Periodic Control For The Cart Pendulum System With Structured Uncertainty, Arindam Chakraborty, Jayati Dey
Periodic Control For The Cart Pendulum System With Structured Uncertainty, Arindam Chakraborty, Jayati Dey
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
The robust stabilization of the cart pendulum system was studied under structured uncertainty with a continuous-time periodic controller. The cart pendulum system was considered here as the test set-up as it is a well-known example of an unstable nonminimum phase system. The uncertainty in the system rose due to measurement error or dry friction in it. In this paper, the robust stability of the periodic controller in the presence of uncertainty was examined. The gain margin and delay margin endow with the periodic controller were superior to those obtained in the case of linear time invariant (LTI) control even in …

Low Power 3rd Order Feedforward Sigma Delta Adc Design, Feyyaz Meli̇h Akçakaya, Günhan Dündar
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this work, a 3-bit feedforward 3rd order sigma delta analog-to-digital converter (ADC) is presented. In this proposed architecture, feedforward paths and multibit design help the integrator output swings to become smaller, which renders the exploitation of a telescopic cascode opamp in the integrators possible. Moreover, a double sampling method is used to relax the opamp specifications. The proposed sigma delta ADC consumes 28.2 $\mu $W and has 81.3 dB SNDR according to postlayout simulations.

A Multifunctional Dstatcom For Power Quality Improvement, Mohammad Mahdianpoor, Arash Kiyoumarsi, Mohammad Ataei, Rahmat Allah Hooshmand, Houshang Karimi
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
The distribution static compensator (DSTATCOM) is used for various purposes such as load balancing, harmonic rejection, and power factor correction (PFC) in power distribution networks. In unbalanced and polluted power systems, the classic definition of power factor cannot be used for PFC due to the existence of harmonics and negative sequence components in voltage and current waveforms. In this paper, PFC is performed using the IEEE power factor definition for harmonic and unbalanced environments. Moreover, the application of a proportional-resonant (PR) controller is proposed as an effective controller in the stationary frame for DSTATCOM performance improvement. The PR controller is …

Gica: Imperialist Competitive Algorithm With Globalization Mechanism For Optimization Problems, Yousef Abdi, Mahmoud Lak, Yousef Seyfari
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
The imperialist competitive algorithm (ICA) is a recent global search strategy developed based on human social evolutionary phenomena in the real world. However, the ICA has the drawback of trapping in local optimum solutions when used for high-dimensional or complex multimodal functions. In order to deal with this situation, in this paper an improved ICA, named GICA, is proposed that can enhance ICA performance by using a new assimilation method and establishing a relationship between countries inspired by the globalization concept in the real world. The proposed algorithm is evaluated using a set of well-known benchmark functions for global optimization. …

Real-time multimedia applications are becoming increasingly popular among mobile cellular users. Given that Long Term Evolution-Advanced (LTE-A), which is an emerging mobile cellular standard, needs to support these multimedia applications, packet scheduling is of paramount importance in LTE-A. This paper proposes a packet scheduling algorithm known as novel scheduling for usage in the downlink of LTE-A. It takes channel quality, average throughput, and packet delay into account when determining the priority of each user. Simulation results demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed algorithm in optimizing real-time multimedia performance for more mobile cellular users.
Application Of Singular Value Decomposition Algorithm For Implementing Power Amplifier Linearizer, Rajbir Kaur, Manjeet Singh Patterh
Application Of Singular Value Decomposition Algorithm For Implementing Power Amplifier Linearizer, Rajbir Kaur, Manjeet Singh Patterh
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
A power amplifier (PA) is an integral component of all base stations in wireless communication systems and is used for converting DC power supply into radio frequency output power, but PAs are highly nonlinear. To achieve high power conversion efficiency, the PA is operated near saturation, which causes intermodulation products and hence results in nonlinear distortion. Digital predistortion (DPD) is a technique used to compensate for the nonlinear distortion without compromising its efficiency. Fourth Generation Long Term Evolution (4G LTE) systems use a carrier aggregation scheme to combine separate available bandwidths to deliver high data speeds. In this paper the …

