This paper deals with non-integer internal model control (FIMC) based proportional- integral-derivative(PID) design for load frequency control (LFC) of single area nonreheated thermal power system under parameter divergence and random load disturbance. Firstly, a fractional second order plus dead time(SOPDT) reduced system model is obtained using genetic algorithm through step error minimization. Secondly, a FIMC based PID controller is designed for single area power system based on reduced system model. Proposed controller is equipped with single area non-reheated thermal power system. The resulting controller is tested using MATLAB/SIMULINK under various conditions. The simulation results show that the controller can accommodate system parameter uncertainty and load disturbance. Further, simulation shows that it maintains robust performance as well as minimizes the effect of load fluctuations on frequency deviation. Finally, the proposed method applied to two area power system to show the effectiveness.
Minimize the load reduction considering the activities control of the generat...IJECEIAES
This study shows how to calculate the minimum load that needs to be reduced to restore the frequency to the specified threshold. To implement this problem, the actual operation of the electricity system in the event of a generator outage is considered. The main idea of this method is to use the power balance equation between the generation and the load with different frequency levels. In all cases of operating the electrical system before and after the generator outage, the reserve capacity of other generators is considered in each generator outage situation. The reduced load capacity is calculated based on the reciprocal phase angle sensitivity or phase distance. This makes the voltage phase angle and voltage value quality of recovery nodes better. The standard IEEE 9-generator 37-bus test scheme was simulated to show the result of the proposed technique.

In this paper, the power quality compensation problems such as current harmonics and system load's reactive power are considered. In this context, we use static distribution synchronous compensator to inject compensation current into the system, which its reference current signals have been derived from the instantaneous power theory. To improve the current control operation and fast tracking of reference signals, a PI recursive controller has been used which is able to reduce to zero tracking error compared to its conventional type. The performance of the controller is delayed for a period; to overcome this problem, the phase rules have been used to adjust the controller parameters to increase the control performance speed. Finally, in simulation we used Matlab / Simulink software, which has been proven to be better than conventional PI controller-based compensation for power quality.

This paper presents the need to operate the power
system economically and with optimum levels of voltages has
further led to an increase in interest in Distributed
Generation. In order to reduce the power losses and to improve
the voltage in the distribution system, distributed generators
(DGs) are connected to load bus. To reduce the total power
losses in the system, the most important process is to identify
the proper location for fixing and sizing of DGs. It presents a
new methodology using a new population based meta heuristic
approach namely Artificial Bee Colony algorithm(ABC) for
the placement of Distributed Generators(DG) in the radial
distribution systems to reduce the real power losses and to
improve the voltage profile, voltage sag mitigation. The power
loss reduction is important factor for utility companies because
it is directly proportional to the company benefits in a
competitive electricity market, while reaching the better power
quality standards is too important as it has vital effect on
customer orientation. In this paper an ABC algorithm is
developed to gain these goals all together. In order to evaluate
sag mitigation capability of the proposed algorithm, voltage

Line Losses in the 14-Bus Power System Network using UPFCIDES Editor
Controlling power flow in modern power systems
can be made more flexible by the use of recent developments
in power electronic and computing control technology. The
Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) is a Flexible AC
transmission system (FACTS) device that can control all the
three system variables namely line reactance, magnitude and
phase angle difference of voltage across the line. The UPFC
provides a promising means to control power flow in modern
power systems. Essentially the performance depends on proper
control setting achievable through a power flow analysis
program. This paper presents a reliable method to meet the
requirements by developing a Newton-Raphson based load
flow calculation through which control settings of UPFC can
be determined for the pre-specified power flow between the
lines. The proposed method keeps Newton-Raphson Load Flow
(NRLF) algorithm intact and needs (little modification in the
Jacobian matrix). A MATLAB program has been developed to
calculate the control settings of UPFC and the power flow
between the lines after the load flow is converged. Case studies
have been performed on IEEE 5-bus system and 14-bus system
to show that the proposed method is effective. These studies
indicate that the method maintains the basic NRLF properties
such as fast computational speed, high degree of accuracy and
good convergence rate.
ANN Based PID Controlled Brushless DC drive SystemIDES Editor
Brushless (BLDC) DC motors find many industrial
applications such as process control, robotics, automation,
aerospace etc. Wider usage of this system has demanded an
optimum position control for high efficiency, accuracy and
reliability. Hence for the effective position control, estimation
of dynamic load parameters i.e. moment of inertia and friction
coefficient is necessary. This paper incorporates the estimation
of mechanical parameters such as moment of inertia and
friction coefficient of BLDC motor and load at various load
settings by using simple procedure. To achieve the optimum
position control, PID controller is employed and tuned using
PARR method. ANN training is used for obtaining the
mechanical and PID controller parameters at different load
settings. Closed loop position control system of the BLDC
drive system is created using SIMULINK. Simulation results
of this system are obtained at different load settings. It is
evident from the results that the position control system
responds to the desired position with minimum rise time,
settling time and peak overshoot.
Model based PI power system stabilizer design for damping low frequency oscil...ISA Interchange
This paper explores a two-level control strategy by blending a local controller with a centralized controller for the low frequency oscillations in a power system. The proposed control scheme provides stabilization of local modes using a local controller and minimizes the effect of inter-connection of sub-systems performance through a centralized control. For designing the local controllers in the form of proportional-integral power system stabilizer (PI-PSS), a simple and straight forward frequency domain direct synthesis method is considered that works on use of a suitable reference model which is based on the desired requirements. Several examples both on one machine infinite bus and multi-machine systems taken from the literature are illustrated to show the efficacy of the proposed PI-PSS. The effective damping of the systems is found to be increased remarkably which is reflected in the time-responses; even unstable operation has been stabilized with improved damping after applying the proposed controller. The proposed controllers give remarkable improvement in damping the oscillations in all the illustrations considered here and as for example, the value of damping factor has been increased from 0.0217 to 0.666 in Example 1. The simulation results obtained by the proposed control strategy are favorably compared with some controllers prevalent in the literature.

