Assessing test suites of extended finite state machines against model and code based faults
(John Wiley & Sons, 2021)Tests can be derived from extended finite state machine (EFSM) specifications considering the coverage of single-transfer faults, all transitions using a transition tour, all-uses, edge-pair, and prime path with side trip. ... -
Assessing the Impact of Reactive Power Droop on Inverter Based Microgrid Stability
(IEEE, 2021-01)Droop control is the most common approach for controlling inverter-based micro-grids. The active power droop gain has always been considered as the main parameter for identifying the micro-grid stability margin. Increasing ... -
Balun LNA Thermal Noise Analysis and Balancing With Common-Source Degeneration Resistor
(IEEE, 2020)The Balun low noise amplifier (LNA) is an LNA that exploits a combination of a common-source (CS) and a common-gate (CG) transistors, which cancels the noise and distortion of the CG stage. And since the CG is known to be ... -
Battery Energy Management Techniques for an Electric Vehicle Traction System
(IEEE Access, 2022)This paper presents two battery energy management (BEM) techniques for an electric vehicle (EV) traction system which incorporates an indirect field-oriented (IFO) induction motor (IM) drive system. The main objective of ... -
Behavioral Modeling of GaN Doherty Power Amplifiers Using Memoryless Polar Domain Functions and Deep Neural Networks
