Abstract:
Since building-integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) modules are typically installed during, not after, the construction phase, BIPVs have a profound impact compared to conventional building-applied photovoltaics on the electrical installation and construction planning of a building. As the cost of BIPV modules decreases over time, the impact of electrical system architecture and converters will become more prevalent in the overall cost of the system. This manuscript provides an overview of potential BIPV electrical architectures. System-level criteria for BIPV installations are established, thus providing a reference framework to compare electrical architectures. To achieve modularity and to minimize engineering costs, module-level DC/DC converters preinstalled in the BIPV module turned out to be the best solution. The second part of this paper establishes converter-level requirements, derived and related to the BIPV system. These include measures to increase the converter fault tolerance for extended availability and to ensure essential safety features.

Abstract:
Portable devices are often powered by batteries and DC-DC converters are used to convert battery energy to supply power for microprocessors and integrated circuits. Portable electronic devices are required to be compact and, hence, space for converters is very limited. Therefore, the demand for integrating individual components into modules to reduce the size and increase the power density of DC-DC converters is increasing. It is important to develop a low temperature sintering NiCuZn ferrites with a superior DC-bias-superposition characteristic; the nonmagnetic materials co-fired with the magnetic NiCuZn ferrites, and the low-pressure assisted constrained sintering process for the large area NiCuZn ferrites substrates for the DC-DC converter modules. This study successfully developed the key technologies and materials for the development of DC-DC converter module. It integrated the magnetic NiCuZn ferrites with superior DC-bias superposition characteristic and nonmagnetic ferrite materials using multilayer ceramic processing and low-pressure assisted constrained sintering technologies to prepare a large area NiCuZn ferrite substrate for DC-DC converter module.

Abstract:
This paper introduces a novel multiport power converter with modular architecture for photovoltaic (PV)-battery based power systems. Compared to conventional centralized multiport converters, the proposed converter significantly improves the utilization of PV available energy and battery capacity as it does not require a high number of series-connected PV and battery modules. The proposed converter also eliminates the need for additional battery cell/module equalizer circuitry by being able to implement directly energy management strategies that consider the different capabilities of battery modules to ensure charge/stress balancing. This makes it a promising solution for interfacing second-life batteries or for systems that utilize batteries with a high degree of mismatch. The modularity of the proposed converter enhances system reliability and fault tolerance and reduces the power/voltage ratings of the power electronic devices. The converter modes of operation, control strategy and design considerations are discussed. A 75 V/1 kW integrated PV-battery power system prototype is built and tested to validate the concept.

Abstract:
With the increasing integration density of power control unit (PCU) modules, more functional power converter units are integrated into a single module for applications in electric vehicles or hybrid electric vehicles (EVs/HEVs). Different types of power dies with different footprints are usually placed closely together. Due to the constraints from the placement of power dies and liquid cooling schemes, heat-flow paths from the junction to coolant are possibly inconsistent for power dies, resulting in different thermal resistance and capacitance (RC) characteristics of power dies. This presents a critical challenge for optimal liquid cooling at a low cost. In this paper, a highly integrated PCU module is developed for application in EVs/HEVs. The underlying mechanism of the inconsistent RC characteristics of power dies for the developed PCU module is revealed by experiments and simulations. It is found that the matching placement design of power dies with a heat sink structure and liquid cooler, as well as a liquid cooling scheme, can alleviate the inconsistent RC characteristics of power dies in highly integrated PCU modules. The findings in this paper provide valuable guidance for the design of highly integrated PCU modules.

Abstract:
As small satellites are becoming more widespread for new businesses and applications, the development time, failure rate and cost of the spacecraft must be reduced. One of the systems with the highest cost and the most frequent failure in the satellite is the Electrical Power System (EPS). One approach to achieve rapid development times while reducing the cost and failure rate is using scalable modules. We propose a solar module integrated converter (SMIC) and its verification process as a key component for power generation in EPS. SMIC integrates the solar array, its regulators and the telemetry acquisition unit. This paper details the design and verification process of the SMIC and presents the in-orbit results of 12 SMICs used in Ten-Koh satellite, which was developed in less than 1.5 years. The in-orbit data received since the launch reveal that solar module withstands not only the launching environment of H-IIA rocket but also more than 1500 orbits in LEO. The modular approach allowed the design, implementation and qualification of only one module, followed by manufacturing and integration of 12 subsequent flight units. The approach with the solar module can be followed in other components of the EPS such as battery and power regulators.

