Human action recognition system proposed here recognizes the behavior of a person in real-time. The system aims at communicating the recognized gestures with the camera system. The proposed system initiates on identifying the human action provided in the database and it sends the trigger signals to the camera system so as to record and store the video stream within the system. The video stream is...
In this paper. Berenger's twelve split-formtime-domain-PML equations have been reduced to only six unsplit-form equations by rearranging the constitutive parameters of the PML region. The modified PML equations have two advantages, viz., a) computer time and memory savings and, b) ease of implementation. The disadvantage is that the interface between free space and PML region is no longer perfectly...
Transient faults are a matter of increasing concern as advanced technologies scales to smaller and smaller feature technologies. Transient errors are random faults of the hardware, which also called as soft errors. Single Event Transients (SETs) are major part of the error events which will continue to grow in the next technology nodes and affect the system functionality. Varieties of electronic products...
The latest trend in the design of electronic embedded systems focuses on technology integration with a domestic utility concept. Automated classification of advertisement videos from the general program videos is emerging as an essential task that is expected to support the television (TV) viewers to have a seamless visual experience without being hampered by commercial advertisement videos (ADD)...
This paper proposes a systematic approach to explore the search space of control parameters on an existing water network in a locality within Mysore, India, to see if continuous water supply can be provided to meet a nominal diurnal demand pattern. The control parameters are the initial states of the reservoirs at some reference hour and hourly maximum flow rates across control valves. The system...
We propose a singly-fed planar inverted-F antenna (PIFA), with double-shorting planes and a tapered patch for radiating circular polarization. FEKO® simulations are employed to optimize the geometry of the antenna. The antenna prototype resonates at 2.52GHz and has a measured impedance bandwidth of around 240MHz. The calculated 3dB axial ratio bandwidth falls within the impedance bandwidth, demonstrating...
A force sensor is designed, which consists of a Photonic Crystal (PC) ring resonator integrated on top of a 220nm thick Silicon microcantilever. The quality factor(Q) of the resonator is improved by fine tuning the size of holes inside the hexagonal ring resonator. This force sensor with high Q PC ring resonator is subjected to Finite Element Method (FEM) simulations under various forces below 1microNewton...
We discuss the design and preliminary results of an IoT based system for management of the water distribution system in a large campus. In particular, we focus on two specific components of the system: a low cost ultrasonic based water level sensor and a sub-GHz based campus scale wireless network to connect the sensors. We describe techniques to achieve a large sensing distance that makes them suitable...
Moving objects often contain almost important information for surveillance videos, traffic monitoring, human motion capture etc. Background subtraction methods are widely exploited for moving object detection in videos in many applications. Moving object segmentation is the application in video processing. Segmentation helps in detecting various features of moving objects for further video/image processing...
MRAS estimators have become increasingly popular due to their ease of computational usage, flexibility and accurateness in determining the rotor speed of induction motors without speed sensors mounted on the shaft. This paper considers the three most popularly used configurations of MRAS Speed Estimators i.e., Rotor Flux, Back-EMF and Instantaneous Reactive power. The dynamic performance of the same...
In this paper comparative analysis is carried out for power transmission, for line of 1200km length at 50Hz and 50/3Hz. Test system of 765kV and 1200kV are selected as two transmission voltage levels. Simulation is carried out on test system over Matlab simulink environment. In steps of 25%, computation of sending & receiving end voltages, active power transfer capacity, power factor and compensation...
3D content streaming and rendering system has attracted a significant attention from both academia and industry. However, these systems struggle to provide comparable quality to that of locally stored and rendered 3D data. Since the rendered 3D content on to the client machine is controlled by the users, their interactions have a strong impact on the performance of 3D content streaming and rendering...
Statistics show that the figure of new cancer cases and deaths reported each year are increasing considerably. The current situation demands an efficient targeted drug delivery system that enables localized drug administration which can be externally controlled. This paper proposes a remotely triggered targeted drug delivery system that is capable of providing drugs to multiple patients in a periodic...
Metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitors for DRAM applications have been realised using stacked TiO2-ZrO2(TiO2/ZrO2 and ZrO2/TiO2) and Si-doped ZrO2 (TiO2/Si-doped ZrO2) dielectrics. High capacitance densities (> 42 fF/ μm2), low leakage current densities (< 5×10−7A/cm2 at −1 V), and sub-nm EOT (< 0.8 nm) have been achieved. The effects of constant voltage stress on the device characteristics...

In this paper an Automatic Generation Control (AGC) scheme that includes price based demand response scheme is proposed. The price based demand response scheme finds the optimal...
In this article an attempt is made to study the highly complex and is characterized by high content of organic, inorganic and chromium, suspended solids and dissolved solids present in Tannery waste water. Treatment of tannery waste water is carried out by physical, chemical, biological or the combination of these methods. Up flow anaerobic sludge Banked Reactor (UASB) exhibited better performance...
Developed agriculture needs to find new ways to improve efficiency. One approach is to utilise available information technologies in the form of more intelligent machines to reduce and target energy inputs in more effective ways than in the past. Precision Farming has shown benefits of this approach but we can now move towards a new generation of equipment. [1]The advent of autonomous system architectures...
An efficient mass classification system for breast cancer in digital mammogram based on Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) and Stochastic Neighbor Embedding (SNE) technique is presented in this paper. The mass classification in digital mammogram is achieved by decomposing the mammogram image by using DWT at various levels. Then the high dimensional wavelet coefficients are reduced by using SNE. The...
The critical current density, , in high-quality single crystals of iron-based superconductors (IBS) has reached larger than at 4.2 K.
