The main focus in this paper lies on a novel interface design to transmit image data combined with results trough a single interface. Therefore the data stream is divided in two logical parts the image data and the result data. The big advantage is the transfer via different standardized interfaces like Universal Serial Bus (USB) or Gigabit-Ethernet (GigE) Vision. The transfer model was tested in a scalable hardware platform developed in previous work.

The goal of this paper is to plot the electromagnetic field behavior from multisources and calculate the density power inside a vehicle. It was done by measuring the electric field radiated by monopole antennas of λ/4, in frequency 2.045GHz. The Monopole antennas were positioned inside the vehicle to simulate the height of the mobile device in use by adults humans. The results show that the reflections of the microwave should be considered in risk assessments of EMF exposure in daily life.

In this paper, we consider a dual channel signal model with common frequency that is appropriate in a plurality of measurement setups, including impedance measurements and imbalance measurement in direct conversion RF receivers. We investigate on a new approach and present analysis of parameter estimation, specifically the seven parameter dual channel sine fit in which the signals from both channels are uniformly subsampled with coprime pair of sparse samplers and combined in a single array. Simulation results shall show acquired improvement in complexity as well as loss in estimation performance compared to that of an estimation from Nyquist sampled signal.

Since the penetration of photovoltaic (PV) systems in the electrical network is increasing, the need to register and model the contribution of these systems, in terms of disturbances and power availability, is becoming a crucial key for optimal management of grid. On the other hand, electrical signature of sources and loads is the unique generation/consumption pattern intrinsic to each individual electrical appliance/piece of equipment. So, this paper, starting from the analysis of the disturbance impact of a 20 kW grid connected PV system, performs a preliminary study on building a method to better understand and explore the nature of electricity generation patterns of PV plants. Through this knowledge, it is possible to explore and develop innovative applications to achieve better utilization of resources and develop more intelligent ways of operation in new smart grids.

As the national metrology institute of Brazil, Inmetro is responsible for the maintenance and support given to clients in Brazil and abroad. In order to implement its services with high quality performance, Inmetro develops systems which will provide the dissemination of the basic magnitudes. Corroborating to this mission, the Voltage and Current Laboratory (Latce) presents its standard for ac-dc current transfer based on Single Junction Thermal Converters (SJTCs), the behaviour of Latce’s standards, and the recent upgrades in the system. Responsible for the calibration of both voltage and current instruments, such as accurate multifunction calibrators and multimeters for other laboratories or industry, the transfer standards are between the first levels of the traceability pyramid for the dissemination of time-dependent voltage and current magnitudes. The system for ac-dc current transfer measurement has been improved since BIPM international key comparison of ac-dc current transfer standards – CCEM K12, by changes in the setup and uncertainty budget reevaluation. The aim of this paper is to show how Latce managed to reduce uncertainty magnitude.