Abstract:
Point-of-load (POL) converters have been used extensively in IT products. Today, almost every microprocessor is powered by a multi-phase POL converter with high output current, which is also known as voltage regulator (VR). In the state-of-the-art VRs, the circuits are mostly constructed with discrete components and situated on the motherboard, where it can occupy more than 1/3 of the footprint of the motherboard. A compact POL is desirable to save precious space on motherboards to be used for some other critical functionalities. Recently, industry has released many modularized POL converters, in which the bulky inductor is integrated with the active components to increase the power density. This concept has been demonstrated at current levels less than 5A and power density around 600-1000W/in3. This might address the needs of small hand-held equipment such as smart phones, but it is far from meeting the needs for the applications such as laptops, desktops and servers, where tens and hundreds of amperes are needed. A 3D integrated POL module with an output current of tens of ampere has been successfully demonstrated at the Center for Power Electronic Systems (CPES), Virginia Tech. In this structure, the inductor is elaborated with low temperature co-fire ceramic (LTCC) ferrite, as a substrate where the active components are placed. The lateral flux inductor is proposed to achieve both a low profile and high power density. Generally, the size of the inductor can be continuously shrunk by raising the switching frequency. The emerging gallium-nitride (GaN) power devices enable the creation and use of a multi-MHz, high efficiency POL converter. This dissertation firstly explores the LTCC inductor substrate design in the multi-MHz range for a high-current POL module with GaN devices. The impacts of different frequencies and different LTCC ferrite materials on the inductor are also discussed. Thanks to the DC flux cancellation effect, the inverse coupled inductor further improves the power density of a 20A, 5MHz two-phase POL module to more than 1kW/in3. An FEA simulation model is developed to study the core loss of the lateral flux coupled inductor, which shows the inverse coupling is also beneficial for core loss reduction. The ceramic-based 3D integrated POL module, however, is not widely adopted in industrial products because of the relatively high cost of the LTCC ferrite material and complicated manufacturing process. To solve that problem, a printed circuit board (PCB) inductor substrate with embedded alloy flake composite core is proposed. The layerwise magnetic core is laminated into a multi-layer PCB, and the winding of the inductor then is formed by the copper layers and conventional PCB vias. As a demonstration of system integration, a 20A, 1.5MHz integrated POL module is designed and fabricated based on a 4-layer PCB with embedded flake core, which realizes more than 85% efficiency and 600W/in3 power density. The application of standardized PCB processes reduces the cost for manufacturing the integrated modules due to the easy automation and the low temperature manufacturing process. Combining the PCB-embedded coupled inductor substrate and advanced control strategy, the two-phase 40A POL modules are elaborated as a complete integrated laptop VR solution. The coupled inductor structure is slightly modified to improve its transient performance. The nonlinearity of the inductance is controlled by adding either air slots or low permeability magnetic slots into the leakage flux path of the coupled inductor. Then the leakage flux, which determines the transient response of the coupled inductor, can be well controlled. If we directly replace the discrete VR solution with the proposed integrated modules, more than 50% of the footprint on the motherboard can be saved. Although the benefits of the lateral flux inductor have been validated in terms of its high power density and low profile, the planar core is excited under very non-uniform flux. Some parts of the core are even pushed into the saturation region, which totally goes against the conventional sense of magnetic design. The final part of this dissertation focuses on evaluating the performance of the planar core with variable flux. The counterbalance between DC flux and AC flux is revealed, with which the AC flux and the core loss density are automatically limited in the saturated core. The saturation is essentially no longer detrimental in this special structure. Compared with the conventional uniform flux design, the variable flux structure extends the operating point into the saturation region, which gives better utilization of the core. In addition, the planar core with variable flux also provides better thermal management and more core loss reduction under light load. As conclusions, this research first challenges the conventional magnetic design rules, which always assumes uniform flux. The unique characteristics and benefits of the variable flux core are proved. As an example of taking advantages of the lateral flux inductor, the PCB integrated POL modules are proposed and demonstrated as a high-density VR solution. The integrated modules are cost-effective and ready to be commercialized, which could enable the next technological innovation for the whole computing and telecom industry.

