Item The theoretical model for realization of an all-fiber, polarization independent Group Velocity Dispersion (GVD) compensating module with transfer function given by Chebyshev polynomials of the second kind is proposed and investigated. The proposed realization of the GVD compensating module comprises of Mach-Zender interferometers formed by single mode fiber optic directional couplers. The realization of GVD compensating modules using single mode fiber optic couplers as proposed in this paper is superior to an earlier realization of a similar GVD compensating module, which used bulk optic components such as TiO2 birefringent crystals, polarizers and ?/4 plates. © by Fachverlag Schiele & Schön 2005.(An all-fiber polarization independent GVD compensating module) Kumar, M.S.; Bhat, K.N.H.; Umesh, G.2005Item Voltage Profile Analysis in Smart Grids Using Online Estimation Algorithm(Hindawi Limited, 2022) Raghavendra, P.; Nuvvula, R.S.S.; P Kumar, P.P.; Gaonkar, D.N.; Sathoshakumar, A.; Khan, B.Voltage rise is the main obstacle to prevent the increase of distributed generators (DGs) in low-voltage (LV) distribution grids. In order to maintain the power quality and voltage levels within the tolerance limit, new measurement techniques and intelligent devices along with digital communications should be used for better utilization of the distribution grid. This paper presents a real-time sensor-based online voltage profile estimation technique and coordinated Volt/VAR control in smart grids with distributed generator interconnection. An algorithm is developed for voltage profile estimation using real-time sensor remote terminal unit (RTU) which takes into account topological characteristics, such as radial structure and high R/X ratio, of the smart distribution grid with DG systems. A coordinated operation of multiple generators with on-load tap changing (OLTC) transformer for Volt/VAR control in smart grids has been presented. Direct voltage sensitivity analysis is used to select a single DG system for reactive power support in multi-DG environment. The on-load tap changing transformer is employed for voltage regulation when generators' reactive power contributions are not enough to regulate the voltages. Simulation results show that the reported method is capable of maintaining voltage levels within the tolerance limit by coordinated operation of DG systems and on-load tap changing transformer. © 2022 P.
