In today's world, wireless communication became the master use in any technology that need transferring of data between devices in far distant places. The problems of paratrooper when they reach the land they are scattered and can't find each other's position quickly. Sometimes paratroops don't find their equipment that is thrown from the plane to the ground. The main objective of this study is to...
The modern world is facing a problem of monitoring transportation of vehicles, cargo and people. In order to prevent burglaries, to optimize logistics and to raise general safety level it is of utmost importance to find ways of tracking positions of objects. Despite the fact that a few solutions have already been provided, they all have a number of shortcomings, including the high cost, short battery...
Drone is not the only high-tech toy anymore. It has been using an onboard range of applications from civilian to military, including indoor and outdoor operations. Outdoor drone relies on GPS signal to locate its position. It is different from the indoor drone. In this paper, the indoor drone is a review in many aspects also it is current one of must interested topic for researchers who have the main...
Accidents have become one of the usual occurrences on roads throughout the world. Thousands of people lose their lives or become disabled every day. Speed limits are enforced to control the movement of vehicles along traffic lanes. As per the research statistics, violation of speed limits by the drivers is one of the significant reasons for the road accidents. Detecting the drivers who violate speed...
With the more and more serious population aging problem, the demand of long-term care is increasing. Actually, most of the aging people have the ability to take care of themselves, some warm concerns, medical advices, and timely remainders can effectively improve their living quality. Therefore, an automatic system to track and record elderly people's daily life and activities is required. In this...
Over Speed is one of the main reasons for increase in the occurrence of accidents nowadays. Many techniques are being used for over speed monitoring. However, these methods require lot of man power. In this paper, we present the design and implementation of a system, which provides a simple way to traffic authorities for monitoring of all the vehicles from the control room itself. This system calculates...
Security issues in unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) networks attract the attention of both industry and research community. This is due to the large number of attacks that can target such networks with a goal for instance to jam the communication, disturb the network operation, inject wrong data, etc. In this paper, we propose and implement a cyber security system to protect the UAVs against the most...
The next big entrant into the interconnected family of the Internet of Things (IoT) is the smartwatch, which brings together a range of functionalities hitherto provided separately by traditional watch and the smartphone. While a lot of studies have focused on the technical/security aspects of the smartwatch, not much attention has been given to the user and privacy aspects of the smartwatch. In this...
The rapid advance of synchrophasor technology and the growth of phasor measurement unit (PMU) installations in the recent years have substantially increased the feasibility of deploying practical synchrophasor applications. These novel applications need to be thoroughly evaluated before their actual implementations on real power systems. The most feasible solution is to use real-time power system...
To manage large crowded events is a very challenging task nowadays. People are looking for solutions in which they can easily monitor the crowd, trace individuals, study formation and deformation patterns of the crowd. Millions of Muslims from around the world gather and perform Hajj in Makkah, Saudi Arabia in the 12th month of every lunar year. To monitor the crowd during Hajj is a great challenge...
Time synchronization (TS) represents an important necessity for many industries in fields such as communications, manufacturing, and power systems related to electrical networks, microgrids, and renewable energies, among others, because it can ensure that cooperating processes or systems can interoperate correctly; further, the scheduling of specific tasks through a timestamp can be done. Among different...
Technical advancements allow for the development of crowd monitoring and management support systems to ensure the safety of pedestrians during large-scale events. This way, pedestrian behaviour can be monitored during events, and potential dangerous situations can be identified in a timely manner. A real-time prototype Crowd Monitoring Dashboard has been developed for a large nautical event in Amsterdam...
Autonomous platforms are confronted by a diversity of challenges in unstructured environments, which make monitoring performance a non-trivial task. Some of these environments are so complex that they preclude persistent, nearby operator oversight. This absence of oversight motivates the need for an online monitoring system, specifically for robots operating in difficult environments. We develop a...
The European Project Semester (EPS) is a one-semester capstone project/internship programme offered to engineering, product design and business undergraduates by 18 European engineering schools. EPS aims to prepare future engineers to think and act globally, by adopting project-based learning and teamwork methodologies, fostering the development of complementary skills and addressing sustainability...
In recent years, there has been a dramatic demand for stringent time/phase synchronization due to the continuing evolution of mobile network technologies. The primary reference time clock (PRTC) located in core centers provides reference time and phase synchronization signal traceable to a recognized time standard UTC(*) for other clocks within the telecommunication networks. The performance monitoring...
Calamity failures in power grid due to malfunction of traditional backup protection system was one of the main causes of unwanted cataract trips. The new technique based on synchronized PMU with fast communication network and GPS system for time transfer have a dynamic adaptation for back-up protection of power system. The goal of the protection scheme is to estimate a new wide area backup protection...
The design of agricultural machinery navigation autopilot system for practical problems includes double RTK-DGPS receiver, navigation tracking controller, intelligent control terminal, the steering Angle sensor, automatic steering control valve group and other parts. According to the functional requirements, system adopts hierarchical control strategy, through the embedded Linux software and ARM development...
Maritime boundary violation and intrusion by fishing boats has been a huge concern not only for the errant fishermen and their families but also a massive burden on governments and public alike, due to the complexity of the issue and the naivety of the people involved. The chief solution is to safe guard these fishermen from the danger which they are encountering in everyday life for their livelihood...
Based on the Pan-sensing and positioning system and the vehicle monitoring and dispatching system under GPS / GIS cooperation, designed the overall architecture of the intelligent logistics and distribution information system under the Internet of Things environment. Established the information service systems with information acquisition, processing and application capabilities by using the Pan-sensing...
With the demand for road transport of hazmat in the past few years, accidents occur frequently during the dangerous goods transportation and road transportation safety issues become increasingly prominent. Therefore, it is urgent to make full use of technical measures of information collection and transmission to monitor the state of dangerous goods. A real-time system is put forward in this paper,...