Abstract:
Advances in very large scale integration (VLSI) technologies impose challenges for voltage regulator modules (VRM) to deliver high-quality power to modern microprocessors. As an enabling technology, multiphase converters have become the standard practice in VRM industry. The primary objectives of this dissertation are to develop advanced topologies and innovative integrated magnetics for high-efficiency, high-power-density and fast-transient VRMs. The optimization of multiphase VRMs has also been addressed. Todayâ s multiphase VRMs are almost universally based on the buck topology. With increased input voltage and decreased output voltage, the multiphase buck converter suffers from a very small duty cycle and cannot achieve a desirable efficiency. The multiphase tapped-inductor buck converter is one of the simplest topologies with a decent duty cycle. However, the leakage inductance of its tapped inductors causes a severe voltage spike problem. An improved topology, named the multiphase coupled-buck converter, is proposed. This innovative topology enables the use of a larger duty cycle with clamped device voltage and recovered leakage energy. Under the same transient responses, the multiphase coupled-buck converter has a significantly better efficiency than the multiphase buck converter. By integrating all the magnetic components into a single core, in which the windings are wound around the center leg and the air gaps are placed on the two outer legs, it is possible for multiphase VRMs to further improve efficiency and cut the size and cost. Unfortunately, this structure suffers from an undesirable core structure and huge leakage inductance. An improved integrated magnetic structure is proposed to overcome these limitations. All the windings are wound around the two outer legs and the air gap is placed on the center leg. The improved structure also features the flux ripple cancellation in the center leg and strongly reverse-coupled inductors. Both core loss and winding loss are reduced. The steady-state current ripples can be reduced without compromising the transient responses. The overall efficiency of the converter is improved. The input inductor can also be integrated in the improved integrated magnetic structure. Currently, selecting the appropriate number of channels for multiphase VRMs is still an empirical trial-and-error process. This dissertation proposes a methodology for determining the right number of channels for the optimal multiphase design. The problem formulation and general method for the optimization are proposed. Two examples are performed step by step to demonstrate the proposed optimization methodology. Both are focused on typical VRM 9.0 designs for the latest Pentium 4® microprocessors and their results are compared with the industry practice.

Abstract:
The thesis has three main themes: analysis and optimal design of Cuk DC-DC converters; integration of Cuk DC-DC converters with photovoltaic (PV) modules to improve operation during partial shading; and an artificial intelligence model for the PV module, permitting an accurate maximum power point (MPP) tracking in the integrated system. The major contribution of the thesis is the control of an integrated photovoltaic module and DC-DC converter configuration for obtaining maximum power generation under non-uniform solar illumination. In place of bypass diodes, the proposed scheme embeds bidirectional Cuk DC-DC converters within the serially connected PV modules. A novel control scheme for the converters has been developed to adjust their duty ratios, enabling all the PV modules to operate at the MPPs corresponding to individual lighting conditions. A detailed analysis of a step-down Cuk converter has been carried out leading to four transfer functions of the converter in two modes, namely variable input - constant output voltage, and variable output - constant input voltage. The response to switch duty ratio variation is shown to exhibit a non-minimum phase feature. A novel scheme for selecting the circuit components is developed using the criteria of suppressing input current and output voltage ripple percentages at a steady state, and minimising the time integral of squared transient response errors. The designed converter has been tested in simulation and in practice, and has been shown to exhibit improved responses in both operating modes. A Neuro-Fuzzy network has been applied in modelling the characteristics of a PV module. Particle-Swarm-Optimisation (PSO) has been employed for the first time as the training algorithm, with which the tuning speed has been improved. The resulting model has optimum compactness and interpretability and can predict the MPPs of individual PV modules in real time. Experimental data have confirmed its improved accuracy. The tuned Neuro-Fuzzy model has been applied to a practical PV power generation system for MPP control. The results have shown an average error of 1.35% compared with the maximum extractable power of the panel used. The errors obtained, on average, are also about four times less than those using the genetic-algorithm-based model proposed in a previous research. All the techniques have been incorporated in a complete simulation system consisting of three PV panels, one boost and two bidirectional Cuk DC-DC converters. This has been compared under the same weather conditions as the conventional approach using bypass diodes. The results have shown that the new system can generate 32% more power.

