An epilepsy classification system using electrocardiogram (ECG) data will ease the process of diagnosis. In epileptic patients, the seizures affect Heart Rate Variability (HRV). This emphasizes the importance of autonomic function changes in diagnosing epilepsy. The present work proposes an algorithm that classifies a person as epileptic or nonepileptic using ECG signal. Time Domain Features (TDF)...
To reduce the interference problems from nearby communication systems within an ultrawideband, the requirement for an efficient band notched design is increased. The proposed triple band notch antenna array is a coplanar waveguide fed radiator with inbuilt notching resonators, etched to achieve desired band rejection. Three different notch antennas, each corresponds to a specific band rejection are...

This paper focuses on testing the motor insulation with a secondary insulation made up of polymer nano-composites in addition to the primary one. Twisted pair samples are used to investigate the motor winding behaviour. Modified polyester is the primary insulation here. The primary insulation is subjected to direct testing and the breakdown voltage is determined. Then a secondary insulation layer...
The quasi-Z-source cascaded multilevel inverter (QZS-CMI) have the advantages of minimum switches, balanced dc-link voltage, voltage boost capability and save one-third modules compared to conventional voltage and current source inverter. This system combines the QZS-CMI and energy storage by adding an energy stored battery in each module to balance the fluctuations of PV power. The voltage boost/...
