Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
For a variable-speed wind turbine (VSWT), the primary objective of control is to maximize power generation while maintaining the desired rotor speed and avoiding equipment overloads. To fulfill the control objectives, the classical model-based control (MBC) has been widely used, which refers to two controllers: torque controller (TC) and pitch controller (PC). In this work, the drawbacks of MBC for VSWTs are studied extensively. It reveals that there are transition issues between the TC and PC, and over-speed problems under large turbulent wind when only MBC is taken. To improve the control performance of the VSWT, an integrated control solution …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
The utilization of a DC-link transmission corridor of embedded VSC HVDC for a DC power injection from renewable energy sources to increase the power flow capability and AC network stability support is a promising technology. However, DC faults on the DC transmission line are likely to threaten the system's operation and stability, especially when the DC power injection exceeds certain limits. A DC single line-to-earth fault is the most likely fault scenario and its effect on the VSC HVDC operation will depend on the earth-loop impedance. Adding an injection point on the DC-link will reduce the earth-loop impedance, hence imposing …

Supercapacitor Energy Storage Based-Upqc To Enhance Ride-Through Capability Of Wind Turbine Generators, Gangatharan Sivasankar, Velu Suresh Kumar
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
The recent advancement in electric energy storage technologies provides an opportunity of using energy storage systems to address the issues of grid-integrated wind energy conversion systems. This paper proposes a novel configuration of a unified power quality conditioner (UPQC) with a supercapacitor-based short-term energy storage system for managing wind power intermittency during grid faults. The STATCOM-like compensation device can compensate only current related issues. The dynamic voltage restorer can compensate voltage-related issues but it can contribute only 50{\%} voltage due to converter rating limitations. Moreover, real power handling capabilities of these devices are very poor. This new UPQC scheme can …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
After the implementation of deregulation in a power system, an appreciable volume of renewable energy sources is used to generate electric power. Even though they are intended to improve the reliability of the power system, the unpredictable outages of generators or transmission lines, an impulsive increase in demand, and failures of other equipment lead to congestion in one or more transmission lines. There are several ways to alleviate this transmission congestion, such as the installation of new generation facilities in the place where the demand is high, the addition of a new transmission facility, generation rescheduling, and curtailment of load …

High-Speed Separation Of Anechoic Mixtures Of Speech Signals Using Fusion Of Iterative And Closed-Forms Separation Method, Mahdi Mahdikhani, Mohammad Hosein Kahaei
High-Speed Separation Of Anechoic Mixtures Of Speech Signals Using Fusion Of Iterative And Closed-Forms Separation Method, Mahdi Mahdikhani, Mohammad Hosein Kahaei
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
We introduce the fusion of iterative and closed-forms separation (FICS) method for high-speed separation of anechoic mixed speech signals. This method is performed in two stages: 1) iterative-form separation and 2) closed-form separation. This algorithm significantly improves the separation quality simply due to incorporating only some specific frequency bins into computations. We apply the FICS method to the frequency-domain independent component analysis (ICA) to evaluate its performance in increasing the signal separation speed for anechoic mixtures. Simulation results show that for speech signals and anechoic conditions, the proposed algorithm is on average 65 times faster than ICA while preserving the …

Speech Emotion Recognition Using Nonlinear Dynamics Features, Ali Shahzadi, Alireza Ahmadyfard, Ali Harimi, Khashayar Yaghmaie
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Recent developments in man--machine interaction have motivated researchers to recognize human emotion from speech signals. In this study, we propose using nonlinear dynamics features (NLDs) for emotion recognition. NLDs are extracted from the geometrical properties of the reconstructed phase space of speech signals. The traditional prosodic and spectral features are also used as a benchmark. The Fisher discriminant ratio acts as a filter to remove irrelevant features quickly. Then a wrapper method based on a genetic algorithm and support vector machine is employed to find the best feature subset that obtains the maximum recognition rate. The classification accuracy of the …

Analysis And Design Of An Interleaved Current-Fed High Step-Up Quasi-Resonant Dc-Dc Converter For Fuel Cell Applications, Sina Salehi, Behrooz Vahidi, Jafar Milimonfared, Maghdad Taheri, Hadi Moradi
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
This paper proposes a current-fed quasi-resonant converter with soft switching method. Input current ripple is reduced by employing two boost circuits at the input, which makes this converter appropriate for fuel cell application. Current stress on switches is reduced because of the resonance in switches, and also, as a result of zero voltage switching in switches, switching losses will be reduced in this proposed converter. In the output, the reverse recovery problem of diodes is alleviated by zero current switching, so there is no need for fast diodes anymore. The reduction of losses improves the efficiency, and in a wide …

Impedance Modeling For Classification Of Flavored Green Teas, Munendra Singh, Sunil Semwal, Ashavani Kumar, Shailendra Singh
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
This paper proposes an electrical impedance model of flavored green teas. Typically, impedance data of flavored green teas, obtained by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), fit into an equivalent circuit that represents the physical and chemical processes taking place in it. The total impedance of each flavor alone is not sufficient, but different values of impedance parameters in the electrical impedance model are responsible for better classification of flavored green teas. Successfully classified data on the basis of their flavors were obtained by different support vector machine (SVM) techniques with encouraging results. The results show that a linear SVM has better …

Improving The Drain-Current Expression Of Bsim4 For Hot-Carrier Degradation Modeling That Is Suitable For Analog Applications, Gürsel Düzenli̇
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
The reliability evaluation of MOS transistors is one of the most important subjects in device engineering and VLSI design. The down-scaling of device dimensions adversely affects device reliability and lifetime. Although different factors contribute to device reliability and lifetime, the most influential factor is hot-carrier degradation. Furthermore, hot-carrier degradation affects each application uniquely. In analog applications, hot-carrier degradation is more complex and diverse relative to digital applications. In this study, we improve the BSIM4 drain-current model to develop a hot-carrier degradation model that is suitable for both analog and digital applications. Our approach is readily applicable to all process technologies …
A New Method For Segmentation Of Microscopic Images On Activated Sludge, Hali̇me Boztoprak, Yüksel Özbay
A New Method For Segmentation Of Microscopic Images On Activated Sludge, Hali̇me Boztoprak, Yüksel Özbay
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Activated sludge samples were taken from the Konya Wastewater Treatment Plant. Two hundred images for each sample were captured by a systematic examination of the slides. Segmentation of microscopic images is a challenging process due to lack of focus. Therefore, adjustment of the focus is required for every movement of the mobile stage. Because the mobile stage does not have the z axis, the focus cannot be adjusted. A new method that uses automatic segmentation of the captured images is developed for solving this problem. The proposed method is not dependent on image content, has minimal computation complexity, and is …

Ga Based Adaptive Receiver For Mc-Cdma System, Muhammad Adnan Khan, Muhammad Umair, Muhammad Aamer Saleem Choudhry
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Multicarrier systems like the multicarrier code division multiple access (MC-CDMA) systems are designed for maximum usability of available bandwidth. We use the MC-CDMA system with Alamouti's space time coding in this paper. We propose the genetic algorithm (GA) in order to calculate MC-CDMA receiver weights with two variation schemes. The proposed schemes reduce receiver complexity. The bit error rate and convergence rate are also improved by increasing the number of genes and chromosomes of the GA in both schemes as compared with conventional LMS based receivers of the MC-CDMA system. This is verified via simulations.

Point estimate methods constitute a remarkable tool to handle stochastic power system problems because good results can be achieved using the same routines as those corresponding to deterministic problems, while keeping the computational burden low. The problem is formulated as a nonlinear constraint optimization problem to minimize the total …