Design and implementation of control systems for power supplies require the use of efficient techniques that
provide simple and practical solutions in order to fulfill the performance requirements at an acceptable cost.
Application of manual methods of system identification in determining optimal values of controller settings is
quite time-consuming, expensive and, sometimes, may be impossible to practically carry out. This paper
describes an analytical method for the design of a control system for a fast transient response, low dropout

obtained from analytical model of the regulator circuit. Test results showed good dynamic characteristics
with adequate margin of stability. This study shows that PID parameter values sufficiently close to optimum
can easily be obtained from analytical study of the regulator system. The applied method of determining
controller settings greatly reduces design time and cost.

This paper presents a design of MPPT techniques for PV module to increase its efficiency. Perturb and Observe method (P&O), incremental conductance method (IC), and Fuzzy logic controller (FLC) techniques are designed to be used for MPPT. Also FLC is built using MATLAB/ SIMULINK and compared with the FLC toolbox existed in the MATLAB library. FLC does not need knowledge of the exact model of the system so it is easy to implement.

Finally, the proposed FLC is built in very high speed integrated circuit description language (VHDL). The simulation results obtained with ISE Design Suite 14.6 software show a satisfactory performance with a good agreement compared to obtained values from MATLAB/SIMULINK. The good tracking efficiency and rapid response to environmental parameters changes are adopted by the simulation results.

Neural Network based p-q-r Theory for Harmonic Reduction and Neutral Current ...IJECEIAES
The power quality compensator chosen in this paper is a DSTATCOM which integrates a three phase four leg Voltage Source Converter (VSC) with a DC capacitor. The major role of the DSTATCOM is to mitigate the components of harmonic/reactive current present in the line current thereby shapes the grid current to be sinusoidal and improves the power factor nearly unity under varying conditions. In addition DSATATCOM mitigates neutral current (I ) and balances the load currents under unbalanced conditions in three phase four wire (3P4W) distribution system. The control strategy proposed for the DSTATCOM is a Neural Network (NN) based p-q-r theory with two Artificial Neural Network (ANN) controllers for a 3P4W distribution system. The reference signal for 3P3W Shunt Active Power Filter (SAPF) is calculated by implementing an ANN controller. The alleviation of I sn under unbalanced condition is achieved by another ANN controller which produces reference signal for the 1Φ APF. The performance of the proposed DSTATCOM is analysed for various conditions through simulations in MATLAB SIMULINK and the simulation results justify the effectiveness of the propounded NN based control algorithm for DSTATCOM. sn

Automatic Generation Control of Multi-Area Power System with Generating Rate ...IJAPEJOURNAL
In a large inter-connected system, large and small generating stations are synchronously connected and hence all stations must have the same frequency. The system frequency deviation is the sensitive indicator of real power imbalance. The main objectives of AGC are to maintain constant frequency and tie-line errors with in prescribed limit. This paper presents two new approaches for Automatic Generation Control using i) combined Fuzzy Logic and Artificial Neural Network Controller (FLANNC) and ii) Hybrid Neuro Fuzzy Controller (HNFC) with gauss membership functions. The simulation model is created for four-area interconnected power system. In this four area system, three areas consist of steam turbines and one area consists of hydro turbine. The components of ACE, frequency deviation (F) and tie line error (Ptie) are obtained through simulation model and used to produce the required control action to achieve AGC using i) FLANNC and ii) HNFC with gauss membership functions. The simulation results show that the proposed controllers overcome the drawbacks associated with conventional integral controller, Fuzzy Logic Controller (FLC), Artificial Neural Network controller (ANNC) and HNFC with gbell membership functionsv
OPTIMAL TORQUE RIPPLE CONTROL OF ASYNCHRONOUS DRIVE USING INTELLIGENT CONTROL...elelijjournal
The dynamic performance of an asynchronous machine when operated with cascaded Voltage Source Inverter using Space Vector Modulation (SVM) technique is presented in this paper. A classical model of Induction Motor Drive based on Direct Torque Control (DTC) method is considered which displays
appreciable run-time operation with very simple hysteresis control scheme. Direct control of the torque and flux variables is achieved by choosing suitable inverter voltage space vector from a lookup table. Under varying torque conditions the performance of the drive system is verified using MATLAB/Simulink software tool. The ripple content in the torque parameter is significant when traditional PI controller and Fuzzy approach are configured in the proposed system. Finally, by replacing the PI-Fuzzy controller with Hybrid Controller the torque ripple minimization can be achieved during no-load and loaded conditions.
QFT Based Controller Design of Thyristor-Controlled Phase Shifter for Power S...IJRESJOURNAL
ABSTRACT: This paper presents the automatic design method for a thyristor-controlled phase shifter (TCPS) controller based on quantitative feedback theory (QFT) to improve power system stability in spite of system uncertainties and various disturbances. A genetic algorithm (GA) in a loop shaping state of QFT design has been used to design the TCPS controller satisfying all QFT bounds without repetition of a manual try and error. The proposed performance index in GA has been composed of the QFT bounds and the damping ratio. To verify control performance of the proposed TCPS controller based on QFT using GA, the closed loop eigenvalue and the damping of power system have been analyzed and nonlinear simulations for a single machine infinite bus system have been performed under various disturbances for various operating conditions. The control characteristics of the proposed TCPS controller have been compared with that of the conventional power system stabilizer (PSS) and conventional TCPC controller. The simulation results show that the proposed TCPS controller provided better dynamic responses in comparison with the conventional PSS and TCPS controller.
Correlative Study on the Modeling and Control of Boost Converter using Advanc...IJSRD
DC-DC converters are switched power converters. The converters are most widely used in research and industrial applications. The DC-DC Boost Converters are used to step-up the supply voltage given to the plant model. The main advantage of using the Boost Converters is that it works in the low voltage according to the design specifications. In order to regulate the uncontrolled supply of voltage, a controller has to be designed and modeled to stabilize the output voltage. Since the convectional controllers cannot work under dynamic operating conditions, advanced controllers are to be designed to overcome the problems. In this article, the advanced controllers such as NARMA-L2, Fuzzy Logic (FLC) and Sliding Mode Controllers (SMC) are implemented and their responses are compared using MATLAB.
PID controller using rapid control prototyping techniquesIJECEIAES
To analyze the performance of the PID controller in a buck type converter implemented in real time. We begin by designing a continuous controller using the analytical method for calculating PIDs. Pulse width modulation is then used and bifurcation diagrams analyzed to reveal some problems of switching and sampling time. The model converter is then implemented with a PID controller in dSPACE. The experimental results provide detailed requirements of sampling frequency and switching speed, and show the performance of the PID controller. Converters are used in power generation solar systems and conmuted power sources for feed telecommunication devices, smart grids, and other applications.

