Fuzzy Pso-Based Algorithm For Controlling Base Station Movements In A Wireless Sensor Network, Moosa Ayati, Mahdi Pasha Zanousi

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

There are strong limitations on the software, energy, and hardware capacities of a wireless sensor network (WSN) and therefore algorithms that increase the lifetime of a WSN are of great significance. In this paper, a mobile base station movement control strategy for WSNs is proposed. This strategy combines fuzzy logic node clustering, fuzzy cluster-head selection, and fuzzy logic control (FLC) of the base station movements. After determining cluster-heads, according to the distance and energy of the heads, the base station moves on a predefined square, triangle, circle, or hexagon shaped path. Direction and speed of the movements are controlled by …

Heuristic Methods For Postoutage Voltage Magnitude Calculations, Oğuzhan Ceylan, Aydoğan Özdemi̇r, Hasan Dağ

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Power systems play a significant role in every aspect of our daily lives. Hence, their continuation without any interruption (or with the least duration of interruption due to faults or scheduled maintenances) is one of the key aims of electrical energy providers. As a result, electrical energy providers need to check in great detail the integrity of their power systems by performing regular contingency studies of the equipment involved. Among others, line and transformer outage simulations constitute an integral part of an electrical management system. Both accuracy and calculation speed depend on the branch outage model and/or the solution algorithms …


A Generalized Particle Swarm Optimization Using Reverse Direction Information, Emre Çomak Jan 2016

A Generalized Particle Swarm Optimization Using Reverse Direction Information, Emre Çomak

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In this study, an improved particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm, including 4 types of new velocity updating formulae (each is equal to the traditional PSO), was introduced. This algorithm was called the reverse direction supported particle swarm optimization (RDS-PSO) algorithm. The RDS-PSO algorithm has the potential to extend the diversity and generalization of traditional PSO by regulating the reverse direction information adaptively. To implement this extension, 2 new constants were added to the velocity update equation of the traditional PSO, and these constants were regulated through 2 alternative procedures, i.e. max--min-based and cosine amplitude-based diversity-evaluating procedures. The 4 most commonly …

Speech Recognition Using Ann And Predator-Influenced Civilized Swarm Optimization Algorithm, Teena Mittal, Rajendra Kumar Sharma

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

This paper proposes a hybrid optimization technique, predator-influenced civilized swarm optimization, by integrating civilized swarm optimization (CSO) and predator-prey optimization (PPO) techniques. CSO is the integration of the attributes of particle swarm optimization and a society civilization algorithm (SCA). In the SCA, the swarm is divided into a few societies, and each society has its own society leader (SL); other individuals of the society are termed society members. The combination of all such societies forms a civilization, and the best-performing SL becomes the civilization leader (CL). In CSO, SLs and members update their positions through the guidance of their own …
