Abstract:

Wireless networks of sensors and smart devices (WSN) are an extremely interesting topic, at the confluence of engineering fields with enormous impact on worldwide society: digital networks, wireless communications, and miniature embedded digital devices.

Aware of the severe requirements and challenges raised by current applications in this area, we propose a new paradigm - Time and Energy Efficiency (T: or TEE). The goal of the project is to develop an integrated real-time and energy efficient inter-operation framework for networks of smart sensors and devices - TEEFIOS.

The main proposed objectives focus on three distinct layers: (a) T:Node, a hardware-software environment and methodology for designing and assessing real-time behavior and efficient energy consumption of embedded devices, (b) T:YNet, a system for the development and analysis of TEE communication in wireless ad-hoc networks, and (c) T:PIlot, a methodology for the power management of the entire network. An integrated set of tools, benchmarks and databases will also be created to help advanced developers and researchers in the WSN area apply the TEE paradigm to applications with high impact. All the results will be validated using real-life case studies.

Existing resources include a postdoc and PhD students with direct interest in these fields, balanced by senior researchers with high expertise and international visibility, all supported by a well equipped environment - the DSPLabs.

Abstract:

Power systems are facing major challenges nowadays. Power electronics technologies and microprocessor control systems improved the performances of the equipment that uses them. Their features generate a double dependency: on one hand, the new installations became highly sensitive to power supply quality and on the other hand, their functioning principle determines the change of this quality.

The research in the field of numerical algorithms development and implementation for power quality (CEE) and the disturbance decrease/limitation becomes more attractive and many producers integrate the monitoring functions in their products. A CEE monitoring system must possess two qualities: real time measurement of the disturbed network power parameters and calculation of quality indices and power components according to the suitable definitions. It is a fact that the Fourier technique is used to define a large number of power components (Standard IEEE 1459-2000). The representation given by the Fourier technique in non-sinusoidal and non-linear environments is not sufficient. The wavelet transform can solve the loss of time information problem. Recently, the wavelet transform is used to define power components and quality indices in time-frequency domain and to spot network deviations.

The general objective of the project consists in the improvement of technological competence and the promotion of power information and technologies transfer using long-lasting power technologies and systems in reference to the improvement of power conversion equipment and systems competitivity. The derived objectives: 1. Increase the CDI sector capacity regarding the knowledge sustaining of society and economy; 2. Increase the technological competence and the promotion of power information and technologies transfer taking into account quality and power supply criteria and durable development principle; 3. Design environment friendly products, systems and technologies; 4. Initiate a STREP proposal to participate in Program Frame 7 and/or other research European and international programs. The projest is achieved by a group of CNCSIS approved research centres, universities (Suceava, Iasi, Timisoara), a reserch institute (ICPE SA) and an IMM economic agent (S.C. Technosoft International SRL). All parteners are doing research work in power quality, power efficiency increase and focus on industrial consumers power loss reduction. The dissemination of the project results consists of: (1) an EPO patent proposal, (2) publish at least 3/8 papers in ISI journals / journals indexed in international databases , (3) participate in international conferences and symposiums with at least 10 papers, (4) create a monography and mention the contribution of research parteners in CEE monitoring systems, (5) initiate a PC7 participation proposal regarding the CEE and power converters improvement. We intend to encourage and actively involve the doctoral students in the project activities since at least 30% of the project participants and beneficiaries are under 35 years old. The theoretical concepts that we proposed in the project have been presented in papers that are published or accepted to be published in ISI and BDI indexed journals. Our proposal fits in Research Direction 2: Energy, 2.1. Durable power systems and technologies; power security, 2.1.3. Power efficiency increase in the whole power distribution system with special attention payed to power loss reduction in public and residential buildings and industrial consumers.

We consider the project theme to be of great novelty and in accordance with the international trends and also able to stimulate the CEE activity in our country.
