A comparative analysis of BLE and 6LoWPAN for U-HealthCare applications
(
IEEE
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
For decades, there exist a variety of low-power wireless technologies deployed for healthcare applications such as Zigbee/IEEE802.15.4, Bluetooth, ANT, NFC, IrDA. However, the recently announced Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) ...
Study of voltage source converter-based HVDC system during DC side faults
(
IEEE
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
Recently voltage source converter-based HVDC technology has witnessed a remarkable development due to the several advantages it exhibits over the conventional HVDC systems. However, one of the main remaining challenges is ...
Adaptive Network Coding over Cognitive Relay Networks
(
IEEE
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
We consider network coded cooperation for cognitive relay networks. The primary system comprises multiple sources and multiple destinations, whereas the secondary system comprises multiple sources, multiple relays and a ...
An improved predictive control approach for Multilevel Inverters
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
This paper proposes a flexible predictive control strategy for flying capacitors based Multi-Level Inverters (MLIs). The proposed controller, applied for a Flying Capacitors Inverter (FCI) and a Modular Multilevel Converter ...
Enhanced compact models for the connected subgraph problem and for the shortest path problem in digraphs with negative cycles
(2013 , Article)
We investigate the minimum-weight connected subgraph problem. The importance of this problem stems from the fact that it constitutes the backbone of many network design problems having applications in several areas including ...
Novel immunoassay technique for rapid measurement of intracellular proteins using paramagnetic particles
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2013 , Article)
Magnetic immunoassays have been shown to have similar detection limits to conventional immunoassays, with the advantage of reduced total assay time. The aim of this study was to demonstrate that an integrated lysis and ...
Matching Face Images Taken on the Same Day or Months Apart: the Limitations of Photo ID
(
John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
, 2013 , Article)
It is well-established that matching images of unfamiliar faces is rather error prone. However, there is an important mismatch between face matching in laboratory and realistic settings. All of the currently available ...
Multi-module Bi-directional Buck-Boost Inverter-based HVDC back-to-back transmission system
(
IEEE
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
Offshore wind energy is now seen as a key contributor to the renewable energy future. HVDC technology is among the chief technologies enabling widespread use of offshore wind. This paper proposes a new configuration, namely, ...
A novel open-stator-winding DFIM flywheel architecture for renewable energy applications
(
IEEE
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
Energy storage is becoming a basic component of modern renewable power plants, especially wind farms. For several considerations, local wind turbine (WT) energy storage is preferred. Flywheel energy storage is among the ...
AC solid state circuit breakers for fault current limitation in distributed generation
(
IEEE
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
The solid state circuit breaker (SSCB) is a protective device used in power systems to provide protection against short circuit. The objective of this paper is to study and implement a simplified prototype of SSCB as a ...