Fossil fuel consumption increased quickly, contributing to climate change
that is evident in unusual flooding and draughts, and global warming. Over
the past ten years, women's involvement in society has grown dramatically,
and they succeeded in playing a noticeable role in reducing climate change.
A bibliometric analysis of data from the last ten years has been carried out to
examine the role of women in addressing the climate change. The analysis's
findings discussed the relevant to the sustainable development goals (SDGs),
particularly SDG 7 and SDG 13. The results considered contributions made
by women in the various sectors while taking geographic dispersion into
account. The bibliometric analysis delves into topics including women's
leadership in environmental groups, their involvement in policymaking, their
contributions to sustainable development projects, and the influence of
gender diversity on attempts to mitigate climate change. This study's results
highlight how women have influenced policies and actions related to climate
change, point out areas of research deficiency and recommendations on how
to increase role of the women in addressing the climate change and
achieving sustainability. To achieve more successful results, this initiative
aims to highlight the significance of gender equality and encourage
inclusivity in climate change decision-making processes.
Voltage and frequency control of microgrid in presence of micro-turbine inter...IJECEIAES
The active and reactive load changes have a significant impact on voltage
and frequency. In this paper, in order to stabilize the microgrid (MG) against
load variations in islanding mode, the active and reactive power of all
distributed generators (DGs), including energy storage (battery), diesel
generator, and micro-turbine, are controlled. The micro-turbine generator is
connected to MG through a three-phase to three-phase matrix converter, and
the droop control method is applied for controlling the voltage and
frequency of MG. In addition, a method is introduced for voltage and
frequency control of micro-turbines in the transition state from gridconnected mode to islanding mode. A novel switching strategy of the matrix
converter is used for converting the high-frequency output voltage of the
micro-turbine to the grid-side frequency of the utility system. Moreover,
using the switching strategy, the low-order harmonics in the output current
and voltage are not produced, and consequently, the size of the output filter
would be reduced. In fact, the suggested control strategy is load-independent
and has no frequency conversion restrictions. The proposed approach for
voltage and frequency regulation demonstrates exceptional performance and
favorable response across various load alteration scenarios. The suggested
strategy is examined in several scenarios in the MG test systems, and the
simulation results are addressed.

