Subsequently, N3S_CBPWM, CBPWM, and VSVPWM are compared in terms of the NPV balance capability, switching loss, and CMV reduction. Finally, the feasibility and superiority of the proposed N3S_CBPWM are verified experimentally.

Efficient assessment of battery degradation is important to effectively utilize and maintain battery management systems. This study introduces an innovative residual convolutional network (RCN)-gated recurrent unit (GRU) model to accurately assess health of lithium-ion batteries on multiple time scales. The model employs a soft parameter-sharing mechanism to identify both short-and long-term degradation patterns. The continuously looped $Q(V), T(V), frac{mathrm{d}Q}{mathrm{d}V}$ , and $frac{mathrm{d}T}{mathrm{d}V}$ are extracted to form a four-channel image, from which the RCN can automatically extract the features and the GRU can capture the temporal features. By designing a soft parameter-sharing mechanism, the model can seamlessly predict the capacity and remaining useful life (RUL) on a dual time scale. The proposed method is validated on a large MIT-Stanford dataset comprising 124 cells, showing a high accuracy in terms of mean absolute errors of 0.004 77 for capacity and 83 for RUL. Furthermore, studying the partial voltage fragment reveals the promising performance of the proposed method across various voltage ranges. Specifically, in the partial voltage segment of 2.8-3.2 V, root mean square errors of 0.010 7 for capacity and 140 for RUL are achieved.

It is difficult for the traditional PI controller to meet high-performance control requirements under the demagnetization fault of a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM). To address this problem, this study proposes a novel sliding mode fault-tolerant control method for PMSM demagnetization faults. First, the mathematical model of PMSM under demagnetization fault state is established, and the reasons for poor fault tolerance of the conventional PI controller are analyzed. A new convergence law is used to design the speed loop sliding mode feedback controller, and its stability is demonstrated. Meanwhile, an adaptive forgetting factor recursive least squares (AFRLS) flux linkage observer is designed to keep the controller parameter values in line with the actual motor parameter values, to reduce the impact of demagnetization faults on motor control performance and achieve fault-tolerant control of demagnetization faults. Finally, simulation and experimental comparison with conventional PI control demonstrate that the proposed method is more robust and resistant to interference.
传统的 PI 控制器很难满足永磁同步电机（PMSM）退磁故障下的高性能控制要求。针对这一问题，本研究提出了一种新型的 PMSM 失磁故障滑模容错控制方法。首先，建立了 PMSM 在退磁故障状态下的数学模型，并分析了传统 PI 控制器容错性差的原因。利用新的收敛规律设计了速度环滑模反馈控制器，并证明了其稳定性。同时，设计了自适应遗忘因子递归最小二乘（AFRLS）磁通量联动观测器，使控制器参数值与电机实际参数值保持一致，降低了退磁故障对电机控制性能的影响，实现了退磁故障的容错控制。最后，通过与传统 PI 控制的仿真和实验对比，证明了所提出的方法具有更强的鲁棒性和抗干扰性。

To address this problem, this study proposes a novel sliding mode fault-tolerant control method for PMSM demagnetization faults. First, the mathematical model of PMSM under demagnetization fault state is established, and the reasons for poor fault tolerance of the conventional PI controller are analyzed. A new convergence law is used to design the speed loop sliding mode feedback controller, and its stability is demonstrated.
