Welcome letter
WELCOME
Warm welcome to the 17th IEEE International Workshop on Control and Modelling of Power
Electronics, COMPEL 2016, in Trondheim!
The Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) is happy to host the annual
conference – further north than ever before.
In addition to the presentation of about 130 quality papers, we have prepared an attractive cultural
and social program for you. We hope you will all enjoy our long and bright summer days… and nights.
Your Host
NTNU is Norway’s main technical university, offering education and research in technology,
engineering and natural sciences as well as human and social sciences. This year, NTNU merged
with Gjøvik University College, Ålesund University College, and Sør-Trøndelang University College,
making NTNU the largest university in Norway with 39.000 students, half of whom study technology
and natural sciences. We have dozens of international student exchange programs and more than
300 cooperative agreements or exchange programs with 60 universities worldwide, and we offer free
tuition. All courses in the International Master Programs are taught in English. NTNU’s main campus,
Gløshaugen, is located only 15-30 minute walk from most hotels in Trondheim city center.
Two departments at NTNU have teamed up to organize COMPEL 2016: The Department of
Engineering Cybernetics and the Department of Electrical Power Engineering. Together, the two
departments cover the range of technical disciplines that are within the scope of COMPEL and the
multidisciplinary perspective that the conference needs today.
Special Topic
We have chosen “Stability of Power Electronics Systems and Impact of Converter Control Strategies
on System Stability” as the theme of this year’s conference.
We would also like to emphasize the importance of doing research with high relevance for
practitioners and society. This theme, with its relevance today, serves to such purpose. We aim, in
COMPEL 2016, to create a critical mass that can provide smart, sustainable and inclusive growth in
society by supporting the industrial sector in providing new solutions to achieve that purpose.
Interactions between industry, funding bodies and academia are essential to achieve this. We
understand we must work together to build and share knowledge, and develop technology and
solutions useful to society. To do so, industry needs cooperation and interaction with academia,
which we hope to facilitate by the technical sessions and the informal discussions during COMPEL.

Wireless Access
On campus
Visitors can use either of the university’s wireless networks, “eduroam” (see below) or “ntnuguest”. The “eduroam”
network assumes that your organization is in some way associated with the eduroam system, and that you have
set up your computer or mobile device according to the instructions from your local IT support. The NTNU guest
network allows web traffic, but nothing else.
In the city centre
Most parts of the city centre are covered by “Trådløse Trondheim” (Wireless Trondheim). Users with access to
eduroam (see below) may use their net free of charge. Others may access the network at a charge.
eduroam
Most European universities are members of eduroam, but many have not informed their faculty. If you do not
know if your university is a member you should check with your local IT-department. If your institution is a member
you should set up your laptop / palmtop / cellphone for eduroam before leaving for COMPEL. You will then get
automatic access to the wireless network at NTNU.
Many North American and Asia/Pacific universities and organisations are also members of eduroam and the
number is growing fast.
Information provided by the IT department at NTNU on setting up your wireless card for eduroam. This is only
applicable if your institution is a member. Change “username@ntnu.no” with “username@your_institution”. This
is a “username”@“affiliation”, not an e-mail.

He has been providing many IEEE and PELS leadership and services, including Member of the IEEE Board of Directors
(2017 – 2018), Division II Director-Elect (2016), PELS Nomination Committee Chair (2015 – 2016), EiC (founding) of
IEEE Journal of Emerging and Selected Topics in Power Electronics (2013 – present), PELS President (2013 – 2014),
PELS Vice President for Operations (2009 – 2012), Guest EiC, IEEE Transactions on Power Electronics (2011), Guest
EiC IEEE Transactions on Industry Applications (2012), Member of IEE PELS Fellow Committee (2010 – 2013), PELS
AdCom Member at Large (2005 – 2009), PELS Vice President for Meetings (2001 – 2004), and Associated Editor for
IEEE Transactions on Power Electronics (1996-2000).
Abstract: Grid modernization requires a win-win-win approach for the environment, consumers, and grid owners.
Electronictization will provide a foundation for active control and intelligence. The grid will have fractal architecture in
order to be infinitely expandable. Structured microgrid will naturally integrate the renewables with storage to provide
autonomous energy balance and control.
Grid’s ability for fault isolation localizes any failure to minimize its impact. Built-in fault and redundancy management
can enable self resiliency – to autonomously recover from natural or manmade disasters. And the back-to-back dc-dc
will enable asynchronous generation to significantly enhance grid robustness while reducing grid operational cost.
Efficiency, Control, and Stability of Power Electronic Based Systems
Mohamed Belkhayat
Dr. Mohamed Belkhayat is currently a principal scientist with Huntington Ingalls Industries
serving as a power and energy subject matter expert. He has been working in the field for
over 25 years. He obtained his EE and Energy Systems Ph. D. from Purdue University in
1997. Dr. Belkhayat developed novel stability criteria and analysis techniques that have
been actively studied and utilized in the power electronics research community and industry.
He also holds several patents in the field and has published numerous papers on the stability
of integrated DC and AC power systems. His research spans a wide range of energy
sources, including nuclear, hydrocarbon, wind, solar, and sea waves. He also researched
various conversion processes including thermo-photovoltaics, high voltage power
electronics, and rotating machinery. He developed models for advanced multiphase rotating
machinery as well as static multilevel power converters. Dr. Belkhayat also taught for over
six years, energy conversion, controls, and modeling and simulation of power electronics systems at George
Washington University, the Naval Post Graduate School in Monterey California, and at Qatar University.
Abstract: High power density and high efficiency of power electronics aboard ships is leading to ever more complex
controls. At a high level, configuration management, resilience to faults, generator paralleling, load sharing, fast
protection controls, and intelligent load shedding are now standard capabilities of shipboard supervisory controls. At a
low level, various clamped and unclamped Pulse Width Modulation and Zero Volt Switching techniques have been
devised to reduce losses and harmonics while increasing power density. The integration of all these controls has come
with new challenges. Often times, the standards are in catch-up mode. In particular, stability of these systems has been
a key factor and a challenge in the integration phase. The standard practice is to allow a significant period of time after
installation for the tuning of the system. New stability criteria, standards, and measurement techniques are needed for
successful and cost effective integration of these platforms.