Precisely characterizing Li-ion batteries is essential for optimizing their
performance, enhancing safety, and prolonging their lifespan across various
applications, such as electric vehicles and renewable energy systems. This
article introduces an innovative nonlinear methodology for system
identification of a Li-ion battery, employing a nonlinear autoregressive with
exogenous inputs (NARX) model. The proposed approach integrates the
benefits of nonlinear modeling with the adaptability of the NARX structure,
facilitating a more comprehensive representation of the intricate
electrochemical processes within the battery. Experimental data collected
from a Li-ion battery operating under diverse scenarios are employed to
validate the effectiveness of the proposed methodology. The identified
NARX model exhibits superior accuracy in predicting the battery's behavior
compared to traditional linear models. This study underscores the
importance of accounting for nonlinearities in battery modeling, providing
insights into the intricate relationships between state-of-charge, voltage, and
current under dynamic conditions.
Smart grid deployment: from a bibliometric analysis to a surveyIJECEIAES
Smart grids are one of the last decades' innovations in electrical energy.
They bring relevant advantages compared to the traditional grid and
significant interest from the research community. Assessing the field's
evolution is essential to propose guidelines for facing new and future smart
grid challenges. In addition, knowing the main technologies involved in the
deployment of smart grids (SGs) is important to highlight possible
shortcomings that can be mitigated by developing new tools. This paper
contributes to the research trends mentioned above by focusing on two
objectives. First, a bibliometric analysis is presented to give an overview of
the current research level about smart grid deployment. Second, a survey of
the main technological approaches used for smart grid implementation and
their contributions are highlighted. To that effect, we searched the Web of
Science (WoS), and the Scopus databases. We obtained 5,663 documents
from WoS and 7,215 from Scopus on smart grid implementation or
deployment. With the extraction limitation in the Scopus database, 5,872 of
the 7,215 documents were extracted using a multi-step process. These two
datasets have been analyzed using a bibliometric tool called bibliometrix.
The main outputs are presented with some recommendations for future
research.
Use of analytical hierarchy process for selecting and prioritizing islanding ...IJECEIAES
One of the problems that are associated to power systems is islanding
condition, which must be rapidly and properly detected to prevent any
negative consequences on the system's protection, stability, and security.
This paper offers a thorough overview of several islanding detection
strategies, which are divided into two categories: classic approaches,
including local and remote approaches, and modern techniques, including
techniques based on signal processing and computational intelligence.
Additionally, each approach is compared and assessed based on several
factors, including implementation costs, non-detected zones, declining
power quality, and response times using the analytical hierarchy process
(AHP). The multi-criteria decision-making analysis shows that the overall
weight of passive methods (24.7%), active methods (7.8%), hybrid methods
(5.6%), remote methods (14.5%), signal processing-based methods (26.6%),
and computational intelligent-based methods (20.8%) based on the
comparison of all criteria together. Thus, it can be seen from the total weight
that hybrid approaches are the least suitable to be chosen, while signal
processing-based methods are the most appropriate islanding detection
method to be selected and implemented in power system with respect to the
aforementioned factors. Using Expert Choice software, the proposed
hierarchy model is studied and examined.
Enhancing of single-stage grid-connected photovoltaic system using fuzzy logi...IJECEIAES
The power generated by photovoltaic (PV) systems is influenced by
environmental factors. This variability hampers the control and utilization of
solar cells' peak output. In this study, a single-stage grid-connected PV
system is designed to enhance power quality. Our approach employs fuzzy
logic in the direct power control (DPC) of a three-phase voltage source
inverter (VSI), enabling seamless integration of the PV connected to the
grid. Additionally, a fuzzy logic-based maximum power point tracking
(MPPT) controller is adopted, which outperforms traditional methods like
incremental conductance (INC) in enhancing solar cell efficiency and
minimizing the response time. Moreover, the inverter's real-time active and
reactive power is directly managed to achieve a unity power factor (UPF).
The system's performance is assessed through MATLAB/Simulink
implementation, showing marked improvement over conventional methods,
particularly in steady-state and varying weather conditions. For solar
irradiances of 500 and 1,000 W/m2
, the results show that the proposed
method reduces the total harmonic distortion (THD) of the injected current
to the grid by approximately 46% and 38% compared to conventional
methods, respectively. Furthermore, we compare the simulation results with
IEEE standards to evaluate the system's grid compatibility.
Enhancing photovoltaic system maximum power point tracking with fuzzy logic-b...IJECEIAES
Photovoltaic systems have emerged as a promising energy resource that
caters to the future needs of society, owing to their renewable, inexhaustible,
and cost-free nature. The power output of these systems relies on solar cell
radiation and temperature. In order to mitigate the dependence on
atmospheric conditions and enhance power tracking, a conventional
approach has been improved by integrating various methods. To optimize
the generation of electricity from solar systems, the maximum power point
tracking (MPPT) technique is employed. To overcome limitations such as
steady-state voltage oscillations and improve transient response, two
traditional MPPT methods, namely fuzzy logic controller (FLC) and perturb
and observe (P&O), have been modified. This research paper aims to
simulate and validate the step size of the proposed modified P&O and FLC
techniques within the MPPT algorithm using MATLAB/Simulink for
efficient power tracking in photovoltaic systems.
Adaptive synchronous sliding control for a robot manipulator based on neural ...IJECEIAES
Robot manipulators have become important equipment in production lines, medical fields, and transportation. Improving the quality of trajectory tracking for
robot hands is always an attractive topic in the research community. This is a
challenging problem because robot manipulators are complex nonlinear systems
and are often subject to fluctuations in loads and external disturbances. This
article proposes an adaptive synchronous sliding control scheme to improve trajectory tracking performance for a robot manipulator. The proposed controller
ensures that the positions of the joints track the desired trajectory, synchronize
the errors, and significantly reduces chattering. First, the synchronous tracking
errors and synchronous sliding surfaces are presented. Second, the synchronous
tracking error dynamics are determined. Third, a robust adaptive control law is
designed,the unknown components of the model are estimated online by the neural network, and the parameters of the switching elements are selected by fuzzy
logic. The built algorithm ensures that the tracking and approximation errors
are ultimately uniformly bounded (UUB). Finally, the effectiveness of the constructed algorithm is demonstrated through simulation and experimental results.
Simulation and experimental results show that the proposed controller is effective with small synchronous tracking errors, and the chattering phenomenon is
significantly reduced.

A remote laboratory utilizing field-programmable gate array (FPGA) technologies enhances students’ learning experience anywhere and anytime in embedded system design. Existing remote laboratories prioritize hardware access and visual feedback for observing board behavior after programming, neglecting comprehensive debugging tools to resolve errors that require internal signal acquisition. This paper proposes a novel remote embeddedsystem design approach targeting FPGA technologies that are fully interactive via a web-based platform. Our solution provides FPGA board access and debugging capabilities beyond the visual feedback provided by existing remote laboratories. We implemented a lab module that allows users to seamlessly incorporate into their FPGA design. The module minimizes hardware resource utilization while enabling the acquisition of a large number of data samples from the signal during the experiments by adaptively compressing the signal prior to data transmission. The results demonstrate an average compression ratio of 2.90 across three benchmark signals, indicating efficient signal acquisition and effective debugging and analysis. This method allows users to acquire more data samples than conventional methods. The proposed lab allows students to remotely test and debug their designs, bridging the gap between theory and practice in embedded system design.

