Vector Signal Transceiver (VST) in LabVIEW: A Review
Abstract: AbstractOver the past few decades, the increasingly popular architecture of RF systems with software has become increasingly popular. Almost every commercial automated RF system (COTS) today uses application software for communication via the bus interface with the device. As the complexity of radio frequency applications is increasing, engineers are constantly faced with the dilemma of increasing functionality without increasing testing time and, ultimately, to verify the cost. Although improvements in …

An Overview on Energy Harvesting Using Piezoelectric Material for Wi-Fi Systems
Abstract: The rapid proliferation of wireless-networked devices has intensified the demand for sustainable, maintenance-free power sources that can keep small-scale Wi-Fi modules operational in hard-to-reach or infrastructure-limited environments. This study investigates the feasibility of harvesting ambient mechanical energy using piezoelectric transduction technology and directly feeding the harvested power to a low-power Wi-Fi communication subsystem. A compact energy-harvesting module was engineered from lead-zirconate-titanate (PZT) cantilevers with resonant frequencies tuned to the dominant …

A PWM Based Series Compensator for Power System Performance Enhancement
Abstract: Enhancement of power system stability through a relatively new FACTS device named pulse width modulated series compensator (PWMSC) in the transmission line has been investigated in this article. The three-phase PWMSC is realized with a simple pulse width modulated (PWM) AC link converter consisting of four force-commutated switches and a three-phase diode bridge. The PWMSC is modeled as a continuously controllable series capacitive reactance in the transmission line of a …

Design and Development of Experimental Test Rig for Fatigue Life Estimation of Freewheel One-Way Clutch Used in Switchgear Applications at High Overrunning Speeds
Abstract: Freewheel one-way clutch (OWC) is a critical component used in industrial circuit breakers/switchgear to facilitate quick disengagement of the drive when an electrical circuit trips under overcurrent. The clutch acts as a safety device to endure high overrunning speeds and allows the drive shaft to rotate at normal operating speeds during each tripping cycle. The trip mechanism utilizes the stored potential energy of the helical compression spring, which is the …
