are directed toward the sliding plane, the system state can be enforced to remain near (lie on) the sliding plane by proper operation of the converter switch(es).
Sliding-mode controller design requires only a proper selection of the sliding surface Eq. (8.19), i.e., of coefficients c i[r]

Medium-Frequency Radio (20 kHz to 2 MHz)
The low-frequency portion of the band is used for around-the-clock communication services over moderately long distances and where adequate power is available to overcome the high level of atmospheric noise. The upper portion is used for AM ra- dio[r]

Next, components must be assembled or integrated to form the complete software package. Integration testi[r]

1. Introduction
Battery storage has long been used in many applications such as portable multimedia player, mobile phone, portable tool, laptop computer, emergency exit sign, uninterruptible power supply and transportation auxiliary supply. Owing to the advancement of material science and p[r]

Converter-controlled electrical machine drives are very important in modern industrial applications. Some examples in the high-power range are metal rolling mills, cement mills, and gas line compressors. In the medium-power range are textile mills, paper mills, and subw[r]

Experimental Results
A DC-DC buck converter with a hysteresis feedback control circuit was physically built to verify the method under variable input and load conditions. The converter was built using an International Rectifier IRF540 power MOSFET, an International Rectifier Schottky MBR1[r]

The DC motor consists of two basic parts: a stationary magnetic field and a current-carrying coil on the armature. The force produced by the interaction of these two components produces a torque that causes the armature to rotate. The stationary magnetic field is produced by a permanent magnet for m[r]

DC power supplies can be broadly classified as linear and switching power supplies.
A linear power supply is the oldest and simplest type of power supply. The output voltage is regulated by dropping the extra input voltage across a series transistor (therefore, also r[r]

Several types of nanocomputers have been proposed. For the last one thousand years the synthesis and design of computers have been performed as a sequence of different paradigms and changes, e.g., from gears to relays, then to valves and to transistors, and more recently (in the 1980s) to int[r]

Let us consider now situation in a three-phase PWM voltage source inverter (VSI). From the point of view of the distinct non-zero voltage values that can be obtained, there is no difference between six-step VSI and a PWM VSI. A six-step VSI is therefore analysed. Power circuit of the VSI and[r]

The intuition of the wirelength based placement objective function is to reduce signal delays of the design and enhance routability simply by minimizing the total (weighted) wirelength. With the aggressive advance of technology, placement starts to model other important aspects of the desi[r]
