Power quality has become a pressing issue that demands solutions as power electronic equipment has been increasingly used in industrial sectors. One critical problem is how to mitigate harmful harmonics generated by the power electronic equipment. This study investigates harmonic distortion issues in a wastewater treatment plant to verify compliance with IEEE standard 519 using simulation software ETAP and realistic data from the plant. Harmonic quantification shows that the plant harmonic situation violates IEEE Standard 519 where harmonic levels exceed its voltage and current limits. Different methods were used to mitigate the harmonic situation where the core is using passive harmonic filters. It is found that the biggest contributor to the harmonic distortion is the system variable frequency drives. Using high-pulse variable frequency drives, such as 18-pulse, is proven to be beneficial for harmonic reduction. Further, installing passive harmonic filters in appropriate locations helps lower voltage and current harmonics to meet IEEE Std. 519 limits. However, adding a passive harmonic filter higher up the power distribution or adding passive filters to the feeder buses is not effective in lowering the Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) of the system. This would have the drawback of increasing the rating of the system bus voltages. Other findings include a lack of medium voltage passive filters on the market and high costs. The study contributes some insight understanding, experience, and methods for engineers when developing solutions for controlling harmonics in similar plants or industrial applications.

In this paper, an analysis and design of a new active rectifier used for wireless power transfer applications using 90 nm CMOS technology are presented. The proposed architecture of the active rectifier has mainly been chosen to improve the VCE and the PCE and also to eliminate the need for large on-chip capacitors. The proposed circuits eliminate the drop needed for conduction by replacing diode-connected nMOS devices with others controlled by an active circuit. The new architecture of the active rectifier has been designed, simulated, and laid out by Cadence Virtuoso using TSMC 90nm technology. The input range is 0–5 V, and the output voltage is 2.14 V, with the VCE and the PCE values of 82.9% and 86.2%, respectively. The layout utilizes a compact space of 0.0597 mm2 within the TSMC CMOS 90 nm technology.

This work introduces the application of piezoelectric sensors on the road which intersects to form a T juncture, the application of the sensor aids in regulating the control of traffic density on each side of the road. Traffic congestion as of today is caused by the improper management of time and eventually leads to traffic delays. This was undoubtedly observed during early hours when a lot of civilians head out to their workstations and during closing hours in the evenings. The increasing population and economic activities in urban areas contribute to higher vehicle ownership and usage, leading to more traffic on the roads. It is achieved from the general desire of people to achieve goals, which ultimately leads to daily overcrowding of the present transportation infrastructure. But despite attempts at solutions, everyone despises traffic congestion, and it only gets unfavorable. The objective of this project is to create a dynamic road signal that is based on density. The synchronization signals automatically change to detect intersection traffic density. The components required to build this project include the microcontroller (Arduino uno), LEDs (light emitting diodes), piezoelectric sensors, jumper wires, a 9 V battery, a switch, and an operational amplifier. The result of the work focuses on the detection of density from a sensor which will be constructed underground to operate as a counter for every vehicle that passes by as it will be powered by a battery of approximately 9 V. The sensor which is known as the piezoelectric sensor abides by the rule of piezoelectric effect, which states that the stress produced from a non-static object, or the mechanical energy produced from a moving object will produce an electric charge in response to the mechanical energy generated. The electric charge produced from the piezoelectric sensor will be transmitted to the microcontroller (Arduino Uno). Through the input stage of the signal received, the program in the microcontroller will command the light-emitting diode (LEDs) to function accordingly to the state of density detected from each side of the road. Thereby regulating the flow of traffic movement efficiently and accurately. Overall, the application of the piezoelectric sensor on the road can accurately detect the presence of a vehicle passing.
这项工作介绍了压电传感器在道路上的应用,道路相交形成一个 T 字路口,传感器的应用有助于调节控制道路两侧的交通密度。目前的交通拥堵是由于时间管理不当造成的,最终导致交通延误。毋庸置疑,在很多人出门上班的清晨时段和晚上下班时段都会出现这种情况。城市地区人口和经济活动的增加导致车辆拥有量和使用量的增加,从而导致道路上的交通流量增加。这源于人们实现目标的普遍愿望,最终导致目前的交通基础设施每天都人满为患。然而,尽管尝试了各种解决方案,但每个人都对交通拥堵嗤之以鼻,交通拥堵只会变得越来越糟糕。本项目的目标是创建一种基于密度的动态道路信号。同步信号灯会根据路口交通密度自动变化。制作这个项目所需的组件包括微控制器(Arduino uno)、LED(发光二极管)、压电传感器、跳线、9 V 电池、开关和运算放大器。工作成果的重点是通过传感器检测密度,该传感器将安装在地下,作为每辆经过车辆的计数器,由大约 9 V 的电池供电。该传感器被称为压电传感器,遵循压电效应规则,即非静态物体产生的应力或运动物体产生的机械能将产生电荷,以响应所产生的机械能。压电传感器产生的电荷将被传输到微控制器(Arduino Uno)。通过接收到的信号的输入阶段,微控制器中的程序将根据从道路两侧检测到的密度状态,命令发光二极管(LED)发挥相应的作用。从而有效、准确地调节交通流量。总之,在道路上应用压电传感器可以准确地检测到是否有车辆通过。

