  • A pipelined baseband digital predistortion architecture for RF amplifier linearization

    Creator:
    Xu, Xiangqing
    Abstract:
    This thesis describes the design of a baseband digital predistortion architecture for radio frequency (RF) amplifier linearization. Existing amplifier linearization techniques are first examined. The nonlinearity of an amplifier can be characterized as amplitude-to-amplitude distortion and amplitude-to-phase distortion. The distortion can be corrected by providing a predistorted driver signal (both...

  • Active power filter for the cancellation of harmonic line current distortion

    Creator:
    Merk, Marcel
    Abstract:
    With the increased attention on high efficiency and energy savings, power electronic energy conversion equipment is increasingly incorporated in all levels of the power system. The drawback of such equipment is the generation of nonsinusoidal currents in the power distribution network due to the nonlinear operation. Harmonic currents may distort...

  • Hybrid electric vehicle active rectifier performance analysis

    Creator:
    Amon, Ean A.
    Abstract:
    In advanced hybrid electric vehicle development, performance and dependability are essential considerations in the design process. High efficiency is crucial in a successful design and fault tolerance is necessary to provide limp-home capability under faulted operating conditions. The reduction of electromagnetic interference is mandatory to reduce interference in communications and...

  • A Microgrid Design Case Study : Synchrophasor Placement and Development of a Protection Laboratory for the Oregon State University - Corvallis Campus

    Creator:
    Huo, Chen
    Abstract:
    In the past two years, Oregon State University (OSU) Corvallis campus suffered several power outages. The estimated cost of one of those outages was close to a million dollars worth of equipment and impact on research projects. Meanwhile, the campus grid operates with severely aging power assets. The reliability of...
