Comparative study of FFA architectures using different multiplier and adder topologies

Abstract: Parallel FIR filter is the prime block of many modern communication application such as MIMO, multi-point transceivers etc. But hardware replication problem of parallel techniques make the system more bulky and costly. Fast FIR algorithm (FFA) gives the best alternative to traditional parallel techniques. In this paper, FFA based FIR structures with different topologies of multiplier and adder are implemented. To optimize design different multiplication technique like add and shift method, Vedic multiplier and booth multiplier are used for computation. Various adders such as carry select adder, carry save adder and Han-Carlson adder are analyzed for improved performance of the FFA structure. The basic objective is to investigate the performance of these designs for the tradeoffs between area, delay and power dissipation. Comparative study is carried out among conventional and different proposed designs. The advantage of presented work is that; based on the constraints, one can select the suitable design for specific application. It also fulfils the literature gap of critical analysis of FPGA implementation of FFA architecture using different multiplier and adder topologies. Xilinx Vivado HLS tool is used to implement the proposed designs in VHDL.

Reduced switches multilevel inverter integration with boost converters in photovoltaic system

Abstract: Multilevel inverters (MLIs) are developed to meet medium voltage and high power applications in flexible power systems. The conventional configuration of multilevel inverter requires more switches and has limitation to its wide range application. This paper reports the performed work on 1-phase 7-level reduced switch multilevel inverter (RS MLI) in photovoltaic (PV) system. RS MLI configuration integration with PV system which uses less number of switching components for specified number of voltage output levels as compared to that of conventional multilevel inverter topology. To performed enhanced operation of PV cells and maximize the solar energy extraction an incremental conductance based maximum power point tracking scheme is used. To improve the quality of RS MLI output parameters mainly total harmonic distortion and switching losses, selected harmonic elimination based genetic algorithm method is consider for control the gating pulse of PV based RS MLI. This work is performed using MATLAB/SIMULINK software.

Optimal Design of PID Controller for Load Frequency Control using Harmony Search Algorithm

Abstract: This paper deals with soft computing technique, used for tuning PID controller. Controller tuned with a harmony search algorithm is used for controlling the frequency and Tie-line power responses of a non reheat two area power system. Step load perturbation has been given in both areas simultaneously. The dynamic results obtained by the proposed controller are compared with PID controller of recent published paper. The performance of the controllers is simulated using MATLAB/Simulation software. The results of tuned PID are compared with conventional controller on the basis of settling-time, peak over-shoot and peak under-shoot. Proposed PID gives better results than the conventional controller. The comparative results also tabulated as a comparative performance.
