Communication-based distributed secondary control is extensively used in DC microgrids. Compared to centralized control, it can provide better voltage regulation and load sharing in microgrids. A conventional secondary control technique that converge...

The shock and vibration of electric wheelchairs undergoing road irregularities is inevitable. The road excitation causes the uneven magnetic gap of the motor, and the harmful vibration decreases the recovery rate of rehabilitation patients. To effect...

Many healthcare problems are life threatening and need real-time detection to improve patient safety. Heart attack or ventricular fibrillation (VF) is a common problem worldwide. Most previous research on VF detection has used ECG devices to capture...

This paper proposes a method for phase difference measurement based on the principle of progressive phase shift (PPS). A phase difference measurement system based on PPS and implemented in the FPGA chip is proposed and tested. In the realized system,...

Design methodology and implementation of an all SiC power semiconductor-based, grid-connected multi-string photovoltaic (PV) supply with an isolated high frequency (HF) link maximum power point tracker (MPPT) have been described. This system configur...

Collision avoidance is a critical task in many applications, such as ADAS (advanced driver-assistance systems), industrial automation and robotics. In an industrial automation setting, certain areas should be off limits to an automated vehicle for pr...

During the flight of the quadrotor, the existence of a slung load will exert a swing effect on the system and the motion of which will significantly change the dynamics of the quadrotor. The external torque caused by the slung load can be considered...

The high degree of miniaturization in the electronics industry has been, for several years, a driver to push embedded systems to different fields and applications. One example is safety-critical systems, where the compactness in the form factor helps...

This paper aims to propose a novel design of high-security USB flash drives with the chaos authentication. A chaos authentication approach with the non-linear encryption and decryption function design is newly proposed and realized based on the contr...

The emerging resistive switching devices have attracted broad interest as promising candidates for future memory and computing applications. Particularly, it is believed that memristor-based neuromorphic engineering promises to enable efficient artif...
