    Design of a Novel Converter Between Li-Ion Battery and Supercapacitor To Feed Synthetic Aperture Radar Loads for Satellite Applications
    (int Journal Renewable Energy Research, 2020) Tulay, Gencer; İskender, İres; Iskender, Ires; Elektrik-Elektronik Mühendisliği
    For satellite applications the active duty life of a satellite depends mainly on the battery lifespan. The charging or discharging current has an important role in useful life of batteries. For this purpose, the converters used in power supplies including batteries should be accurately designed such that the large current of batteries can be prevented. The power converter proposed in this paper is used to transfer energy from battery to supercapacitor when SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) load is active. Accordingly, the lifespan of battery and hence the lifespan of satellite will be extended. Parallel to preventing the large discharging current of batteries the proposed converter has another important property such that it is able to vary the input voltage without having any stability problems. The operating performance of the converter that is composed of Weinberg and Buck converters is analyzed using PSpice software and the results of simulations are verified through experiments. The results show that how well the converter operates satisfying the conditions required for satellite applications.

    A Novel Method To Solve 2nd Order Neumann Type Boundary Value Problems in Electrostatics
    (Applied Computational Electromagnetics Soc, 2017) Sener, Goker; Şener, Göker; Elektrik-Elektronik Mühendisliği
    In this paper, the numerical method of nonpolynomial spline approximation is used to solve 2nd order Neumann type boundary value problems (bvp's) in electrostatics. This new approach provides more accurate results than the polynomial approximations and the spectral methods. The literature contains very little on the solution of Neumann type bvp's because of the fact that a unique solution does not exist for all problems. In electrostatics, Neumann type bvp's are encountered for finding the electrostatic potential inside closed surfaces where the normal derivative of the electric potential is specified everywhere on the surface. Two examples are presented to prove the accuracy of the proposed method. In these examples, the governing differential equation is solved to find the electrostatic potential inside a region bounded by conductors that are maintained at constant voltages. The results are compared with the analytic solutions.

    Grid Connected Three-Phase Boost-Inverter for Solar Pv Systems
    (int Journal Renewable Energy Research, 2021) Demirkutlu, Eyyup; İskender, İres; Iskender, Ires; Elektrik-Elektronik Mühendisliği
    This paper presents a transformerless grid-connected three-phase boost-type inverter derived from the Swiss Rectifier (SR) and can be used in solar systems. The proposed boost-inverter retains the great advantages of the Swiss rectifier. Since the number of switches that are instantly switched with high frequency is only two, the switching losses are very low, therefore the proposed boost-inverter is very advantageous in terms of efficiency. Without having large transformer and electrolytic bus capacitors, the boost-inverter has an advantage in terms of size and weight. The switching states of the topology are given in detail. The operation principle of the boost-inverter is described with the help of equivalent circuits. A cascaded control method including current and voltage loops is designed. Simulation results are presented to validate the operation of the boost-inverter and show quality performance of the designed control approach.

    Laser Array Field Correlations in Underwater Turbulence
    (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2022) Gokce, Muhsin C.; Baykal, Yahya; Ata, Yalcin
    In underwater turbulent medium, field correlations are found when the incidence is a laser beam array. Variations of the field correlations against the variations in the ring radius of laser array beam, number of beamlets composing the laser array, source size, underwater turbulence parameters, i.e. the ratio of temperature to salinity contributions to the refractive index spectrum, rate of dissipation of mean-squared temperature and rate of dissipation of kinetic energy per unit mass of fluid, are investigated. Field correlations of laser arrays are found to be larger than the field correlations of the single beams. The effect of underwater turbulence is to reduce the field correlation of laser arrays.

    Calculation of the Spin-Lattice Relaxation Time and the Activation Energy Near the Iv-Iii Phase Transition in Pyridinium Fluorosulfonate (C5nh6)fso3
    (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2022) Kara, N.; Kiraci, A.; Yurtseven, Hamit
    The spin-lattice relaxation time T-1(H) for protons nuclei is calculated in term of the pseudospin-phonon (PS) coupled and the energy fluctuation (EF) models close to the IV-III solid-solid phase transition of T-C = 235 K in (C5NH6)FSO3. This calculation was performed by associating the observed second moment of the H-1 as the order parameter below k and the disorder parameter above T-C. Values of the activation energy for the cation reorientation in this crystal are also deduced by using both models. In addition, the observed dielectric permittivity of this crystal is analyzed within the framework of the Landau theory and values of the spontaneous polarization (P-s) are determined as a function of temperature. The normalized values of P-s are used in the PS and EF models to extract the activation energy for the reorientation of the dipole moment of this compound arising from cation-anion interaction. Our results show that the PS and EF models can describe the observed behavior of the spin-lattice relaxation time adequately for the IV-III solid-solid transition in (C5NH6)FSO3.