Tutorials
Research on Modern Power Systems supported by Hardware-In-the-Loop Technology
Tuesday June 27. Presented by Antonello Monti and Antonino Riccobono.
Antonello Monti
Univ. Prof. Dr.-Ing. Antonello Monti, since October 2008 Professor for Automation of Complex
Power Systems at the faculty for Electrical Engineering and Information Technology at RWTH
Aachen.
Before joining RWTH in Aachen, Prof. Monti was Professor of Electrical Engineering at the
University of South Carolina (USA). During his tenure at USC he has been Associate Director
of the Virtual Test Bed (VTB) project, which focuses on computational simulation and
visualization of modern power distribution systems that fully integrate power electronics into
the network design. He has developed the real-time extension of VTB for Hardware in the
Loop applications and has designed innovative tools supporting the automatic generation of
VTB native models. He worked on expanding the limits of real-time simulation thanks to the
application of PC clusters and FPGA technology. Prof. Monti was also the director of the Real
Time and Electromechanics Laboratory (REM Lab) Education.
He started his academic career at Politecnico di Milano after 4 years of industrial experience in Ansaldo Industria.
Antonino Riccobono
Antonino Riccobono received the B.S. and M.S. degrees in Electronic Engineering from
University of Palermo, Palermo, Italy, in 2006 and 2009, respectively. He received the Ph.D.
degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of South Carolina, USA, in August 2013.
Since September 2013, he has been working as a Postdoctoral Research Associate at the
Institute for Automation of Complex Power Systems (ACS) – E.ON Energy Research Center
– RWTH Aachen University, Germany. Within ACS he also covers the charges of Leader of
the Team Real Time Simulation and Hardware in the Loop, Lab Manager, and Instructor of
the class Power Systems Dynamics.
His research interests have always been in the area of power-electronics-based power
systems. These, in particular, include modeling, control, stability analysis, and automation of
such systems, linear and nonlinear control systems, grid-connected converter applications,
microgrids and nanogrids, hardware in the loop and power hardware in the loop real time simulations.
He has also several years of practical experience in prototyping of Power Electronics converters up to a few kW power
level.
Abstract: Modern Power Systems are experiencing profound changes. These are due, on the one hand, to the deeper
penetration of grid-connected power electronics converters mainly for the integration of Renewable Energy Sources into
the power system, and, on the other hand, to the fact that interaction with other energy carriers becomes more and more
frequent. Moreover, many Distribution System Operators (DSOs) are investigating the smart grid concept where ICT
solutions are deployed for advanced energy services. Given the growing complexity of Modern Power Systems, the safe
and reliable operation of these power systems become a major challenge for both power electronic engineers and power
systems engineers as well as mechanical engineers and ICT experts.
In these regards, traditional design and testing methods may fail because pilot projects, even though they may contribute
to the solution, are limited in many aspects, such as 1) lack of controllability of many parameters, 2) lack of possibility to
perfectly replicate a scenario, 3) the time horizon may be too long, and 4) lack of possibility to export all the elements to
new regions. Therefore, new paradigms are needed to overcome the abovementioned design limitations.
Simulation fills this gap, but it must be combined with incremental prototyping. This can be achieved by (Controller)
Hardware in the Loop (HiL) and Power Hardware in the Loop (PHiL) technologies which allow physical devices being
tested in the complexity of the environment in which they will operate.
This tutorial presents both the HiL and PHiL technologies that support R&D in Modern Power Systems. First, concepts
of HiL and PHiL are reviewed and related challenges are presented. Then, a few selected HiL and PHiL real-time setups
currently running at the Institute for Complex Power Systems – E.ON Energy Research Center – RWTH Aachen
University, Germany, are described.

