Etude et conception de CAN haute résolution pour le domaine de l’imagerie / Design of high resolution analog-to-digital converters for CMOS image sensorsBisiaux, Pierre 11 April 2018 (has links)
Cette thèse porte sur la conception et la réalisation de convertisseurs analogique/numérique (ADC) haute résolution dans le domaine de l’imagerie spatiale en technologie 0.18 μm.Un imageur CMOS est un système destiné à acquérir des informations lumineuses et les convertir en données numériques afin que cellesci soient traitées. Ce système est composé d’une matrice de pixels, d’ADC, de registres et de blocs de signaux de commande afin de rendre toutes ces données disponibles. Avec la taille grandissante de la matrice de pixels et la cadence d’image par seconde croissante, l’ADC doit réaliser de plus en plus de conversions en moins de temps et est donc devenu l’un des « bottleneck » les plus importants dans les systèmes d’imagerie. Une solution adaptée a donc été le développement d’ADC colonne situé en bout de colonnes de pixels afin de réaliser des conversions en parallèles et c’est ce sujet qui va m’intéresser.Dans une première partie, n’ayant pas de contraintes sur l’architecture d’ADC à utiliser, une étude de l’état de l’art des ADC pour l’imagerie est réalisée ainsi que les spécifications visées pour notre application. Une architecture sigma-delta incrémental à deux étapes semble la plus prometteuse et va être développée. Ensuite, une étude théorique de l’ADC choisi, et plus particulièrement du modulateur sigma-delta à utiliser est effectuée, afin notamment de déterminer l’ordre de ce modulateur, mais également le nombre de cycles de cette conversions. Une fois les paramètres de modélisation définis, un schéma transistor est réalisé au niveau transistor, avec une particularité au niveau de l’amplificateur utilisé. En effet, afin de gagner en surface qui est l’un des points importants dans les systèmes d’imagerie, un inverseur est utilisé. Une étude de cette inverseur, afin de choisir le plus adapté à notre besoin est effectuée avec des simulations montecarlo et aux « corners ». Pour finir, un routage global de l’ADC est réalisé afin de pouvoir comparer ces performances à l’état de l’art. / This thesis deals with the conception and design of high resolution analog-to-digital converters (ADC) for CMOS image sensor (CIS) applications with the 0.18 μm technology. A CIS is a system able to convert light to digital data to be processed. This system includes a pixel array, ADCs, registers and a set of clocks to acquire and transport the data. At the beginning, a single ADC was used for the whole matrix of pixels, converting the pixel value in a sequential way. With the growing size of the pixel array and the increasing frame rate, the ADC became one of the bottleneck of these system. A solution was found to use column ADC, located at the bottom of each column in order to parallelize the conversions. These column ADC are going to be my point of interest in this thesis.First of all, a state of the art of the ADC for CIS is realized in order to determine the best architecture to use. A two-step incremental sigma-delta is chosen and investigated. A theoretical analysis is done, especially on the modulator in order to determine the order of this modulator and the oversampling ratio of the conversion. Then a schematic is realized, with a special feature on the amplifier. Indeed, an inverter is used as amplifier in order to reduce the size of the ADC. A montecarlo and corner studies are then realized on the ADC, a layout is proposed and the ADC is compared to the state of the art of the ADC for CIS.