    Intensity Correlation of Collimated Gaussian Beams Propagating in Biological Tissues
    (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2021) Baykal, Yahya
    Intensity correlations in turbulent biological tissues are evaluated when collimated Gaussian laser beam is used. Variations of the intensity correlations in biological tissues are investigated versus the diagonal distance from the origin of the observation plane for various tissue distances, biological tissue types, strength coefficients of the refractive-index fluctuations, starting points at the observation plane. Also, intensity correlations in biological tissues for various biological tissue types versus the strength coefficient of the refractive-index fluctuations, small length-scale factor, fractal dimension. It is found that intensity correlations become smaller at larger diagonal distance, tissue distance, strength coefficients of the refractive-index fluctuations, and at smaller source size, small length-scale factor and fractal dimensions. Behaviour of the intensity correlations is found to depend on the type of the biological tissue. Our results can be used in tissue identification and to find the disorders in biological tissues.

    Effects of Adaptive Optics on Bit Error Rate of M-Ary Ppm Oceanic Optical Wireless Communication Systems With Aperture Averaging in Strong Turbulence
    (Iop Publishing Ltd, 2021) Baykal, Yahya; Ata, Yalcin; Gokce, Muhsin Caner
    Scintillation is the result of oceanic turbulence reducing the bit error rate (BER) performance of oceanic optical wireless communication (OWC) systems. The scintillation, also known as intensity fluctuations, occurs due to the turbulence-induced wavefront deformations. The correction of deformations by adaptive optics (AO) reduces the scintillation effect of turbulence and results in improved BER performance. In this paper, an oceanic OWC (OOWC) system that has a Gaussian laser beam at the transmitter, finite-sized circular aperture at the receiver, employing M-ary pulse position modulation (PPM) and operating in strong oceanic turbulence, is considered. Improvement in the BER performance of the OOWC system is examined with the implementation of AO correction. Comparison of BER performances between the AO and non-adaptive optics OOWC systems is shown by calculating the metric defined. BER of M-ary PPM OOWC links is evaluated over gamma-gamma fading channels. The modified Rytov theory together with the Zernike filter functions is used to find the AO corrected aperture averaged scintillation index where extended Huygens-Fresnel technique is used to obtain the average received signal power.

    High-Gain Low-Profile Rectangular Microstrip Patch Antenna With Yagi Elements
    (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2020) Sener, Goker
    This paper presents a novel high gain rectangular microstrip patch antenna (RMSA) with vertically placed Yagi elements. The antenna is fed by a coaxial probe to excite TM01 fundamental waves at 2.4GHz, which is suitable for wireless local area network (WLAN) applications. In order to increase the antenna gain, Yagi elements are placed in groups of 5, on each side of the substrate in order to serveas directors for the radiating slots as well as the ground reflections. The proposed antenna offers 1.3dB gain improvement and %3 .1 impedance bandwidth increase in comparison to the plain rectangular microstrip antenna with the same specifications. The advantage of this antenna is to provide an easy and cost effective solution to increase microstrip antenna gain, particularly in 8-10dB range, without disruptingits planar structure.

    Intensity Correlations of Flat-Topped Beams in Oceanic Turbulence
    (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2020) Baykal, Yahya
    Intensity correlations of flat-topped beams are formulated and evaluated in oceanic turbulence. Variations of the intensity correlations are examined against the diagonal distance from different starting points at the receiver plane, for the various number of beams composing the flat-topped beam, for various starting points at the receiver and for various source sizes. Also, the variations of the intensity correlations are investigated against the ratio of temperature to salinity contributions to the refractive index spectrum for the various number of beams composing the flat-topped beam, against the rate of dissipation of mean-squared temperature for various starting points at the receiver plane and against the rate of dissipation of kinetic energy per unit mass of fluid for various source sizes.

    M-Ary Pulse Position Modulation Performance With Adaptive Optics Corrections in Atmospheric Turbulence
    (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2020) Gokce, Muhsin C.; Baykal, Yahya; Ata, Yalcin
    The performance of M-ary pulse position modulated (PPM) optical wireless communication (OWC) systems in atmospheric weak turbulence medium is evaluated by using adaptive optics corrections. Piston, tilt, defocus and coma components of adaptive optics corrections are applied to the avalanche photodetector (APD) type of receiver and the results are obtained depending on various turbulence and receiver parameters. The lognormal channel distribution is used to model the weak atmospheric turbulence conditions. Adaptive optics correction increases the bit-error-rate (BER) performance of an OWC system operating in atmospheric turbulence conditions. Piston component yields the highest BER performance, followed by the tilt, defocus and coma adaptive optics correction components respectively.