Abstract:
This thesis examines converter topologies suitable for Module Integrated Converters (MICs) in grid interactive photovoltaic (PV) systems, and makes a contribution to the development of the MIC topologies based on the two-inductor boost converter, which has received less research interest than other well known converters. The thesis provides a detailed analysis of the resonant two-inductor boost converter in the MIC implementations with intermediate constant DC links. Under variable frequency control, this converter is able to operate with a variable DC gain while maintaining the resonant condition. A similar study is also provided for the resonant two-inductor boost converter with the voltage clamp, which aims to increase the output voltage range while reducing the switch voltage stress. An operating point with minimized power loss can be also established under the fixed load condition. Both the hard-switched and the soft-switched current fed two-inductor boost converters are developed for the MIC implementations with unfolding stages. Nondissipative snubbers and a resonant transition gate drive circuit are respectively employed in the two converters to minimize the power loss. The simulation study of a frequency-changer-based two-inductor boost converter is also provided. This converter features a small non-polarised capacitor in a second phase output to provide the power balance in single phase inverter applications. Four magnetic integration solutions for the two-inductor boost converter have also been presented and they are promising in reducing the converter size and power loss.

Abstract:
This thesis examines the development of DC-DC converters that are suitable for Module Integrated Converters, (MICs), in grid interactive photovoltaic (PV) systems, and especially concentrates on the study of the half bridge dual converter, which was previously developed from the conventional half bridge converter. Both hard-switched and soft-switched half bridge dual converters are constructed, which are rated at 88W each and transform a nominal 17.6Vdc input to an output in the range from 340V to 360Vdc. An initial prototype converter operated at 100kHz and is used as a base line device to establish the operational behaviours of the converter. The second hard-switched converter operated at 250kHz and included a coaxial matrix transformer that significantly reduced the power losses related to the transformer leakage inductance. The soft-switched converter operated at 1MHz and is capable of absorbing the parasitic elements into the resonant tank. Extensive theoretical analysis, simulation and experimental results are provided for each converter. All three converters achieved conversion efficiencies around 90%. The progressive increases in the operation frequency, while maintaining the conversion efficiency, will translate into the reduced converter size and weight. Finally different operation modes for the soft-switched converter are established and the techniques for predicting the occurrence of those modes are developed. The analysis of the effects of the transformer winding capacitance also shows that soft switching condition applies for both the primary side mosfets and the output rectifier diodes.

Abstract:
It has been well-recognized that non-uniform solar irradiation of photovoltaic (PV) panels causes electrical mismatching of cells and may result in reduced output power and cell thermal breakdown. Bypass diodes are commonly used, but challenges exist into obtaining the maximum power point tracking in these partially shaded PV panels for each weather condition. This is due to that there are multiple peak power points present in their Power-Voltage characteristic curves which makes difficult to locate the global maximum power point. The work presented in this thesis studies in detail the converter topologies and control methods which can be used in the PV power generation systems to overcome effectively the shortcomings caused by partial shading. The proposed topology is an integrated bi-directional Cuk converter and PV-panel module. The particular example investigated includes two PV panels connected across two terminals of the Cuk converter. The features of this system in power harness are studied under partial shading conditions, its superior performance in power generation is demonstrated through simulation and practical tests. The generated power is 30% higher than that from a two PV panel system using only bypass diodes. To develop the control schemes for the above system a detailed study was performed leading to the derivation of the transfer function model describing the dynamic responses of voltages across the two PV panels corresponding to the variations of converter switch duty ratio. Experimental verification of this confirms that the model is sufficiently accurate for the application of controller design and tests. A novel maximum power point tracking scheme is developed. This consists of a switching selection scheme and a model based on an optimal control algorithm. The former determines which switch-diode pair in the bidirectional Cuk converter to be active according to measured light levels on each PV panel and the ability to predict the optimal voltage values across the individual PV panels under any practical irradiance and temperature levels. The performance of the controller is tested in simulation as well as in practice under various modes of partial shading, all giving desired results in achieving the maximum power generation. The final contribution lies in the design and construction of an experimental prototype consisting of an inner bidirectional Cuk converter across two PV panels and a terminal boost converter, controlled by DSP-based microcontroller. This setup enables further development and verification of the control schemes for this integrated converter and PV-panel system.