Efficiently identifying and resolving code smells enhances software project quality. This paper presents a novel solution, utilizing automated machine learning (AutoML) techniques, to detect code smells and apply move method refactoring. By evaluating code metrics before and after refactoring, we assessed its impact on coupling, complexity, and cohesion. Key contributions of this research include a unique dataset for code smell classification and the development of models using AutoGluon for optimal performance. Furthermore, the study identifies the top 20 influential features in classifying feature envy, a well-known code smell, stemming from excessive reliance on external classes. We also explored how move method refactoring addresses feature envy, revealing reduced coupling and complexity, and improved cohesion, ultimately enhancing code quality. In summary, this research offers an empirical, data-driven approach, integrating AutoML and move method refactoring to optimize software project quality. Insights gained shed light on the benefits of refactoring on code quality and the significance of specific features in detecting feature envy. Future research can expand to explore additional refactoring techniques and a broader range of code metrics, advancing software engineering practices and standards.

Rapidly and remotely monitoring and receiving the solar cell systems status parameters, solar irradiance, temperature, and humidity, are critical issues in enhancement their efficiency. Hence, in the present article an improved smart prototype of internet of things (IoT) technique based on embedded system through NodeMCU ESP8266 (ESP-12E) was carried out experimentally. Three different regions at Egypt; Luxor, Cairo, and El-Beheira cities were chosen to study their solar irradiance profile, temperature, and humidity by the proposed IoT system. The monitoring data of solar irradiance, temperature, and humidity were live visualized directly by Ubidots through hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) protocol. The measured solar power radiation in Luxor, Cairo, and El-Beheira ranged between 216-1000, 245-958, and 187-692 W/m 2 respectively during the solar day. The accuracy and rapidity of obtaining monitoring results using the proposed IoT system made it a strong candidate for application in monitoring solar cell systems. On the other hand, the obtained solar power radiation results of the three considered regions strongly candidate Luxor and Cairo as suitable places to build up a solar cells system station rather than El-Beheira.
An efficient security framework for intrusion detection and prevention in int...IJECEIAES
Over the past few years, the internet of things (IoT) has advanced to connect billions of smart devices to improve quality of life. However, anomalies or malicious intrusions pose several security loopholes, leading to performance degradation and threat to data security in IoT operations. Thereby, IoT security systems must keep an eye on and restrict unwanted events from occurring in the IoT network. Recently, various technical solutions based on machine learning (ML) models have been derived towards identifying and restricting unwanted events in IoT. However, most ML-based approaches are prone to miss-classification due to inappropriate feature selection. Additionally, most ML approaches applied to intrusion detection and prevention consider supervised learning, which requires a large amount of labeled data to be trained. Consequently, such complex datasets are impossible to source in a large network like IoT. To address this problem, this proposed study introduces an efficient learning mechanism to strengthen the IoT security aspects. The proposed algorithm incorporates supervised and unsupervised approaches to improve the learning models for intrusion detection and mitigation. Compared with the related works, the experimental outcome shows that the model performs well in a benchmark dataset. It accomplishes an improved detection accuracy of approximately 99.21%.

This research is developing an incubator system that integrates the internet of things and artificial intelligence to improve care for premature babies. The system workflow starts with sensors that collect data from the incubator. Then, the data is sent in real-time to the internet of things (IoT) broker eclipse mosquito using the message queue telemetry transport (MQTT) protocol version 5.0. After that, the data is stored in a database for analysis using the long short-term memory network (LSTM) method and displayed in a web application using an application programming interface (API) service. Furthermore, the experimental results produce as many as 2,880 rows of data stored in the database.

Honey is produced exclusively by honeybees and stingless bees which both are well adapted to tropical and subtropical regions such as Malaysia. Stingless bees are known for producing small amounts of honey and are known for having a unique flavor profile. Problem identified that many stingless bees collapsed due to weather, temperature and environment. It is critical to understand the relationship between the production of stingless bee honey and environmental conditions to improve honey production. Thus, this paper presents a review on stingless bee's honey production and prediction modeling. About 54 previous research has been analyzed and compared in identifying the research gaps. A framework on modeling the prediction of stingless bee honey is derived.

The internet of things (IoT) is a revolutionary innovation in many aspects of our society including interactions, financial activity, and global security such as the military and battlefield internet. Due to the limited energy and processing capacity of network devices, security, energy consumption, compatibility, and device heterogeneity are the long-term IoT problems. As a result, energy and security are critical for data transmission across edge and IoT networks. Existing IoT interoperability techniques need more computation time, have unreliable authentication mechanisms that break easily, lose data easily, and have low confidentiality. In this paper, a key agreement protocol-based authentication mechanism for IoT devices is offered as a solution to this issue. This system makes use of information exchange, which must be secured to prevent access by unauthorized users. Using a compact contiki/cooja simulator, the performance and design of the suggested framework are validated. The simulation findings are evaluated based on detection of malicious nodes after 60 minutes of simulation. The suggested trust method, which is based on privacy access control, reduced packet loss ratio to 0.32%, consumed 0.39% power, and had the greatest average residual energy of 0.99 mJoules at 10 nodes.
Fuzzy linear programming with the intuitionistic polygonal fuzzy numbersIJECEIAES
In real world applications, data are subject to ambiguity due to several factors; fuzzy sets and fuzzy numbers propose a great tool to model such ambiguity. In case of hesitation, the complement of a membership value in fuzzy numbers can be different from the non-membership value, in which case we can model using intuitionistic fuzzy numbers as they provide flexibility by defining both a membership and a non-membership functions. In this article, we consider the intuitionistic fuzzy linear programming problem with intuitionistic polygonal fuzzy numbers, which is a generalization of the previous polygonal fuzzy numbers found in the literature. We present a modification of the simplex method that can be used to solve any general intuitionistic fuzzy linear programming problem after approximating the problem by an intuitionistic polygonal fuzzy number with n edges. This method is given in a simple tableau formulation, and then applied on numerical examples for clarity.

