Design and implementation of a 15kV sub-nanosecond pulse generator using Trigatron type spark gap as a switch. Straightforward and compact trigger generator using pulse shaping network which produces a trigger pulse of sub-nanosecond rise time. A pulse power system requires delivering a high voltage, high coulomb in short rise time. This is achieved by using pulse shaping network comprises of parallel...
DC to DC converters are extensively used for the transforming DC voltage from one voltage level to another. Buck converter is one of a type which is used to lower the level of DC voltage. Various control strategies have been proposed in the past for performance improvement of DC to DC Buck converter. The work presented in this paper is based on Fast Terminal Sliding Mode control, which combines the...
This paper presents a variant of the cyclic pursuit strategy that can be used for target tracking applications. Cyclic pursuit has been extensively used in multi-agent systems for a variety of applications. In order to monitor a target point or to track a slowly moving vehicle, we propose to use a group of non-holonomic vehicles. At equilibrium, the vehicles form a rigid polygonal around the target...
Target centric deviated cyclic pursuit is a variant of the deviated cyclic pursuit strategy designed to track a target. Deviated cyclic pursuit has more flexibility as compared to the classical cyclic pursuit laws. In this work, we obtain a scalable formation of the UAVs around the target. The formation is scaled in a decentralized manner by changing a parameter of any of the vehicles. The strategy...
Decentralised strategies for target tracking has been studied extensively in the literature. In this paper, we present a strategy which gives the flexibility to change formation while the UAVs are executing a mission. A target is assumed to be enclosed if the UAVs encircle the target at a given radius while being uniformly distributed around it. If we want to close on to the target or if we want to...
