Internet of Things (IoT) is a fast emerging technology that gained momentum steadily and shaped the future of the smart world. It has been created from the curiosity of human beings to provide comfortable and connected lifestyles with the mitigation of labor and therein promptly reduces the errors. This led to the usage of smart devices in everyday activities and thus enhances the efficacy of all smart applications. Smart applications include smart farming, healthcare, smart grid, smart city, and more. The application of IoT in monitoring the smart campus is an inevitable one to monitor the attendance of students and monitoring other activitieson the campus to protect the students and improve the education standards. Most education institutes use smart classrooms to achieve the aforementioned quality. Smart classrooms include audio-visual aids, multimedia, and smart boards along with these it is ineluctable to monitor the activities such as students’ attendance, analyzing the students-faculty performance, and content deliveries. To record the students’ attendance automatically we propose a Bluetooth-enabled IoT smart system for the positing of students with low energy utilization. The attendance can be recorded in the cloud environment by the Received signal strength indicator (RSSI). To achieve this we propose a novel IoT-based Deep Belief Neural Network (DBN) based Improved Chimp Optimization algorithm (ICO) for monitoring the attendance and positioning of the students’. An experimental study is conducted on Raspberry Pi with the deployment of Python and shows that our proposed approach provides better accuracy even with high interference signals

A Five Level Modified Cascaded H-Bridge Inverter STATCOM for Power Quality Improvement
Multilevel converters have received serious attention on account of their capability of high voltage operation, high efficiency, and low electromagnetic interference. It has many advantages compared to conventional two-level inverters such as high dc-link voltages, reduced harmonic distortion, fewer voltage stresses, and low electromagnetic interferences. The multilevel converters have been used for STATCOM widely as it can improve the power rating of the compensator to make it suitable for medium or high-voltage high power applications. While deploying multilevel STATCOMs, designer’s role is to reduce the number of switching devices since, the total switching losses are proportional to the number of switching devices. The reduction in the count of switching devices also reduces the size and cost. In this paper, a five-level modified cascaded H-bridge inverter STATCOM is proposed for mitigation of harmonics. Modified Five-level CHB configuration is the most suitable as with lesser number of switches, give better performance resulting in a compact system. The PQ theory-based controller is developed for control of STATCOM operation. MATLAB simulation results are presented to demonstrate mitigation of harmonics
Hardware Security Module Cryptosystem Using Petri Net
An embedded system is a combination of hardware and software designed to perform specific functions. It consists of SoCs (system on chip) that it relies on to do its computing work. A key feature of an embedded system is that it consumes less power and components occupy less space on the IC (integrated circuit) thus, the use of SoCs. Embedded system manufacturers get these SoCs from third-party companies to reduce their time to market. That would increase the possibility of the systems to be compromised. In this paper, we present a novel approach to securing such critical systems. For that, we made a Hardware Security Module (HSM), which consists of secure SoC with encrypt/decrypt engine that use Petri net for algorithm modulation to secure data flow. We ensure that the system uses genuine firmware and data is secured since we use encrypt/decrypt algorithms only known to manufacturers

Detecting Urban Road Changes using Segmentation and Vector Analysis
The rapid growth of urbanization is driving increased road infrastructure development. Detecting and monitoring changes in urban road areas is challenging for city planners. This research proposes using semantic segmentation and vector analysis on high-resolution images to identify road network changes. The U-Net model performs semantic segmentation, pre-trained on a Massachusetts road dataset, predicting labels for a specific area with temporal data and co-registration to reduce distortions. Predicted labels are converted to shapefiles for vector analysis. Satellite images from Google Earth archives demonstrate the change detection process. The outcome of this predictive phase was the transformation of projected labels into shapefiles, thereby facilitating vector analysis to pinpoint and characterize alterations

This paper analyzes the position control of a master-slave synchronization robotic arm driven by a D.C. motor using a PID (Proportional, Integral, and Derivative) controller with software and hardware design. This controller works to achieve the exact desired position simultaneously for the master and slave robot arm with minimal defects. The transfer function of the D.C. motor for the robotic arms used in this research is calculated with black box modelling. MATLAB Simulink block is used to test the software result. The MATLAB built-in auto-tuning method obtains Kp, Ki and Kd gain. These gains are adjusted with manual tuning to get precise angular positions for two robotic arms. This research uses Arduino Uno to act as a controller in the experiment. First, the position control of one robotic arm is tested with the same PID gain in MATLAB Simulink at different input degrees. Then, the hardware experiment of position control in one robotic arm is operated with only one PID gain at various reference degrees. Finally, the I2C communication protocol connects the master and slave robot arms. The main work that the PID controller hardware experiment with controls different level angular positions of two robotic arms
Stability Enhancement of DFIG Wind Farm Using SSSC With FOPID Controller
The wind power generation has become more important nowadays to meet the increase in power demand. DFIG based wind power generation is the recent and used in many countries due to its better power controllability. The controllers like Proportional Integral (PI) are used for the stabilization of the waveforms of the supply system. The change in controllers produces better oscillation damping in recent days. The effect of varying the wind input to generate power using the wind turbine resulting in instability in the power system because of the control is done on a grid supply. This paper aims to proposes an optimum FOPID controller for damping power system instability using a Static Synchronous Series Compensator (SSSC) system that takes into account the dynamics of wind energy conversion systems (WECS) connected to a infinite grid. The WECS model, which includes variations in wind supply to the wind turbine, has been developed to test the durability of the optimized controller that was developed to damping power system oscillations. The controller used to take the power system dynamics into account. A new controller is being designed to include a corrective measure for the damping the oscillations to adjust the instability caused by wind supply variations. The controller helps to tune the controller settings that lead to the achievement of the power oscillation damping objectives. These results are compared with conventional PMSM based wind turbine system
