Setup a CI/CV virtual testbench to perform virtual validation of BCM and IPC components. Involved component-level testing, regression testing, and virtualization to ensure correct functionality of software components. Integration of Level 3 and Level 1 vECUs and REST bus simulation was executed to validate multiple communication networks and software interactions.
Description:
This project focused on designing and implementing control algorithms to stabilize frequencies in a microgrid when subjected to various faults. The work involved simulation, modeling, and testing of distributed generation and microgrid control systems.
Key Responsibilities:
Developed control algorithms for Distributed Generation and Microgrid frequency stabilization.