Minimizing Scheduling Overhead In Lre-Tl Real-Time Multiprocessor Scheduling Algorithm, Hitham Seddig Alhassan Alhussian, Mohamed Nordin Bin Zakaria, Fawnizu Azmadi Bin Hussin
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this paper, we present a modification of the local remaining execution-time and local time domain (LRE-TL) real-time multiprocessor scheduling algorithm, aimed at reducing the scheduling overhead in terms of task migrations. LRE-TL achieves optimality by employing the fairness rule at the end of each time slice in a fluid schedule model. LRE-TL makes scheduling decisions using two scheduling events. The bottom (B) event, which occurs when a task consumes its local utilization, has to be preempted in order to resume the execution of another task, if any, or to idle the processor if none exist. The critical (C) event …
Sotarm: Size Of Transaction-Based Association Rule Mining Algorithm, Asha Pandian, Jebarajan Thaveethu
Sotarm: Size Of Transaction-Based Association Rule Mining Algorithm, Asha Pandian, Jebarajan Thaveethu
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Mining of association rules tries to identify the existence of promising and fruitful relations among the items present in a database. The basic a priori algorithm suffers from multiple database scans, and if the database is large, then the time taken for scanning and generation of candidates is also large. The proposed algorithm attempts to reduce the repeated scanning of the whole database. Using this algorithm, scanning time and also the generation of subitems that are not frequent can be reduced. The former can be done by sorting the transaction records in descending order based on the size of transaction …
Exploiting Kernel-Based Feature Weighting And Instance Clustering To Transfer Knowledge Across Domains, Jafar Tahmoresnezhad, Sattar Hashemi
Exploiting Kernel-Based Feature Weighting And Instance Clustering To Transfer Knowledge Across Domains, Jafar Tahmoresnezhad, Sattar Hashemi
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Learning invariant features across domains is of vital importance to unsupervised domain adaptation, where classifiers trained on the training examples (source domain) need to adapt to a different set of test examples (target domain) in which no labeled examples are available. In this paper, we propose a novel approach to find the invariant features in the original space and transfer the knowledge across domains. We extract invariant features of input data by a kernel-based feature weighting approach, which exploits distribution difference and instance clustering to find desired features. The proposed method is called the kernel-based feature weighting (KFW) approach and …
A Symmetrically Feeding Structure For Dual-Polarized Feeds, Jinyuan Liu, Hui Deng, Bin Ding, Xiaolong Niu
A Symmetrically Feeding Structure For Dual-Polarized Feeds, Jinyuan Liu, Hui Deng, Bin Ding, Xiaolong Niu
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this paper, a symmetrically feeding structure for linear dual-polarized feeds for a compensated compact test range (CCR) and a corresponding wideband balun are put forward. $TM_{01}$ and $TE_{21} $ modes within the circular feeding waveguide are compressed due to its electrical balance. The polarization purity of feeds is then improved. Thus, the level of cross-polarization can be very low, which is the key requirement for CCR. A new wideband balun that acts as a power-divider and phase shifter with low amplitude unbalance and phase unbalance is designed for the new feeding structure. The return loss equation derived from an …
Implementation Of Zero Voltage Switched Sepic/Zeta Bidirectional Converter For Low Power Applications Using Fpga, Venmathi Mahendran, Ramaprabha Ramabadran
Implementation Of Zero Voltage Switched Sepic/Zeta Bidirectional Converter For Low Power Applications Using Fpga, Venmathi Mahendran, Ramaprabha Ramabadran
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
This paper presents a derived SEPIC/ZETA bidirectional converter (BDC) with reduced ripple in the noninverted output voltage. This converter is obtained by the fusion of unidirectional SEPIC and ZETA converters that ensures reduced ripple in the inductor currents. The optimal selection of duty ratio enables the proposed converter to operate either in SEPIC or ZETA mode under forward and reverse power flow. The presence of auxiliary circuit not only reduces the voltage stress on the switches by operating under zero voltage switching condition but also provides isolation between the input and the output ports. The operational principle and the stability …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
This paper presents a multiobjective optimization methodology to optimally place a STATCOM in electric power distribution networks. The combination of multiobjective ant colony optimization (MACO) and the bacterial foraging optimization algorithm (BFOA) is proposed to minimize the power loss and total cost. The main intention of this analysis is to optimally place the STATCOM at multiple locations such as the transmission side, middle, and load side. Identifying the type and location of the STATCOM is a combinatorial optimization problem in power systems. In order to overcome this problem, the combination of hybrid MACO and BFOA algorithms is applied in this …