Abstract:
The non-isolated POL converters are widely used in computers, telecommunication systems, portable electronics, and many other applications. These converters are usually constructed using discrete components, and operated at a lower frequency around 200 ~ 600 kHz to achieve a decent efficiency at the middle of 80\'s%. The passive components, such as inductors and capacitors, are bulky, and they occupy a considerable foot-print. As the power demands increase for POL converters and the limited real estate of the mother board, the POL converters must be made significantly smaller than what they have demonstrated to date. To achieve these goals, two things have to happen simultaneously. The first is a significant increase in the switching frequency to reduce the size and weight of the inductors and capacitors. The second is to integrate passive components, especially magnetics, with active components to realize the needed power density.
Today, this concept has been demonstrated at a level less than 5A and a power density around 300-700W/in3 by using silicon-based power semiconductors. This might address the need of small hand-held equipment such as PDAs and smart phones. However, it is far from meeting the needs for applications, such as netbook, notebook, desk-top and server applications where tens and hundreds of amperes are needed.
After 30 years of silicon MOSFET development, the silicon has approached its theoretical limits. The recently emerged GaN transistors as a possible candidate to replace silicon devices in various power conversion applications. GaN devices are high electron mobility transistors (HEMT) and have higher band-gap, higher electron mobility, and higher electron velocity than silicon devices, and offer the potential benefits for high frequency power conversions. By implementing the GaN device, it is possible to build the POL converter that can achieve high frequency, high power density, and high efficiency at the same time. GaN technology is in its early stage; however, its significant gains are projected in the future. The first generation GaN devices can outperform the state-of-the-art silicon devices with superior FOM and packaging.
The objective of this work is to explore the design of high frequency, high power density 12 V input POL modules with GaN devices and the 3D integration technique. This work discusses the fundamental differences between the enhancement mode and depletion mode GaN transistors, the effect of parasitics on the performance of the high frequency GaN POL, the 3D technique to integrate the active layer with LTCC magnetic substrate, and the thermal design of a high density module using advanced substrates with improved thermal conductivity.
The hardware demonstrators are two 12 V to 1.2 V highly integrated 3D POL modules, the single phase 10 A module and two phase 20 A module, all built with depletion mode GaN transistors and low profile LTCC inductors.

Abstract:
AbstractThe quest for ubiquitous wireless connectivity, drives an increasing demand for compact and efficient means of frequency generation. Conventional synthesizer options, however, generally trade one requirement for the other, achieving either excellent levels of efficiency by leveraging LC-oscillators, or a very compact area by relying on ring-oscillators. This chapter describes a recently introduced class of inductorless frequency synthesizers, based on the periodic realignment of a ring-oscillator, that have the potential to break this tradeoff. After analyzing their jitter-power product, the conditions that ensure optimum performance are derived and a novel digital-to-time converter range-reduction technique is introduced, to enable low-jitter and low-power fractional-N frequency synthesis. A prototype, which implements the proposed design guidelines and techniques, has been fabricated in 65 nm CMOS. It occupies a core area of 0:0275 mm$$^{2}$$ 2 and covers the 1:6-to-3:0 GHz range, achieving an absolute rms jitter (integrated from 30 kHz-to-30 MHz) of 397 fs at 2:5 mW power. With a corresponding jitter-power figure-of-merit of −244 dB in the fractional-N mode, the prototype outperforms prior state-of-the-art inductorless frequency synthesizers.

