In particular\, the smart grid\, when fully deployed\, will facilitate the (i) increased use of digital information and measurement\, control & protection technologies\, (ii) deployment and grid-integration of distributed energy resources (DERs)\, (iii) operation of demand response and energy efficiency programs\, and (iv) integration of consumer-owned smart devices and technologies. Different non-linear controls\, such as back-stepping control\, feedback linearization\, model predictive control\, and sliding mode control are applied to control DERs\, and their grid integration. Another control technique gaining application in the smart grid space is based on multi-agent systems (MAS) which provide autonomy\, reactivity and proactivity. As speedy communication facilities\, such as fiber-optics\, microwave\, GSM/GPRS\, 4G/5G are becoming the integral parts of the functioning smart grid\, the integration of MAS in smart grid applications is becoming simple and feasible. This lecture focuses on the measurement & control issues of the smart grid and how MAS can provide an efficient tool to address such issues. In addition\, an overview of the related challenges and opportunities for energy efficient building operation and management with deployment experience in the US will be provided. \nRegister: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/236481 \nBiography: Prof. Saifur Rahman is the founding director of the Advanced Research Institute (www.ari.vt.edu) at Virginia Tech\, USA where he is the Joseph R. Loring professor of electrical and computer engineering. He also directs the Center for Energy and the Global Environment (www.ceage.vt.edu). He is a Life Fellow of the IEEE and an IEEE Millennium Medal winner. He was the founding editor-in-chief of the IEEE Electrification Magazine and the IEEE Transactions on Sustainable Energy.

SUMMARY:Control of Power Electronics Systems Using Predictive Switching Sequences and Switching Transitions
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, October 12th 2018\, Sudip K. Mazumder of University of Illinois at Chicago\, will be presenting “Control of Power Electronics Systems Using Predictive Switching Sequences and Switching Transitions”. \nDay & Time: Friday October 12th\, 2018\n4:00 p.m. ‐ 5:00 p.m. \nSpeaker: Sudip K. Mazumder\nProfessor at the University of Illinois at Chicago \nOrganizers: IEEE Toronto Power Electronics Chapter \nLocation: Room Number: BA 4287\nBuilding: Bahen Centre for Information Technology\nUniversity of Toronto 40 St. George Street\nToronto\, ON M5S2E4 \nContact: Mahdieh Taghizadeh \nRVSP: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/176071 \nAbstract: This presentation provides a fundamentally different perspective to the control of solid-state semiconductor-device-based switching power-electronic systems (PESs). It is based on controlling the time evolution of the feasible switching sequences and controlling the switching transitions of PESs. The former – that is\, the switching-sequence-based control (SBC) – yields rapid response under transient condition\, optimal equilibrium response\, and yields seamless transition between the two dynamical modes. Further\, by enabling integration of modulation and control\, SBC precludes the need for ad-hoc offline modulation synthesis. In other words\, an optimal switching sequence for a PES is generated dynamically without the need for prior determination of a modulation scheme (which generates a pre-determined switching sequence) as evident in most conventional approaches. This presentation will provide the mechanism to carry out SBC synthesis and how it leads to multi-scale optimality leading to enhanced PES performance. Subsequent to the outline of SBC\, the presentation will focus on switching-transition control (STC). The primary objective of STC is to demonstrate how key PES parameters including and stress\, switching loss\, electromagnetic noise emission can be controlled dynamically by modulating the dynamics of the power semiconductor devices. Both electrical and newly developed optical-control mechanisms to achieve STC will be briefly outlined. Finally\, envisioned mechanism for monolithic integration of SBC and STC will be illustrated. This presentation will demonstrate\, along with results\, multiple practical applications (currently of high priority in the power/energy space) where the radically new control concepts make a tangible and substantive difference. \nBiography: Sudip K.