Prostate cancer is the predominant form of cancer observed in men worldwide. The application of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as a guidance tool for conducting biopsies has been established as a reliable and well-established approach in the diagnosis of prostate cancer. The diagnostic performance of MRI-guided prostate cancer diagnosis exhibits significant heterogeneity due to the intricate and multi-step nature of the diagnostic pathway. The development of artificial intelligence (AI) models, specifically through the utilization of machine learning techniques such as deep learning, is assuming an increasingly significant role in the field of radiology. In the realm of prostate MRI, a considerable body of literature has been dedicated to the development of various AI algorithms. These algorithms have been specifically designed for tasks such as prostate segmentation, lesion identification, and classification. The overarching objective of these endeavors is to enhance diagnostic performance and foster greater agreement among different observers within MRI scans for the prostate. This review article aims to provide a concise overview of the application of AI in the field of radiology, with a specific focus on its utilization in prostate MRI.
Seizure stage detection of epileptic seizure using convolutional neural networksIJECEIAES
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), seventy million individuals worldwide suffer from epilepsy, a neurological disorder. While electroencephalography (EEG) is crucial for diagnosing epilepsy and monitoring the brain activity of epilepsy patients, it requires a specialist to examine all EEG recordings to find epileptic behavior. This procedure needs an experienced doctor, and a precise epilepsy diagnosis is crucial for appropriate treatment. To identify epileptic seizures, this study employed a convolutional neural network (CNN) based on raw scalp EEG signals to discriminate between preictal, ictal, postictal, and interictal segments. The possibility of these characteristics is explored by examining how well timedomain signals work in the detection of epileptic signals using intracranial Freiburg Hospital (FH), scalp Children's Hospital Boston-Massachusetts Institute of Technology (CHB-MIT) databases, and Temple University Hospital (TUH) EEG. To test the viability of this approach, two types of experiments were carried out. Firstly, binary class classification (preictal, ictal, postictal each versus interictal) and four-class classification (interictal versus preictal versus ictal versus postictal). The average accuracy for stage detection using CHB-MIT database was 84.4%, while the Freiburg database's time-domain signals had an accuracy of 79.7% and the highest accuracy of 94.02% for classification in the TUH EEG database when comparing interictal stage to preictal stage.
Analysis of driving style using self-organizing maps to analyze driver behaviorIJECEIAES
Modern life is strongly associated with the use of cars, but the increase in acceleration speeds and their maneuverability leads to a dangerous driving style for some drivers. In these conditions, the development of a method that allows you to track the behavior of the driver is relevant. The article provides an overview of existing methods and models for assessing the functioning of motor vehicles and driver behavior. Based on this, a combined algorithm for recognizing driving style is proposed. To do this, a set of input data was formed, including 20 descriptive features: About the environment, the driver's behavior and the characteristics of the functioning of the car, collected using OBD II. The generated data set is sent to the Kohonen network, where clustering is performed according to driving style and degree of danger. Getting the driving characteristics into a particular cluster allows you to switch to the private indicators of an individual driver and considering individual driving characteristics. The application of the method allows you to identify potentially dangerous driving styles that can prevent accidents.
Hyperspectral object classification using hybrid spectral-spatial fusion and ...IJECEIAES
Because of its spectral-spatial and temporal resolution of greater areas, hyperspectral imaging (HSI) has found widespread application in the field of object classification. The HSI is typically used to accurately determine an object's physical characteristics as well as to locate related objects with appropriate spectral fingerprints. As a result, the HSI has been extensively applied to object identification in several fields, including surveillance, agricultural monitoring, environmental research, and precision agriculture. However, because of their enormous size, objects require a lot of time to classify; for this reason, both spectral and spatial feature fusion have been completed. The existing classification strategy leads to increased misclassification, and the feature fusion method is unable to preserve semantic object inherent features; This study addresses the research difficulties by introducing a hybrid spectral-spatial fusion (HSSF) technique to minimize feature size while maintaining object intrinsic qualities; Lastly, a soft-margins kernel is proposed for multi-layer deep support vector machine (MLDSVM) to reduce misclassification. The standard Indian pines dataset is used for the experiment, and the outcome demonstrates that the HSSF-MLDSVM model performs substantially better in terms of accuracy and Kappa coefficient.

ABSTRACT
This paper deals with non-integer internal model control (FIMC) based proportional-
integral-derivative(PID) design for load frequency control (LFC) of single area non-
reheated thermal power system under parameter divergence and random load disturbance.
Firstly, a fractional second order plus dead time(SOPDT) reduced system model is ob-
tained using genetic algorithm through step error minimization. Secondly, a FIMC based
PID controller is designed for single area power system based on reduced system model.
Proposed controller is equipped with single area non-reheated thermal power system. The
resulting controller is tested using MATLAB/SIMULINK under various conditions. The
simulation results show that the controller can accommodate system parameter uncertainty
and load disturbance. Further, simulation shows that it maintains robust performance as
well as minimizes the effect of load fluctuations on frequency deviation. Finally, the pro-
posed method applied to two area power system to show the effectiveness.

