Design of wideband antenna using interdigital capacitance
A pair of wideband antenna serve as an impedance transformer for the proposed antenna, which consists of a dipole with periodic capacitive loading. Periodic capacitive loading is achieved at each sector by adding interlaced coupling lines. In order to create a broad impedance bandwidth, the periodic interlaced coupling lines split each arm of the dipole into five portions. Currents are dispersed on the various sections at different frequencies. The suggested antenna is an excellent choice for radar applications since it has a high gain and a low amount of cross polarisation. With the aid of innovative design methods including codirectional inclusion of interdigital capacitance, this research study proposes an interdigital capacitance for wideband (WB) applications interdigital capacitor (IDC). The suggested IDC antenna, which works between 4.70 and 11 GHz, has dimensions of 6.36x6.35x1.6 mm3. This page explores in-depth data on gain over frequency, far field patterns, and surface current distribution on antennas. The suggested antenna's feasibility is shown by simulation data that demonstrates excellent equality on return loss
Self-balancing robot: modeling and comparative analysis between PID and linear quadratic regulator
A two-wheeled self-balancing robot (TWSBR) is an underactuated system that is inherently nonlinear and unstable. While many control methods have been introduced to enhance the performance, there is no unique solution when it comes to hardware implementation as the robot’s stability is highly dependent on accuracy of sensors and robustness of the electronic control systems. In this study, a TWSBR that is controlled by an embedded NI myRIO-1900 board with LabVIEW-based control scheme is developed. We compare the performance between proportional-integral-derivative (PID) and linear quadratic regulator (LQR) schemes which are designed based on the TWSBR’s model that is constructed from Newtonian principles. A hybrid PID-LQR scheme is then proposed to compensate for the individual components’ limitations. Experimental results demonstrate the PID is more effective at regulating the tilt angle of the robot in the presence of external disturbances, but it necessitates a higher velocity to sustain its equilibrium. The LQR on the other hand outperforms PID in terms of maximum initial tilt angle. By combining both schemes, significant improvements can be observed, such as an increase in maximum initial tilt angle and a reduction in settling time
Breast invasive ductal carcinoma diagnosis using machine learning models and Gabor filter method of histology images
Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer in women and the leading cause of death from a malignant growth in the world. Machine learning methods have been created to help with cancer detection accuracy. There are several methods for detecting cancer. Histopathological images are more accurate. In this study, we employed the Gabor filter to extract statistical features from invasive ductal carcinoma histopathology images. From the histopathological images, we chose 100, 200, 400, 1000, and 2000 at random. These statistical features were used to train several models to classify these images as malignant or benign, including the decision tree, quadratic discriminant analysis, extra randomized trees, gradient boosting, Gaussian process, Naive Bayes, nearest centroid, multilayer perceptron, and support vector machine. The models' accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, precision, and F1_score were examined. The models produced the highest results when there were 100 images and a wavenumber of 0.2. While as the number of images increased, the models' effectiveness reduced. The most obvious finding to emerge from this study is that we suggest using deep learning instead of machine learning models for large datasets
Heart failure prediction based on random forest algorithm using genetic algorithm for feature selection
A disorder or illness called heart failure results in the heart becoming weak or damaged. In order to avoid heart failure early on, it is crucial to understand the causes of heart failure. Based on validation, two experimental processing steps will be applied to the dataset of clinical records related to heart failure. Testing will be done in the first step utilizing six different classification algorithms, including K-nearest neighbor, neural network, random forest, decision tree, Naïve Bayes, and support vector machine (SVM). Cross-validation was employed to conduct the test. According to the results, the random forest algorithm performed better than the other five algorithms in tests employing the algorithm. Subsequent testing uses an algorithm with the best accuracy value, which will then be tested again using split validation with varying split ratios and genetic algorithms as a selection feature. The value generated from testing using the genetic algorithm selection feature is better than the random forest algorithm alone, which is recorded to produce an accuracy value of 93.36% in predicting the survival of heart failure patients
Turbo encoder and decoder chip design and FPGA device analysis for communication system
Turbo codes are error-correcting codes with performance that is close to the Shannon theoretical limit (SHA). The motivation for using turbo codes is that the codes are an appealing mix of a random appearance on the channel and a physically realizable decoding structure. The communication systems have the problem of latency, fast switching, and reliable data transfer. The objective of the research paper is to design and turbo encoder and decoder hardware chip and analyze its performance. Two convolutional codes are concatenated concurrently and detached by an interleaver or permuter in the turbo encoder. The expected data from the channel is interpreted iteratively using the two related decoders. The soft (probabilistic) data about an individual bit of the decoded structure is passed in each cycle from one elementary decoder to the next, and this information is updated regularly. The performance of the chip is also verified using the maximum a posteriori (MAP) method in the decoder chip. The performance of field-programmable gate array (FPGA) hardware is evaluated using hardware and timing parameters extracted from Xilinx ISE 14.7. The parallel concatenation offers a better global rate for the same component code performance, and reduced delay, low hardware complexity, and higher frequency support

Analysis of frequency dependent Vedic chanting and its influence on neural activity of humans
In this paper a novel methodology is proposed to identify and to compare the frequency range of different Vedic chantings from Rig Veda, Yajur Veda, Atharva Veda and Sama Veda. Nowadays in spite of busy schedule and hectic work, the human beings are mostly stressed. To get rid from this stressed state, one of the best solutions is listening Vedic chantings. The alpha brainwaves are in the frequency range of 8-12 Hz under giving relaxation to stressed human being. Three selected samples from each Veda have been processed through the simulation compiler Praat and the parameters like spectral response, pitch, intensity, formants and pulses have observed. In the above identified parameters, the frequency in intensity calculation is taken for each sample. This frequency is compared with the brainwaves for which the frequencies are in the ranges of 0 Hz to >27 Hz (alpha, beta, gamma, theta and delta). The extracted signal frequencies from Vedic chantings are compared with frequencies of brainwaves. Among the four Vedas, the frequencies extracted from Sama Veda lies in alpha frequency range. The remaining is fluctuating from alpha
Security of software defined networks: evolution and challenges
In software-defined networking (SDN), network traffic is managed by software controllers or application programming interfaces (APIs) rather than hardware components. It differs from traditional networks, which use switches and routers to control traffic. Using SDN, you can create and control virtual networks or traditional hardware networks. Furthermore, OpenFlow allows network administrators to control exact network behavior through centralized control of packet forwarding. For these reasons, SDN has advantages over certain security issues, unlike traditional networks. However, most of the existing vulnerabilities and security threats in the traditional network also impact the SDN network. This document presents the attacks targeting the SDN network and the solutions that protect against these attacks. In addition, we introduce a variety of SDN security controls, such as intrusion detection systems (IDS)/intrusion prevention system (IPS), and firewalls. Towards the end, we outline a conclusion and perspectives