Protection and Cybersecurity in Inverter-Based MicrogridsMohammadhassani, Ardavan 06 July 2023 (has links)
Developing microgrids is an attractive solution for integrating inverter-based resources (IBR) in the power system. Distributed control is a potential strategy for controlling such microgrids. However, a major challenge toward the proliferation of distributed control is cybersecurity. A false data injection (FDI) attack on a microgrid using distributed control can have severe impacts on the operation of the microgrid. Simultaneously, a microgrid needs to be protected from system faults to ensure the safe and reliable delivery of power to loads. However, the irregular response of IBRs to faults makes microgrid protection very challenging. A microgrid is also susceptible to faults inside IBR converters. These faults can remain undetected for a long time and shutdown an IBR. This dissertation first proposes a method that reconstructs communicated signals using their autocorrelation and crosscorrelation measurements to make distributed control more resilient against FDI attacks. Next, this dissertation proposes a protection scheme that works by classifying measured harmonic currents using support vector machines. Finally, this dissertation proposes a protection and fault-tolerant control strategy to diagnose and clear faults that are internal to IBRs. The proposed strategies are verified using time-domain simulation case studies using the PSCAD/EMTDC software package. / Doctor of Philosophy / Renewable energy resources, such as wind, solar, and geothermal, are interfaced with the grid using DC-to-AC power electronic converters, popularly known as inverters. These “inverterbased resources (IBR)” are mostly distributed and located near consumers. During outages, IBRs can be used to provide power to customers. This gives developers the idea of integrating IBRs in microgrids. A microgrid is a miniature grid that consists of IBRs and customers. A microgrid is normally connected to the grid but can disconnect from the grid and operate on its own. To run efficiently, a microgrid uses fast and reliable communication between IBRs to create a high-performance distributed control strategy. However, this creates cybersecurity concerns for microgrids. This dissertation proposes a cybersecure distributed control strategy to make sure microgrids can keep their advantages. This dissertation also proposes a protection method that relies on machine learning to clear short circuits in the microgrid. Finally, this dissertation proposes a strategy to diagnose failures inside IBRs and ride through them. The proposed solutions are verified using the industry-grade simulation software PSCAD/EMTDC.

Fault current injection from Inverter Based Generation in the distribution grid : A case study of distribution grid on the Swedish island of GotlandMansori, Farsad January 2022 (has links)
This work proposes recommendations for new guidelines for fault current injection on a distribution grid. These guidelines will help improve the transition towards renewable electrical energy generation. The grid-integration of inverter-based distributed generations (IBDGs) into the distribution grid changes the topology of a conventional grid with one-way power flow to a grid with multi-way power flow. This thesis investigates the impact of fault current injection on a distribution grid, if the limitations in the fault current injection of IBDGs affect the reliable function of the protection system and if there is a preferable type of current control to be prioritised. This investigation was carried out through a literature review and transient state simulations on a model grid in PSCAD. The grid is based on a real radial distribution grid on the Swedish island of Gotland, where a Type III wind turbine generator (WTG) is connected. The limitation on fault current injection by the wind turbine, the location and type of fault in the grid, can affect the reliable function of the protection system. The control system inside a type III WTG affects its fault current injection that impacts fault detection by the protection system. This thesis emphasizes the need for a guideline and requirement on the WTG control system for fault current injection. Prioritising reactive current control (q-axis) seems to be preferable and should become the standard for fault current injection in type III wind turbine generators in this distribution grid, according to this study. Furthermore, the need for more investigation for different types of IBDGs with different control strategies is highlighted in this work. / Detta arbete föreslår rekommendationer för nya riktlinjer för felströmsinjektering i ett distributionsnät. Dessa rekommendationer kommer bidra till att förbättra omställningen till förnyelsebar elgenerering. Integreringen av omriktarbaserade distributionsgeneratorer (IBDG) i distributionsnätet förändrar topologin i ett konventionellt nät med ett enkelriktat effektflöde till ett flervägsriktat effektflöde. Detta examensarbete undersöker påverkan av felströmsinjektering i ett distributionsnät, om begränsningarna i felströmsinjekteringen hos IBDG:er påverkar reläskydds pålitliga funktionalitet och om det finns en typ av kontrollström som föredras och bör prioriteras. Denna undersökning genomfördes genom en litteraturstudie och transienta simuleringar i ett exempelnät i PSCAD. Nätet är baserat på ett verkligt radialdistributionsnät från Gotland, där ett Typ III vindkraftverk (WTG) är anslutet. Begränsningen i felströmsinjektering hos vindkraftverket, platsen för och typen av fel i nätet kan påverka den pålitliga funktionaliteten hos reläskydd. Kontrollsystemet inuti ett Typ III WTG påverkar dess felströmsinjektering som påverkar feldetekteringen i reläskyddet. Detta examensarbete betonar vikten av riktlinjer och krav på WTG kontollsystem för felströmsinjektering. Prioritering av reaktiv kontrollström (q-axis) verkar vara fördelaktigt och bör bli standard för felströminjektering i Typ III WTG i detta distributionsnät, enligt detta arbete. Dessutom påtalas behovet av att ytterligare undersöka olika typer av IBDG:er med olika kontrollstrategier i detta arbete.