1. INTRODUCTION
Generally, electric power system is studied in terms of generation, transmission and distribution systems
in which all generators are operated synchronously at nominal frequency to meet the demand load. The frequency
deviation in the power system is mainly due to mismatch between the generation and load plus losses at every
second. There may be small or large frequency deviation based on the mismatch between generation and load
demand. These mismatches due to random load fluctuations and due to large generator or power plant tripping out,
faults etc. respectively. However, deviations could be positive or negative. The role of load frequency control(LFC)
is to mitigate frequency perturbation. Thus the power system will operate normally [1, 2]. This can be achieved
by adopting a auxiliary controller in addition to the primary control(Governor). From literature[1, 2], conventional
controller is used as auxiliary or secondary control. To get the parameters of this controller, the power system is
modeled and simulated using MATLAB. This paper deals with the modeling of power system through fractional
order differential equations and design of controller.
The fractional order dynamic system is characterized by differential equations in which the derivatives
powers are any real or complex numbers. The approach of fractional order study is mainly used in the area of
mathematics, control and physics [3]. The precision of modeling is accomplished using the theory of fractional
calculus[4]. In view of above fact, integer operators of traditional control methods have been replaced by concept of
fractional calculus[5, 6]. Many modern controllers for LFC as secondary controllers are available like sliding mode
control[7], two degree of freedom PID controller[8], fuzzy controller[9], microprocessor based adaptive control
strategy[10] and direct-indirect adaptive fuzzy controller technique[11, 12, 13]. It can be observed that power system
parameters may alter due to aging, replacement of system units and modeling errors, as a consequent problem
to design a optimum secondary controller becomes a challenging work. From literature, it is noticed that robust
controller is inert to system parameter alteration. Thus, a good robust controller design is needed to take care of
parameter uncertainties as well as load disturbance in power system.
In literature, lot of robust control methods are presented for disturbance rejection and parameter alteration

for LFC. Still a vast research is going on internal model control(IMC) by researchers due to its simplicity. With the
two degree of freedom IMC(TDF IMC)[14], both set point tracking and load disturbance rejection can be achieved.
As a consequent, IMC controller design is an ideal choice for secondary controller for LFC. Saxena[15] designed a
TDF IMC for LFC using approximation techniques like Pade’s and Routh’s, which motivated to adopt the fractional
IMC-PID controller as a secondary controller and is design based on a fractional reduced order model of a system.
2. REDUCTION METHOD FOR SINGLE AREA THERMAL POWER SYSTEM
This section deals with framing of fractional order model of a single area power system using a step error
minimization technique through genetic algorithm. This is segregated into following subsections.
2.1. System investigated
The proposed work deals with modeling of the power system to design secondary controller. Due to this pur-
pose, a single area non-reheated thermal power system has been considered[1]. The thermal power system equipped
with different units like generator GP (s), turbine Gt(s), governor Gg(s), boiler etc. and their dynamics are given
by (1)
Gg(s) =

TGs + 1
, Gt(s) =

TT s + 1
, Gp(s) =

Figure 1. Single area power system linear model
The block diagram of a single area power system is shown in Fig. 1, where ∆Pd is Load disturbance(in
p.u.MW), ∆XG is Change in governor valve position, ∆PG is Change in generator output(in p.u.MW), u is Control
input, R is Speed regulation(in Hz/p.u.MW) and ∆f(s) is Frequency deviation(in Hz).
The overall transfer function is attained as
Case1: From Fig. 1 assume ∆f(s) = ∆f1(s) when ∆Pd(s) = 0, the corresponding transfer function is G1(s).
Case2: From Fig. 1 assume ∆f(s) = ∆f2(s) when u(s) = 0, the corresponding transfer function is G2(s).
Applying the theory of superposition principle to power system model, the overall transfer function is given by (2)
∆f(s) = ∆f1(s) + ∆f2(s) = G1(s)u(s) + G2(s)∆Pd(s) (2)
The aim is to find control law u(s) = −K(s)∆f(s) which mitigates the effect of load alteration on frequency
deviation, where K(s) is fractional IMC-PID controller.
2.2. Fractional system representation
This subsection deals with the fractional order systems through which it can develop a proposed model for
power plant to design a secondary controller.
The representation for a linear time invariant fractional order dynamic system[16] is given as ,

where y(t) and u(t) are output and input vectors respectively and D is differential operator. αk, βk are the order of
derivatives. ak and bk are coefficients of derivatives, ak, bk R. Here H, F Fractional dynamic systems.
The transfer function of fractional order dynamic system is obtained by applying Laplace transform to (3) and (4)
(initial conditions are zero) and is given as (5)

2.3. Design of proposed system
The full order transfer function of single area power system is obtained from (1) and (2), which is given by
(6)
G1(s) =
KP
TP TT TGs3 + (TP TT + TT TG + TGTP )s2 + (TP + TT + TG)s + (1 + KP /R)
(6)
substitute the values of TP = 20 sec, TT = 0.3 sec, TG = 0.08 sec, R = 2.4, KP = 120 from [14] in (6), we get G1(s)
as (7)
A(s) = G1(s) =
250
s3 + 15.88s2 + 42.46s + 106.2

The equation (7) represents integer higher order model which is converted to fractional order model assumed to be

Figure 2. Comparison of step responses of full order model with fractional SOPDT, Routh and Pade approximation
Here the order of A (s) is less than the A(s) and is in fractional form. The step error minimization
technique[17, 18] through Genetic Algorithm(GA)[19, 20] is utilized to obtain parameters of A (s) are given as
K1 = 16.385, L = 0.095, b = 1.897, c = 0.962, p = 1.954, q = 7.031. This is done through MATLAB & simula-
tion.
Thus the attained reduced fractional model A (s) is
A (s) =

The step responses of original model, proposed, Pade’s approximation and Routh’s approximation are compared and
shown in Fig. 2. The performance index ITSE of proposed Pade’s and Routh,s methods are 0.0015, 0.027 and 0.06
respectively. From Fig. 2 and above ITSE values, it is observed that the response of proposed method is very closer
to full order model(original).

