A new technique based on orthogonal filters and iterative frequency tracking is proposed to estimate harmonic components in power systems for real time applications. Frequency interpolation is used to estimate fundamental frequency and harmonics when the nominal frequency of the signal is a non-integer value. Fixed data window size and fixed sampling rate are the two advantageous features of the proposed technique. An off-line computation method with linear interpolation is proposed to reduce the number of computations involved during the generation of filter coefficients. The proposed technique was implemented using a real-time DSP (digital signal processor) data acquisition system. The performance of the proposed technique was studied by estimating the harmonic components of various signals. A FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) based technique was also used to estimate harmonic components for comparison. It has been shown that the accurate fundamental frequency is computed using iterative technique, and then accurate harmonic components are estimated when the fundamental frequency is not equal to the power system nominal frequency.

In this work, a new real-time Simulation method is designed for nonlinear control techniques applied to power converters. We propose two different implementations: in the first one (Single Hardware in The Loop: SHIL), both model and control laws are inserted in the same Digital Signal Processor (DSP), and in the second approach (Double Hardware in The Loop: DHIL), the equations are loaded in different embedded systems. With this methodology, linear and nonlinear control techniques can be designed and compared in a quick and cheap real-time realization of the proposed systems, ideal for both students and engineers who are interested in learning and validating converters performance. The methodology can be applied to buck, boost, buck-boost, flyback, SEPIC and 3-phase AC-DC boost converters showing that the new and high performance embedded systems can evaluate distinct nonlinear controllers. The approach is done using matlab-simulink over commodity Texas Instruments Digital Signal Processors (TI-DSPs). The main purpose is to demonstrate the feasibility of proposed real-time implementations without using expensive HIL systems such as Opal-RT and Typhoon-HL.

Matched-field processing (MFP) localizes sources more accurately than plane-wave beamforming by employing full-wave acoustic propagation models for the cluttered ocean environment. The minimum variance distortionless response MFP (MVDR–MFP) algorithm incorporates the MVDR technique into the MFP algorithm to enhance beamforming performance. Such an adaptive MFP algorithm involves intensive computational and memory requirements due to its complex acoustic model and environmental adaptation. The real-time implementation of adaptive MFP algorithms for large surveillance areas presents a serious computational challenge where high-performance embedded computing and parallel processing may be required to meet real-time constraints. In this paper, three parallel algorithms based on domain decomposition techniques are presented for the MVDR–MFP algorithm on distributed array systems. The parallel performance factors in terms of execution times, communication times, parallel efficiencies, and memory capacities are examined on three potential distributed systems including two types of digital signal processor arrays and a cluster of personal computers. The performance results demonstrate that these parallel algorithms provide a feasible solution for real-time, scalable, and cost-effective adaptive beamforming on embedded, distributed array systems.

A controller based on DSP (Digital signal processor) is built during Arc Ion Plating. The purpose of controller is to realize real-time and flexible control on Arc Source Device. It is shown that by using DSP, Arc Source Device can be controlled and protected online. As a result, not only can Arc Source Device change output current according to the order from upper monitor momentarily, but also the faulty or failed Arc Source Device can be isolated rapidly.
