The filter-bank multi-carrier (FBMC) with offset quadrature amplitude modulation (OQAM) is considered a promising waveform for 5G due to its favorable frequency-time localization and efficient spectrum utilization. However, the specific overlapping structure and multi-carrier nature of FBMC-OQAM waveforms result in an exceptionally high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR). To address this issue, th...Show More
This paper presents a probabilistic approach in sizing distribution transformers capacity supplying residential, commercial, and combination of residential and commercial loads. Load data recorded from the three categories of aggregate loads are used to establish probability distribution curves based on the goodness-of-fit test. The gamma distribution is found to be the best fit among all probabil...Show More
The effect of first return stroke current distributions of tropical and temperate regions on the assessment of backflashover occurrence of transmission lines is analyzed by means of computational simulations.

Increased adoption of Electric Vehicles (EVs) result in appearance of high energy demand clusters in a distribution network. This has adverse effects on the distribution network resulting in voltage drop, increased losses, overloading of distribution feeders, transformers, and critical components. This results in degradation of power quality and network stability. In this work, a modified IEEE 13 ...Show More
An electrical sector is concerned about large-scale electric vehicle adoption and energy needs. EV demand and home charging have an impact on distribution. Level 1 chargers are primarily used to charge EVs at home. Low charging times and prices encourage level 1 users to depart. Increased charging requirements may result in under voltages, energy losses, and uneven power distribution across phases...Show More

Global warming leads the world to think of a different way of transportation: avoiding internal combustion engines and electrifying the transportation sector. With a high penetration of electric vehicle (EV) charging stations on an existing power distribution network, the impact may be consistent. The loads of the fast-charging stations would potentially result in increased peak load demand, reduc...Show More
Selected mapping (SLM) techniques have been used to reduce the high peak-to-average power ratio (PAR) in Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) systems. The capacity of PAR reduction can be increased by improving the PAR statistics at the cost of complexity of the OFDM transmitter. However, it is difficult to clarify the performance degradation in the presence of nonlinearities, such as...Show More

Filter Bank Multicarrier (FBMC) is an efficient multicarrier modulation characterized by its good spectral efficiency and low out of band leakage. Nevertheless, FBMC signals suffer from the high Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR). This leads nonlinear devices such as Power Amplifiers, when used, to operate in their saturation region which may severely impair system performance. In this paper, we p...Show More
In this paper we study some statistical properties of a multicarrier signals using the order statistics. Analytical expressions for the probability density function of different order statistics of a sampled OFDM system is presented. We then find the amount of power which is clipped from each order of the signal when the signal is passed through a clipping nonlinearity. This is used to represent t...Show More

In India, the power distribution is the weakest and the most crucial segment in the power system. The major problem faced by the power distribution sector is the management of peak load. Peak load condition leads to electric power interruption which brings down the consumer satisfaction. The proposed work focuses on prevention of peak load on urban distribution feeder. This situation may occur for...Show More
It is well known that orthogonal-frequency-division-multiplexing (OFDM) transmission is spectrally efficient but power inefficient due to the large peak-to-average power ratio (PAR) of the OFDM signal.

Load flow studies are essential for planning and operating electric power systems. However, the accuracy of these studies can be affected by a number of factors, including the ambient conductor temperature. During extreme winter peaks, the ambient conductor temperature can drop significantly below 25°C, the default value used in many load flow software programs. This can lead to inaccurate results...Show More
