The present paper concentrates on the improvement of power quality using a single-phase active power filter (APF) connected to the photovoltaic (PV) array operating in the presence of a non-linear load. A novel controller design, based on the energy stored in the half-bridge shunt APF is proposed to ensure two main objectives at the same time: (i) the transfer of active power to the electrical network by extracting the maximum of active power from the PV panels and regulating the PV voltage to a reference value provided by the MPPT;(ii) the improvement of power factor correction (PFC) by compensating for the harmonic current and reactive power produced by the non-linear load using the backstepping technique and Lyapunov tools. The nonlinear controller is developed in two loops. An inner loop is constituted of a PFC regulator based on the energy stored in the APF to minimize the total harmonic distortion (THD). An outer loop uses a linear PI regulator to regulate PV array voltage. The controller also comprised an observer to estimate the voltage network, which is not accessible to measurements. The performance of the proposed controller is validated by simulation using MATLAB/Simulink Copyright (c) 2024 The Authors.

This paper investigates the stable control problem of unmanned aerial manipulator (UAM) in the presence of lumped disturbance, including modelling uncertainties and external inferences. These disturbances typically involve limited prior knowledge and change rapidly, presenting considerable challenges to real-time control accuracy. To address this issue, a Takagi-Sugeno-Kang estimator (TSKE) with K-closest fuzzy rules interpolation (K-FRI) is proposed to derive an approximation for the uncertain disturbances. The incorporation of K-FRI enhances the accuracy and convergence rate of the estimation under the conditions of a sparse fuzzy rule base with an incomplete fuzzy quantity space. Subsequently, a backstepping controller with arbitrary convergence time is introduced to guarantee the rapid and precise control of the UAM. The stability of both the TSKE and the controller with arbitrary convergence time is analysed through Lyapunov theory. The feasibility and performance of the proposed control strategy are validated via comparative experimental simulations, demonstrating its ability for robust estimation capability with stable controlperformance, at any convergence time of the UAM working under lumped disturbance.

Nano-electro-mechanical designs (NEMD), wireless technology, additionally, digital electronics can make it possible to create small, inexpensive, and low-powered detection units that can communicate over short and multi-hop distances. The main issue for Cellular Detector systems (CDS) is to maximize battery power abstraction to increase network lifespan while reducing power consumption from regular input signals and operational expenses between access points and detector networks. Packet expenses, retransmissions, and control signal overhead fees add energy challenges. We suggest using random sampling and correct routing to conserve power and transport data quickly in the network significantly reducing the overhead of the control signal. Using neural network-based backpropagation, energy-efficient and nearby modules are predicted along with the information-promoting path to the endpoint for increasing the efficiency of packet transmission. This study illustrates the ways to optimize battery energy consumption without sacrificing data connection speed at low cost using simulations. This strategy improves detection system efficiency, network longevity, performance, and energy consumption to 76%, 68%, 79%, 82% respectively.

This paper proposes a novel control strategy for a single -stage photovoltaic (PV) system consisting of two PV panels connected to the grid via a three -level neutral point clamped converter topology with an LCL filter. This control method is based on a developed 5th order model containing sum and difference terms of the voltages of the two input capacitors. This allows decoupling the issues of maximum power point tracking and power factor correction from the issue of balancing the power exchange generated by the panels, which facilitates control design and improves system performances. The control problem under consideration is dealt with using a non-linear controller composed of three loops: (i) an inner loop is developed, based on backstepping and Lyapunov approaches, to correct the power factor by forcing the grid current to be sinusoidal and in phase with the grid voltage;(ii) an outer loop is designed, using a filtered proportional -integral controller, to regulate the DC bus voltage to a climate -dependent reference;(iii) a balancing loop is designed, using a proportional -integral controller, to cope with the neutral point voltage balancing problem. The proposed controller also includes a state observer that provides on-line estimation of the network state variables that are not accessible to measurements. Another important aspect of this work is the development of a formal, complete and rigorous analysis in order to describe the performance and analyse the stability of the closed -loop system using various analytical tools, including averaging theory, Routh criteria and indirect Lyapunov stability. A simulation in MATLAB/SIMULINK environment shows, on the one hand, the efficiency and robustness of the proposed nonlinear controller against changing climatic conditions and, on the other hand, the superiority of this control strategy compared to the one based on a PI linear inner loop controller for the studied system with an L - filter and an LCL filter.

This work considers the problem of time-varying formation tracking control of second-order multi-agent systems under disturbances. A distributed robust time-varying formation control law is proposed including distributed finite-time estimators of the leader's states and sliding mode time-varying formation controllers. Firstly, each agent can quickly estimate the leader's states through the communication network in the distributed finite-time estimators based on the sliding mode estimation. Secondly, utilizing the estimates of the leader's states, a sliding mode time-varying formation controller is designed using the prescribed time modification function. Unlike traditional distributed control law relying on the exchanges of the agents' states, the proposed control design achieves great robustness and stability of the overall system by exchanging the estimates of the leader's states. According to Lyapunov stability analysis, we prove that the proposed approach enables the sliding variables to achieve fast finite-time convergence. Furthermore, simulation examples are provided to illustrate the performance.

The transition from conventional networks to Software Defined networks (SDNs) has revolutionized network management and control, but it also creates a huge security risk, underscoring the significance of effective intrusion detection systems (IDS). Researchers have used deep learning for IDS due to its ability to capture complex patterns in data. Deep Learning techniques rely on ample balanced labeled data for effective intrusion detection, but acquiring such balanced data in real network scenarios is a formidable challenge, often resulting in suboptimal performance for existing methods when dealing with imbalanced datasets. This paper introduces a hierarchical approach that is capable of effectively detecting well-known network attacks in an SDN environment, even with minimal training data. Our model, leveraging a dataset collected from a real-world software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN) environment, showcases remarkable adaptability by maintaining strong performance even with highly imbalanced data, i.e., attack samples with as few as 8 or 16 instances to others with hundreds, thousands, or even millions of instances. It consistently achieves an overall average F1 score above 92%, with minority class average F1 score reaching more than 84%, marking a substantial 22.50% performance improvement compared to selected baselines in our evaluation.