An Intelligent Approach In Delay Tolerant Network Routing, Azadeh Omidvar, Karim Mohammadi
An Intelligent Approach In Delay Tolerant Network Routing, Azadeh Omidvar, Karim Mohammadi
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Delay tolerant networks (DTNs) are wireless intermittent networks. DTNs have different applications such as wildlife tracking, military, and space searching. Conventional mobile ad hoc network (MANET) routing protocols are not efficient in these networks because of intermittency. DTNs use store-carry-forward (SCF) for data transferring. In SCF, nodes store the messages and carry them until finding appropriate nodes for forwarding. Message replication greatly helps to improve the delivery ratio while increasing overhead. This paper examines the use of intelligent routing to choose nodes that have more probability to reach their destination. This will help to increase the message delivery ratio while …
Protection Coordination For A Distribution System In The Presence Of Distributed Generation, Muhammad Yousaf, Tahir Mahmood
Protection Coordination For A Distribution System In The Presence Of Distributed Generation, Muhammad Yousaf, Tahir Mahmood
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
This paper proposes an effective strategy to overcome the impacts on coordination among protection devices due to distributed generator (DG) integration. Increased fault current magnitude and changes in power flow directions are the major impacts imposed by DGs on a typical distribution system. The recloser-fuse coordination is much influenced upon the integration of DGs. The proposed approach presents the rehabilitation of recloser-fuse coordination for post-DG integration effects using the directional properties of a recloser. The simulation results show that coordination among protection devices can be regained using fast operation of the recloser to design a fuse saving scheme in the …
Implementation Of Svc Based On Grey Theory And Fuzzy Logic To Improve Lvrt Capability Of Wind Distributed Generations, Mohammad Mehdi Karami, Akbar Itami
Implementation Of Svc Based On Grey Theory And Fuzzy Logic To Improve Lvrt Capability Of Wind Distributed Generations, Mohammad Mehdi Karami, Akbar Itami
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Due to the great absorption of reactive power after voltage drops caused by faults in network, the low-voltage ride through (LVRT) capability of squirrel cage induction generators (SCIGs) in wind farms is a great challenge. If a static VAR compensator (SVC) is installed at the point of common coupling (PCC) of a wind farm with a main network, it can improve the wind generation's LVRT capability with reactive power compensation. In the voltage control loop of a conventional SVC, the voltage actual value of the PCC is compared with the reference voltage value. This paper presents a method for implementation …
Probabilistic Data Fusion Model For Heart Beat Detection From Multimodal Physiological Data, Tehseen Zia, Zulqarnian Arif
Probabilistic Data Fusion Model For Heart Beat Detection From Multimodal Physiological Data, Tehseen Zia, Zulqarnian Arif
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Automatic detection of heart beats constitutes the basis for electrocardiogram (ECG) analysis and mainly relies on detecting QRS complexes. Detection is typically performed by analyzing the ECG signal. However, when signal quality is low, it often leads to the triggering of false alarms. A contemporary approach to reduce false alarm rate is to use multimodal data such as arterial blood pressure (ABP) or photoplethysmogram (PPG) signals. To leverage the correlated temporal nature of these signals, a probabilistic data fusion model for heart beat detection is proposed. A hidden Markov model is used to decode waveforms into segments. A Bayesian network …

