An accurate and up-to-date model of a photovoltaic (PV) power plant is essential for its optimal operation and maintenance. However, such a model may not be easily available. This work introduces a novel approach for PV power plant mapping…
The Multi-voltage Threshold (MVT) method, which samples the signal by certain reference voltages, has been well developed as being adopted in pre-clinical and clinical digital positron emission tomography(PET) system. To improve its energy…
The mismatching phenomenon is one of the main issues in photovoltaic (PV) applications. It could reduce the generated power of a string when a PV panel has different performances from the other PV panels connected to the same string.…
Distributed Generation (DG) is an effective way of integrating renewable energy sources to conventional power grid, which improves the reliability and efficiency of power systems. Photovoltaic (PV) systems are ideal DGs thanks to their…

Concentrator Photovoltaic (CPV) systems use high efficiency multi-junction solar cells with efficiencies >40%, but the module efficiency is often much lower. The increased complexity of a CPV module, with optics, receiver and the tracker…
Photovoltaic Power Ramp-Rate Control (PRRC) constitutes a key ancillary service for future power systems. Although its implementation through the installation of storage systems or irradiance sensors has been widely investigated, fewer…
Transformerless grid-connected solar photovoltaic (PV) systems have given rise to more research and commercial interests due to their multiple merits, e.g., low leakage current and small size. In this paper, a model-predictive-control…

This paper studies $MPC^{5+}_v$, which is to cover as many vertices as possible in a given graph $G=(V,E)$ by vertex-disjoint $5^+$-paths (i.e., paths each with at least five vertices). $MPC^{5+}_v$ is NP-hard and admits an existing…
Use of lighter than air platforms (aerostats and airships) for reconnaissance and surveillance over long periods can be facilitated by generation of power on-board through solar photovoltaic arrays. Attempts to integrate solar photovoltaic…

In this thesis, the problem of fast, effective and low cost control of a Standalone Photovoltaic Distributed Generation (SPVDG) system is considered . On-site generation from these systems is more efficient when the power is transmitted via…
Positron Emission Particle Tracking (PEPT) is an imaging method that tracks individual radioactive particles. PEPT relies on the detection of back-to-back photon pairs emitted by positron annihilation. It requires an algorithm to locate the…