SUMMARY:Convergence between Broadcast and Mobile Broadband
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, August 9th at 11:00 a.m.\, the IEEE Toronto Section\, Consumer Electronics Chapter invites you to the IEEE CESoc Distinguished Lecture on: “Convergence between Broadcast and Mobile Broadband” by Dr. Ulrich Reimers\, IEEE CESoc Renowned Distinguished Speaker\, and Professor Institut fuer Nachrichtentechnik (IfN)\, Technische Universitaet Braunschweig\, Germany. \nDay & Time: Thursday\, August 9\, 2018\n11:00 a.m. ‐ 12:00 p.m. \nSpeaker: Dr. Ulrich Reimers\nIEEE CESoc Renowned Distinguished Speaker\nProfessor Institut fuer Nachrichtentechnik (IfN)\, Technische Universitaet Braunschweig\, Germany \nLocation: 40 St George Street\nToronto\, Ontario\nCanada M5S 2E4\nBuilding: Bahen Centre for Information Technology\nRoom Number: BA7180 \nContact: Mahdieh Taghizadeh \nOrganizer: IEEE Toronto Section\, Consumer Electronics Chapter \nRVSP: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/174204 \nAbstract: The mobile industry has been testing the feasibility of evolved Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service (eMBMS)\, an LTE embedded broadcast approach to support a growing mobile video/TV consumption and the delivery of other highly popular data services. But\, eMBMS has so far only been used in small scale scenarios with local coverage. When it comes to large scale service areas with regional or even national coverage\, the cellular nature of eMBMS has not proven to be attractive for cost efficient LTE broadcast content distribution. Adapting LTE broadcast to traditional High Tower High Power (HTHP) broadcasting towers and introducing this as a third service layer\, i.e. as an extension of LTE unicast and eMBMS can resolve this issue as it reduces network load\, energy consumption and network costs for such popular services. Additionally\, it creates the possibility of cooperation between the cellular and broadcasting networks enabling a cooperative spectrum usage. \nThe term “Tower Overlay over LTE-Advanced+ (TOoL+)” describes the transmission of an extension of LTE-Advanced (LTE-A) offering broadcast services\, especially live video\, from a traditional High Tower High Power (HTHP) broadcast infrastructure\, rather than in a cellular LTE-A network. TOoL+ was invented and developed by IfN. Since LTE-A is optimized for the Low Tower Low Power (LTLP) environment of cellular networks\, the use of a HTHP environment requires some modifications of the LTE-A standard\, e.g. the definition of a dedicated broadcast carrier and of additional OFDM parameters with longer cyclic prefixes. These modifications are represented by the term LTE-A+. In one of the modes\, TOoL+ even supports a cooperative spectrum use by DVB-T2 (or ATSC 3.0 in the future) and LTE-A+ if this is attractive to market players. IfN developed a Software Defined Radio (SDR) based TOoL+ implementation to demonstrate the technological feasibility of this approach. An extended version of this demo has been used during two field trials conducted in Paris\, France and in the Aosta Valley\, Italy to evaluate the proposed modifications and the cooperative spectrum use in a real environment. The analysis shows that LTE-A+ is a suitable technology for HTHP broadcast to mobile devices as its coverage area is similar to that of DVB-T2. \nIn line with the ideas underlying TOoL+\, 3GPP has recently specified FeMBMS (Further evolved Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service) in Release 14. FeMBMS supports a long cyclic prefix and thus makes larger network cells feasible. At IfN we have already implemented FeMBMS and by the time of the lectures in Canada will have carried out a field trial in at least one European country. \nBiography: Prof. Ulrich H. Reimers studied communication engineering at Technische Universitaet Braunschweig\, Germany. Following research at the university’s Institut fuer Nachrichtentechnik (IfN – Institute for Communications Technology) he joined BTS Broadcast Television Systems in Darmstadt. Between 1989 and 1993 he was Technical Director of Norddeutscher Rundfunk (NDR) in Hamburg – one of the major public broadcasters in Germany. Since 1993 he has been a Professor at Technische Universitaet Braunschweig and Managing Director of the Institut fuer Nachrichtentechnik (Institute for Communications Technology). Prof. Reimers was chairman of the Technical Module within the DVB Project from 1993 to 2012. Since 2012 he is Vice President Strategic Development and Technology Transfer of Technische Universitaet Braunschweig. He is the author of more than 120 publications\, among others of various text books on DVB. Prof. Reimers received a significant number of international and national awards. He is an IEEE Life Fellow and the recipient of the IEEE Masaru Ibuka Consumer Electronics Award. Recently Prof. Reimers and the research teams at IfN invented innovative solutions for the co-existence of broadcast and wireless broadband such as “Dynamic Broadcast”\, “Tower Overlay over LTE-A+ (TOoL+)”\, or “Redundancy on Demand”. \nProf. Reimers is a Renowned Distinguished Speaker of the IEEE Consumer Electronics Society (CESoc).
