A memory of the storage device includes a plurality of data structures each associated with a different submission queue. A controller of the storage device receives a first command for a fused operation from a submission queue, stores the first command in a data structure, receives a second command for the fused operation from the submission queue, determines whether the second command corresponds to the fused operation, stores the second command in the data structure in response to the determination, and performs the fused operation in response to storing the second command. As a result, fused command handling may be achieved with minimal impact to queue arbitration logic and command latency.

Abstract: A method and associated system provide grid-forming mode (GFM) control of an inverter-based renewable energy source having an asynchronous machine connected to a power grid. The method includes deriving a power error signal (PER) between a real power output (PB) from the renewable energy source and a power reference (PREF) representing a desired power output of the renewable energy source.

A power angle compensation (??) is applied to the phase shift angle (?IT) from the inertial power regulator to dampen power oscillations and load fluctuations during transient power events.
