  • Optimized control approach for bidirectional wireless power transfer systems with vehicle-to-grid integration
    Mareedu Hari Venkatesh, Malligunta Kiran Kumar, Chandra Babu Guttikonda, Thalanki Venkata Sai Kalyani, Kambhampati Venkata Govardhan Rao
    Bulletin of Electrical Engineering and Informatics, 2026
    The transition to electric vehicles (EVs) has intensified the need for efficient vehicle-to-grid (V2G) and grid-to-vehicle (G2V) systems. Bidirectional wireless power transfer (BWPT) presents a seamless and intelligent approach to energy exchange, particularly under dynamic tariff and grid demand conditions. This study aims to model and simulate a Python-based rule-driven BWPT system to evaluate energy efficiency and economic performance in V2G/G2V applications. A synthetic dataset representing grid demand and time-of-use (TOU) pricing over seven days was used to simulate real-world operating conditions. The model incorporates state-of-charge (SoC) dynamics, bidirectional power control logic, and profit calculation using a 15-minute resolution over 672 time steps. The simulation achieved a total energy exchange of 122.8 kWh and a cumulative net profit of ?536.67, with daily profits averaging ?76.6. SoC levels were effectively maintained between 20% and 90%, and power flows adapted accurately to tariff variations. The study confirms the feasibility of a lightweight, reproducible BWPT model capable of delivering optimized energy management and economic returns. The simulation approach offers strong potential for academic, research, and pre-deployment evaluation of intelligent charging systems.

    Bulletin of Electrical Engineering and Informatics, 2026
    As autonomous electric vehicles (AEVs) continue to evolve, the demand for robust obstacle detection systems becomes increasingly critical to ensure safety, efficiency, and adaptability in real-world environments. This review presents a comprehensive synthesis of recent advancements in sensor fusion technologies, emphasizing the integration of light detection and ranging(LiDAR), radar, and camera-based vision systems. It highlights the role of deep learning architectures—such as you only look once (YOLO), convolutional neural networks (CNNs), and related neural models—in enhancing object detection, classification, and segmentation. The review categorizes key research themes, including fusion methodologies, real-time processing, edge computing, performance in adverse weather conditions, pedestrian detection, and sensor calibration. Special attention is paid to techniques that merge spatial, velocity, and semantic data to mitigate individual sensor limitations. The paper also discusses hardware-accelerated solutions for low-latency inference and the use of lightweight models for deployment on edge devices. Benchmark datasets, of vehicle-to-everything (V2X) and internet of thing (IoT)-based infrastructure, and calibration challenges are examined for their roles in ensuring accuracy and reliability. Drawing from over 100 referenced studies, this work serves as a foundational resource for researchers and developers aiming to advance artificial intelligence (AI)-based sensor fusion systems in next-generation AEVs.

    The Leakage Inductance and Series Capacitance (LLSC) resonant converters are exhaustively employed in a wide assortment of industries involving consumer electronics due to their benefits of good efficiency, higher power density, immunity to electromagnetic interference, low EMI and harmonic distortion, wide production extends, voltage stress is lowered and frequency at high operating characteristic. Three of the most prominent converters with LLSC topologies are explored along with thorough analyses of their merits and disadvantages. The background of LLSC resonant converters are also discussed. A significant amount of research is also being done regarding large - scale production of LLSC resonant converters, namely in order to charge electric automobiles (EVs), solar systems, LED lighting drivers, and power supply for LCD TVs. Eventually, the growth of LLSC resonant converter is explained.

    Proceedings of 5th International Conference on Trends in Material Science and Inventive Materials Ictmim 2025, 2025
    This paper investigates the impact of high ambient temperatures on LED-based industrial lighting systems and proposes an optimized thermal management approach to enhance efficiency, longevity, and performance. Industrial environments such as thermal power plants, metal manufacturing units, and pumping stations experience extreme temperatures exceeding 60°C, which significantly affect LED luminous output, efficiency, and durability. The study analyzes the degradation of LED performance due to thermal stress and evaluates heat dissipation techniques, including heat pipe integration and optimized driver designs. Experimental results demonstrate that proper thermal management can mitigate efficiency losses, extend LED lifespan, and improve overall energy savings. The findings provide a framework for designing reliable high-temperature LED lighting systems for industrial applications.
  • Resilience to Flux Walking in Isolated Converters: A Comparative Study of Voltage Doubler and Diode Bridge
    Chandra Babu Guttikonda, Pinni Srinivasa Varma, Malligunta Kiran Kumar, Kambhampati Venkata Govardhan Rao, Nittala Ramchandra, et al.
    1st International Conference on Sustainable Energy Technologies and Computational Intelligence Towards Sustainable Energy Transition Setcom 2025, 2025
    The effectiveness of a current-fed full-bridge boost converter, a voltage doubler (VD), and a diode bridge (DB) secondary circuit configuration are contrasted in this research. It assesses the consequences of flux walking and switching asymmetry. Uneven magnetisation of the transformer core, or switching asymmetry, causes flux walking and, in turn, can reduce converter performance. This is a typical problem in power electronics. This study shows that switching asymmetry has a major impact on converter efficiency, especially when the DB configuration is used, which is vulnerable to imbalanced magnetic flux and causes notable decreases in efficiency. Alternatively, when it comes to switching asymmetry, the VD arrangement is more resilient. Maintaining more stable converter performance in asymmetric switching conditions is helped by its inherent structure, which helps combat the impacts of flux walking. To increase efficiency and reliability, especially under less-than-ideal operating conditions, the results show that choosing the right secondary configuration is crucial in current-fed isolated converters.

    In this paper, the significant effect of excitation coupling with multi area hybrid system (MAHS) for load frequency control (LFC) is analyzed. Initially, MAHS is considered with excitation coupling or automatic voltage regulator (AVR) for analysis purposes. Area-1 of MAHS system is loaded with 10%SLP under the supervision of water cycle algorithm (WCA) based PIDD controller with respect to the minimization of integral square error (ISE) function. By contrasting PI/PID, the effectiveness of PIDD is showcased. To further illustrate its impact, dynamical analysis is performed on the LFC of MAHS for instances of with and without taking the coupling AVR into account.
