Fierro, Felipe (author), Lizana F., Ricardo (author), Alcaide, Abraham M. (author), Rivera, Sebastian (author)The MMC converter is the key topology for HVDC applications. In these systems, a major complexity is the number of modules and components required per phase to achieve nominal voltage and current levels for applications in transmission system. In this paper, the topology and control of a two-phase MMC system for HVDC applications is presented....conference paper 2023

de Gijsel, Stefan L. (author), Vijn, A.R.P.J. (author), Tan, Reinier G. (author)This paper proposes an algorithm to localize a magnetic dipole using a limited number of noisy measurements from magnetic field sensors. The algorithm is based on the theory of compressed sensing, and exploits the sparseness of the magnetic dipole in space. Beforehand, a basis consisting of magnetic dipole fields belonging to individual...journal article 2022

Hepworth, M. (author), Garofano, V. (author), Pang, Y. (author), Reppa, V. (author)Sustainability goals have reignited interest in more fuel efficient modalities for urban freight transportation. The autonomous inland vessel has the potential to enable a modality shift to the waterway, however economically-conscious solutions to the technological challenges are lacking. This paper explores the potential role of stereovision...journal article 2022

Schenato, Luca (author), Aguilar Lopez, J.P. (author), Galtarossa, Andrea (author), Pasuto, Alessandro (author), Bogaard, T.A. (author), Palmieri, Luca (author)This paper describes the implementation of an FBG sensor to measure water levels in a dike. The sensor is based on a 3D-printed mechanical transducer through which the external pressure is converted into longitudinal strain exerted on the fiber. An additional FBG integrated within the sensor measures temperature and is used to compensate for...journal article 2021

Yang, Jun (author), Thomas, Arun Geo (author), Singh, Satish (author), Baldi, S. (author), Wang, X. (author)Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have multi-domain applications, fixed-wing UAVs being a widely used class. Despite the ongoing research on the topics of guidance and formation control of fixed-wing UAVs, little progress is known on implementation of semi-physical validation platforms (software-in-the-loop or hardware-in-the-loop) for such...journal article 2020

Jiang, J. (author)This Ph.D. dissertation describes the theory and realization of wide-bandwidth magnetic sensors for current measurements which breach the conventional offset and noise constraints in CMOS processes. These are achieved by several circuit-level and system-level innovations, including the use of three orthogonal ripple reduction loops (RRLs) in...doctoral thesis 2019

(author), Zhang, Kouchi (author), Sarro, Pasqualina M (author), Zhang, Guoyi (author)Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate a novel 3D system-in-package (SiP) approach. This new packaging approach is based on stacked silicon submount technology. As demonstrators, a smart lighting module and a sensor systems were successfully developed by using the fabrication and assembly process described in this paper. Design...journal article 2018

Pan, S. (author), Luo, Yanquan (author), Heidary Shalmany, S. (author), Makinwa, K.A.A. (author)Temperature sensors are often used for the temperature compensation of frequency references [1-5]. High resolution and energy efficiency are then critical requirements, the former to minimize jitter and the latter to minimize power dissipation in a given conversion time. A MEMS-resonator-based sensor meets both criteria [1], but requires two...conference paper 2017
