Integrated cmos rectifier for rf-powered wireless sensor network nodesjournalBEEI
This article presents a review of the CMOS rectifier for radio frequency energy harvesting application. The on-chip rectifier converts the ambient low-power radio frequency signal coming to antenna to useable DC voltage that recharges energy to wireless sensor network (WSN) nodes and radiofrequency identification (RFID) tags, therefore the rectifier is the most important part of the radio frequency energy harvesting system. The impedance matching network maximizes power transfer from antenna to rectifier. The design and comparison between the simulation results of one- and multi-stage differential drive cross connected rectifier (DDCCR) at the operating frequencies of 2.44GHz, and 28GHz show the output voltage of the multi-stage rectifier doubles at each added stage and power conversion efficiency (PCE) of rectifier at 2.44GHz was higher than 28GHz. The (DDCCR) rectifier is the most efficient rectifier topology to date and is used widely for passive WSN nodes and RFID tags.

A REVIEW ON OPERATIONAL DISTANCE ENHANCEMENT OF THE ULTRA HIGH FREQUENCY (UHF...P singh
Ultra High Frequency (UHF) remains the most used frequency band for two-way radio communication in military telecommunications. The output power on the military radio which measured in Watts will determine the effective range of the UHF signal. The transmission and reception of the UHF signals could also be easily degraded by many variables such as atmospheric moisture, solar wind, physical obstructions such as mountains and buildings. All the obstructions cause the signal degradation which will limit the operational distance of the UHF signals. The main objective of this study is to eliminate the signal degradation solely by using an amplifier circuit that will act as a device to increase the power of the signal. The purpose of designing circuits in this study is to increase the output power of a transmitter which later on can replace unnecessary antenna.

Harmonics are the by - products of modern electronic devices i.e. nonlinear loads,this harmonics by drawing current in abrupt short pulses,rather than in a smooth sinusoidal manner. Any distribution circuit feeding nonlinear loads will contain some degree of harmonic frequencies in multiples . Due to the rapidly increasing number of non - linear loads in distribution systems,the harmonic distortion of the current and voltage increases. Examples of non - linear loads are personal computer,television set (TV),f luorescent tube with electronic ballast,compact fluorescent lamp,battery charger,uninterrupted power supply (UPS) and any other equipment powered by switched - mode power supply (SMPS) unit. As the number of harmonics - producing loads in residences has inc reased over the years,it has become increasingly necessary to address their effects on the distribution system. Power Quality of distribution networks is severely affected due to the flow of these generated harmonics. Harmonic currents generated by nonli n ear loads can cause problems on the power system. These harmonics can cause excessive heat in many appliances,and hence reduce the life span of the distribution transformer supplying such loads,protecting equipments in power system. It can also increase power consumption and reduce system efficiency. It also lowers the system power factor. In this paper presents the results of a SIMULINK of harmonic distortion caused by different non linear home appliances a nd analysis of percentage total harmonic distort ion which is found between ranges of 50 to greater than 200.

Module 2: Voltage Quality Regulation
Voltage quality, sometimes called power quality or technical quality, covers a variety of disturbances in an electrical power system. It is mainly determined by the quality of the voltage waveform and it is an important aspect of the electricity service.
Customers are becoming increasingly sensitive to disturbances in voltage quality. This issue is particularly important taking into account the new regulatory frameworks which put strong emphasis on cost reduction, thereby potentially jeopardizing quality. When setting up a quality regulation framework, there are a number of basic issues that need to be considered first. This understanding is crucial in order to make the right choices in order to arrive at an effective voltage quality regulatory system. It is important to clearly define voltage quality and develop suitable indicators.
This presentation assesses the issue of what regulators need to consider whenever establishing a voltage quality regulatory framework for distribution networks (i.e. up to 35 kV). It presents a general set of guidelines that regulators could consider in introducing and developing voltage quality regulation. Regulation of five important voltage quality dimensions is considered: short-interruptions, voltage dips, flicker, supply voltage variation and harmonic distortion.
DETERMINATION OF RF SOURCE POWER IN WPSN USING MODULATED BACKSCATTERINGijsc
A wireless sensor network (WSN) is a wireless network consisting of spatially distributed autonomous devices using sensors to cooperatively monitor physical or environmental conditions, such as temperature, sound, vibration, pressure, motion or pollutants, at different locations. During RF transmission energy consumed by critically energy-constrained sensor nodes in a WSN is related to the life time system, but the
life time of the system is inversely proportional to the energy consumed by sensor nodes. In that regard, modulated backscattering (MB) is a promising design choice, in which sensor nodes send their data just by switching their antenna impedance and reflecting the incident signal coming from an RF source. Hence wireless passive sensor networks (WPSN) designed to operate using MB do not have the lifetime
constraints. In this we are going to investigate the system analytically. To obtain interference-free communication connectivity with the WPSN nodes number of RF sources is determined and analyzed in terms of output power and the transmission frequency of RF sources, network size, RF source and WPSN node characteristics. The results of this paper reveal that communication coverage and RF Source Power
can be practically maintained in WPSN through careful selection of design parameters

Abstract: In this paper, a methodology has been proposed to minimize the losses of distribution systems (technical and non-technical losses) that is an absolutely necessary objective in the sound management of any electrical utility. The transmission & distribution losses in Indian power system are high. Most of the efforts of power planners concentrate on augmenting supply by building new power plants. But saving is possible by improving operating conditions for the distribution network. Due to inadequate planning and methods adopted for load shifting, some networks are under loaded while others are overloaded. Thus there is some scope for improvement in operating strategies. Network reconfiguration in distribution system is realized by changing the status of the sectionalizing switches and is usually done for loss reduction and avoids overloading. In primary distribution system (11KV), the need for reconfiguration occurs in emergency condition following the fault to isolate faulted section and in normal condition to reduce system losses or to avoid overloading of network. The main objective of the paper is to outline a methodology for management of distribution system for loss reduction by network reconfiguration. The possible techniques used for power loss reduction, which are network reconfiguration and capacitor addition. Case studies were simulated on an interconnected ring main distribution network.