In parallel to this, there are important concerns regarding the confidentiality of private data during data transmissions and the possibility that data might fall into the hands of third parties. Issues relating to data safety can also affect patients' medical images and other information relating to these images. In this study, we propose a new method based on block matching that can be used to hide the patient information in medical images. In this method, …

Performance Comparison Of Axial-Flux-Modulated Motor With Two Pole-Slot Combinations, Huijuan Liu, Yue Hao, Weinong Fu
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Axial-flux-modulated motors (AFMMs) with two pole-slot combinations are presented and analyzed quantitatively. They all have new topology structures, and their design rules differ from those of the traditional machine. The concentrated stator windings are designed to reduce the end length and copper losses; therefore, the efficiency of the motors can be improved. Special iron segments in the air-gap are used to modulate the magnetic field. The two proposed AFMMs have 36 stator slots and 30 stator slots, respectively, and the pole-slot combinations are 6 poles for 36 slots and 4 poles for 30 slots. This paper focuses on the comparative …

Adaptive Control Of Pure-Feedback Systems In The Presence Of Parametric Uncertainties, Mehrnoosh Asadi, Heydar Toossian Shandiz
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
The purpose of this study is to investigate an adaptive control approach for completely nonaffine pure-feedback systems with linear/nonlinear parameterization. In this approach, the parameter separation technique and the idea of the positive function of linearly connected parameters are coupled effectively with the combination of backstepping and time-scale separation. Subsequently, a fast dynamical equation is derived from the original subsystem, where the solution is sought to approximate the corresponding ideal virtual/actual control inputs. Furthermore, the adaptation law of unknown parameters can be derived based on Lyapunov theory in the backstepping technique and there is no need to design a state …
A Data-Aware Cognitive Engine For Scheduling Data Intensive Applications In A Grid, Vijaya Nagarajan, Maluk Mohamed Mulk Abdul
A Data-Aware Cognitive Engine For Scheduling Data Intensive Applications In A Grid, Vijaya Nagarajan, Maluk Mohamed Mulk Abdul
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Data-intensive applications produce huge amounts of data that need to be stored, analyzed, and interpreted. A data grid serves as a cost-effective infrastructure for solving these data-intensive applications. Existing scheduling strategies are best suited for handling compute-intensive applications, although they lack in performance while handling data-intensive applications. In this work, a novel mechanism of incorporating cognitive science in a data grid is proposed for scheduling data-intensive workflows. A unique model is derived in which a cognitive engine (CE) is built into the middleware of the data grid. The intelligent agents present in the CE handle the request for data sets …

Presently, axial flux permanent magnet machines are becoming popular and are being deployed actively for low speed applications. This paper presents an improved model of a multistage axial flux permanent magnet generator (AFPMG). The multistage AFPMG consists of multiple stator and rotor discs. There are three identical 1-phase stator discs and four in-phase rotor discs in the proposed multistage AFPMG. In this research, 4 case studies were analyzed on the design of the multistage AFPMG. First, a phase shift model (PSM) positions the three 1-phase stator discs to behave as a 3-phase generator. Actually, the PSM computes phases for three …
Adslanf: A Negotiation Framework For Cloud Management Systems Using A Bulk Negotiation Behavioral Learning Approach, Rajkumar Rajavel, Mala Thangarathinam
Adslanf: A Negotiation Framework For Cloud Management Systems Using A Bulk Negotiation Behavioral Learning Approach, Rajkumar Rajavel, Mala Thangarathinam
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
One of the major challenges in cloud computing is the development of a service-level agreement (SLA) negotiation framework using an intelligent third-party broker negotiation strategy. Current frameworks exploit various negotiation strategies using game theoretic, heuristic, and argumentation-based approaches for obtaining optimal negotiation with a better success rate (negotiation commitment). However, these approaches fail to optimize the negotiation round (NR), total negotiation time (TNT), and communication overhead (CO) involved in the negotiation strategy. To overcome these problems, certain researchers have exploited trade-off, concession, and behavioral learning strategies with varying degrees of sacrifices (reductions) in their concerned proposal generation. Such sacrifices can …
Transmission Power Control Using State Estimation-Based Received Signal Strength Prediction For Energy Efficiency In Wireless Sensor Networks, Ramakrishnan Sabitha, Krishna Bhuma, Thangavelu Thyagarajan
Transmission Power Control Using State Estimation-Based Received Signal Strength Prediction For Energy Efficiency In Wireless Sensor Networks, Ramakrishnan Sabitha, Krishna Bhuma, Thangavelu Thyagarajan
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In battery-operated wireless sensor networks, the quality of service requirements such as throughput and energy efficiency must be stringently maintained while the least amount of energy is consumed. Since a major portion of energy is spent by the transceiver operations, transmission power control (TPC) in the medium access control (MAC) layer can bring about considerable energy efficiency. Since TPC algorithms will have a direct impact on the received signal strength index (RSSI) at the receiver, RSSI is the primary input parameter for any TPC algorithm. The objective of the proposed work is to decide on the exact value of transmission …

