Design factors for developing a university campus microgrid
(2018)
Recent decentralization of electricity systems together with the decarbonization and several changing societal demands are giving rise to different application scenarios such as microgrids. A microgrid is a small-scale ...
Effect of Load Composition on the Frequency Response of the Cyprus Power System
(2018)
The Cyprus power system is undergoing vast changes due to the increasing penetration of renewable energy sources. The isolated nature of the system makes it more vulnerable to large frequency deviations. As a consequence, ...
Survivable and Secure Elastic Optical Networks using Network Coding
(2019)
In this work, the concept of network coding (NC) is used in conjunction with the routing and spectrum allocation (RSA) problem to jointly provide security and protection in elastic optical networks (EONs). Specifically, ...
Identification and Estimation of Erroneous Transmission Line Parameters Using PMU Measurements
(2018)
The accurate knowledge of the transmission line parameters can be beneficial for several monitoring and control applications accommodated in the power system control center. Actually transmission line parameters are stored ...
Resilient Wheel-Based Optical Access Network Architecture
(2019)
This work proposes a resilient wheel-based optical access network architecture for backhauling network traffic. This proposed resilient architecture can efficiently support not only the fixed users but also the mobile users ...
A self-adaptive microwave photonic bandpass filter
(2019)
We present a microwave photonic self-adaptive bandpass filter that performs filtering on the instantaneous frequency of an unknown microwave signal. The filter maintains a bandpass characteristic around the carrier frequency ...
A Real-Time Controlled Islanding and Restoration Scheme Based on Estimated States
(2019)
Power system operators are facing major challenges today to keep the system operating at the admissible limits. Recent blackouts demonstrated the need for a systematic study and design of a comprehensive system control ...
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles in Consumer Applications: New Applications in Current and Future Smart Environments
(2019)
The advances in communication, computation, and sensing technologies have led researchers, academics, and aircraft industries to strive to design efficient enabling technologies for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). UAVs ...
Large Scale Desalination as a Cost Effective, Controlled Electric Load Resource
(2018)
Desalination of seawater and river water is a known technology with the capability of addressing the needs for clean and clear water. The process has a unique capability of storage which has a nexus to energy storage. The ...
Prostate-specific membrane antigen cleavage of vitamin B9 stimulates oncogenic signaling through metabotropic glutamate receptors
(2018)
Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) or folate hydrolase 1 (FOLH1) is highly expressed on prostate cancer. Its expression correlates inversely with survival and increases with tumor grade. However, the biological role ...