Protection and Cybersecurity of Inverter-Based ResourcesAlexander, Brady Steven 14 May 2024 (has links)
Traditionally, power system protection describes detecting, clearing, and locating faults in the power system. Traditional methods for detecting and locating faults may not be sufficient for inverter-based resources (IBR) as the fault response of an IBR differs from the response of a synchronous generator. As the composition of the power grid continues to evolve to integrate more IBRs that employ communication-based control algorithms; the power system is also exposed to cyberattacks. Undetected cyberattacks can disrupt normal system operation causing local outages. Therefore, power system protection must evolve with the changes in the grid to not only detect, locate, and clear faults with IBR generation but also detect and mitigate cyberattacks on IBR controllers. This thesis proposes methods for protecting an IBR-based transmission system from: (i) GPS spoofing cyberattacks on a power sharing controller; (ii) open-circuit faults. The GPS spoofing detection algorithm is a decision tree that enables either the proposed state observer--based mitigation technique or the proposed long short-term memory (LSTM)-based mitigation algorithm. The proposed logic for detecting open-circuit faults addresses each subcategory of open-circuit faults: breaker malfunctions, broken conductors, and series arc faults. PSCAD/EMTDC simulations are performed to test the effectiveness of the proposed methods. / Master of Science / The desire to reduce carbon emissions from electric power generation is resulting in the simultaneous retirement of fossil-fuel-burning electric power generation and increase in the number of renewable energy resources. These renewable energy resources, or inverter-based resources, respond differently to disturbances than traditional generators, and; therefore, require the development of new strategies to improve the disturbance response of an inverter-based resource. Disturbances in the power system can be divided into two types: (i) normal disturbances; (ii) abnormal disturbances. The response of an IBR to normal disturbances is improved with reliable control, further improved with communication, which ensures the stable operation of the power system. The abnormal conditions can also be split into two categories: (i) cyberattacks; (ii) faults. A cyberattack is when an adversary gains access a system with the goal of causing harm. In IBRs, cyberattacks can degrade power quality and lead to local outages. Faults are events that cause a change in the normal current flow in the power system. Undetected faults can cause local outages, lead to forest fires, and personnel injury; therefore, must be detected, located, can cleared in a timely manner. This work explores methods for detecting and mitigating cyberattacks and detecting faults in the presence of inverter-based resources.

Low frequency sinusoidal oscillator for impedance spectroscopyRevanna, Nagaraja 22 July 2014 (has links)
Impedance measurement as a function of frequency is being increasingly used for the detection of organic molecules. The main building block required for this is a sinusoidal oscillator whose frequency can be varied in the range of a few KHz to tens of MHz. The thesis describes the design of Integrated CMOS Oscillator Circuits. There are 2 designs presented in the thesis, one of which is based on the Wien Bridge and the other, on an LC architecture. They provide both in-phase and quadrature outputs needed for the determination of the real and imaginary parts of complex impedances. The inductor in the LC tank is realized by gyration of a capacitor. This needs two variable transconductance elements. Linear transconductance elements with decoupled transconductance gm and output conductance go is presented. A novel circuit for detecting and controlling the amplitude of oscillation is described. A current mode technique to scale the capacitance is also discussed. Since this oscillator is used in an inexpensive hand-held instrument, both power consumption and chip area must be minimized. A comparison between the Wien Bridge and the LC tank based oscillator is presented. Simulation results pertaining to the design of the different blocks of the circuit are made available. / text

Transient And Distributed Algorithms To Improve Islanding Detection Capability Of Inverter Based Distributed GenerationAl Hosani, Mohamed 01 January 2013 (has links)
