Abstract
This paper presents an efficient parameter extraction method applied to GaN high electron mobility transistors. The procedure only relies on S-parameter measurements at cold bias conditions to extract the extrinsic parameters of a 19-element small-signal model. Hybrid technique of particle-swarm-optimization and direct fitting has been developed and implemented. The extraction procedure has been optimized to consider measurements uncertainty and improve the reliability of the extraction. The procedure has been validated by multibias extraction for different device sizes. A very good agreement between simulations and measurements has been obtained.

Abstract
This paper addresses a critical analysis of the impact of the wind ramp events with unforeseen magnitude in power systems at the very short term, modeling the response of the operational reserve against this type of phenomenon. A multi-objective approach is adopted, and the properties of the Pareto-optimal fronts are analyzed in cost versus risk, represented by a worst scenario of load curtailment. To complete this critical analysis, a study about the usage of the reserve in the event of wind power ramps is performed. A case study is used to compare the numerical results of the models based on stochastic programming and models that take a risk analysis view in the system with high level of wind power. Wind power uncertainty is represented by scenarios qualified by probabilities. The results show that the reliability reserve may not be adequate to accommodate unforeseen wind ramps and therefore the system may be at risk.

Abstract
Short-term load forecasting plays an important role to the operation of electric systems, as a key parameter for planning maintenances and to support the decision making process on the purchase and sale of electric power. A particular case in this respect is the consumption forecasting on special days, which can be a complex task as it presents unusual load behavior, when compared to regular working days. Moreover, its reduced number of samples makes it hard to properly train and validate more complex and nonlinear prediction algorithms. This paper tackles this problem by proposing a new approach to improve the accuracy of the predictions amidst existing special days, employing an Information Theoretic Learning Mean Shift algorithm for pattern discovery, classifying and densifying the available scarce consumption data. The paper describes how this methodology was applied to an electrical load forecasting problem in the northern region of Brazil, improving the previously obtained accuracy held by the power company.