A power quality presentation includes definitions of power quality, most common power quality problems and the solutions, standard carves, and practical example of an active filter. Presented by - Eng. Shemy Elhady
One of the major issue in power system is the losses occurs during the transmission and distribution of electrical power. As the demand increases day by day, the power generation increases and the power loss is also increased. The major amount of power loss occurs during transmission and distribution. The percentage of loss of power during transmission and distribution is approximated as 26%. The main reason for power loss during transmission and distribution is the resistance of wires used for grid. The efficiency of power transmission can be improved to certain level by using high strength composite overhead conductors and underground cables that use high temperature super conductor. But, the transmission is still inefficient. According to the World Resources Institute (WRI), India’s electricity grid has the highest transmission and distribution losses in the world – a whopping 27%. Numbers published by various Indian government agencies put that number at 30%,40% and greater than 40%. This is attributed to technical losses (grid’s inefficiencies) and theft. Any problem can be solved by state of the art technology. The above discussed problem can be solvedby choose an alternative option for power transmission which could provide much higher efficiency, low transmission cost and avoid power theft. Microwave Power Transmission is one of the promising technologies and may be the righteous alternative for efficient power transmission.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
DOWNLOAD
The main objective of this project is to develop a device for wireless power transfer. The concept of wireless power transfer was realized by Nikolas tesla. Wireless power transfer can make a remarkable change in the field of the electrical engineering which eliminates the use conventional copper cables and current carrying wires.
Based on this concept, the project is developed to transfer power within a small range. This project can be used for charging batteries those are physically not possible to be connected electrically such as pace makers (An electronic device that works in place of a defective heart valve) implanted in the body that runs on a battery.
The patient is required to be operated every year to replace the battery. This project is designed to charge a rechargeable battery wirelessly for the purpose. Since charging of the battery is not possible to be demonstrated, we are providing a DC fan that runs through wireless power.
This project is built upon using an electronic circuit which converts AC 230V 50Hz to AC 12V, High frequency. The output is fed to a tuned coil forming as primary of an air core transformer. The secondary coil develops a voltage of HF 12volt.
Thus the transfer of power is done by the primary(transmitter) to the secondary that is separated with a considerable distance(say 3cm). Therefore the transfer could be seen as the primary transmits and the secondary receives the power to run load.
Moreover this technique can be used in number of applications, like to charge a mobile phone, iPod, laptop battery, propeller clock wirelessly. And also this kind of charging provides a far lower risk of electrical shock as it would be galvanically isolated.

On the High Dimentional Information Processing in Quaternionic Domain and its...IJAAS Team
There are various high dimensional engineering and scientific applications in communication, control, robotics, computer vision, biometrics, etc.; where researchers are facing problem to design an intelligent and robust neural system which can process higher dimensional information efficiently. The conventional real-valued neural networks are tried to solve the problem associated with high dimensional parameters, but the required network structure possesses high complexity and are very time consuming and weak to noise. These networks are also not able to learn magnitude and phase values simultaneously in space. The quaternion is the number, which possesses the magnitude in all four directions and phase information is embedded within it. This paper presents a well generalized learning machine with a quaternionic domain neural network that can finely process magnitude and phase information of high dimension data without any hassle. The learning and generalization capability of the proposed learning machine is presented through a wide spectrum of simulations which demonstrate the significance of the work.
Using FPGA Design and HIL Algorithm Simulation to Control Visual ServoingIJAAS Team
This is a novel research paper provides an optimal solution for object tracking using visual servoing control system with programmable gate array technology to realize the visual controller. The controller takes in account the robot dynamics to generate the joint torques directly for performing the tasks related to object tracking using visual servoing. Also, the notion of dynamic perceptibility provides the capability of the designed system to track desired objects employing direct visual servoing technique. This idea is assimilated in the suggested controller and realized in the programmable gate array. Additionally, this paper grants an ideal control framework for direct visual servoing robots that incorporates dynamic perceptibility features. With the aim of evaluating the proposed FPGA based architecture, the control algorithm is applied to Hardware-in-the-loop simulation (HIL) set up of three degrees of freedom rigid robotic manipulator with three links. Furthermore, different investigations are performed to demonstrate the behavior of the proposed system when a trajectory adjacent to a singularity is attained.
Mitigation of Selfish Node Attacks In Autoconfiguration of MANETsIJAAS Team
Mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) are composed of mobile nodes connected by wireless links without using any pre-existent infrastructure. Hence the assigning of unique IP address to the incoming node becomes difficult. There are various dynamic auto configuration protocols available to assign IP address to the incoming nodes including grid based protocol which assigns IP address with less delay and low protocol overhead. Such protocols get affected by presence of either selfish nodes or malicious nodes. Moreover there is no centralized approach to defend against these threats like in wired network such as firewall, intrusion detection system, proxy etc. The selfish nodes are the nodes which receive packet destined to it and drop packet destined to other nodes in order to save its energy and resources. This behavior of nodes affects normal functioning of auto configuration protocol. Many algorithms are available to isolate selfish nodes but they do not deal with presence of false alarm and protocol overhead. And also there are certain algorithms which use complex formulae and tedious mathematical calculations. The proposed algorithm in this paper helps to overcome the attack of selfish nodes effect in an efficient and scalable address auto configuration protocol that automatically configures a network by assigning unique IP addresses to all nodes with a very low protocol overhead, minimal address acquisition delay and computational overhead.
Vision Based Approach to Sign Language RecognitionIJAAS Team
We propose an algorithm for automatically recognizing some certain amount of gestures from hand movements to help deaf and dumb and hard hearing people. Hand gesture recognition is quite a challenging problem in its form. We have considered a fixed set of manual commands and a specific environment, and develop a effective, procedure for gesture recognition. Our approach contains steps for segmenting the hand region, locating the fingers, and finally classifying the gesture which in general terms means detecting, tracking and recognising. The algorithm is non-changing to rotations, translations and scale of the hand. We will be demonstrating the effectiveness of the technique on real imagery.
Design and Analysis of an Improved Nucleotide Sequences Compression Algorithm...IJAAS Team
DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid), is the hereditary material in humans and almost all other organisms. Nearly every cell in a person’s body has the same DNA. The information in DNA is stored as a code made up of four chemical bases: adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and thymine (T). With continuous technology development and growth of sequencing data, large amount of biological data is generated. This large amount of generated data causes difficulty to store, analyse and process DNA sequences. So there is a wide need of reducing the size, for this reason, DNA Compression is employed to reduce the size of DNA sequence. Therefore there is a huge need of compressing the DNA sequence. In this paper, we have proposed an efficient and fast DNA sequence compression algorithm based on differential direct coding and variable look up table (LUT).

