A Second-Order Volterra Filter-Based Nonlinear Clipping Detector, Jihwan Park, Joon-Hyuk Chang Jan 2016

A Second-Order Volterra Filter-Based Nonlinear Clipping Detector, Jihwan Park, Joon-Hyuk Chang

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In this paper, we propose a novel nonlinear clipping detector based on the second-order Volterra filter for an acoustic echo canceller (AEC). Since the performance of the conventional AEC algorithm drastically deteriorates when nonlinear clipping occurs, the adaptive filter pauses adaptation during the nonlinear clipping periods to avoid unwanted divergence. These nonlinear clipping periods are detected in our method using the magnitude spectrum of the quadratic Volterra filter in lower frequency ranges. Through extensive computer-based simulation results considering an acoustic room environment and various clipping levels, it is found that the proposed approach is effective in detecting the nonlinear clipping …


Low Leakage Power Gating Technique For Subnanometer Cmos Circuits, Kavitha Manickam, Govindaraj Thangavel Jan 2016

Low Leakage Power Gating Technique For Subnanometer Cmos Circuits, Kavitha Manickam, Govindaraj Thangavel

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Static power has become the most important factor in the fabrication of integrated circuits. Power gating techniques minimize leakage currents and help to develop ultra-low-power and high-performance digital circuits. In this paper, a power gating approach is proposed to minimize leakage for subnanometer technologies. Simulation results reveal that the proposed technique reduces maximum of 96% leakage power, 33% dynamic power, 49% drowsy power, and 16{\%} energy as compared to conventional techniques. The proposed technique offers good leakage reduction, even under variation of different operating parameters.

Multilayer Authorization Model And Analysis Of Authorization Methods, Alper Uğur, İbrahi̇m Soğukpinar

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

There are various methods proposed in the literature to provide authorization control in workflows and information systems. Authorization implementations have deficiencies based on procedural scope. Basic login mechanisms grant system-wide access; the provided margins are broad. Access control lists provide limited definition on access restrictions; the authorization is bounded by these definitions. Role based authorizations do not cover regulations in institutions where the regulations describe specific operations and their operational procedures in institutional workflows. The proposed multilayer authorization model depicts the attributes of authorization mechanisms and analyzes the methods according to their authorization capabilities and contributions to the reliability of …

Interference In Geoelectric Field Observation From The Current Of A Direct-Current Grounding Electrode, Bo Tang, Zhuo Wu, Ren Liu, Shuang Wang, Qixiang Lin

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

The existence of ultrahigh voltage direct-current (UHVDC) transmission lines impacts geoelectric field observation (GFO), which further disturbs earthquake observation and prediction. We proposed a mathematic method based on a 3-dimensional layered soil model to calculate the interference and conducted GFO experiments at observatories and field observation sites during the live debugging of a $\pm $800 kV UHVDC transmission line to verify the method. The results obtained by using the proposed method are in good accordance with the experimental results and the maximum error is no more than 15%. Moreover, the experiment proves that grounding current is a decisive factor in …


A New Algorithm For Avoiding Maloperation Of Transformer Restricted Earth Fault Protection Caused By The Transformer Magnetizing Inrush Current And Current Transformer Saturation, Jelisaveta Krstivojevic, Milenko Djuric Jan 2016

A New Algorithm For Avoiding Maloperation Of Transformer Restricted Earth Fault Protection Caused By The Transformer Magnetizing Inrush Current And Current Transformer Saturation, Jelisaveta Krstivojevic, Milenko Djuric

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Owing to current transformer (CT) saturation caused by a decaying direct current component in the magnetizing inrush current, the restricted earth fault (REF) protection of a power transformer could maloperate during magnetizing inrush. This paper presents a new transformer restricted earth fault relay algorithm that can prevent false relay tripping and provide proper action during the energization of a faulty transformer. The integral of the product of the signals that are compared is calculated over 1 half-period of the signals. The performance of the proposed algorithm is tested and verified using a large number of transformer energization trials and fault …

Fast Measurement Of Headlamps By Means Of A Developed Fuzzy Luxmeter Based On A Fuzzy Mapping Algorithm, Mustafa Şi̇nasi̇ Ayas, İsmai̇l Hakki Altaş, Turhan Alçeli̇k

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

headlamps in the dark is inferable from the results of studies. Various regulations are available in order to arrange the required illuminance values at certain positions on the road. The designed and produced headlamps have to satisfy the requirements of these regulations. Manual measurement tools, such as the luxmeter (which are based on point-by-point measurements), have traditionally been used. This traditional way has been considered inefficient in terms of awkward setup procedures, complexity, the continuous intervention of human operators, and costs. In this study, in order to overcome these problems, a new approach for measuring the illuminance values is proposed. …
