Performance Analysis of Best suited Adaptive Equalization Algorithm for Optical Communication

Fiber optics is one of the highest bandwidth communication channel types in the current communication industry. The paper is to analyze a typical optical channel and perform channel equalization using an adaptive modified DFE with Activity Detection Guidance and Tap Decoupling algorithm. Evaluation can be made on the employment of the DFE algorithm and with enhancements, like Fractionally-Spaced equalization and Activity Detection Guidance, to improve its stability, steady-state error performance and convergence rate. The successful implementation of the Adaptive FS-DFE with ADG and TD technique offers an excellent alternative to linear equalization, which is known to be of little benefit for optical channels because of exorbitant noise enhancement. The FSE technique, when combined with the DFE, would offer improved effectiveness to amplitude distortion. As the impulse response of a typical optical link would have regions that are essentially zero, the employment of the activity detection scheme with Tap Decoupling would further enhance the steady-state error performance and convergence rate.

Web-Based Learning and Training for Virtual Metrology Lab

The use of World Web Wide for distance education has received increasing attention over the past decades. The real challenge of adapting this technology for engineering education and training is to facilitate the laboratory experiments via Internet. In the sciences, measurement plays an important role. The accuracy of the measurement, as well as the units, help scientists to better understand phenomena occurring in nature. This paper introduces Metrology educators to the use and adoption of Java-applets in order to create virtual, online Metrology laboratories for students. These techniques have been used to successfully form a laboratory course which augments the more conventional lectures in concepts of Metrology course at Faculty of Engineering, Albaha University, KSA. Improvements of the package are still undergoing to incorporate Web-based technologies (Internet home page, HTML, Java programming etc...). This Web-based education and training has been successfully class-tested within an undergraduate preliminary year engineering course and students reported a positive experience with its use. The use of these labs should be self-explanatory and their reliable operation has been thoroughly tested.

Effect of Weighting Scheme to QoS Properties in Web Service Discovery

Specifying QoS properties can limit the selection of some good web services that the user will have considered; this is because the algorithm used strictly ensures that there is a match between QoS properties of the consumer with that of the available services. This is to say that, a situation may arise that some services might not have all that the user specifies but are rated high in those they have. With some tradeoffs specified in form of weight, these services will be made available to the user for consideration. This assertion is from the fact that, the user's requirements for the specified QoS properties are of varying degree i.e. he will always prefer one ahead of the other. This can be captured in form of weight i.e. the one preferred most will have the highest weight. If a consumer specifies light weight for those QoS properties that a web service is deficient in and high weight for those it has, this will minimize the difference between them. Hence the service can be returned.

An Improved Fixed Switching Frequency Direct Torque Control of Induction Motor Drives Fed by Direct Matrix Converter

A few papers have been interested by the fixed switching frequency direct torque control fed by direct matrix converters, where we can find just the use of direct torque controlled space vector modulated method. In this present paper, we present an improved method used for a fixed switching frequency direct torque control (DTC) using a direct matrix converter (DMC). This method is characterized by a simple structure, a fixed switching frequency which causes minimal torque ripple and a unity input power factor. Using this strategy, we combine the direct matrix converters advantages with those of direct torque control (DTC) schemes. The used technique for constant frequency is combined with the input current space vector to create the switching table of direct matrix converter (DMC). Simulation results clearly demonstrate a better dynamic and steady state performances of the proposed method.

A Computational Algorithm for Metrical Classification of Verse

The science of versification and analysis of verse in Sanskrit is governed by rules of metre or chandas. Such metre-wise classification of verses has numerous uses for scholars and researchers alike, such as in the study of poets and their style of Sanskrit poetical works. This paper presents a comprehensive computational scheme and set of algorithms to identify the metre of verses given as Sanskrit (Unicode) or English E-text (Latin Unicode). The paper also demonstrates the use of euphonic conjunction rules to correct verses in which these conjunctions, which are compulsory in verse, have erroneously not been implemented.

Modelling of Human Glottis in VLSI for Low Power Architectures

The Glottal Source is an important component of voice as it can be considered as the excitation signal to the voice apparatus. Nowadays, new techniques of speech processing such as speech recognition and speech synthesis use the glottal closure and opening instants. Current models of the glottal waves derive their shape from approximate information rather than from exactly measured data. General method concentrate on assessment of the glottis opening using optical, acoustical methods, or on visualization of the larynx position using ultrasound, computer tomography or magnetic resonance imaging techniques. In this work, circuit model of Human Glottis using MOS is designed by exploiting fluid volume velocity to current, fluid pressure to voltage, and linear and nonlinear mechanical impedances to linear and nonlinear electrical impedances. The glottis modeled as current source includes linear, non-linear impedances to represent laminar and turbulent flow respectively, in vocal tract. The MOS modelling and simulation results of glottal circuit has been carried out on BSIM 3v3 model in TSMC 0.18 micrometer technology using ELDO simulator.

Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Extended Kalman Filtering for Robot Localization

Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) has been a popular approach to localization a mobile robot. However, the performance of the EKF and the quality of the estimation depends on the correct a priori knowledge of process and measurement noise covariance matrices (Qk and Rk, respectively). Imprecise knowledge of these statistics can cause significant degradation in performance. This paper proposed the development of an Adaptive Neuro- Fuzzy Extended Kalman Filtering (ANFEKF) for localization of robot. The Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy attempts to estimate the elements of Qk and Rk matrices of the EKF algorithm, at each sampling instant when measurement update step is carried out. The ANFIS supervises the performance of the EKF with the aim of reducing the mismatch between the theoretical and actual covariance of the innovation sequences. The free parameters of ANFIS are trained using the steepest gradient descent (SD) to minimize the differences of the actual value of the covariance of the residual with its theoretical value as much possible. The simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

A General Simulation Framework for Supply Chain Modeling: State of the Art and Case Study

Nowadays there is a large availability of discrete event simulation software that can be easily used in different domains: from industry to supply chain, from healthcare to business management, from training to complex systems design. Simulation engines of commercial discrete event simulation software use specific rules and logics for simulation time and events management. Difficulties and limitations come up when commercial discrete event simulation software are used for modeling complex real world-systems (i.e. supply chains, industrial plants). The objective of this paper is twofold: first a state of the art on commercial discrete event simulation software and an overview on discrete event simulation models development by using general purpose programming languages are presented; then a Supply Chain Order Performance Simulator (SCOPS, developed in C++) for investigating the inventory management problem along the supply chain under different supply chain scenarios is proposed to readers.

Propose a Fuzzy Queuing Maximal Benefit Location Problem

This paper presents a fuzzy queuing location model for congested system. In a queuing system there are different criteria that are not constant such as service rate, service rate demand, queue length, the occupancy probability of a service center and Probability of joining the queue line. In this paper with fuzzifying all of these variables, will try to reach an accurate real problem. Finally we change the problem to a single objective function and as far as this model is in NP-Hard classification we will use genetic algorithm for solving it and ant colony for comparison is used for their results and run time.

An approximate analytical (structural) superposition in terms of two, or more, "alfa"-circuits of the same topology: Pt.1 - description of the superposition

One-ports named "f-circuits", composed of similar conductors described by a monotonic polynomial, or quasi-polynomial (i.e. with positive but not necessarily integer, powers) characteristic i = f(v) are studied, focusing on the algebraic map f --> F. Here F(.) is the input conductivity characteristic; i.e., iin = F(vin) is the input current. The "power-law" "alfa-circuit" introduced in [1], for which f(v) ~ v^"alfa", is an important particular case. By means of a generalization of a parallel connection, the f-circuits are constructed from the alfa-circuits of the same topology, with different "alfa", so that the given topology is kept, and 'f' is an additive function of the connection. We observe and consider an associated, generally approximated, but, in all of the cases studied, always high-precision, specific superposition. This superposition is in terms of f --> F, and it means that F(.) of the connection is close to the sum of the input currents of the independent "alfa"-circuits, all connected in parallel to the same source. In other words, F(.) is well approximated by a linear combination of the same degrees of the independent variable as in f(.), i.e. the map of the characteristics f --> F is close to a linear one. This unexpected result is useful for understanding nonlinear algebraic circuits, and is missed in the classical theory. The cases of f(v) = D1v + D2v^2 and f(v) = D1v + D3v^3, are analyzed in examples. Special topologies when the superposition must be ideal, are also considered. In the second part [2] of the work the "circuit mechanism" that is responsible for the high precision of the superposition, in the most general case, will be explained.

