Reliability of power converters is of crucial importance in switched reluctance motor drives used for safety-critical applications. Open-circuit faults in power converters will cause the motor to run in unbalanced states, and if left untreated, they will lead to damage to the motor and power modules, and even cause a catastrophic failure of the whole drive system. This study is focused on using a single current sensor to detect open-circuit faults accurately. An asymmetrical half-bridge converter is considered in this study and the faults of single-phase open and two-phase open are analysed. Three different bus positions are defined. On the basis of a fast fourier transform algorithm with Blackman window interpolation, the bus current spectrums before and after open-circuit faults are analysed in details. Their fault characteristics are extracted accurately by the normalisations of the phase fundamental frequency component and double phase fundamental frequency component, and the fault characteristics of the three bus detection schemes are also compared. The open-circuit faults can be located by finding the relationship between the bus current and rotor position. The effectiveness of the proposed diagnosis method is validated by the simulation results and experimental tests.

In this paper, a new adaptive method is proposed for online frequency estimation of a periodic disturbance by the output measurement based on the fast fourier transform algorithm. The performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated in the face of time varying frequency, time varying amplitude, non-sinusoidal periodic disturbance, and different plants. Also, the convergence rate of the method is compared by other estimation methods. Then, the online estimation is used in the repetitive controller structure for eliminating periodic disturbances with unknown frequencies. A new analysis is performed on RC and the stability conditions are determined in a theorem. These are illustrated in simulation results. The effectiveness of this method is shown on the application of phi-shaped PZT active suspension and it is compared by existing results.

A sparse array synthesis method based on improved wind-driven optimization algorithm (IWDO) and fastfouriertransform (FFT) for the purpose of sidelobe suppression was introduced. First, the uniform linear array was sparse by the FFT algorithm. Then the amplitude excitation weighting of array elements was optimized by IWDO algorithm based on probability factor chaotic map. During the optimization process, the minimum peak sidelobe level was used as the fitness function. By comparing with the simulation results of classic Chebyshev weighting method, the method proposed in this paper has better performance.

Shunt capacitors can effectively improve the system voltage level and increase the economy of grid operation. However, under the effect of harmonics, the capacitor bank is prone to harmonic resonance, which causes overcurrent and overvoltage and threatens the safe operation of the capacitor itself and the system. To avoid damage to capacitors due to harmonics, the harmonic current variation characteristics of shunt capacitors are investigated. Based on the established mathematical model of shunt capacitors, the characteristics of harmonic current amplification under different harmonic states are analyzed. Based on the amplification characteristics and sampling law, the harmonic current signal is acquired using the full-phase fast fourier transform algorithm. The full-phase fast fourier transform algorithm is improved by the phase difference algorithm to complete harmonic current detection. The experiments show that the dynamic response time is 1.6 cycles with minimum steady-state error before and after the load current jump. When the capacitor changes from unit power factor to 0.89 inductance, the harmonic current at point A changes from 17.59A to 21.34A and 11.65 to 22.38A, respectively. The deviation values are 3.75A and 10.73A, respectively. It shows that the algorithm has good tracking ability for load currents and can effectively detect the harmonic currents of shunt capacitors and obtain accurate variation characteristics. It can ensure that the harmonic content of the shunt capacitor in the distribution system is relatively reasonable, and realize the safe, stable and economic operation of the equipment.

Designers must carefully choose the best-suited fastfouriertransform (FFT) algorithm among various available techniques for the custom implementation that meets their design requirements, such as throughput, latency, and area. This article, to the best of authors' knowledge, is the first to present a compact and yet high-throughput parameterisable hardware architecture for implementing different FFT algorithms, including radix-2, radix-4, radix-8, mixed-radix, and split-radix algorithms. The designed architectures are fully parameterisable to support a variety of transform lengths and variable word-lengths. The FFT algorithms have been modelled and simulated in double-precision floating-point and fixed-point representations using authors' custom-developed library of numerical operations. The designed FFT architectures are modelled in Verilog hardware description language and their cycle-accurate and bit-true simulation results are verified against their fixed-point simulation models. The characteristics and implementation results of various FFT architectures on a Xilinx Virtex-7 FPGA are presented. Compared to recently published works, authors' memory-based FFT architectures utilise less reconfigurable resources while maintaining comparable or higher operating frequencies. The ASIC implementation results in a standard 45-nm CMOS technology are also presented for the designed memory-based FFT architectures. The execution times of FFTs on a workstation and a graphics processing unit are compared against authors' FPGA implementations.

This work presents an attempt in developing a non-electrical contact and non-invasive type, portable fault diagnosis unit for Induction Motor (IM), using OMAP digital signal processor and Micro-Electro-Mechanical-Systems (MEMS) accelerometer. The novelty of the work lies in the fact that several electrical and mechanical faults can be successfully detected in order to deal with challenges in the continuous condition monitoring of incipient faults in IM. The methodology includes capturing of vibration signal by accelerometer, conversion of vibration signals to voltage signal and taking the FFT of the signal in digital signal processor to carry out the spectral analysis. The experimental results have been validated by comparing with the results of Tektronix FFT analyzer and simulation. Further the developed system was examined on IMs at Milk processing dairy industry and Ply wood manufacturing industry to validate the system performance.

Harmonics and interharmonics adversely affect power grids. The fastfouriertransform (FFT) algorithm is one of the most commonly used methods for harmonic analysis. However, in practical applications, the accuracy of harmonic analysis can be seriously affected by fence effect and spectral leakage, which are undesired characteristics inherent to discrete fouriertransforms. Moreover, when non-synchronous sampling is carried out, the phase measurement is not accurate enough, and there is a large error in the identification of interharmonics. In order to improve the measurement precision, the method of all-phase spectrum analysis is used, since it has the characteristics of phase invariance and good spectral leakage suppression. A novel method based on improved Nuttall double-window all-phase FFT is proposed by improving the window function and the spectrum correction method for achieving higher precision. Through simulation and experimental verification, the proposed algorithm has proven to perform better than the traditional algorithms both for the detection of harmonics and interharmonics. In addition, the computation burden is not considerably increased when compared to such algorithms, which allows the on-line use of the proposed algorithm.

Accurate and long-term monitoring of soil moisture is of great significance for global water and carbon cycles. The soil moisture variation estimated from GPS-IR (GPS-InterferometricReflectometry) overcomes some drawbacks of traditional ways, and has become an important topic. Changes in the permittivity of the soil, which are associated with fluctuations in soil moisture, affect the effective frequency, phase, and amplitude of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) data recorded by the GPS receiver. This study used fastfouriertransform (FFT) algorithm with equal sinusoidal elevation angle-interval sampling and Least Square (LS) method mainly used in most previous studies to acquire GPS interferogram metrics, by comparing the retrievals with volumetric soil moisture retrieved by PBO H2O group. The values of frequency extracted by these two algorithms linearly and negatively correlate with surface soil moisture, showing correlations of -0.57 for LS and -0.45 for FFT. However, the correlation coefficient for phase extracted by FFT was 0.61, greater than that by LS of 0.31, both positively.
