  • Publication number: 20250175317
    Abstract: Embodiments herein relate to a phase interpolator for interpolating phases of input clock signals. In a series of interpolating cells, each cell receives clock signals having a phase offset between them and outputs an interpolated clock signal having a phase between the phases of the input clock signals. The received clock signals control the on and off time for first and second current sources of the interpolator cell. Additionally, a pulldown transistor is controlled by an internally-generated clock signal from a previous cell in the series, and each cell outputs an internally-generated clock signal that is fed to the next cell in the series to control its pulldown transistor. As a result, the duty cycle of the interpolated clock signal is made constant. A programmable common mode voltage removes any systematic direct current (DC) error in transferring the pulldown signal from one interpolator cell to another.

  • Patent number: 11119462
    Abstract: A power system energy management system with dynamic state estimation (DSE) is disclosed wherein system dynamic states are estimated using SCADA measurements, PMU measurements, signals of controllers, digital recorders, protection devices, and smart electronic devices. The DSE is solved first by Unscented Kalman Filter, and if the Unscented Kalman Filter is failed, weighted lease square is used to solve the DSE. If weighted lease square is failed, integration method is used to calculate the dynamic states. In another aspect, Unscented Kalman Filter, weighted lease square, and integration calculation are applied to solve the DSE by nodal parallel computing for each generation system.

  • Publication number: 20200341437
    Abstract: A power system energy management system with security constrained automatic generation control (SCAGC) is disclosed wherein the power generation output and branch power flow are constrained by security limit. A sub-optimization model is used to calculate SCAGC for each control area in parallel. Graph computing is applied to solve the SCAGC by simplex approach in hierarchical parallel and nodal parallel. The SCAGC is solved heuristically first by combining the equal incremental fuel cost ratio and generation shift factor, and if the heuristics do not converge, a simplex method is used to solve the SCAGC.