An approximate analytical (structural) superposition in terms of two, or more, "alfa"-circuits of the same topology: Pt. 2 - the "internal circuit mechanism"

This is the second part, after [1], of the research devoted to analysis of 1-ports composed of similar conductors ("f-circuits") described by the characteristic i = f(v) of a polynomial type. This analysis is performed by means of the power-law "alfa"-circuits" introduced in [2], for which f(v) ~ v^"alfa". The f-circuits are constructed from the "alfa"-circuits of the same topology, with the proper "alfa", so that the given topology is kept, and 'f' is an additive function of the connection. Explaining the situation described in detail in [1], we note and analyze a simple "circuit mechanism" that causes the difference between the input current of the f-circuit and the sum of the input currents of the f-circuits before the composition to be relatively small. The case of two degrees, f(v) = Dmv^m + Dnv^n, m unequal n, is treated in the main proofs. Some simulations are presented, and some boundaries for the error of the superposition are found. The cases of f(.) being a polynomial of the third or fourth degrees are finally briefly considered.

Plagiarism Detection Using Graph-Based Representation

Plagiarism of material from the Internet is a widespread and growing problem. Several methods used to detect the plagiarism and similarity between the source document and suspected documents such as fingerprint based on character or n-gram. In this paper, we discussed a new method to detect the plagiarism based on graph representation; however, Preprocessing for each document is required such as breaking down the document into its constituent sentences. Segmentation of each sentence into separated terms and stop word removal. We build the graph by grouping each sentence terms in one node, the resulted nodes are connected to each other based on order of sentence within the document, all nodes in graph are also connected to top level node "Topic Signature". Topic signature node is formed by extracting the concepts of each sentence terms and grouping them in such node. The main advantage of the proposed method is the topic signature which is main entry for the graph is used as quick guide to the relevant nodes. which should be considered for the comparison between source documents and suspected one. We believe the proposed method can achieve a good performance in terms of effectiveness and efficiency.

Crosstalk Noise Modeling for RC and RLC interconnects in Deep Submicron VLSI Circuits

The crosstalk noise model for noise constrained interconnects optimization is presented for RC interconnects. The proposed model has simple closed-form expressions, which is capable of predicting the noise amplitude and the noise pulse width of an RC interconnect as well as coupling locations (near-driver and near-receiver) on victim net. This paper also presents a crosstalk noise model for both identical and non identical coupled resistance-inductance-capacitance (RLC) interconnects, which is developed based on a decoupling technique exhibiting an average error of 6.8% as compared to SPICE. The crosstalk noise model, together with a proposed concept of effective mutual inductance, is applied to evaluate the effectiveness of the shielding technique.

Prediction of Retained Capacity and EODV of Li-ion Batteries in LEO Spacecraft Batteries

In resent years ANN is widely reported for modeling in different areas of science including electro chemistry. This includes modeling of different technological batteries such as lead acid battery, Nickel cadmium batteries etc. Lithium ion batteries are advance battery technology which satisfy most of the space mission requirements. Low earth orbit (LEO)space craft batteries undergo large number of charge discharge cycles (about 25000 cycles)compared to other ground level or space applications. This study is indented to develop ANN model for about 25000 cycles, cycled under various temperature, Depth Of Discharge (DOD) settings with constant charge voltage limit to predict the retained capacity and End of Discharge Voltage (EODV). To extract firm conclusion and distinguish the capability of ANN method, the predicted values are compared with experimental result by statistical method and Bland Altman plot.

Modelling and Design of a Microstrip Band-Pass Filter Using Space Mapping Techniques

Determination of design parameters based on electromagnetic simulations of microwave circuits is an iterative and often time-consuming procedure. Space mapping is a powerful technique to optimize such complex models by efficiently substituting accurate but expensive electromagnetic models, fine models, with fast and approximate models, coarse models. In this paper, we apply two space mapping, an explicit space mapping as well as an implicit and response residual space mapping, techniques to a case study application, a microstrip band-pass filter. First, we model the case study application and optimize its design parameters, using explicit space mapping modelling approach. Then, we use implicit and response residual space mapping approach to optimize the filter's design parameters. Finally, the performance of each design methods is evaluated. It is shown that the use of above-mentioned techniques leads to achieving satisfactory design solutions with a minimum number of computationally expensive fine model evaluations.

Clustering of Content Supporting Computer Mediated Courseware Development

Computer Mediated Courseware (CMC) has been developed so far for individual courses considering single or multiple text books. A group of courseware can be developed by using multiple text books and in this case, it is a requirement to cluster the contents of different books to form a generalized clustered content. No work has been found to develop courseware applying generalized clustered content. We have proposed a clustering of content supporting computer mediated courseware development based on data mining techniques to construct a hierarchical general structure of a group of courseware combining the individual structure of a set of books. The clustering will help the courseware developer to dynamically allocate contents to develop different courses using a group of books. The authors have applied this methodology for different level of courses on database. The methodology is generalized and can be applied to any other courses.
