Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Metamaterial-based microwave components are among the state-of-the-art heater and sensor designs for microfluidic systems. The miniaturization and energy-focusing abilities of the metamaterial-based components make it possible to adopt microwave components operating at wavelengths in the order of 10 cm for microfluidic systems. Microwave systems are particularly advantageous for point-of-care and high-throughput applications due to their high speed of operation, very low instrumentation cost, ability to selectively and internally heat specimens, and ability of label-free sensing. In this study, the efficiency and behavior of microwave components designed for heating and sensing small volumes in the scale of nanoliters are studied. In …

A Dynamic Spectrum Management Algorithm In Vdsl Systems, Sunil Sharma, Om Parkash Sahu
A Dynamic Spectrum Management Algorithm In Vdsl Systems, Sunil Sharma, Om Parkash Sahu
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
A modified iterative water-filling algorithm is proposed in which power from only those subcarriers of the near end user are reduced, which has the worst effect on bit rates of far end users. The power back off from these subcarriers is done by reducing power spectral masks at respective subcarriers. The results after simulating the proposed algorithm give significant performance advantages in terms of data rate over the traditional iterative water-filling algorithm. These results approach the performance of highly complex optimal spectrum management algorithms while maintaining the complexity of the traditional iterative water-filling algorithm.

Stability Criterion For Uncertain 2-$D$ Discrete Systems With Interval-Like Time-Varying Delay Employing Quantization/Overflow Nonlinearities, Siva Kumar Tadepalli, Venkata Krishna Rao Kandanvli, Haranath Kar
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
This paper considers the problem of global asymptotic stability of a class of two-dimensional (2-$D$) uncertain discrete systems described by the Fornasini-Marchesini second local state-space (FMSLSS) model under the influence of various combinations of quantization/overflow nonlinearities and interval-like time-varying delay in the state. The systems under consideration involve parameter uncertainties that are assumed to be deterministic and norm-bounded. A delay-dependent stability criterion is established by bounding the forward difference of the 2-$D$ Lyapunov functional using the reciprocally convex approach. The criterion is compared with a recently reported criterion.

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this paper, a novel compact T-shape defected ground structure (DGS) is proposed in order to reduce the mutual coupling between elements in a microstrip antenna array structure. The proposed DGS has considerable advantages compared to an H-shaped DGS. As is known, DGS insertion is a common problem in microstrip antenna array structures. However, the proposed T-shaped structure is more compact so it could be suitable for a compact microstrip array antenna. The T-shaped DGS is about 24% more compact than the H-shaped one. However, the most important novelty of our work is reducing mutual coupling both in the E-plane …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Railroad transportation systems are an area that poses the threat of causing huge risk for both the environment and people if an error emerges during operation. For this reason, designing and developing relevant products in this area is challenging. What is more, methods to be utilized for the purposes of minimizing risk susceptibility are to be specified by international standards. While relevant standards strongly recommend that some methods be utilized based on the desired safety integrity level during the development phase, some methods are not recommended to be utilized. CENELEC 50128 strongly recommends the utilization of timed-arc Petri nets during …

Improved Control Of A Photovoltaic Pumping System By Dtc-Svm To Optimize The Water Flow, Moulay Idriss Chergui
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
This paper deals with two different techniques of vector method-related direct torque control: the conventional (DTC-C) and the space vector modulation (DTC-SVM). Both are used for an induction motor in the photovoltaic pumping system. Based on instantaneous space vector theory, and with an optimal selection of the space voltage vectors in each sampling period, the DTC achieves effective control of the stator flux and torque. Consequently, the number of space voltage vectors and switching frequency directly influence the performance of the DTC control system, giving an advantage for a rotor position free control system. In order to improve the efficiency …

A Simple Hybrid Method For Segmenting Vessel Structures In Retinal Fundus Images, Cemal Köse
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this paper, a simple, fast, and efficient hybrid segmentation method is presented for extracting vessel structures in retinal fundus images. Basically, this hybrid approach combines circular and naive Bayes classifiers to extract blood vessels in retinal fundus images. The circular method samples pixels along the enlarging circles centered at the current pixel and classifies the current pixel as vessel or nonvessel. An elimination technique is then employed to eliminate the nonvessel fragments from the processed image. The naive Bayes method as a supervised technique uses a very small set of features to segment retinal vessels in retinal images. The …

JPEG has played an important role in the image compression field for the past two decades. Quantization tables in the JPEG scheme is a key factor that is responsible for compression/quality trade-off. Finding the optimal quantization table is an open research problem. Studies recommend the genetic algorithm to generate the optimal solution. Recent reports revealed optimal quantization table generation based on a classical genetic algorithm (CGA). Although the CGA produces better results, it shows inefficiency in terms of convergence speed and productivity of feasible solutions.

Scale Invariant And Fixed-Length Feature Extraction By Integrating Discrete Cosine Transform And Autoregressive Signal Modeling For Palmprint Identification, Burhan Ergen
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Recently, the need for automatic identification has caused researchers to focus on biometric identification methods. Palmprint-based biometric identification has several advantages such as user friendliness, low-cost capturing devices, and robustness. In this paper, a method that integrates the discrete cosine transform (DCT) and an autoregressive (AR) signal modeling is proposed for biometric identification. The method provides scale invariance and produces a fixed-length feature vector. In particular, the Burg algorithm is used for the determination of the AR parameters used as a feature vector. Experimental results demonstrate that a small number of the AR parameters that are modeling the DCT coefficients …

Reinforcement Learning-Based Mobile Robot Navigation, Ni̇hal Altuntaş, Erkan İmal, Nahi̇t Emanet, Ceyda Nur Öztürk
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In recent decades, reinforcement learning (RL) has been widely used in different research fields ranging from psychology to computer science. The unfeasibility of sampling all possibilities for continuous-state problems and the absence of an explicit teacher make RL algorithms preferable for supervised learning in the machine learning area, as the optimal control problem has become a popular subject of research. In this study, a system is proposed to solve mobile robot navigation by opting for the most popular two RL algorithms, Sarsa($\lambda )$ and Q($\lambda )$. The proposed system, developed in MATLAB, uses state and action sets, defined in a …
