Selective Harmonic Elimination Explained: From the Equations to a Deterministic Solver

Why classical Newton-Raphson methods miss most solutions, what "every viable solution" really means, and how a deterministic SHE solver changes the engineering workflow for UPS, VFD, and motor drive applications. Covers the math, the five physical optimization objectives, and the textbook verification protocol.

IEEE 519 and Selective Harmonic Elimination: A Practical Compliance Guide

IEEE 519 explained from the limit tables to the field strategy. The four compliance strategies (PWM, passive filter, active filter, SHE), why SHE is structurally the right tool for megawatt-class installations, and what a reproducible verification chain to MATLAB fsolve actually looks like.

Direction-of-Arrival Estimation: When MUSIC and ESPRIT Aren't Enough

Subspace methods explained, the Cramer-Rao Lower Bound, why threshold tuning is fragile under low SNR, and the case for CRB-efficient deterministic DOA estimation. Covers the threshold effect, coherent-source fragility, and how the public Zenodo benchmark dataset lets anyone reproduce the gap themselves.

Phased-Array Synthesis: The Tradeoff Between Null Depth and Sidelobe Level

Why the SLL/null-depth tradeoff has historically been fundamental, how certified per-design proof artifacts change the engineering review cycle, and what verification against MATLAB's Phased Array Toolbox actually proves.
