This work investigates the feasibility of employing hybrid switched capacitor converters in wireless battery charging applications. A capacitively-isolated hybrid Dickson converter designed for use in low-power volume-constrained wireless power transfer applications is presented. The converter analysis, operation and design are detailed. Finally, a hardware prototype is presented and experimental results validate wireless power transfer, across varying load and gap distances.
3D medical image segmentation has progressed considerably due to Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and Vision Transformers (ViTs), yet these methods struggle to balance long-range dependency acquisition with comput...

Capacitive isolation is a potential alternative to magnetics-based isolation in emerging applications, such as in partial power processing converter topologies, and in applications where weight and component volume are limiting factors. This work presents a capacitively-isolated Cockcroft-Walton converter capable of isolation through the flying capacitors. Generalized equations for mid-range flying capacitor voltages and switch voltages for converters of even level count are detailed. Experimental results validate the topology and analysis with a hardware prototype demonstrating 120 V input, 93.87% efficiency, and up to 60 V of isolation.

A micro-grid (MG) is regarded as a localized small-scale power supply system designed for providing electrical power for a remote community, which may be connected to the grid. The paper considers six participants' sites in a remote community. The peak energy consumption patterns for these participants must be different to ensure coalition for mutual benefits and this would facilitate efficient utilization of energy resources. This community concerned may include rural communities having participants such as schools, housing estates, industrial sites, etc. The propose approach would ensure that many participants and their needs are captured and optimized profit of the participants would ensure mutual benefits. In islanded MG, most of the cost/profit distributions in energy trading problems are done based on the self-interest of the participants. Some consider a fair (acceptable or reasonable) cost/profit distribution using the cooperative game theory (CGT) based on the Nash bargaining solution (NBS). However, this method leads to a high degree of dissatisfaction. To improve the fairness and mutual benefits for all MG participants, a new flexible approach is developed. Specifically, CGT which uses a generalized NBS (GNBS) has been proposed, which relaxes certain axiom of the NBS to ensure that fairness of game theory is achieved. The approach allows the profit of the MG participants to be shared using a mechanism based on the negotiation power (i.e. weighted fairness) so that the MG would attain an improved economic outcome. Empirical evaluation of the approach indicates that overall profits using CGT is higher when compared with an independent approach. Moreover, different in negotiation power is achieved in which higher profit is allocated to any participant based on participant's mutual agreement in achieving fair profit distribution. A robust optimization algorithm called Teaching-Learning-Based-Optimization (TLBO) is developed to obtain optimal results. The heur