WSN is a network which consists of huge amount of sensor devices which are of low cost and low powered also known as sensor nodes. These type of networks are generally used in real time applications such as monitoring of environmental conditions, militaries, industries etc., .but the problem that exists in WSN is may be due to different failures such as node failure, link failure, sink failure, interference, power dissipation and collision. If these faults are unable to handle then the desired network criteria’s may not be reached properly which results in inefficiency of the network. So, the main idea behind the investigation is to form a different networking topology which works in the event of failure.

This paper presents a simplified control strategy of SVPWM with a three segment switching sequence and 7 segment switch frequency for high power multilevel inverter. In the proposed method, the inverter switching sequences are optimized for minimization of device switching sequence frequency and improvement of harmonic spectrum by using the three most derived switching states and one suitable redundant state for each space vector. The proposed 3-segment sequence is compared with conventional 7-segment sequence similar for five level Cascaded H-Bridge inverter with various values of switching frequencies including very low frequency. The output spectrum of the proposed sequence design shows the reduction of device switching frequency and states current and line voltage. THD this minimizing the filter size requirement of the inverter, employed in industrial applications. Where sinusoidal output voltage is required.
An Examination of the Impact of Power Sector Reform on Manufacturing and Serv...IJAAS Team
The main objective of this study is to empirically examine the impact of Power Sector Reform on Manufacturing and Services Sector in Nigeria between 1999-2016. The study employed secondary annual time series data sourced from World Bank database (2016). The methodology adopted for the study was Augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADF); a test for long-run relationship using ARDL Bounds Testing approach with analysis of long-run and shortrun dynamics in the model. A striking revelation from the study is the inverse relationship that exists between manufacturing output and electricity consumption in Nigeria within the period referenced. This negative relationship is not unconnected with widespread allegation of misappropriation of budgeted funds for the Power Sector by successive administrations in Nigeria since 1999. It must be stated in clear terms that constant and consistent electricity generation, transmission and distribution is sine-qua-none for the growth of the national economy. Virtually all sectors of the economy depend on the supply of electricity to do business and so the lack of this vital ingredient of growth contributes in no small measure in stagnating economic growth and development. Efforts at reforming the power sector can only be fruitful when ALL stakeholders in the power sector including the political class put away their personal agendas and take the bull by the horn towards rescuing the nation from the looming danger of stagnant economic growth. Furthermore, there is the need for the Nigerian government to come up with new, better and alternative ways of improving energy generation and supply, as well as proper maintenance of electricity infrastructure in the country.
A Novel Handoff Necessity Estimation Approach Based on Travelling DistanceIJAAS Team
Mobility management is one of the most important challenges in Next
Generation Wireless Networks (NGWNs) as it enables users to move across
geographic boundaries of wireless networks. Nowadays, mobile
communications have heterogeneous wireless networks offering variable
coverage and Quality of Service (QoS). The availability of alternatives
generates a problem of occurrence of unnecessary handoff that results in
wastage of network resources. To avoid this, an efficient algorithm needs to
be developed to minimize the unnecessary handoffs. Conventionally,
whenever Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) connectivity is available,
the mobile node switch from cellular network to wireless local area network
to gain maximum use of high bandwidth and low cost of wireless local area
network as much as possible. But to maintain call quality and minimum
number of call failure, a considerable proportion of these handovers should
be determined. Our algorithm makes the handoff to wireless local area
network only when the Predicted Received Signal Strength (PRSS) falls
below a threshold value and travelling distance inside the wireless local area
network is larger than a threshold distance.Through MATLAB simulation,
we show that our algorithm is able to improve handover performance.

