Please join us for an insightful talk by Dr.Graham Dudgeon, Consultant Product Manager for Electrical Technology at MathWorks, on modeling and simulation of microgrids. In this talk, Graham will discuss how modeling and simulation can support the development of microgrid systems from early-stage feasibility through to in-service operation. Through a worked example of a representative microgrid, Graham will cover the following areas, - Techno-economic analysis and optimization. - Aligning model fidelity with a given engineering task. - Incremental creation, test and integration of components into a larger system. - Real-time testing. - Deploying algorithms and simulation models into edge devices and cloud platforms. Looking forward to seeing you all for the session! Speaker(s): Dr.Graham, Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/451759

This is the second part of a two-part series on Low Earth Orbit Satellite Communications. In Part 1, we discussed Satellite orbits, orbital mechanics, satellite coverage footprints on Earth and the analysis of the communications link between the Satellite and the Ground station. In Part 2, we will continue this topic: - Working out some examples of communications link analysis, - Discussing vector modulation, a technique that maximizes data rates and minimizes Bit Error Rates (BER), - Discussing current LEO satellite Systems, - Looking at future LEO Satellite systems and cell phone communication directly with LEO satellites, - Discussing the trade-offs of currently proposed higher frequency LEO Satellite constellations.
