In many applications of wireless sensor networks, certain quality of end-to-end parameters is needed. Due to this requirement, supporting quality of service (QoS) in this kind of networks is of great importance. In recent years, multi-path routing technique is proposed as an effective approach to provide QoS. Utilizing multiple paths between senders and receivers, multi-path […]
This paper presents determination of optimum size and location of distributed generators (DGs) for reliability improvement of distribution systems in the presence of time varying loads using Genetic Algorithm (GA). The main innovation of this paper is considering of annual load duration curve for determination of size and location of DGs for reliability improvement. For […]
Taking the advantages of alternative energy sources is currently a trending concept in the field of energy management. Meanwhile, microgrids and hybrid energy systems are of great importance due to their numerous benefits for both consumers and utility. This paper presents technical feasibility study of a hybrid energy system, including renewable and non-renewable resources and […]
due to the importance of providing reliable electricity for consumers in today’s power networks, the need for studies in the field of power systems reliability is feeling increasingly considering inherent uncertainties of renewable sources. Therefore, the main challenge of this study is to provide an efficient technique for evaluating reliability of power systems considering economic […]
The integration of Distributed Energy Resources (DER) in power systems can provide the opportunity to supply electricity to customers more efficiently and effectively. The DER includes Distributed Generation (DG) and Demand Side Management (DSM). In a smart grid incorporating automated control and distributed energy systems an effective DSM can alleviate the peak load and shift […]
In today’s society, the importance of creating highly reliable distribution networks cannot be overstated. Utilities face challenges in planning and developing these systems effectively, aiming to decrease costs and meet consumer demands. This research proposes a coordinated architecture that focuses on the integration of a Demand Response Program (DRP) to improve the reliability of power […]
