The energy efficiency of a communication system using pulse position modulation (PPM) can be increased by reducing the duration of the pulses transmitted over the communication channel to several tens of picoseconds. The employment of an event timer device as a time-to-digital converter (TDC) for demodulation allows the use of PPM with many pulse positions and achieves competitive data transfer speeds. However, along with several-picosecond accuracy of modern event timers, they require a pulse duration of several hundred picoseconds for precise detection. This research is devoted to developing passive techniques for precise pulse expansion from tens of picoseconds to hundreds of picoseconds. We propose two methods: the electrical method, which employs a microstrip low-pass filter (LPF), and the optical method, which uses fiber Bragg grating (FBG). This research offers a detailed analysis of distortion-free pulse expansion requirements, the design of prototypes meeting these requirements, and experimental design verification. Theoretical background, mathematical models, and results of experimental validation of the proposed pulse expansion methods within the laboratory transmitted reference pulse-position modulation (TR-PPM) communication system are provided.

In power systems with a high proportion of renewable power sources (PSHPRPSs), the power constraints of the tie-line may limit the ability of the reserve power to accommodate uncertain power generation, resulting in difficulties for the grid power balance. As uncertain power generation cannot be predicted accurately and in accordance with the law of probability and statistics, it is necessary to use a probability model to calculate the uncertain power of the tie-line. Here, day-ahead prediction error probability optimal power flow (DPEPOPF) is proposed to calculate the tie-line reserve power probability margin (TRPPM) in day-ahead dispatching. In day-ahead dispatching, TRPPM is reserved for real-time dispatching to accommodate uncertain power generation, so as to avoid tie-line power congestion. This study classifies the area of the grid based on the principle of area control error accommodation, and the DPEPOPF is divided into two categories: An inter-area day-ahead prediction error probability optimal power flow mathematical model, and an intra-area day-ahead prediction error probability optimal power flow mathematical model. The point estimate optimization algorithm was implemented in MATLAB 8.3.0.532 (R2014a) to calculate the TRPPM. The simulation results verify the accuracy of the model and effectively avoid power congestion of the tie-line. Full article
