Bio

Dr. Sindhu M. R. currently serves as Professor, Department of EEE, Amrita School of Engineering, Coimbatore, Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham. She joined Amrita School of Engineering as Lecturer in 2001.

Dr Sindhu M R received her B. Tech. (EEE) and M. Tech.(Power Systems) from Calicut University, Kerala. She has been awarded her Ph. D. on ‘Adaptive Shunt Hybrid Filter for Power Quality Improvement’ from Amrita School of Engineering, Coimbatore, Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham.

Dr. Sindhu is the Principal Investigator of DST funded project on ‘An Intelligent Controller Based Shunt Hybrid Filter for Harmonic Mitigation in Adjustable Speed Drives’ . A laboratory model of adaptive shunt hybrid filter was set up and effectiveness for harmonic and reactive compensation for an Adjustable Speed drive is investigated in this project.

She is also working on implementation of idea funded by MSME, GoI for ‘Smart EV Sharing Infrastructure with Solar Powered EV Battery Swapping/Charging Stations’. Integrating power converters and Artificial Intelligence in Electric Vehicle (EV) charging enhances its efficiency and adaptability. Power converters with bidirectional capabilities support smart charging and grid-friendly practices, while AI algorithms optimize charging schedules, predict maintenance needs, and personalize user experiences. The synergy between power converters and AI facilitates dynamic power allocation, grid load balancing, and the integration of renewable energy sources, contributing to a more intelligent and sustainable EV charging infrastructure.
