Application of Wavelet De-noising for Wind Speed Retrieval from a 2.5 MHz Partial Reflection Radar
Abstract: Atmospheric studies related to middle-atmospheric coupling, climate monitoring, steering profiles for expendable launch vehicles and re-entry missions require atmospheric wind profiles as an important input. Atmospheric wind profiling is conventionally carried out using rawinsondes and radiosondes flown in high altitude balloons, complemented by sounding rockets and ground-based radars. The partial reflection radar (PRR) can be effectively used for the same purpose to an altitude of about 100 km. But deriving …

THD Minimization of 27 Level Inverter using FPGA Control Strategy
Abstract: Normally single phase inverter gives only +230 V or –230 V. But multilevel inverter gives the variable output voltage in various levels and also the harmonics are reduced. If harmonics are produced, it affects the output of the load. Most of the industrial applications rely on Induction motors because of the reliable operation, low cost and simple construction. So the Multilevel inverter output is connected to the Induction motor. Here …

Design of Active Power Based Relay Algorithm to Overcome Transient Instability: 220 kV Amravati Substation Case Study
Abstract: This paper presents a new protective scheme, i.e. new relay algorithm to protect small scale generators against transient instability. The demand of installing small generators in distribution networks has been increased now-a-days. Small scale generators have low inertia constant. The inertia constant minimizes the frequency deviation which depends on the kinetic energy. Therefore frequency dynamics becomes slower and hence it increases the response time to react to fault events. Due …
