Microwave semiconductor devices [Book] / Sitesh Kumar Roy, Monojit Mitra.

• Covers all areas of microwave semiconductor devices • Clear focus on the theoretical description of the devices • Short and highly focussed solved problems at pertinent points within the chapter • Chapter end problems meant to review the topics enable students to comprehend the subject with greater ease

Description: The main objective of this comprehensive text is to introduce the students the physics and the operational principles as well as the characteristics, and applications of the microwave semiconductor devices. These devices are making a revolutionary change in the field of communication and radars. As a result of the accelerating rate of growth of microwave technology in research and industry, students, engineers and scientists need to understand the theoretical and experimental design and analysis of these devices. The book also deals with higher frequency microwaves called millimeter waves, which are finding wide applications in ground and satellite communication, radars and missile guidance. Millimeter wave system development is one of the most advanced technologies in radio science, especially in view of the ever increasing demand of communication and saturation of microwave frequency range with increasing number of channels. The book discusses in greater detail about the semiconductor devices such as IMPATT diodes, Gunn diodes, HEMT diodes and FET diodes. It emphasizes on various two and three terminal devices in the microwave and millimeter wave field based on silicon and Groups III-V compound semiconductors. The book is intended to serve as a textbook for undergraduate electronics and electrical engineering students and postgraduate students of physics. It would also be a valuable reference book for professional engineers and physicists.

This book presents outlook of Global Energy and problems to be investigated by using coordinated and integrated HVDC/FACTS Controllers implementation likewise FACTS–FRAME in the GCC, MENA, Asian, UK–European and North American countries. The FACTS–FRAME comprises of five layers of FACTS control devices (STATCOM, SSSC, UPFC, HVDC and Centralized/Decentralized Control) architecture. This five–layer architecture is designed in order to configure and produce the desired results; Based on these outcomes, GCC, MENA, Asian, UK–European and North American Countries power system network control and operational problems can be identified and addressed within the existing control architecture on the electrical power grid to maintain seamless and robust operations with degree of precision. In the context of power FACTS–FRAME, this work is to identify and determine a number of power systems operational and control problems which are persistent continuously on the GCC, MENA, Asian, UK–European and North American countries electrical power grid to improve and address poor voltage quality (SAG–Swell), poor load flow control, and limited power transfer capacity issues. The FACTS–FRAME is configured and synthesized by integrating multiple FACTS control devices (STATCOM, SSSC, UPFC) in parallel at different locations on the GCC, MENA, Asian, UK–European and North American Countries power grid in order to meet stringent power system control and operational requirements with improved power transfer capacity, controllability and reliability. The mathematical models are derived to identify and determine operational constraints on the GCC power grid by incorporating real–time and estimated data and the acquired desired results. Herein, FACTS–FRAME is designed to handle distributed computation for intensive power system calculation by integrating multiple FACTS devices on multiple networks within the GCC, MENA, Asian, UK–European and North American countries power network. Distributed power flow algorithms are also derived in order to understand and implement centralized and decentralized control topologies as appropriate. The simulation results indicate the feasibility of
