Schrödinger Filtering: A Novel Technique For Removing Gradient Artifact From Electroencephalography Data Acquired During Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Gabriel Bruno Benigno Sep 2019

Schrödinger Filtering: A Novel Technique For Removing Gradient Artifact From Electroencephalography Data Acquired During Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Gabriel Bruno Benigno

Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository

Electroencephalography (EEG) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) are complementary modalities commonly acquired simultaneously to study brain function with high spatial and temporal resolution. The time-varying gradient fields from fMRI induce massive-amplitude artifacts (GRAs) that overlap in time and frequency with EEG, making GRA removal a challenge for which no satisfactory solution yet exists. We present a new GRA removal method termed Schrödinger filtering (SF). SF is based on semi-classical signal analysis in which a signal is decomposed into a series of energy-based components using the discrete spectrum of the Schrödinger operator. Using a publicly available dataset, we compared our …


Piezoelectric Transformer And Hall-Effect Based Sensing And Disturbance Monitoring Methodology For High-Voltage Power Supply Lines, Sneha Arun Lele Sep 2013

Piezoelectric Transformer And Hall-Effect Based Sensing And Disturbance Monitoring Methodology For High-Voltage Power Supply Lines, Sneha Arun Lele

Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository

Advancements in relaying algorithms have led to an accurate and robust protection system widely used in power distribution. However, in low power sections of relaying systems, standard voltage and current measurement techniques are still used. These techniques have disadvantages like higher cost, size, electromagnetic interference, resistive losses and measurement errors and hence provide a number of opportunities for improvement and integration. We present a novel microsystem methodology to sense low-power voltage and current signals and detect disturbances in high-voltage power distribution lines. The system employs dual sensor architecture that consists of a piezoelectric transformer in combination with Hall-effect sensor, used …
