Design of pitch angle controller for wind turbine based on pi neurofuzzy model

Abstract

<p>Aerodynamic torque of wind turbine is adjusted by controlling the pitch angle of the blades of the turbine when the wind speed is higher than rated wind speed. So that, in the recent research in this field, the pitch angle controller becomes dominated controller type for extracting the electrical power from the wind energy. Three types of the pitch angle control systems are designed to construct the speed controller: conventional PI controller, Neurofuzzy controller and modified PI-Neurofuzzy controller. The results are shown that the modified PI-Neurofuzzy controller is more efficient than the others because the rotation speed of generator is kept almost constant. It means that the generated output power has remained constant at maximum power limited even the wind speed rises up the rated wind speed.</p>

Simulation-Based Enhancement of SNR in Drone Communication through Uniform Linear Array Configurations

“…Modern wireless communication systems often implement large-scale antenna arrays to take advantage of the benefits offered by array gain [14]. To improve the SNR level and consequently wireless communication, we proposed the use of an array antenna instead of the single antenna into the drone side [15], [16]. The SNR is calculated and compared for both SISO and SIMO cases using Eq.…”

Experimental study of the VFD's speed stabilization processes under torque disturbances

“…The problems are complicated by the fact that the vector equations describing the VFD fundamentally do not take into account the variations in the load torques [29]- [31]. Based on vector equations and equivalent circuits, it is quite difficult to explain the experiments results and, moreover, to predict new results.…”

Empowering Elderly Individuals through the Intelligent Shopping Trolley

“…The implementation of smart shopping trolleys for elderly care holds several key advancements and benefits. Other recent reports in [6], [7] describe a smart trolley system for mega malls that uses a microcontroller. It allows customers to automatically scan products with a barcode scanner and see running totals on an LCD display, without needing to queue for checkout.…”
