A refined Hilbert-Huang transform with applications to interarea oscillation monitoring
, IEEE Transactions on Power Systems, Vol: 24, Pages: 610-620, ISSN: 0885-8950This paper focuses on the refinement of standard Hilbert–Huang transform (HHT) technique to accurately characterize time varying, multicomponents interarea oscillations. Several improved masking techniques for empirical mode decomposition (EMD) and a local Hilbert transformer are proposed and a number of issues regarding their use and interpretation are identified. Simulated response data from a complex power system model are used to assess the efficacy of the proposed techniques for capturing the temporal evolution of critical system modes. It is shown that the combination of the proposed methods result in superior frequency and temporal resolution than other approaches for analyzing complicated nonstationary oscillations.

Iterative behavioral modeling of charge-pump-based electronic ballast-fluorescent lamp system
, IEEE Transactions on Power Electronics, Vol: 24, Pages: 278-287, ISSN: 0885-8993A new behavioral model for analyzing the current-source charge-pump-based ballast with a self-oscillatory gate drive circuit is proposed in this paper. A detailed model derivation is presented and the model is applied to analyze a ballast system of a 16-W compact fluorescent lamp (CFL) as an illustration. The ballast of the CFL consists of a self-oscillatory driven inverter stage and charge pump circuitry. The iterative modeling technique links together the three mutual dependent parts of the system, namely: 1) the charge pump circuit; 2) the self-oscillatory gate drive; and 3) the lamp model, so that they can be designed and studied as an integrated system. It is shown that the model can give a comprehensive interpretation of the whole system and provide a reasonable prediction of the ballast behavior. © 2009 IEEE.

A generalized theory of boundary control for a single-phase multilevel inverter using second-order switching surface
, IEEE Transactions on Power Electronics, Vol: 24, Pages: 2298-2313, ISSN: 0885-8993An extension of the use of the boundary control method using second-order switching functions for controlling single-phase multilevel inverters is presented in this paper. The time instant of switching the output voltage of the inverter bridge from one voltage level to another voltage level is governed by two second-order switching functions. The input variables of the switching functions are the input and output voltages of the inverter, reference output voltage, and output filter capacitor current. The switching functions are derived by first estimating the respective trajectories of the output voltage of the inverter with the two possible voltage levels from the inverter bridge supplying to the input of the output filter, and then formulating mathematical functions to approximate the two trajectories (one for each voltage level) that pass through the target operating point. The distinct feature of this method is that the output voltage of the inverter can reach the target operating point in two switching actions in the inverter bridge after the inverter is subjected to an external disturbance. Derivation of the switching functions and implementation of the controller will be given. Three single-phase inverter topologies, including cascaded five-level inverter, hybrid seven-level inverter, and three-level diode-clamped inverter, with the proposed control method have been built and tested. The steady-state and largesignal dynamic responses of the three inverters supplying to three different load types, including resistive, inductive, and nonlinear diode-capacitor circuits, will be discussed. © 2009 IEEE.

A simple physical low pressure discharge lamp model
, 2009 IEEE Energy Conversion Congress and Exposition, ECCE 2009, Pages: 2051-2058A simple physical low pressure discharge lamp model has been proposed in this paper. The new model is based on the physical processes inside a fluorescent lamp by considering the increasing rate of electron density and the ambipolar diffusion process. The model can accurately predict not only the lamp electrical terminal characteristics but also the electron density and electron temperature inside the fluorescent lamp. The results are comparable with the predictions from the complicated plasma models. The simple lamp model can accurately predict the lamp characteristics at both high and low operating frequencies, and the voltage spikes caused by arc re-ignition at each half cycle when the lamp is operated at mains frequency. This model can be easily implemented into MATLAB/Simulink as a simple, accurate and user-friendly CAD tool. © 2009 IEEE.

An improved semi-theoretical fluorescent lamp model for dimmable applications
, Conference Proceedings - IEEE Applied Power Electronics Conference and Exposition - APEC, Pages: 819-825Due to the energy-saving and environmentally friendly features, dimmable magnetic ballasts will be paid more attention in the future. This make a more accurate fluorescent lamp model at different dimming levels necessary at low operating frequency. This paper presents a new method that considers the effect of tube temperature at different dimming levels in the process of the analysis of the fluorescent lamp model. The model is verified favorably by the comparison between the simulation results and experimental results. It's clear that after the effect of tube temperature at different dimming levels is considered, the model becomes more accurate and reliable than before. This model can be used to design dimmable magnetic ballast. Hence, the proposed model shows a good degree of accuracy for a large dimming range at different operating frequencies. ©2009 IEEE.

Dynamic control of a light-emitting diode system based on the general photo-electro-thermal theory
, 2009 IEEE Energy Conversion Congress and Exposition, ECCE 2009, Pages: 2815-2820This paper presents a dynamic thermal model of a LED system and a control strategy for optimal power point tracking (OPPT). The control strategy is based on the general theory which links the photometric, electric and thermal behaviors of LEDs together. The control implementation enables the optimal operating of the LED systems to be determined dynamically. By measuring the ambient temperature and the heatsink temperature of LED system, the proposed control scheme allows the LED system to operate at the optimal dynamic operating points at which maximum luminous flux is generated. Practical tests have been carried out to verify the model and the general theory. © 2009 IEEE.

Oscillations in I/O Monotone Systems Under Negative Feedback
, IEEE T AUTOMAT CONTR, Pages: 166-176, ISSN: 0018-9286Oscillatory behavior is a key property of many biological systems. The small-gain theorem (SGT) for input/output monotone systems provides a sufficient condition for global asymptotic stability of an equilibrium, and hence its violation is a necessary condition for the existence of periodic solutions. One advantage of the use of the monotone SGT technique is its robustness with respect to all perturbations that preserve monotonicity and stability properties of a very low-dimensional (in many interesting examples, just one-dimensional) model reduction. This robustness makes the technique useful in the analysis of molecular biological models in which there is large uncertainty regarding the values of kinetic and other parameters. However, verifying the conditions needed in order to apply the SGT is not always easy. This paper provides an approach to the verification of the needed properties and illustrates the approach through an application to a classical model of circadian oscillations, as a nontrivial "case study," and provides a theorem in the converse direction of predicting oscillations when the SGT conditions fail.

MEMS Energy Harvesting Powered Wireless Biometric Sensor
, Wearable and Implantable Body Sensor Networks, 2009. BSN 2009. Sixth International Workshop on, Pages: 207-212One of the main challenges in developing wireless biometric sensors is the requirement for integration of various systems into a very compact device. Such systems include sensing units, conditioning electronics, transmitters and power supplies. In this work, a novel system integration architecture is presented. A unique feature of this new architecture is that the sub-systems are selected and designed for direct output-to-input connection. An array of active pH sensors is used to transform a pH level to an electrical potential in the range of 0 - 2 Volts. This signal is amplified by an electrostatic energy harvester suitable for human motion operation. The amplified signal drives a custom LC transmitter specially designed to suit the harvester output. A system of notable simplicity is achieved and may serve as a demonstrator for other wireless sensors.
