Condition assessment of sewer pipelines using multi attribute utility theory (MAUT)
(
International Society for Trenchless Technology
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Many municipalities rely on the interpretation of Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) inspection reports to arrive to a condition assessment grade for the inspected sewer pipelines. The grades stand as a key for decision ...
Theoretical investigation on the effect of individual stage-gain selection on the 3-dB bandwidth of three-op-Amp difference amplifiers
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
The differential gain of a three-op-Amp difference amplifier is determined by the product of the gain values of its two stages. Usually, the total desired differential gain is assigned to the first stage while the gain of ...
Development of LPV models and switching LPV-H ? controller for a hydraulic system
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
This paper describes the development of linear parameter varying (LPV) models and an LPV-H ? controller for one degree of freedom (DoF) electro-hydraulic systems. A virtual set-up consists of a hydraulic actuator driven ...
Error probability analysis of energy harvesting relay-Aided cooperative network using hierarchical modulation
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we investigate the performance of energy harvesting relay-Aided cooperative system wherein, the source node transmits hierarchical signal to the relay and destination nodes. But, since in cooperative networks ...
Using conceptual reasoning for inconsistencies detection in islamic advisory opinion (Fatwas)
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
The Islamic websites play an important role in disseminating Islamic knowledge and information about Islamic ruling. Their number and the content they provide is continuously increasing which require in-depth investigations ...
Cooperative Secondary Users selection in Cognitive Radio Ad Hoc Networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Secondary Users (SUs) have capability to sense available licensed spectrum in Cognitive Radio Networks (CRNs). Hence, SUs can opportunistically access to the licensed spectrum without disturbing Primary Users (PUs). In ...
Estimation of algae concentration in water solutions using spectrophotometry measurements and absorbance first derivative
(
TechConnect
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
The monitoring and detection of algae in wastewater and surface solutions is important in controlling the quality of surface water and wastewater, yet there is currently no quick and simple method to achieve this. The ...
Energy-efficient based on cluster selection and trust management in cooperative spectrum sensing
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Cooperative spectrum sensing (CSS) has been proposed as a solution for radio spectrum resources scarcity problem. Clustering technique is introduced to increase the performance of CSS and overcome the shadowing and fading ...
A four-switch based long-cable-fed five-phase induction motor drive system
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In applications where motors are fed from low voltage variable-frequency drive (VFD) through long cables, a step up transformer is commonly used to boost the converter output voltage in order to compensate for the cable ...
Using block cipher for confidentiality of images in cloud-based systems
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
This paper deals with outsourcing of computing to cloud servers where clients' images are computed and stored. It proposes a technique that obfuscates images before sending them to servers. Cloud servers can perform ...
