Care of critically ill patient requires prompt & accurate decisions so that life-protecting and lifesaving therapy can be properly applied. Because of these requirements, ICUs have become widely established in hospitals. Difficulty found in most hospitals is that expert has to frequently visit the patient and checks condition of the patient by measuring different parameters. This paper presents...
This paper describes special Ka- and Q-band receiver for the Alphasat signal developed for the Institute of Atmospheric Physics (IAP) Prague and first operational experiences with it. The signal level monitoring enables us to derive the atmospheric attenuation which is object of our research (its statistics and relation to relevant meteorological parameters like rain, liquid water content (LWC) and...
Sleeping is one of the most important activities in our daily lives. However, very few people really understand their sleeping habits, which affect sleep-related diseases such as sleep apnea, back problems or even snoring. Most current techniques that monitor, predict and quantify sleep postures are limited to use in hospitals and/or need the intervention of caregivers. In this paper, we describe...
Intruder Detection is needed in order to monitor sensitive passages or gateways. These passages are usually existing in airports, police stations, government buildings, courts or even in special laboratories, like nuclear or chemical laboratories. For security or safety purposes, nobody is usually allowed to walk through these passages without permission and during the working hours. Video streaming...
This project work involves trickle implantation observing framework for use in hospitals. The framework comprises of a drip infusion, sugar level observing gadgets and a monitoring screen. The mixture observing gadget utilizing a pressure sensor (MPX10GP) technology module can identify the trickle implantation rate and a vacant imbuement arrangement sack, and after that, this information is sent to...
In order to foster the development of Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) for land navigation services, there is a pressing need for providing a trust level of the localization solution, especially for liability critical applications. In view of such need, integrity monitoring aims to compute protection levels that successfully bounds positioning errors in nominal conditions. Conventional Receiver...
Near Vertical Incidence Skywave communication solutions are known to be reliable and quickly deployable, but modeling a suitable radio link requires a good prediction of the ionosphere behavior and insights regarding ionospheric propagation. Within the framework of the national PN-II SIRIUS project, the Technical University of Cluj-Napoca has acquired, installed, and employed the NovAtel GPStation-6...
In this work, we propose a novel wireless time-reversal indoor events detection system (TRIEDS). By leveraging the time-reversal (TR) technique to capture the changes of channel state information (CSI) in the indoor environment, TRIEDS enables low-complexity single-antenna devices that operate in the ISM band to perform through-the-wall multiple events detection. In TRIEDS, each indoor event is detected...
Information distribution regarding immediately correlated contents is a big challenge in local communities, such as a university campus. One of the main reasons is that a campus' local network is uncovered by public search engines, and most of the local Web sites in a community operate like information silos. A secondary reason is that the daily activities in a local community are highly dynamic,...
This paper proposes the use of Ultra-Wide Band (UWB) technology to detect falls in smart home environment. A bi-static setup is proposed in which the UWB sensor including both transmitter and receiver is mounted over the ceiling to monitor and detect falls among other types of inertial movements such as slow/fast walking and lying down. The experimental results show that the proposed approach can...
A Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) is a system that monitors the air pressure and temperature in the tires, and reports real-time information to the driver via wireless communication for vehicle safety and efficiency. On the other hand, several privacy issues regarding TPMS have been reported at the same time. Most of the current TPMSs do not support cryptographic modules for security of the...
Trash Collection and management in residential locality is the basic considerations referred to in Smart Cities. The concept of trash collection in India is quite tedious. For efficient trash collection, we use the concept of Internet of Things (IOT) which acts as a backbone Technology. Surveillance systems can be used to improve Quality of Service in Trash collection. “This paper proposes an advanced...
One of the main challenges for wireless body area networks (WBANs) is to evaluate realistic methods to generate channel models for new different purposes and various environments quickly and flexibly. Finite integration technique (FIT) has shown to be promising method for modeling channels characteristics in WBAN deployment scenarios. Applying simulation based channel modeling on the performance evaluations...
The major threats witnessed by mankind in recent years, demands very accurate and trustworthy personal tracking system (PTS). Using the advancement in the current technology, it becomes a promising solution to meet the above requirement. In this research, an attempt is made to integrate both GPS and GSM technologies to detect and track the position of the target (mankind). Initially, the position...
The need for efficient public transportation system such as buses is rapidly increased due to the increasing in population, the passengers need to know the accurate arrival time of the particular bus to particular station and then plan their journey from their home. Fuel monitoring have been the major problem that most of bus companies looking to solve. This paper developed a bus tracking and monitoring...
In the past years, huge data is passing through internet and this demands renovation to the TCP/IP networks. Information centric network is suggested to resolve limitation of address based communication in TCP/IP network. As one of ICN architecture, data transmission in Named Data Network (NDN) is performed by address based content pulling. To pull content, packets that contains content name are forwarded...
Ionospheric scintillation monitoring is becoming an increasing research activity in order to devise countermeasures to the harmful effects ionospheric activity has on positioning services based on Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS). The amount of amplitude fluctuations in GNSS signals due to scintillation is estimated by the �������� index. For this purpose, traditional closed loop architectures...
With the growing need of the time systems are becoming more and more sophisticated. Simple systems are changing drastically into more useful and complicated systems. Computer networks saw a major change from wired to wireless networks and quick wireless infrastructure became a new trend. Among many other wireless networks emerged MANET. Because of dynamic topology and no centralization, traditional...
Abstract-Public-cloud providers do not disclose quantitative information about the performance of their inter- datacenter networks in spite of their importance and of the growing interest they are attracting. In this paper we propose an analysis of the inter-datacenter network of the two leading providers-Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure- only leveraging active monitoring approaches and thus...
In this work, we concern ourselves with the security of drone systems under jamming-based attacks. The focus is on design and synthesis structure with the anti-jamming security needs of drone systems. We explore a relatively new concept known as hardware sandboxing, to provide runtime monitoring of boundary signals and isolation through resource virtualization for non-trusted system-on-chip (SoC)...
