The scheduling of the operation of the electricity system in Brazil is based on multi-criteria optimization that takes into account the forecast of the level of the dams of the hydroelectric plants, this variation is evaluated by the soil moisture active passive model. Considering the advances in using deep learning to forecast time series variations, this paper proposes a hybrid method for forecasting dam level variations. In particular, the temporal fusion transformer (TFT) is used for prediction with the Hodrick–Prescott filter for denoising. To enhance the model's performance, its hyperparameters are optimized by the Optuna framework based on the tree-structured Parzen estimator. For benchmarking, the multilayer perceptron, long short-term memory, recurrent neural network (RNN), Dilated RNN, temporal convolutional neural, neural hierarchical interpolation for time series forecasting, deep non-parametric time series forecaster, and the standard TFT are considered. The results show that the proposed model can make predictions with high performance compared to other methods, being 29.12% better than the second-best model, and 59.22% better than the original TFT model for very short-term forecasting, making it a promising alternative to be used as additional information for planning the operation of the electrical power system.

In modern age wireless communication networks, higher data rates and ultra-improved quality of service is necessary for massive connectivity in Internet of things (IoT) networks. In addition to that the reliability and energy conservation is also required to improve the overall efficiency of the system. The battery lifetime of the communication system can be enhanced by applying simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) technology because it increases the reliability by harvesting the energy from the received signals. The communication range of the IoT sensors can be enhanced by integrating the relay nodes in the system. In this paper, we have considered a two-way relaying system where the relaying node is comprised of large number of antennas and it divides the incoming signals into information decoding (ID) and energy harvesting (EHS) streams. The high rates in this communication system are supported by employing three precoding schemes, that is, maximum ratio transmission (MRT), zero-forcing (ZF) and regularised zero-forcing (RZF). We have considered large-scale fading for massive MIMO channels and SWIPT technique is used for driving the bandwidth efficiency expressions. Furthermore, we have evaluated the analytical through MATLAB simulations.

Nonsimultaneous measurements of voltage and current harmonics associated with the distribution and utility-interactive photovoltaic systems at the Southwest Residential Experiment Station are summarized in this paper. A qualitative analysis of the data is presented. The harmonic impacts of the prototypes-on the distribution system appear to be minimal. Needs in the area of measurement and analysis of harmonic propagation in general systems are identified.
In optoelectronics, achieving electrical reconfigurability is crucial as it enables the encoding, decoding, manipulating, and processing of information carried by light. In recent years, two-dimensional van der Waals ...
