This work presents a high-performance AC-DC quasi single-stage current-fed resonant converter based electric vehicles (EVs) charger. A non-linear control technique is applied which has two main objectives i.e; Power factor correction (PFC) and regulation of DC output voltage. For this purpose, super twisting sliding mode control (ST-SMC) is suggested in this study for 400V batteries of EVs. To reduce switching losses and improve efficiency, the secondary side switch shows turn OFF with zero voltage switching (ZVS) while the primary ones exhibit ZVS at turn ON instant. Hardware-in-loop (HIL) experimental validation based on the Delfino F28369D dual-core microcontroller is used to verify the performance of the controller and converter simulated on PSIM and MATLAB/Simulink.
The surging adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) poses significant challenges for distribution networks (DNs) due to EV charging impact. This paper presents a multi-objective optimization (MOO) model that coordinates E...

Cellular traffic prediction is a crucial activity for optimizing networks in fifth-generation (5G) networks and beyond, as accurate forecasting is essential for intelligent network design, resource allocation and anomaly mitigation. Although machine learning (ML) is a promising approach to effectively predict network traffic, the centralization of massive data in a single data center raises issues regarding confidentiality, privacy and data transfer demands. To address these challenges, federated learning (FL) emerges as an appealing ML training framework which offers high accurate predictions through parallel distributed computations. However, the environmental impact of these methods is often overlooked, which calls into question their sustainability. In this paper, we address the trade-off between accuracy and energy consumption in FL by proposing a novel sustainability indicator that allows assessing the feasibility of ML models. Then, we comprehensively evaluate state-of-the-art deep learning (DL) architectures in a federated scenario using real-world measurements from base station (BS) sites in the area of Barcelona, Spain. Our findings indicate that larger ML models achieve marginally improved performance but have a significant environmental impact in terms of carbon footprint, which make them impractical for real-world applications.
We consider the convex-concave saddle point problem minx maxy Φ(x, y), where the decision variables x and/or y are subject to certain multi-block structure and affine coupling constraints, and Φ(x, y) possesses cert...

Ground faults in converter-based grids can be difficult to detect because, unlike in grids with synchronous machines, they often do not result in large currents. One recent strategy is for each converter to inject a p...

Many organizations are looking for how to automate repetitive tasks to reduce manual work and free up resources for innovation. Machine Learning, especially Deep Learning, increases the chance of achieving this goal while working with technical documentation. Highly costly engineering hours can be saved, for example, by empowering the manual check with AI, which helps to reduce the total time for technical documents review. This paper proposes a way to substantially reduce the hours spent by process engineers reviewing P&IDs (Piping & Instrumentation Diagrams). The developed solution is based on a deep learning model for analyzing complex real-life engineering diagrams to find design errors - patterns that are combinations of high-level objects. Through the research on an extensive collection of P&ID files provided by McDermott, we prove that our model recognizes patterns representing engineering mistakes with high accuracy. We also describe our experience dealing with class-imbalance problems, labelling, and model architecture selection. The developed model is domain agnostic and can be re-trained on various schematic diagrams within engineering fields and, as well, could be used as an idea for other researchers to see whether similar solutions could be built for different industries.
Experimentally feasible methods to determine the Berry phase, a fundamental quantity characterizing a quantum material, are often needed in applications. We develop an approach to detecting the Berry phase by using a ...

The almost-supermartingale convergence theorem of Robbins and Siegmund (1971) is a fundamental tool for establishing the convergence of various stochastic iterative algorithms including system identification, adaptive control, and reinforcement learning. The theorem is stated for non-negative scalar valued stochastic processes. In this paper, we generalize the theorem to non-negative vector valued stochastic processes and provide two set of sufficient conditions for such processes to converge almost surely. We present several applications of vector almost-supermartingale convergence theorem, including convergence of autoregressive supermartingales, delayed supermartingales, and stochastic approximation with delayed updates.

The development of high-resolution, large-baseline optical interferometers would revolutionize astronomical imaging. However, classical techniques are hindered by physical limitations including loss, noise, and the fact that the received light is generally quantum in nature. We show how to overcome these issues using quantum communication techniques. We present a general framework for using quantum error correction codes for protecting and imaging starlight received at distant telescope sites. In our scheme, the quantum state of light is coherently captured into a nonradiative atomic state via stimulated Raman adiabatic passage, which is then imprinted into a quantum error correction code. The code protects the signal during subsequent potentially noisy operations necessary to extract the image parameters. We show that even a small quantum error correction code can offer significant protection against noise. For large codes, we find noise thresholds below which the information can be preserved. Our scheme represents an application for near-term quantum devices that can increase imaging resolution beyond what is feasible using classical techniques.
We develop a new class of model-free deep reinforcement learning algorithms for data-driven, learning-based control. Our Generalized Policy Improvement algorithms combine the policy improvement guarantees of on-policy...
