DC Emergency Power Control Strategy for AC/DC Multi-Channel Interconnected System

Inter-regional transmission line fault often results in power flow transferring, tie-line overloading and system islanding. Traditional control methods such asgenerator tripping and load shedding are costly, and also have undesirable impacts on theloadside. In this paper, a new emergency power control strategy is proposed for multi-channel interconnected system by using the overload capacity of non-fault DC lines. First of all, the capacity of emergency power control can be acquired by critical transmission power of a certain tie-line for stability. Secondly, the shortest electric distance can be calculated by Dijkstra algorithm, and then the priority of emergency control of the DC lines can be obtained by the entropy weight method. When the inter-regional transmission power decreases and the effect of single DC line emergency control is poor, the multi-channel cooperative emergency control strategy is proposed to ensure the system stability. Simulation results verify the effectiveness of the method proposed.

Design of a low power 10 bit 300 ksps multi-channel SAR ADC for wireless sensor network applications

This paper presents a low power 10 bit 300 ksps successive approximation register analog-to-digital converter （SAR ADC） which is applied in wireless sensor network （WSN） applications. A single ended energy- saving split capacitor DAC array and a latch comparator with a rail to rail input stage are utilized to implement the ADC, which can reduce power dissipation while expanding the full scale input range and improve the signal-to- noise ratio （SNR）. For power optimization the supply voltage of the SAR ADC is designed to be as low as 2 V. Four analog input channels are designed which make the ADC more suitable for WSN applications. The prototype circuit is fabricated using 3.3 V, 0.35μm 2P4M CMOS technology and occupies an active chip area of 1.23 mm2. The test results show that the power dissipation is only 200μW at a 2 V power supply and a sampling rate of 166 ksps. The calculated SNR is 58.25 dB, the ENOB is 9.38 bit and the FOM is 4.95 p J/conversion-step.

Fairness-oriented routing algorithm joint with power control and channel assignment for multi-radio multi-channel wireless mesh networks

The multi-radio multi-channel wireless mesh network （MRMC-WMN） draws general attention because of its excellent throughput performance, robustness and relative low cost. The closed interactions among power control （PC）, channel assignment （CA） and routing is contributed to the performance of multi-radio multi-channel wireless mesh networks （MRMC-WMNs）. However, the joint PC, CA and routing （JPCR） design, desired to achieve a global optimization, was poor addressed. The authors present a routing algorithm joint with PC and CA （JPCRA） to seek the routing, power and channel scheme for each flow, which can improve the fairness performance. Firstly, considering available channels and power levels, the routing metric, called minimum flow rate, is designed based on the physical interference and Shannon channel models. The JPCRA is presented based on the genetic algorithm （GA） with simulated annealing to maximize the minimum flow rate, an non-deterministic polynomial-time hard （NP-Hard） problem. Simulations show the JPCRA obtains better fairness among different flows and higher network throughput.

Low-latency Data Gathering with Reliability Guaranteeing in Heterogeneous Wireless Sensor Networks

In order to achieve low-latency and high-reliability data gathering in heterogeneous wireless sensor networks(HWSNs),the problem of multi-channel-based data gathering with minimum latency(MCDGML),which associates with construction of data gathering trees,channel allocation,power assignment of nodes and link scheduling,is formulated as an optimization problem in this paper.Then,the optimization problem is proved to be NP-hard.To make the problem tractable,firstly,a multi-channel-based low-latency(MCLL)algorithm that constructs data gathering trees is proposed by optimizing the topology of nodes.Secondly,a maximum links scheduling(MLS)algorithm is proposed to further reduce the latency of data gathering,which ensures that the signal to interference plus noise ratio(SINR)of all scheduled links is not less than a certain threshold to guarantee the reliability of links.In addition,considering the interruption problem of data gathering caused by dead nodes or failed links,a robust mechanism is proposed by selecting certain assistant nodes based on the defined one-hop weight.A number of simulation results show that our algorithms can achieve a lower data gathering latency than some comparable data gathering algorithms while guaranteeing the reliability of links,and a higher packet arrival rate at the sink node can be achieved when the proposed algorithms are performed with the robust mechanism.
