Review of Active and Reactive Power Sharing Strategies in Hierarchical Controlled Microgrids

Review of Active and Reactive Power Sharing Strategies in Hierarchical Controlled Microgrids Abstract Microgrids consist of multiple parallel-connected distributed generation (DG) units with coordinatedcontrol strategies, which are able to operate in both grid-connected and islanded mode. Microgrids are attracting more and more attention since they can alleviate the stress of main transmission systems, reduce feeder losses, and improve system power quality.

Beamforming OFDM Performance Under Joint Phase Noise and IQ Imbalance

Beamforming OFDM Performance Under Joint Phase Noise and I/Q Imbalance Abstract Phase noise (PHN) and in-phase/quadrature (I/Q) imbalance are two major radio-frequency (RF) impairments in direct-conversion wireless transceivers. Beamforming and orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) schemes have been adopted in broadband wireless standards due to their significant performance gains. In this paper, we analyze the impact of joint I/Q imbalance and PHN onbeamforming OFDM direct-conversion transceivers. We derive an exact […]