Physical Properties and Compressive Strength of Zinc Oxide Nanopowder as a Po...IJAAS Team
In this study, the application of nanotechnology was applied in the dentistry field, especially in the innovation of dental amalgam material. To date, mercury (Hg) has been used widely as dental amalgam material with consideration of the cheap price, ease of use, and good mechanical strength. However, last few years, many problems have been faced in the dentistry field due to the use of mercury. Hence, new material is needed as an innovation to eliminate the mercury from dental amalgam composition. This research was conducted to analyze the physical properties and compressive strength of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanopowder as a potential dental amalgam material. The physical properties such as morphology and dimensions were analyzed by SEM and XRD. Further, the compression test was conducted by using hydraulic press machine. The results showed that the ZnO nanopowder analyzed has the particle size of 14.34 nm with the morphology classified as nanorods type. On the compression load of 500 kg, the average of ZnO green density is 3.170 g/cm3. This value experienced the increase of 4.763% when the load was set to 1000 kg, and 7.539% at 2000 kg. The dwelling time also took the same effect. At 30 seconds, the average of ZnO green density is 3.260 g/cm3. This value experienced the increase of 0.583% at 60 seconds and 3.098% at 90 seconds.

The system, which 100% heated water by only using solar energy. The experimental weather conditions are measured every one minute. The experiments validation steps were performed for two periods, the first one concern the cloudy days in December, the second for the sunny days in May; the average deviations between the predicted and the experimental values is 2 %, 5 % for the water temperature output and for the useful energy are 4 %, 9 % respectively for the both typical days, which is very satisfied. The thermal efficiency was determined experimentally and theoretically and shown to agree well with the EN12975 standard for the flow rate between 0,02 kg/s and 0,2kg/s.
SLIC Superpixel Based Self Organizing Maps Algorithm for Segmentation of Micr...IJAAS Team
We can find the simultaneous monitoring of thousands of genes in parallel Microarray technology. As per these measurements, microarray technology have proven powerful in gene expression profiling for discovering new types of diseases and for predicting the type of a disease. Gridding, Intensity extraction, Enhancement and Segmentation are important steps in microarray image analysis. This paper gives simple linear iterative clustering (SLIC) based self organizing maps (SOM) algorithm for segmentation of microarray image. The clusters of pixels which share similar features are called Superpixels, thus they can be used as mid-level units to decrease the computational cost in many vision applications. The proposed algorithm utilizes superpixels as clustering objects instead of pixels. The qualitative and quantitative analysis shows that the proposed method produces better segmentation quality than k-means, fuzzy cmeans and self organizing maps clustering methods.
An Improved Greedy Parameter Stateless Routing in Vehicular Ad Hoc NetworkIJAAS Team
Congestion problem and packet delivery related issues in the vehicular ad hoc network environment is a widely researched problem in recent years. Many network designers utilize various algorithms for the design of ad hoc networks and compare their results with the existing approaches. The design of efficient network protocol is a major challenge in vehicular ad hoc network which utilizes the value of GPS and other parameters associated with the vehicles. In this paper GPSR protocol is improved and compared with the existing GPSR protocol and AODV protocol on the basis of various performance parameters like throughput of the network, delay and packet delivery ratio. The results also validate the performance of the proposed approach.
A Novel CAZAC Sequence Based Timing Synchronization Scheme for OFDM SystemIJAAS Team
Several classical timing synchronization schemes have been proposed for the timing synchronization in OFDM systems based on the correlation between identical parts of OFDM symbol. These schemes show poor performance due to the presence of plateau and significant side lobe. In this paper we present a timing synchronization schemes with timing metric based on a Constant Amplitude Zero Auto Correlation (CAZAC) sequence. The performance of the proposed timing synchronization scheme is better than the classical techniques.
Workload Aware Incremental Repartitioning of NoSQL for Online Transactional P...IJAAS Team
Numerous applications are deployed on the web with the increasing popularity of internet. The applications include, 1) Banking applications, 2) Gaming applications, 3) E-commerce web applications. Different applications reply on OLTP (Online Transaction Processing) systems. OLTP systems need to be scalable and require fast response. Today modern web applications generate huge amount of the data which one particular machine and Relational databases cannot handle. The E-Commerce applications are facing the challenge of improving the scalability of the system. Data partitioning technique is used to improve the scalability of the system. The data is distributed among the different machines which results in increasing number of transactions. The work-load aware incremental repartitioning approach is used to balance the load among the partitions and to reduce the number of transactions that are distributed in nature. Hyper Graph Representation technique is used to represent the entire transactional workload in graph form. In this technique, frequently used items are collected and Grouped by using Fuzzy C-means Clustering Algorithm. Tuple Classification and Migration Algorithm is used for mapping clusters to partitions and after that tuples are migrated efficiently.
A Fusion Based Visibility Enhancement of Single Underwater Hazy ImageIJAAS Team
Underwater images are prone to contrast loss, limited visibility, and undesirable color cast. For underwater computer vision and pattern recognition algorithms, these images need to be pre-processed. We have addressed a novel solution to this problem by proposing fully automated underwater image dehazing using multimodal DWT fusion. Inputs for the combinational image fusion scheme are derived from Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) and Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) for contrast enhancement in HSV color space and color constancy using Shades of Gray algorithm respectively. To appraise the work conducted, the visual and quantitative analysis is performed. The restored images demonstrate improved contrast and effective enhancement in overall image quality and visibility. The proposed algorithm performs on par with the recent underwater dehazing techniques.
Graph Based Workload Driven Partitioning System by Using MongoDBIJAAS Team
The web applications and websites of the enterprises are accessed by a huge number of users with the expectation of reliability and high availability. Social networking sites are generating the data exponentially large amount of data. It is a challenging task to store data efficiently. SQL and NoSQL are mostly used to store data. As RDBMS cannot handle the unstructured data and huge volume of data, so NoSQL is better choice for web applications. Graph database is one of the efficient ways to store data in NoSQL. Graph database allows us to store data in the form of relation. In Graph representation each tuple is represented by node and the relationship is represented by edge. But, to handle the exponentially growth of data into a single server might decrease the performance and increases the response time. Data partitioning is a good choice to maintain a moderate performance even the workload increases. There are many data partitioning techniques like Range, Hash and Round robin but they are not efficient for the small transactions that access a less number of tuples. NoSQL data stores provide scalability and availability by using various partitioning methods. To access the Scalability, Graph partitioning is an efficient way that can be easily represent and process that data. To balance the load data are partitioned horizontally and allocate data across the geographical available data stores. If the partitions are not formed properly result becomes expensive distributed transactions in terms of response time. So the partitioning of the tuple should be based on relation. In proposed system, Schism technique is used for partitioning the Graph. Schism is a workload aware graph partitioning technique. After partitioning the related tuples should come into a single partition. The individual node from the graph is mapped to the unique partition. The overall aim of Graph partitioning is to maintain nodes onto different distributed partition so that related data come onto the same cluster.