Recently, a lot of research work has been dedicated toward enhancing performance, reliability and integrity of distributed energy resources that are integrated into distribution networks. The problem of islanding detection and islanding prevention (i.e. anti-islanding) has stimulated a lot of research due to its role in severely compromising the safety of working personnel and resulting in equipment damages. Various Islanding Detection Methods (IDMs) have been developed within the last ten years in anticipation of the tremendous increase in the penetration of Distributed Generation (DG) in distribution system. This work proposes new IDMs that rely on transient and distributed behaviors to improve integrity and performance of DGs while maintaining multi-DG islanding detection capability. In this thesis, the following questions have been addressed: How to utilize the transient behavior arising from an islanding condition to improve detectability and robust performance of IDMs in a distributive manner? How to reduce the negative stability impact of the well-known Sandia Frequency Shift (SFS) IDM while maintaining its islanding detection capability? How to incorporate the perturbations provided by each of DGs in such a way that the negative interference of different IDMs is minimized without the need of any type of communication among the different DGs? It is shown that the proposed techniques are local, scalable and robust against different loading conditions and topology changes. Also, the proposed techniques can successfully distinguish an islanding condition from other disturbances that may occur in power system networks. This work improves the efficiency, reliability and safety of integrated DGs, which presents a necessary advance toward making electric power grids a smart grid.

Evaluation of Symmetrical Components Theory in Power Systems with Renewable SourcesDanylov, Daniil January 2021 (has links)
Rapidly growing Inverter- Based Resources (IBR) have different fault properties compared to Synchronous Generators (SG). Therefore, it is necessary to study the fault behavior of systems that contain different types of IBR and compare it to the conventional system responses in order to understand what steps should be taken to adapt conventional protection settings for new types of sources. For a two bus model, it is found out that sequence profiles in a system with one IBR are different from those observed in conventional system. Thermal and electrical limitations of the power electronics reduce the fault current from the IBR significantly, driving negative sequence current to small values compared to conventional sources. This is true for all studied types of IBR. Moreover, if IBR is connected to the grid through one line only, during Three Phase Fault (3hp) it is possible to lose synchronism with grid due to erroneous estimation of the grid angle through the Phase-Locked Loop (PLL). Verification of the obtained results is made through comparison to the Fault Recordings taken from the protection relays placed at substations. It is shown that for some faults simulation results can predict the behavior of symmetrical components in the network whereas for others they do not. To explain the latter behavior modifications to the sequence networks are proposed. / Snabbt växande inverterbaserade resurser (IBR) har olika felinmatningsegenskaper jämfört med synkrongeneratorer (SG). Därför är det nödvändigt att studera felbeteende hos system som innehåller olika typer av IBR och jämför det med konventionella källor för att kunna förstå vilka steg som ska göras för att anpassa konventionella skyddsinställningar för nya typer av källor. Under litteraturöversikten introduktion till det fast jordade systemet och dess speciella fall med isolerad transformatorjordning är klar. Kort introduktion till den studerade IBR och typer av simulerade fel görs också. För en tvåbussmodell har det visat sig att sekvensprofiler i ett system med en IBR skiljer sig från de som observerats i konventionella system. Termisk och elektrisk begränsningar i kraftelektroniska komponenter minskar felströmmen från IBR avsevärt och driver negativ sekvensström till små värden jämfört med konventionella källor. Detta gäller för alla studerade typer av IBR. Dessutom, om IBR är ansluten till nätet endast genom en linje, är det möjligt under trefasfel (3hp) att tappa synkronisering med nätet på grund av felaktig uppskattning av fasvinkeln genom styrsystemets faslåst slinga (PLL). Verifiering av de erhållna resultaten görs genom jämförelse med Fel Inspelningar från reläet placerade på transformatorstationer. Det visas att för vissa fel simuleringsresultat kan förutsäga symmetriska komponenters beteende i nätverket medan andra inte gör det. För att förklara de senare beteendena föreslås modifieringar i sekvensnätverket.
