Attitude and position control of flapping-wing micro aerial vehicles
(2018)Compared with the fixed-wing and rotor aircraft, the flapping-wing micro aerial vehicle is of great interest to many communities because of its high efficiency and flexible maneuverability. However, issues such as ... -
Epitaxial growth of p-type doped III-V nitride semiconductor on sapphire substrate using remote plasma metal organic chemical vapor deposition
(2019)Lakehead University Remote Plasma-enhanced Metal Organic Chemical Vapour Deposition (RP-MOCVD) is used to grow III-V nitride semiconductor material. RP-MOCVD use nitrogen plasma as a nitrogen source along with group III ... -
Low-power multi-band injection-locked wireless receiver
(2019)The demand for low-power high-performance wireless receivers has dramatically in- creased with the emerging deployment of wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Among the demodulation schemes, non-coherent receivers consume ... -
A mechanism for simplified scanner control with application to MRI-guided interventions
(2016)Magnetic Resonance Image (MRI)-guided interventions involving percutaneous biopsies of lesions, or trajectory alignment with prospective stereotaxy are conducted in real time using rapid image acquisition. A mechanism ... -
Optimum switch sizing for class DE amplifier
(2018)Recently, integrated class DE ampli fiers without matching networks have been proposed as a compact solution to drive a multi-element piezoelectric ultrasound transducer array for high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ... -
Particle swarm optimization based adaptive neuro-fuzzy interference system for MPPT control of a three phase grid connected photovoltaic system
(2019)There is a significant demand for renewable energy systems to ensure sustainable and environmentally friendly living. Shifting from the use of fossil fuels to renewable energy sources will decrease both the reliance on ... -
Position control of a quadrotor UAV using stereo computer vision
(2019)Quadrotors are a recent popular consumer product, prompting further developments with regards to combining attitude and position control for such unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). The quadrotor’s attitude (orientation) ... -
Quadrotor altitude and attitude control with neural network
(2017)Over the years, the controller design for an unmanned aerial vehicle has been attracting considerable amount of attentions and interests. In this thesis, a quadcopter has been studied intensively, and an adaptive ... -
Robust control techniques for DFIG driven WECS with improved efficiency
(2019)Wind energy has emerged as one of the fastest growing renewable energy sources since mid-80‘s due to its low cost and environmentally friendly nature compared to conventional fossil fuel based power generation. Current ... -
Towards auction mechanisms for peer-to-peer energy trading in smart grids
(2019)The conventional energy grid is being replaced with the new emerging smart grid infras- tructure. This can be attributed to the fact that it only supports unidirectional energy ow, i.e., energy is transmitted from the ...