1. INTRODUCTION
Today the popularization of smart grid is increasing, which encourages the power line
communication (PLC) and also the integration of DG units into the smart grid. There are so many power
quality issues such as voltage dip, swells, slow voltage variations, long voltage variations etc [1]. Harmonics
is considered as one of the major issues. Harmonics are mathematically defined as the component having
a frequency which is an integer multiple of the fundamental frequency. In power quality, the 50 or 60 Hz
power frequency is considered as the fundamental frequency and the integer multiples of these frequency are
called harmonics. Now days a serious attention has been achieved for the emission of high frequency in the
range 2-150 kHz. [2, 3]. The PLC plays an important role in supraharmonic emission. Several high frequency
switching circuits devices that are capable of generating significant supraharmonics are growing continuously
with increasing energy efficiency. During normal operation, some of modern appliances can emit high
frequency including the compact fluorescent lamp, light emitting diodes, PV inverters, battery chargers, etc.
The diodes, thyristors are considered to be the dominating valves of power electronics in the past
days. With these semiconductors, due to the process for commutating the flow of current, harmonics of very
low order are generated. The generation of harmonics a multiple of the fundamental frequency in line
commutated rectifiers and converters is little imperious. The propagation of the emission has been transferred
to higher frequencies due to establishment of the transistors which is considered to be a self-commutated
valve. Sometimes there may be emission in the range of high frequencies because of the fast improvement of
energy saving equipments in our homes. Disturbances of supraharmonics are becoming an increasing concern
in the industry, especially with the growth of distributed and embedded generation. The large number of

distributed renewable energy sources with their fluctuating power can increase negative influence on
the electricity-supply
System. High-frequency emissions in future grids and the impact on connected consumers are
described in [4]. There will be no limits for the emission for frequency of 2 to 150 kHz, except for induction
hubs and for lamp above 9 kHz frequency. Emission for another equipment is circumscribed only for
harmonics that is up to 2 kHz and also above 150 kHz. Due to this high supraharmonic distortion will occur
and effects such as malfunction of household devices have been increasing day to day. A severe concern
from international standard Community can observed in information of voltage bias , current bias in high
frequency range ,it is known as “Supraharmonics”. Now days, a large number of researches are proceeding at
a large number of places, yet information related to supraharmonics remains confined.
This paper reviews the harmonic emission in 2-150 kHz range. Part Ⅱ reviews about the sources of
supraharmonics, disturbances in supraharmonic range, power line communications. The effect of
supraharmonics in various equipments such as photovoltaic inverter [PV inverter], Light emitting diode,
Compact fluorescent lamp, and Power electronic converter are discussed in part Ⅲ. The details about
the primary emission and secondary emission are explained in part Ⅲ. Measurement techniques, challenges
and mitigation measures are explained in part Ⅳ.
2. SUPRAHARMONICS AND IT’S SOURCES
The term “supraharmonics” (SH) is used to specify a bias that occurs in the current and the voltage
waveform in the frequency range of 2 to 150 kHz. “High Frequency” term is already used by
the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) to define the frequency range 3 to 30 MHz at the IEEE
PES 2013 general meeting; the name supraharmonics was first introduced. Increasing capacitive currents that
damage the power supply increase the neutral current and thus it increases the safety risk such as:
Causes dimmers in lamps and failures in touch control operators
Overheating of transformer and also capacitor banks
Failures in protection devices and communication problems
Decrease in the service life of LED lights and fluorescent lamps
2.1. Supraharmonics sources
When referred to supraharmonics, the SH disturbances are not caused by the distortion of
the fundamental frequency waveform. It is mainly due to switching of inverter output circuit. The inverter
circuits in distribution networks can also increase the level of supraharmonics.
The transfer from the power electronic converter that is tied to the grid to self commutated linked to
the propagation of supraharmonics. There is a continuous expansion of number of other devices having
switching circuits with high frequency. The objective is to improve the energy efficiency.
PLC transmitters and the power-electronic converters, either with active or with passive switching
are considered to be the two main causes of supraharmonics. The emission has shifted from harmonic to
the supraharmonics frequencies after the introduction of self-commutated valves. Instead of having an
increased emission at higher frequencies, designers need to design the product that satisfies emission limits at
the harmonic frequencies. Some examples of device that have high frequency emission are:
Oscillations over commutation notches [up to 10 kHz]
Industrial size converters [9 -150 kHz]
Electric vehicles chargers [15 kHz 100 kHz]
Photovoltaic inverters [4 kHz - 20 kHz]
Power line communication [9 - 95 kHz]
Household devices [2 - 150 kHz]
Street lights [up to 20 kHz]
2.2. Disturbances in supraharmonic range
There are some equipment with distortion of voltage when exposed to high frequency range. Several
measurements have been performed for these and it leads to subdivision of disturbances [5].
Broadband signals
Narrowband signals
Recurrent oscillations
The narrow band signals are emitted by the equipments occasionally for eg. The HF ballasts of
fluorescent lamps that emits remnants of switching-frequency components. “Broadband signals” can seen in
some power line communicating techniques (detailed explanation is given in upcoming section). “Recurrent
oscillations” mainly occurs from other sources and it remains back from commutation at the controlled

