Power-line communications (PLC) are becoming a key component in home networking, because they provide easy and high-throughput connectivity. The dominant MAC protocol for high data-rate PLC, the IEEE 1901, employs a CSMA/CA mechanism similar to the backoff ...
Within the context of time dissemination techniques for power systems applications, the paper discusses the use of the White Rabbit (WR) protocol for synchrophasor networks. Specifically, the paper presents a Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU) integrating the W ...

The paper discusses the influence of the time synchronization technique on the synchrophasor estimation accuracy in modern Phasor Measurement Units (PMU). Specifically, we make reference to Global Positioning System (GPS), Precision Time Protocol (PTP) and ...

We consider an adaptive network made of interconnected agents engaged in a binary decision task. It is assumed that the agents cannot deliver full-precision messages to their neighbors, but only binary messages. For this scenario, a modified version of the ...

This paper investigates the relations between three different properties, which are of importance in optimal control problems: dissipativity of the underlying dynamics with respect to a specific supply rate, optimal operation at steady state, and the turnp ...
The design phase of a modular multilevel converter (MMC) needs to be supported by suitable tools for the submodule loss evaluation. This paper proposes a fast MMC cell loss calculation based on the virtual submodule (VSM) concept. Compared to other propose ...
We report on the experimental observation of extreme laser spectral broadening and a change in optical transmission in gallium phosphite induced by 25 MV/cm terahertz (THz) single-cycle internal field. Such intense THz radiation leads to twofold transient ...
Within the context of time dissemination techniques for power systems applications, the paper illustrates the use of the White Rabbit (WR) technology with respect to its integration in Phasor Measurement Units (PMUs) networks. In particular, the paper refe ...
Perturbations to an ecosystem's steady state can trigger transient responses of great ecological relevance. Asymptotic stability determines whether a generic perturbation will fade out in the long run, but falls short of characterizing the dynamics imme ...