Abstract:
The objective of this chapter is to describe how it is possible to integrate and/or migrate information system where local heterogeneous databases are involved. ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) systems are very complex standardized information systems, and they are often vital for the companies that use them. Therefore, the authors use integration and migration of ERP systems as an example. Normally, ERP systems are migrated/converted overnight as it normally is not possible to integrate different ERP modules from different ERP suppliers. This is very risky as many types of industries cannot function without a running ERP system. The main focus of this chapter is to illustrate how it is possible to migrate/convert an ERP system module by module and thus minimizing the risk of staying without a functioning ERP system. In central databases, the consistency of data is normally implemented by using the ACID (Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation and Durability) properties of a DBMS (Data Base Management System). This is not possible if heterogeneous databases are involved and the availability of data also has to be optimized. Therefore, in this chapter, the authors use so called relaxed ACID properties across different database systems or ERP modules. The objective of designing relaxed ACID properties across different database systems is that the users can trust the data they use even if the involved database temporarily are inconsistent.

Abstract:
In this chapter, the author provides an example of an integrated and collaborative activity for in-service mathematics teachers that was implemented synchronously online. While prior research details how this lesson developed middle and secondary teachers' mathematics content knowledge of logarithms and teachers' science content knowledge concept of pH, this chapter focuses on how the lesson was converted from a face-to-face format to the online format while supporting research-based essential teaching skills, specifically NCTM's Mathematics Teaching Practices (MTPs). Evidence is provided for how three MTPs were upheld using the online platform Blackboard Collaborate, followed by recommendations for other teacher educators wishing to engage teachers in online learning that supports mathematics education goals of integrated STEM education through mathematical discourse, conceptual understanding, and reasoning about mathematical representations.

Abstract:
A new theory of emotions is derived from the semantics of the language of emotions. The sound structures of 36 Old Arabic word roots that express specific emotions are converted into abstract models. By substitution from two tables, abstract models are converted into concrete theories about the nature of the specific emotions that are likely to be validated. Theories confirmed by the author’s own emotional experience (self reports), and by previously corroborated theories, are considered corroborated. These theories about specific emotions are woven together into an integrated theory of all emotions. The theory models emotions and emotional mechanisms, dimensions and polarities in ways amenable to affective computing. The findings are supported by clinical psychology. Old Arabic is chosen because its words, sounds and meanings are consistent and have not changed for at least 1,400 years. The theory can be expanded by incorporating additional emotional word roots from Arabic and other alphabetical languages.

Abstract:
The Bay of Bengal Initiative for Multi-Sectoral Technical and Economic Cooperation (BIMSTEC) is one of the solutions to converge the economic interests of India's Look East Policy and Thailand's Look West Policy. Its objective is to integrate the regions on both sides of the Bay of Bengal. The development of BIMSTEC countries is indispensable for the forward march of Asia as a whole. This chapter analyzes the India-BIMSTEC trade activities after the establishment of BIMSTEC bloc. Gravity model and Auto-Regressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) are used. The model estimates the sets of regression equations to measure the effects of regional trade agreements using ordinary least squares with nation dummies to capture country-specific fixed effects. The study reveals that all coefficients of regional dummy variables are mostly positive and significant, indicating the agreements that tend to enhance more trade than bilateral trade agreements. The authors state that based on India's trade with the BIMSTEC region, there exists a scope for intraregional trade in the future.

Abstract:
The traditional collaborative filtering recommendation systems have many deficiencies, which make them incompetent in the domain of clothing recommendation; we proposed a new ClothNet model based on CNN, RNN, collaborative filtering and the characteristics of the fashion industry. The accuracy and generalization performance of this model are improved compared with traditional systems. The visual information integrated into the ClothNet model enables the recommendation system to alleviate the cold start problem, and new clothes can be added to the recommendation list faster through the visual information. The addition of temporal information enables ClothNet sharply capturing the impact of seasonal and time changes on user preferences. However, because RNN and CNN have the disadvantage of requiring a large amount of data, combining RNN and CNN will make the model more difficult to converge, so we have adopted the LearningToRank training mode and obtained good results.
