Work History

PSCAD Modelling- Subsynchronous Resonance

09.2023 - 01.2024
  • Keywords: Subsynchronous resonance(SSR), NGH Scheme, Thyristor controlled series capacitor(TCSC)
  • Mitigation method: System switching, NGH-Scheme method
  • PSCAD Modelling for system switching method and NGH-Scheme Method
  • Study of IEEE First Benchmark case and reestablish PSCAD model

Teaching Assistant

University Of Jilin, Laboratory Of PLC Design
06.2021 - 09.2021
  • Assisted teachers with classroom management and document coordination to maintain positive learning environment.
  • Giving lectures to students when professor absences
  • Supported classroom activities, tutoring, and reviewing work.
  • Project design of traffic lights, design of intelligent water tank

Research Project- Wireless Communication

01.2024 - 04.2024
  • Analysis of basic OFDM system, using AWGN channel, Modulation, demodulation, IFFT & FFT
  • design considerations and tradeoffs: maximizing bit rate & minimizing mean squared error

Course Project - Machine Learning

01.2024 - 04.2024
  • Technique involved: Classification & Regression : Random Forest, decision tree and linear regression. Neural Network: MLP- Multilayer Perceptron
  • During pre-processing phase, using one hot encoding to delete redundant columns and applying drop-first to further process data
  • Using confusion matrix to evaluate the performance of model, Out-of-Bag score to estimate the overall score in Random Forest
  • Using MLPs to supervise learning tasks, including classification and regression. The network learns to adjust the weights of connections between nodes in order to minimize a chosen loss function, such as mean squared error for regression

Course Project - Kalman Filter

01.2024 - 05.2024
  • Filtering Method and applications, study structure of Kalman filter: Prediction and Update phase and using MATLAB to simulate the filter
  • Design of Kalman filtering application: Positioning algorithm using Kalman Filter and Estimation of temperature
  • Implementing algorithm by an adaptive covariance of the observation model. An approach to improve the adaptive noise covariance model by applying a weighted average computation and set the noise covariance value at a reasonable range. Introducing 'weights' for an exponentially decaying emphasis on the most recent errrors and avoid extreme values.
