Nowadays my research is focused, whithin the DEEPER research group, on the application of Reconfigurable Devices (mainly FPGAs) to control Power Electronics Converters (DC/AC and AC/AC, mainly). At the workgroup we have developed the following Ph.D. Thesis:
- Study and evaluation of distributed power electronic converters in photovoltaic generation applications authored by Dr. Zaid A. Aljawary and mentored by Dr. S. de Pablo and Dr. L.C. Herrero.
- Study of new vector-control algorithms for 3-phase inverters used in renewable agents connected to the low-voltage utility grid with disturbances authored by Dr. Néstor F. Guerrero-Rodríguez and mentored by Dr. Alexis B. Rey-Boué.
- Estudio y Simulación de Convertidores CA/CA Directos 3x3 en Matriz de Conversión controlados mediante Sliding Fuente de Corriente authored by Dr. Luis Carlos Herrero de Lucas and mentored by Dr. S. de Pablo and Dr. J.M. Ruiz.
- Control de aerogeneradores de paso fijo para extraer la máxima potencia eólica authored by Dr. Fernando Martínez Rodrigo and mentored by Dr. J.M. Ruiz and Dr. J.A. Domínguez.
- Estudio de la Aplicación de los Dispositivos Programables tipo FPGA al Diseño de Circuitos Digitales de Comunicación authored by Dr. Luis José Vaquero Garrote and mentored by Dr. S. de Pablo.
- Control Digital Vectorial con Sliding en Fuente de Corriente para Convertidores CC/CA Trifásicos conectados a Red authored by Dr. Alexis B. Rey Boué and mentored by Dr. S. de Pablo and Dr. J.M. Ruiz.
- Estudio del Test de Tarjetas de Circuito Impreso con Circuitos Digitales VLSI y Memorias RAM authored by Dr. Santiago Cáceres Gómez and mentored by Dr. J.M. Ruiz.
- Arquitecturas y Algoritmos para el Tratamiento y la Segmentación de Imágenes en Tiempo Real authored by Dr. Santiago de Pablo Gómez and mentored by Dr. S. Lorenzo.
