Rating for Load Compensation With Nonstiff Source Srinivas Bhaskar Karanki‚ Nagesh Geddada‚ Student Member‚ IEEE‚ Mahesh K. Mishra‚ Senior Member‚ IEEE‚ and B. Kalyan Kumar‚ Member‚ IEEE Abstract—The distribution static compensator (DSTATCOM) is used for load compensation in power distribution network. In this paper‚ a new topology for DSTATCOM applications with nonstiff source is proposed. The proposed topology enables DSTATCOM to have a reduced dc-link voltage without compromising the compensation

Discrete and Continuous Probability All probability distributions can be categorized as discrete probability distributions or as continuous probability distributions (stattrek.com). A random variable is represented by “x” and it is the result of the discrete or continuous probability. A discrete probability is a random variable that can either be a finite or infinite of countable numbers. For example‚ the number of people who are online at the same time taking a statistics class at CTU on
