This paper presents a parallel implementation approach of selective harmonic compensator for active power filters. This approach uses field programmable gate array (FPGAs) in order to reduce the compensator computational time. To compensate for even a small number of harmonics digital filters require multiple calculation instructions involving multiplications and additions. Thus, to improve the performance of the computer system it is proposed the digital compensator implementation using parallel structures in FPGA devices. Experimental results are presented to compare the speedup of the proposed parallel approach with the DSP sequential execution time conventionally used in active power filters applications.

This paper presents a systematic methodology to generate high step-up voltage gain converters based on the combination of two standard DC/DC converters. The converters are combined so that their input sections are integrated reducing the converter component count. Their output sections are associated to derive three basic configurations, the series, the parallel and the cascade outputs. The paper presents as an example, the integration of the boost and flyback converters for which the voltage gain and efficiency in steady state are analyzed. Comparative experimental results among the three integrated boost-flyback laboratory prototypes are carried out. It shows that the Series-IBF and the Cascade-IBF present better and similar performance when compared to the Parallel-IBF converter.

This paper presents a FPGA based approach for a modular architecture of Fuzzy Neural Networks (FNN) to embed with easily different topologies set up. The project is based on a Takagi - Hayashi (T-H) method for the construction and tuning of fuzzy rules, this is commonly referred as neural network driven fuzzy reasoning. The proposed architecture approach consists of two main configurable modules: a Multilayer Perceptron - MLP with sigmoidal activation function that composes the first module to determine a Fuzzy membership function; the second employs an MLP with pure linear activation function to define the consequents. The DSPBuilder ® software along the Simulink ® is used to connect, set and synthesize the Fuzzy Neural Network desired. Other hardware components employed in the architecture proposed cooperate to the system modularity. The system was tested and validated through a control problem and an interpolation problem. Several papers proposed different hardware architecture to implement hybrid systems by using Fuzzy logic and Neural Network. However, there is no approach with this specific neural network driven fuzzy reasoning by T-H method and the aim to be embedded. The Self-Organizing Map (SOM) and Levenberg-Marquardt backpropagation were used to train the FNN proposed off-line.

This work proposes the application of a battery or plug-in electric vehicle powertrain on the mitigation of possible residential electricity network power quality problems by means of the integration of a shunt active power filter into its power electronics circuitry. The integration of additional functions to an electric vehicle is a very desirable feature, since it can result on cost reduction (in comparison to the separately implementation of the integrated functions). Simulation results provide evidence of the possible employment of power electronics converters, inherent to the vehicle propulsion system, in order to reduce harmonic content and improve power factor in single-phased electric networks.

This paper proposes the use of an explicit dynamic predictive control which is a PWA (PieceWise Affine) function of the dynamic model states of a robotic wheelchair. The optimization algorithmic is based on Multi-parametrical programming, allowing all calculations of this controller be performed off-line, before starting the system operation, resulting in a reduction of online computational time. Some simulation and experimental results illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

The present work describes the simulation to be used in the control of a mechanical arm using a Visual Evoked Potential to drive a Brain Computer Interface system. The signal processing and classifying was done using the Multiple Coherence K 2 N . The proposed classifier was able to detect the difference between four different frequencies presented at the same time. The Multiple Coherence classifier had a hit rate of 95%.

This paper presents a complete AC small-signal general model for the interleaved buck converter (IBC) operating in continuous conduction mode. Average state-space technique is used and the most important parasitic elements are included. A ready-to-use generalized model for n-cells structure is developed by obtaining its DC model and AC small-signal model for a certain operation point. Besides, it is presented an n-cells inductor value analysis against duty-cycle and a second-order model is derived from that, which can replace the complete model with accuracy, simplifying the dynamics analysis. Models have been successfully verified experimentally, and compared via simulation in Matlab/Simulink.

This paper presents a discussion about a methodology to obtain the main parameters of solar panels and power converters in photovoltaic systems. This study is essential to obtain the maximum power transfer from the PV source to the mains grid or a load. It is also presented a formal mathematical model based on the experimental data acquisition of the key parameters of a photovoltaic cell which are: shunt and series resistances, photo generated current, the ideality factor and the diode reverse saturation current.