Pseudorandom Number Generator Based On Arnold Cat Map And Statistical Analysis, Erdi̇nç Avaroğlu
Pseudorandom Number Generator Based On Arnold Cat Map And Statistical Analysis, Erdi̇nç Avaroğlu
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Pseudorandom number generators (PRNGs) generate random bit streams based on deterministic algorithms. Any bit stream generated with a PRNG will repeat itself at a certain point, and the bit streams will become correlated. As a result, all bit streams generated in this manner are statistically weak. Such weakness leads to a strong connection between PRNGs and chaos, which is characterized by ergodicity, confusion, complexity, sensitivity to initial conditions, and dependence on control parameters. In this study, we introduce a PRNG that generates bit sequences by sampling two Arnold cat map outputs. The statistical randomness of bit streams obtained using this …
A New Approach For Digital Image Watermarking To Predict Optimal Blocks Using Artificial Neural Networks, Raheleh Khorsand Movaghar, Hossein Khaleghi Bizaki
A New Approach For Digital Image Watermarking To Predict Optimal Blocks Using Artificial Neural Networks, Raheleh Khorsand Movaghar, Hossein Khaleghi Bizaki
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this paper, we propose a novel nonblind digital image watermarking based on discrete wavelet transform and singular value decomposition. This robust scheme takes advantage of artificial neural networks for selecting suitable image blocks in which the watermark signal can be embedded. Local characteristics of the blocks such as luminance and texture sensitivity are the main criteria that the selections are based on. Generally, selection is based on a prediction of the results with the objective of transparency and watermark resilience. In other words, before embedding the water mark signal, it is estimated which blocks would be the best for …
Mutual Correlation Of Nist Statistical Randomness Tests And Comparison Of Their Sensitivities On Transformed Sequences, Ali̇ Doğanaksoy, Fati̇h Sulak, Muhi̇ddi̇n Uğuz, Okan Şeker, Zi̇ya Akcengi̇z
Mutual Correlation Of Nist Statistical Randomness Tests And Comparison Of Their Sensitivities On Transformed Sequences, Ali̇ Doğanaksoy, Fati̇h Sulak, Muhi̇ddi̇n Uğuz, Okan Şeker, Zi̇ya Akcengi̇z
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Random sequences are widely used in many cryptographic applications and hence their generation is one of the main research areas in cryptography. Statistical randomness tests are introduced to detect the weaknesses or nonrandom characteristics that a sequence under consideration may have. In the literature, there exist various statistical randomness tests and test suites, defined as a collection of tests. An efficient test suite should consist of a number of uncorrelated statistical tests each of which measures randomness from another point of view. `Being uncorrelated' is not a well-defined or well-understood concept in the literature. In this work, we apply Pearson's …