3. FRACTIONAL IMC CONTROLLER DESIGN
3.1. Internal Model Control
In this section, model based IMC method for load frequency controller design is considered, which is
developed by M. Morari and coworkers[21, 22]. The block diagram of IMC structure is shown in Fig. 3a, where
CIMC(s) is the controller, P(s) is the power plant and Pm(s) is the predictive plant. Fig. 3b shows block diagram
of conventional closed loop control. From Fig. 3a and Fig. 3b, we can relate C(s) and CIMC(s) as
C(s) =
CIMC(s)
1 − CIMC(s)Pm(s)
(10)
Steps for IMC controller design[23] are as follows.
Step1: The plant model can be represented as
Pm = P+
mP−
m (11)
where P−
m= minimum phase system and P+
m= non-minimum phase system, like zeros in right side of S-plane etc.
Step2: The IMC controller is
CIMC(s) =
1
P−
m
f(s), f(s) =
1
(1 + τcsλ+1)r
(12)
where f(s) is low pass filter with steady state gain of one
where τc is the desired closed loop time constant and r is the positive integer, r ≥1, which are chosen such that
CIMC(s) is physically realizable. Here r is taken as 1 for proper transfer function.
The FIMC controller is designed for fractional SOPDT is given by (9) via method discussed below.
Consider the system [23], is given by (13)
Pm(s) =
ke−θs
a2sβ + a1sα + 1
, β > α (13)
where α : 0.5 ≤ α ≤ 1.5, β : 1.5 ≤ β ≤ 2.5, θ= time delay. Here a2 = τ2
and a1 = 2ζτ.
Using (11), the invertible part of Pm(s) is
P−
m(s) =
k
a2sβ + a1sα + 1
(14)
Using (12), the Fractional IMC controller is
CIMC(s) =
a2sβ
+ a1sα
+ 1
k
1
(1 + τcsλ+1)
(15)
substitute (15) in (10), then the conventional controller C(s) is evaluated and simplified as
C(s) =
a2sβ
+ a1sα
+ 1
k(τcsλ+1 + θs)
(16)
where e−θs
is approximated as (1 − θs) using first order Taylor expansion[23].
Again C(s) is decomposed into FIMC PID filter via technique discussed below.
Multiplying and dividing RHS of (16) by s−α
C(s) =
(a2sβ
+ a1sα

k(τcsλ+1 + θs)

(17)

substitute a2 = τ2
and a1 = 2ζτ in (17) and rearranged as,
C(s) = [

where first part is fractional filter and second part is fractional PID controller.
3.2. FIMC to single area non-reheated power system
To design FIMC, the (9) can be re-framed in the form of (13) is
A (s) =
2.3303e−0.095s
0.142s1.897 + 0.2676s0.962 + 1
(19)
From (13),(18) and (19), we get τ = 0.3768, θ = 0.095, k=2.3303, β = 1.897, α = 0.962, ζ = 0.3551
substituting above values in (18), the fractional IMC-PID filter for single area power system is
C(s) =
s0.038
1 + 10.526τcsλ
1.21(1 + 3.736s−0.962
+ 0.5305s0.935
) (20)
The value of τc and λ are selected in such a way, that it minimizes tracking error and achieves robust performance.
4. RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS
In this section, a model with proposed system and its controller is designed in simulation and an extensive
simulation is carried out. In this model an performance index ISE is accompanied to determine the error of frequency
deviation. Based on ISE, Overshoot, undershoot and settling time, we choose best λ and τc. The obtained parameters
λ and τc are λ=0.22 and τc=0.02

4.1. Robustness
Examining robustness of controller is vital because modeling of system dynamics is not perfect. So we have
chosen fifty percentage uncertainty in system parameters to check robustness of controller. The uncertain parameter
δi, for all i = 1, 2, .., 5 are taken as[14]. Here δ is parameter uncertainty. The lower bounds and upper bounds of
system uncertainty responses for proposed, Pade’s and Routh’s method are shown in Fig. 5a and Fig. 5b respectively.

case are compared and given in Table 1. It is observed that, there is significant difference in ISE between the proposed
and Pade’s, Routh’s. Thus proposed controller is more robust compared to other two controllers.

5. CONCLUSION
A good robust LFC technique is required to act against load perturbation, system parameter uncertainties
and modeling error. In this paper a good approximation model reduction technique i.e step error minimization
method is adopted to design a robust fractional IMC based PID controller for non-reheated thermal power system. It
consists of fractional filter and fractional order PID. The tuning parameters, time constant τc and non integer λ are
evaluated to get fast settling time and better overshoot/undershoot respectively. The simulation results showed that
the proposed controller is more robust and good at set point tracking and for disturbance rejection. The performance
of proposed method is good when applied to two area power system.
