The line parameters available to the System Operator can be quite different from actual values because of different reasons, such as aging, manufacturing tolerance, environmental conditions, etc. Proposals have been presented in literature to estimate line parameters and monitor their changes. Synchrophasor measurements from PMUs have appeared as a possible breakthrough for accurate estimation. A novel algorithm has been recently proposed to estimate line parameters in presence of realistic systematic errors in PMU-based measurement chains. This paper aims at characterizing the robustness of...

By the evaluation of the EURAMET.EM-S42 intercomparison results, the Laboratorio Alte Tensioni e Forti Correnti (LATFC) of Istituto Nazionale di Ricerca Metrologica (INRiM, Italy NMI) starts an analysis of the calibration capabilities with the developed measuring system for lightning impulse voltages. This paper addresses the issue of the expanded uncertainty re-evaluation for the INRiM’s CMCs up to 200 kV according to a new analysis of the comparison reference value (CRV), without affecting the results of the other participants in the comparison for all the involved lighting impulse...

This work details the latest advancements on a single-channel, reactive Brain-Computer Interfaces developed at the Interdepartmental Research Center in Health Management and Innovation in Healthcare (CIRMIS) of the University of Naples Federico II. The proposed instrumentation is based on Extended Reality (XR) and exploits the acquisition and classification of the Steady-State Visually Evoked Potentials (SSVEPs). In particular, an XR headset is employed for generating the flickering stimuli necessary to the SSVEP elicitation. The users brain signals are captured by means of a highly wearable...

Instrumentation for electroencephalographic (EEG)-based monitoring of the executive functions in a dual-task framework is proposed. The proposed system integrates in a single solution (i) the administration of the cognitive task, (ii) the EEG signal acquisition and processing, (iii) the data storage synchronized whit an external Gait Analysis system. The system is based on a wearable passive brain computer interface solution that allows EEG monitoring during gait, by means of acoustic stimuli. The centralized platform guarantees the synchronization of all the processes, and therefore,...

Color Doppler Imaging (CDI) is widely used in diagnostic imaging, although the Quality Control procedures for Doppler testing have not been standardized yet. Therefore, in the present study, a novel parameter, called Doppler Image Registration Error (DIRE), for the quantification of the color flow superimposition in duplex imaging of CDI diagnostic systems has been proposed. According to the definition, the registration error is expected to be 0% when no colored pixels associated to the flow are outside the flow region. Its estimation has been carried out through a novel semi-automatic...

Microgrippers (MGs) are Micro Electro-Mechanical System (MEMS) devices able to manipulate cells and micrometric objects. In order to carry out their functional characterization, a comparison between two electrostatic rotary combdrives actuated prototypes with different geometries through an image analysis-based method is proposed. This study aims at evaluating and comparing the MGs displacement as a function of the supply voltage. The two investigated geometries are equipped with a single rotary comb-drive and a double rotary comb-drive actuation. MGs data have been collected through a...

In recent years, energy supply has been a worldwide issue. The energy demand has increased enormously and involves all the main areas: industrial, automotive, health, monitoring, home-system, etc. Therefore, using renewable energy sources or other techniques becomes essential to produce energy. Energy harvesting systems are an indispensable alternative for converting ambient energy from the surrounding environment into electrical energy in powering autonomous electronic devices or circuits. This paper presents the characterization of energy harvesting systems for high voltage power lines....