rectifiers for e.g. the variable speed drives. There are certain types of loads that can generate narrowband
signals, but they are normally emitted by PLC equipments. The power line communication uses this signal at
43 kHz and induction cooker at 40 kHz. Examples of narrowband and the broadband signals are shown in
Figure 1 and Figure 2.
Figure 1. Narrow band signal [time and frequency domain]
Figure 2. Broad band signal [Time and frequency domain]
As signal that contains damped oscillations, a recurring oscillation is characterized in [6]. Some
equipment can emit this kind components but the origin of these signals can be found in active PFC circuits.
Due to dc motor drives or May due to certain types of UPS, there is a similarity between the characteristics in
recurrent oscillations and commutation notches. Frequency domain for a synthesized signal showing
recurrent oscillations is shown in Figure 3.
Figure 3. A synthesized signal showing recurrent oscillations in Frequency domain
2.3. Power line communications
Due to formularization of electrical grid which includes a variety of operational and energy
measures that promotes the usage of the Power Line Communication technology [PLC], the supraharmonics
distortion become more relevant today [7].The use of this high frequency in PLC network is one of the good
logic for turning the consideration to this range. It usually between the ranges of 9 - 148.5 kHz frequency.
PLC is an emerging home network technology that connecting home devices each other and sometimes to
the internet by allowing the consumers to use their existing wiring system.

A review of high frequency emission in 2-150 kHz range (Tomina Thomas)
135
The frequency that used by the network operators for the PLC is between the ranges of 9–95 kHz
according to European standards [8]. The power line communication technology is broadly used in
applications such as Home networking and Internet Access, Automatic meter reading, Home Automation
Transmitting radio programs etc. It is used for electrical installation within the buildings [inside] and homes
and so called as in-home PLC. Attenuation which are frequency-dependent, changing the impedance, fading
and unfavourable noise conditions are some of the negative properties of the PLC transmission channel. PLC
need to be operated in a spectrum of frequency of up to 30 MHz in order to provide higher data rates.
The design of the power line is insufficient for the transmission of high frequency signal, there is some
adverse effect on high signal in PLC network and it was mainly design for transmission of energy. Power
lines are majorly designed to transfer electric power from a few generators to an enormous number of
consumers between the ranges of 50-60 Hz frequency.
3. EFFECT OF SUPRAHARMONICS IN EQUIPMENTS
3.1. Emissions from pv inverters
The current that is injected to the power grid by using the PV inverter is some extend distorted.
The high value of grid impedance will lead to a high level of distortion of voltage. From the terminals of PV
inverter, the consolidation of primary and secondary emission can be calculated [9].
Main contribution of this emission is primary emission that occurs due to part that is left after
a greater part has been used removed of the switching frequency of converter. Emissions of harmonics from
PV-plants is somewhat it may be constant with regards to the production and is acceptably low [9]. Residue
from the switching of the inverter is typically at a few kHz. The grid commutated single phase PV inverters
that are accessible in our current market are of self commutated. They employ Pulse Width Modulation
switching for producing the sinusoidal voltage waveform at the output. It releases HF emission into the grid
because the switching occurs at high frequency. There are different topologies that are used in small,
the grid-tied PV inverters such as:
PV inverters having low frequency transformers
PV inverters having high frequency transformers
PV inverters that is Transformer-less
In order to study the HF emissions from Photo voltaic inverters of these topologies, so many
experiments were carried out. The measurements that carried out at the University of Wollongong, Australia,
and at the Technische Universitaet Dresden, Germany were described in [10]. Here at the output of
the inverters, a sinusoidal reference voltage which is of 230V/50Hz having low distortion levels was
maintained. In accordance with the line to-neutral loop impedance for low voltage installations rated [less
than 75A], the impedance between the programmable generator and the PV inverter is (0.4 + j0.25) Ω at
50Hz. There will be an unrealistic high value at higher frequencies due to the reactive part would change for
different switching frequencies. The HF emissions from PV inverters takes place in frequency bands and
each of them contain additional side bands. The first emission band was considered because it provides 90%
more than that of the total HF emission for a single-phase inverter [11].
The final inverter stage will largely control the HF emissions from a PV inverter. The HF emissions
which arise due to this stage depend heavily on the input DC voltage. In order to find the amount of High
frequency emissions that given into the grid, we have to consider the damping provided by any components
of the PV system or by the output filters. HF emissions from the three phase and single-phase inverters are
different. The HF emissions will be lower in inverters of lower frequency, medium for inverters of high
frequency and will be higher for transformer-less inverters [10].

