  4. 3. Hosting Capacity Methods Considering Complementarity between Solar and Wind Power : A Case Study on a Swedish Regional Grid

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Energisystem

    Author : Emma Andersson; Maja Abrahamsson Bolstad; [2023]
    Keywords : hosting capacity; hosting capacity methods; renewable power generation; power grid; power system analysis; complementarity; solar power; wind power; deterministic method; time series method;

    Abstract : The demand for electrical power is growing due to factors such as population growth, urbanisation, and the transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources. To be able to keep up with the changes in electricity demand, the Swedish power grid must connect more renewable power generation, but also  increase its transmission capacity. READ MORE

  5. 4. Space-Division-Multiplexing Platform for a Delayed-Choice Experiment

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Informationskodning

    Author : Hilma Karlsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Wheeler s delayed choice; wave-particle delayed choice; Sagnac interferometer; Mach-Zehnder interferometer; complementarity relation; spatial modes; space-division-multiplexing; LP-modes; few-mode fibers; quantum communication; quantum optics;

    Abstract : This master’s thesis explores a space-division-multiplexing (SDM) platform fora delayed-choice experiment. SDM is a multiplexing technique for optical datatransmission that employs spatial modes in a multi- or few-mode fiber to increasethe transmission capacity. The spatial modes can thus be used as separate channels. READ MORE
