(2021), A Review on High PV Penetration on Smart Grid: Challenges and Its Mitigation Using FPPT, 1st International Conference on Power Electronics and Energy (ICPEE), Bhubaneswar, India, pp. 1–6, doi: 10.1109/ICPEE50452.2021.9358474.

With the increasing penetration level, the intermittent nature of solar energy poses new challenges for the conventional grid. The major challenges are overvoltage, voltage fluctuations, frequency fluctuations, reverse power flow etc. These challenges suggest updating the conventional grid code. The updated grid code can incorporate FPPT instead of MPPT to meet the challenges arising due to large PV penetration. The main plot of the paper is on the review of techniques to mitigate such challenges during higher PV penetration on Smart Grid.

Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) is required by the Photovoltaic (PV) systems for maximum harvesting of solar energy. Solar energy is intermittent. There is a peak power generation period when a large amount of energy is generated and a large amount of energy is feed-in the grid. Thus, the grid system must be retrofitted to accommodate the large power. However, upgrading the existing power system is not economically viable. An economical solution to this issue is by implementing Flexible Power Point Tracking (FPPT).

3. Tesfay, M. W., Roy, T., Swain, S. K. and Nanda, L. (2021), A Novel Step-up 7L Switched-Capacitor Multilevel Inverter and Its Extended Structure, 2021 1st International Conference on Power Electronics and Energy (ICPEE), pp. 1–6, doi: 10.1109/ICPEE50452.2021.9358651.

In this paper, a novel 7 level switched capacitor based multilevel inverter structure is proposed first. After that, the extended version of the proposed structure has been developed which is based on a single dc source. A comprehensive comparison study with respect to recently published single source based SCMLI structures shows that the proposed structure requires a reduced number of components for producing the same number of output voltage levels. Extensive simulation studies on 7 level SCMLI structure considering different load conditions show the effectiveness of the structure

Abstract: The increase in amount of data present in a wireless network is the problem faced during signal transmission in internet of things (IoT) systems and 5G networks. The requirement of such extensive connectivity in the network leads to a large amount of data to be produced. Therefore, signal compression is required before application. One such application is to identify the sparse physical system after compressing the input signal by a wavelet transform. The proportionate normalized least mean square (PNLMS) algorithm and its variants are simulated for different types of input signals. The input signals are a Gaussian random signal, band-limited signal; a speech signal, a color signal, and a uniform random signal are analyzed.

ABSTRACT: One of the recent developments in the field of technology is augmented reality (AR). Eighty percent of youth currently own smart phones but very fewer proportions of young adults use smart phones for learning purposes. AR technologies will make classrooms more entertaining and more immersive to knowledge. The concept is to introduce AR as a mobile application to enable educators, and learners to understand the critical concept of various embedded hardware, its main features, and programming. The application generates a virtual label and parts of the product and displays such demonstrations in a step-by-step manner with interactive three-dimensional animations to connect different peripherals with other dedicated devices.

As the complexity of the MIMO system increases due to the spatial multiplexing, so to reduce the complexity of the system and to achieve fast convergence of the system a momentum based fractional order LMS with sparse penalty term named as sparse momentum fractional LMS (SmFLMS) is used in this paper with a Jake’s outdoor channel model

ABSTRACT: These days with the growth of wireless communication strategies focus on enhanced data rates, system capacity and service quality have also gained a lot of interest. To encounter these issues, proper channel modeling and precise assessment of state information of the channel are imperative for the design of the communication system. Hence, this paper presents an efficient channel estimator for a MIMO-OFDM system based on sparse modeling for estimation of wireless channel parameters. It uses a sigmoid-based least-mean mixed norm approach to estimate Jake’s outdoor channel model. The performance of the system is evaluated by the Mean Square Error (MSE) and Bit Error Rate (BER) level.

Patnaik, A., Nanda, S., (2021) Reweighted Zero-Attracting Modified Variable Step-Size Continuous Mixed p-Norm Algorithm for Identification of Sparse System Against Impulsive Noise, International Conference on Communication, Circuits, and Systems (IC3S 2020), Lecture Notes in Electrical Engineering, Springer Singapore, pp 509.

ABSTRACT. The performance of traditional adaptive filtering algorithms for sparse system identification might not be good compared to the identification of non-sparse systems. The modified variable step-size continuous mixed p-norm (MVSS-CMPN) algorithm for identifying non-sparse systems was developed in the existence of impulsive noise. In this paper, a reweighted zero attracting MVSS-CMPN algorithm is developed by inducing a sparse penalty function into the MVSS-CMPN algorithm to exploit the sparsity of the system. From the simulations, it is found that the proposed algorithm provides superior performance to other algorithms for sparse system identification under the effect of impulsive noise.

ABSTRACT: In this paper, the power estimation at the combined cycle power plant has been done taking into consideration the various factors affecting the process with the help of multi- layer perceptron networks. The proposed algorithm helps to improve the forecasting with Multi- Layer Perceptron Networks (MLPN) essentially to predict power generation output using the minimum number of input variables. The results, which can be considered highly satisfactory, demonstrate the MLPN’s prediction accuracy with a normalized root mean square error for all conditions of less than 5% and with practically no deviation. We demonstrate how beneficial matching of two already proven techniques can bring about comprehensive results in energy generation prediction.

ABSTRACT: Body area networks are a novel way of tracking vital health parameters of elderly and patients with chronic health conditions. The signals collected by sensors are transmitted to remote servers for real-time monitoring. Transceivers have an important role in the transmission and reception of critical health parameters in body area networks (BANs). Signal propagation modelling helps to design highly power efficient transceivers. Thus, the paper proposes a channel model derived from at least 500 real-time received power measurements in the vicinity of the inner surface of human arm.
