Self-tuning virtual synchronous generator control for improving frequency stability in autonomous photovoltaic-diesel microgrids

Abstract This paper investigates the use of a virtual synchronous generator (VSG) to improve frequency stability in an autonomous photovoltaic-diesel microgrid with energy storage.VSG control is designed to emulate inertial response and damping power via power injection from/to the energy Zip Ties storage system.The effect of a VSG with constant pa

Gatewaying theWireless Sensor Networks

With the dev elopmen t of Internet of Things (IoT), bridging wireless sensor netw orks (WSNs) with other netw orks has become importan t.We Shorts divide bridging solutions into tw o categ ories: the hardw are solutions and the middlew are solutions.The hardw are solutions have both low pow er short distance wireless interf aces and other types of

Fireweed (Heartleaf nettle) Control in Pastures

Fireweed (Urtica chamaedryoides) (Figure 1) is native to Florida, but has only recently become problematic.This winter annual Sensor Kit species is commonly observed in north and central Florida pastures, particularly in bareground areas (near feeding pens and under fences) as well as along tree lines where forage grasses are less dense.It is parti
