Abstract: The design and test results of a current-sensing system used for the protection of
frequency converters, which are used for controlling the speeds of ac induction motors, are
presented. The proposed pulse current-sensing system consists of a magnetic field sensor,
which is made of thin polycrystalline La-Sr-Mn-O manganite film exhibiting the colossal
magnetoresistance (CMR) effect, and a microcontroller with a 12-bit A/D converter that is
used for recording the fault current signal.

Abstract: In this paper, a novel capacitive strip sensor for the PD measurement is
proposed and testified under the context of prefabricated 110-kV XLPE cable joints.
First, a simulation model based on finite integration technique is established. Then, the
transmission mode and the frequency spectrum of the electromagnetic wave related to the
PD signal are investigated. Furthermore, the energy distribution of the PD signal among
the cable joint is analyzed to identify the optimal position of installation.

Abstract: In this paper, a novel real-time digital signal processing (DSP)-based load
angle measurement instrument for synchronous generators is discussed. This real-time
instrument is designed for high-precision online applications. In this approach, input
signals contain the rotor's shaft position and zero crossing of generator terminal voltage is
applied to a DSP board to achieve the online load angle.

Disturbance Diamond in flowchart: Here the disturbances are any event that causes the
power system to disrupt power generation and transmission, like a line to line fault, three
phase faults etc.
Detection as rightly stated, is given on page 1823. The authors are using swing equation (
in simple language) to determine whether there is a disturbance or not (equation (1) and
equation (2)). The hardware implementation is done using a real time simulator for big
power systems, RTDS (manufacturer) is this case.

The system represented at top is standard IEEE 39 Bus system. For the section
represented on the left the explanation is as follow:
a. Bus 38: Is a generator bus, or a synchronous generator is connected at this bus.
b. Bus 29, 28, 27 and 26 are load buses. Please refer to Fig 9 also from the paper
( shown below)
c. 830 is the generator load at bus 38 in MVA.
d. The data written on the lines (191, 347 …) are the average active power weights,
that is defined by the authors for there study ,see page 1825, column 2,

Transition of Microgrids Operation From Grid-Connected to Islanded Mode,"
in IEEE Transactions on Smart Grid
Abstract: In grid-connected mode, DERs usually work under grid-following control
strategy, while at least one of the DERs must operate in grid-forming strategy in
islanding mode. A microgrid may experience remarkable fluctuations in voltage and
current due to an unintentional islanding event. To achieve a smooth transition to
islanding mode and mitigate disturbance effect, this paper proposes a control strategy
includes a) a linear voltage controller with capacitor current feedback as an input to the
voltage controller and output current feedforward as an input to current controller, and b)
modified droop control to emulate the inertia response of a synchronous generator. The
proposed controller can suppress voltage, current and frequency fluctuations and also
guarantee a smooth transition.
Implementation: They have fist done Small Signal Analysis, and then have used
dSPACE to implement the controller. dSPACE is a real time simulator based on
MATLAB Simulink

Small Signal Analysis: For stability evaluation of the modified droop control, a small
signal analysis is conducted. By using the linearized model obtained, root-locus method
is used to determine the stability of the system. Below image is just for an example.
MATLAB/ Simulink + dSPACE: The author fist made the proposed control strategy in
MATLAB/Simulink that is directly connected to dSPACE1006. The model built in
Simulink programs the dSPACE board, that generates firing pulses, and control the actual
Voltage source converter (in this paper 2.2 kW danfoss inverter)

Abstract: This paper proposes a control system for single-phase bidirectional PWM
converters for residential power level microgrid systems which is robust and can tolerate
transitions between the different modes of operation. This is achieved by means of a
common inner ac current-loop. A frequency-response based design procedure for the
proposed control system is presented in detail for all operating modes, and its
performance is verified experimentally using a DSP-controlled 6 kW 120 V rms (ac)/ 300
V (dc) laboratory converter prototype.