Practical Feedback-loop Design of Bus Converters Supplying Regulated Voltage to DCInput-Port Converters
Tuesday June 27. Presented by Marina Sanz.
Marina Sanz
Marina Sanz received the M.Sc. and Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering from
Polytechnique University of Madrid, Spain, in 1997 and 2004, respectively, where she was a
researcher from 1997 to 2001. In 2001 she joined the Department of Electronic Technology
at the Carlos III University of Madrid, Spain, where she is currently Associate Professor, Vice
Dean of the Engineering School and Head of Electrical Engineering and Automation Bachelor
degree.
Prof. Sanz has been involved in Power Electronics since 1997, participating in more than 45
research projects with public and private funding. Her main research interests include power
electronics system modelling and stability issues, especially in transport and
telecommunication applications. Her research also covers digital control in power electronics
and educational issues on power electronics.
Dr. Sanz has published more than 80 papers, many of them in IEEE journals, books and conferences with high impact
factor, being one of her research papers awarded with the “Fast Breaking Paper in the Field of Engineering” in 2008. Her
research also resulted in 5 patents and an international registered software.
Abstract: In recent years, traditional power distribution systems, based on a centralized architecture, have been
progressively replaced by distributed power systems in many applications such as telecommunications, More-Electric
Aircraft or microgrids. Distributed architectures offer different advantages such as the use of standardized converters
(commercial off-the-shelf, COTS), the easy addition of redundancy, the capability of on-line replacement (hot-swapping)
of damaged converters. However, new challenges must be addressed, since the active nature of power electronic
converters results in complex dynamic behavior when they are interconnected to each other.
Regarding the proper power system integration, one important issue is the suitable design of the control loop of the Bus
converter that should supply the regulated DC voltage to the converters connected downstream. From the point of view
of the control design, the small-signal stability of the system must be complied as necessary condition. Hence, the closedloop input impedance of the load converters must be determined in order to design the feedback-loop of the bus converter
for small-signal system stability. On one hand, sometimes, analytical techniques for closed-loop input impedance
calculation require complex derivations. Moreover, this approach is not suitable in case of using commercial converters
since internal parameters of the converters are unknown due to the manufacturer´s confidentiality. On the other hand,
behavioral modeling techniques allow obtaining the required information of the converters input impedance avoiding the
datasheet limitation. Nevertheless, they are difficult, expensive and time consuming since complex measurements, using
high-cost instrumentation, plus powerful but complicated identification techniques should be used. Hence, a new
approach is proposed in the tutorial trying to overcome these limitations.
The purpose of this tutorial is to review the different state-of-art approaches for deriving the closed-loop input impedance
of load converters. To overcome their limitations, a new proposal to calculate the closed-loop input impedance that will
be helpful for practicing power system engineers is provided. Finally, automatic regulator design by means of a CAD tool
will be also described.

Pedro Rodríguez
Pedro Rodríguez received the M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering from the
Technical University of Catalonia (UPC), Spain. He was a Postdoctoral Researcher at the
Center for Power Electronics Systems (CPES), Virginia Tech, Blacksburg, and at the
Department of Energy Technology, Aalborg University (AAU). He joined the faculty of UPC
as an Assistant Professor in early 90s, where he became the Director of the research center
on Renewable Electrical Energy Systems (SEER). He is still connected to the UPC as a part
time Professor. He was also a Visiting Professor at the AAU for five years, acting as a cosupervisor of the Vestas Power Program. He is currently the Director of Technology in Modern
Power Systems in Abengoa.
He has coauthored one book, around 70 papers in ISI technical journals and around 250
papers in conference proceedings. He is the holder of nine licensed patents. His research
interests include integration of distributed generation systems, smart grids, and design and control of power converters.
Dr. Rodriguez is a Fellow Member of the IEEE, a member of the administrate committee of the IEEE Industrial Electronics
Society (IES), the general chair of IEEE-IES Gold and Student Activities, the vice-chair of the Sustainability and
Renewable Energy Committee of the IEEE Industry Application Society and a member of the IEEE-IES Technical
Committee on Renewable Energy Systems. He is an Associate Editor of the IEEE Transaction on Power Electronics.
Specialties: His research activity lies in the field of distributed power systems, being mainly focused on designing
hardware and software solutions for grid interactive power plants, designing power converters for green energy sources,
modelling and analyzing power systems, and proposing new technical solutions to improve stability and power quality in
modern electrical power systems.
Abstract: The increasing high penetration of power electronics in electrical systems, whether in standalone applications
like transportation, or in distribution systems connected to the grid as result of the massive deployment of renewable
energy sources over the past years, has made apparent the need to understand the different types of dynamic
interactions that can be induced by them in such systems. Accordingly, this seminar will focus on the dynamic stability
assessment of AC systems, using the synchronous d-q frame impedance based analysis to do so. It will present the
underlying theory governing the multiple possible interactions, featuring practical examples triggered by constant power
loads, and also by grid-tied inverters injecting active power into the grid. A revision of newly developed d-q frame
impedance measurement units (IMU) will be presented too.