This paper introduces two low-power design techniques for a successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter (ADC) used in transmitting physiological signals. The first technique is called dual split switching, involving the use of a one-sided charge-scaling digital-to-analog converter (DAC) to minimize switching energy by reducing leakage in a dual transmission gate. The second technique, known as the set and reset phase, determines the amplification and comparison phases of the comparator. This approach reduces the delay time of the comparator through the use of a folded cascode pre-amplifier and a regenerative latch. The design includes a Serial-in-Parallel-Out (SIPO) N-bit register and SAR, implemented using negative edge-triggered D flip-flops (DFFs). To optimize power consumption, the supply voltage of the SAR ADC is set to 500 mV. The concept of a variable threshold is utilized throughout the design to enable operation with this lower supply voltage. The SAR ADC is designed to support a sampling rate of up to 1 Msps (mega-samples per second). The circuit is implemented using standard UMC180nm technology. According to the test results, the power consumption of the SAR ADC is only 29.06 uW, and the achieved sampling rate is 5 Ksps (kilo-samples per second). The maximum differential non-linearity (DNL) is measured to be +0.9/−0.82 least significant bits (LSBs).

This paper addresses the evaluation of a two-dimensional cylindrical capacitor featuring homogeneous Cartesian anisotropic dielectric material. The development of a bounding formula forms the crux of the investigation and is grounded in the principles of the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality, a mathematical concept widely acknowledged for establishing relationships between different mathematical entities. In the course of this study, a dual-sided bound is systematically derived for the circular cylindrical two-dimensional capacitor through the application of well-established inequality relations. These bounds play a pivotal role in setting limits on the capacitance of the system, providing valuable insights into its electrical behavior.

In this paper, the fault analysis is performed for the identification in the Modified Hybrid Digital Pulse Width Modulation by making use of the Triple Modular Redundancy method. The developed algorithm is real time implemented using the Xilinx Artix 7 FPGA device. The Modified Hybrid Digital Pulse Width Modulation is designed for the purpose of minimizing the Turn-ON and Turn-OFF delays in the triggering event of the generated Digital Pulse Width Modulation. Though additional compensatory circuits are added for the delay reduction, the area utilization is still low when implemented in FPGA device. Also, the Triple Modular Redundancy consists of three times of MHDPWM signal generation to check for the fault occurrence. For the sake of validating the fault identification, the majority voter circuit is used that could find the error at the earliest. The proposed method is checked for errors by inducing within the VHDL code and trailed with multiple duty cycle values. The proposed fault identification method is validated for VLSI parameters such as area, delay and power.

In research and development, the most emerging field in digital signal processing and image processing is rounded-based approximated signed and unsigned multipliers. In the present research, we propose some cutting-edge, Preformation, and logic simplification technology connected to processing the Discrete cosine transform (DCT) and Discrete wavelet transform (DWT) images for sharpening. This technology will yield a truncated shifter incorporated with logical XOR-MUX Full adder techniques. A reliable and cost-effective approximate signed and unsigned multiplier was created for the rounding method. While this more advanced technology includes many approximate multipliers, it sacrifices the ability to find the closest integer of a rounded value when combining signed and unsigned capabilities, resulting in higher absolute errors than other approximate multipliers based on rounding. This proposed work will introduce a novel method of Truncated Shifter Rounding-based Approximate Multiplier integrated with a High-Level Synchronous XOR-MUX Full Adder design to minimize the number of logic gates and power consumption in the multiplier architecture. The Truncated RoBA (Rounding-based Approximate Multiplier) with XOR MUX Full Adder will reduce the logic size in the shifter and the arithmetic circuit. The work will modify this rounding-based approximate multiplier to minimize area, delay, and power consumption. This proposed architecture will be integrated with two fundamental changes: firstly, its Barrel shifter method will be replaced with a truncated shifter multiplier with XOR MUX Full Adder, and secondly, the parallel prefix Brent Kung adder will be replaced with a carrying-save adder with XOR MUX Full Adder. Finally, this architecture was designed using Verilog-HDL and synthesized using the Xilinx Vertex-5 FPGA family, targeting the device Xc7Vx485tFFg1157-1. It resulted in a reduction of area LUT (34%), power (1%), delay (32%), and error analysis (75%) when compared to the existing RoBA.

In the present research, we propose some cutting-edge, Preformation, and logic simplification technology connected to processing the Discrete cosine transform (DCT) and Discrete wavelet transform (DWT) images for sharpening. This technology will yield a truncated shifter incorporated with logical XOR-MUX Full adder techniques. A reliable and cost-effective approximate signed and unsigned multiplier was created for the rounding method. While this more advanced technology includes many approximate multipliers, it sacrifices the ability to find the closest integer of a rounded value when combining signed and unsigned capabilities, resulting in higher absolute errors than other approximate multipliers based on rounding.