3.2. Emission from compact fluorescent lamp
Over last decades there has been a change in the types of devices connected at the low voltage
network. Strive to reduce the use of electrical power has led to more energy efficient appliances. The obvious
example is the change from incandescent lamps to compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs). For CFL lamp,
the supraharmonic impedance that varies on timescale shorter than 20 Ms. Also most fluorescent lamps
above 25-Watt of power are equipped with so-called “active power factor correction” which strongly limits
their emission of low-order odd harmonics.
The combination of secondary and primary emission is measured on the terminal of an appliance in
supraharmonic emission. For studying the interactions between different devices that connected inside
the same installation, a number of experiments have been conducted. A comparison has been made between
emissions that propagating inside the installation and emission from the installation as a whole. The spectra
of current calculated at three CFLs are shown in Figure (b, c, d) together with measurement of the combined
current by all three lamps shown in Figure (a) [12]. The switching frequency of the lamp is assumed to be
lied in the range of 40 and 50 kHz frequency. At the point of delivery, the amplitude in ampere of
the supraharmonics between 40 and 50 kHz drops and the amplitude of the supraharmonic current calculated
at each individual lamp increases by the addition of a greater number of lamps. When compared
to propagation of harmonic currents, the propagation of supraharmonic current is found to be
significantly different.
During an experiment involving 48 fluorescent lamps that is equipped with high frequency
ballast [13], the result was found to be same as shown in Figure 5. It shows that by the addition of more
lamps at the point of common coupling, there is a decrease in amplitude of the residues from the switching
circuit between 50 kHz and 90 kHz. Around the zero crossing of the voltage, oscillation of few kHz also
produced by current drawn by lamps. There is an increase in amplitude of frequency component as more
lamps were added.

3.3. Emission from led
LED lamps show a large diversity of topology such as:
Type Ⅰ lamps: higher level of emission [frequency up to 2 kHz]
Type Ⅱ lamps: Mainly a fundamental capacitive current [at 50 Hz frequency]
Type III lamps: medium level of emission [up to 2 kHz frequency]
Type IV lamps: higher level of emission [above 2 kHz frequency]
Type II to IV as defined in [14] will have the biggest impact in the supraharmonic range.
The residue from the switching in LED lamp type I will also appear in the supraharmonic spectra but with
amplitude below that is associated with types III and IV. Supraharmonic spectra for type II to IV are shown

in Figure 6, Figure 7, and Figure 8. The different types are not only sources of primary emission; depending
on the type they also differently affect the impedance level at supraharmonic frequencies. For type II lamps,
due to the capacitor combination to the grid, secondary emission can dominate the spectrum. There will be an
impact on grid such as reduction in the peak current, reduction in the losses and also a smaller increase in
the harmonic distortion due to the reinstatement of incandescent lamp by LED’s and CFL’s.

The levels of supraharmonic components of type II are lower than those measured for type III and
IV. Due to the capacitive character of the lamp the measured levels of emission are believed to consist
mainly of secondary type of emission. The component just over 120 kHz originates from the measuring
system. The strongest supraharmonic emission component is visible slightly above 120 kHz. In the
spectrogram, the component visible as a narrowband component with variable frequency supraharmonics 49
and slightly above 120 kHz displayed as a broadband component in frequency domain representation of type
Ⅲ lamps. For type IV the supraharmonic emission covers basically the entire frequency above 40 kHz.
3.4. Emission from power electronic converter
Power electronics is a highly developed technical knowledge that plays a key important role in most
of the areas. It is an important cause of waveform distortion and also it can act as a key factor to mitigate
distortion [15]. The origin of high frequency emission is a part or quantity that is left after a greater part has
been used removed from switching frequency of converters. For high power equipment, these frequencies
can be lower as 1 kHz but majority of devices has 2 to 150 kHz switching frequency. There will be common
40 and 50 kHz switching frequencies and it is because of the lower frequencies interfering with infrared
remote controls and high frequencies causes harmonic that ending up above 150 kHz.
In order to increase the capability of handling the voltage and current, to increase the speed of
switching of power devices, power electronics were used. There is a necessity that the connection of low
voltage switching devices must be series to synthesize output of medium voltage and the inclusion of this
lower voltage cell can reduce cost, reduce volume and high scalability. This leads to the development of
multilevel converter technology and MCs can be used in applications such as induction machine, FACTS,
motor drives, HVDC etc. There are various topologies for MC such as Cascade H Bridge, Neutral point
clamped, the flying capacitor.
The modulation methods are classified according to switching frequencies in [16]. It is found that
the emission from multilevel converter in the high frequency range is remarkably lower than that for two-
level converter. Detailed experiment results in [17].
3.5. Primary and secondary emission
It is very important to differentiate between primary emission and secondary emission within
supraharmonic range. The Primary emission is the element of current that is consumed by the internal
emission of the device itself. The Secondary emission is the element of current that is consumed by the
internal emission from another device. Primary and secondary emission as shown in Figure 9. Detailed
explanation on [18].
Figure 9. Primary and secondary emission
The primary emission is not dependent on time and location and is not similar to the emission that is
calculated on a standard test. Controlled experiments can be done for distinguishing primary and secondary
emissions. In these experiments, each separate device is calculated with a familiar source to develop
the spectrum of emission. The data obtained from these experiments can be used in situation of mixed load.
In [19]; several cases are discussed for primary and secondary emissions.
4. MEASUREMENT TECHNIQUES, CHALLENGES AND MITIGATION MEASURES
4.1. Measurement challenges
Generally, there are three analysis techniques such as time domain analysis, frequency domain
analysis and time-frequency domain analysis [20]. Variation in magnitude levels can be easily identified
using the time domain analysis technique. In order to identify the components of frequency in the signal,

frequency domain is ideally used. Representation of time frequency is a balance achieved in the middle of
two desirable but incompatible features such as time domain and frequency domain representation. For time
and frequency analyses techniques, there is a group of strongly acknowledged indices. For visual evaluation,
time frequency techniques are more preferably used.
Due to the presence of harmonic frequencies [up to 9 kHz] in a non sinusoidal signal, it makes some
difficulties to differentiate between them and “accurate” emission in signal between 2 kHz and
9 kHz frequency.
4.2. Time domain analysis
The Filtered and unfiltered current feeding a fluorescent lamp that is provided with higher frequency
ballast is shown in Figure 4.
From unfiltered current, it can find that except for some notches, the waveform is rather sinusoidal.
The filtered current is produced by the application of a Butterworth filter.
It shows recurrent oscillations at the end of the notches. The same oscillations can be seen in voltage
waveform [21]. It is said to be “commutated oscillations”. These oscillations that occur during
the commutation of a line-commutated is due to the sudden voltage sag by two phases short-circuit. Due to
voltage sag, the system for feeding will started to fluctuates in its natural frequency and these frequencies in
LV system are usually in the period of several kHz up to more than 10 kHz.
The source of notches and oscillations makes the active PFC converter inadequate to control
the current approximated to its zero crossing and this disturbance is said to be “zero crossing
distortion” [22, 23]. Due to the presence of electromagnetic-interference EMI filter between the terminals of
devices, the distortion will not occur within the zero-crossing current completely. Both filtered and non-
filtered shows high frequency non-damped oscillations between zero -crossing oscillations. Unfiltered and
filtered current as shown in Figure 10. With the fundamental waveform, the production of the fluctuations is
synchronized and due to multiple lamps, there will be an adding effect. The amplitude of oscillations
increases with increase in lamps but the amplitude of High frequency signals that observable between
notches cannot be increased

4.3. Time frequency domain analysis
Precise than time domain and frequency domain, a time-frequency domain is commonly used. Time
Frequency Analysis is a signal processing tool which is widely used in field applications for extracting
valuable information from non-stationary signals. Time-frequency indicate the change in spectral aspect
[characteristics] of the signal which is the function of time. Non-stationary signals are signals where
components of frequencies are absent all the times in the given signal. To analyze these signals such as
a voltage or current, we need to use a multi-resolution technique which provides the TFR. These techniques
decompose any non-stationary signal in terms of a joint time-frequency domain representation.
In order to calculate the data from domestic appliances and also from Central PV inverter, Short
time Fourier transform [STFT] can be applied. The results from STFT are shown in a spectrogram and
the Spectrograms used for signal processing owing to show the high frequency emissions. STFT has some
disadvantages about magnitude and frequency bands representation [24].

4.4. Mitigation measures
Fuzzy logic controllers are one of the methods that are used to mitigate the high frequency
emissions [25]. From a current signal, by using Uniform Random Noise method, supraharmonics can be
reduced. But it has several disadvantages and it cannot reduce the harmonics completely. To overcome this
limitation, Fuzzy Controllers are introduced. This method is simple when compared to other former
methods. Fuzzy logic works on the basis of five rules:
The first output will be negative, if the first input is lower and the second input is medium
The first output will be negative, if the first input is lower and the second input is higher
The first output will be positive, if the first input is medium and the second input is lower
The first output will be positive, if the first input is higher and the second input is lower
The first output will be zero, if the first input is lower and the second input is also lower
The data given by the operator is more important than the dynamic mathematical model of
the system, while designing a fuzzy logic controller. For a control system, the output or error signal
produced in its physical environment is considered to be a major problem. But this has an important role in
the closed loop systems processes. The fuzzy logic controls are used to minimize the system fault or error to
a minimum value.
For reducing the emission below 2 kHz, the conventional PWM techniques are used. The same
result holds for another technique like the hysteresis control. Its leads to emission at Pulse width modulation
switching frequencies and in Radio Frequency range. There are random switching PWM techniques such as
carrier frequency modulation fixed duty, random carrier frequency modulation variable duty, random PWM,
and random pulse position modulation.
RPPM is same as that of classical PWM. Instead of starting at the beginning of each cycle,
the pulse position is sequentially within each period of switching. Thus, RPWM allows the change in width
of the pulse but the required duty cycle is same as that the average pulse width. Today the most
commercially available random approach is RCFMFD. This is commonly known as “spread spectrum
technique” [15].
5. CONCLUSION
This paper reviewed about the high frequency emission in 2-150 kHz range. Disturbances due to
high frequency emission are becoming an increasing concern in the industry, especially with the growth of
distribute and embedded generation.
Supraharmonics, SH disturbances are not caused by the distortion of the fundamental frequency
waveform. There are many sources for supraharmonics such as power converter, LED, CFL etc.
The relevance of supraharmonics distortions is increased mainly due to vulgarization of the smart electric
grids that persuade the use of Power Line Communication techniques.
The primary emissions are defined as the part of the current waveform that are driven from
the internal emission from the device itself. Secondary emissions are defined as the part of current waveform
which is driven from the internal emission of other devices. The major three types of analysis includes:
the time domain, the frequency domain and the time- frequency domain. The time domain promotes, easy
identification of the magnitude levels and also its variation. Frequency domain is ideally used to determine
the components of frequency in the signal. Precise than time, frequency domain, a time frequency domain is
commonly used.
Fuzzy logic controllers are one of the methods that are used to mitigate the supraharmonic emission.
This method is simple when compared to other former methods.”Spread spectrum technique” is also used to
reduce the high frequency emission. Power electronics can be considered as an important source of waveform
distortion and it can act as a key to mitigate distortion
