3-D Placement Schemes of Multiple UAVs in NFP-based Wireless Networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we propose two placement strategies of multiple unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in network flying platform (NFP)-based wireless networks. The first strategy is based on a proposed distributed placement ...
Towards the design of smart video-surveillance system
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Security and monitoring systems are increasingly demanding in terms of quality, reliability and flexibility especially those dedicated to video surveillance. The aim of this study is to identify some limiting factors in ...
Virtual flux oriented sensorless direct power control of qzs inverter connected to grid for solar pv applications
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Impedance source inverters (Z-source and Quazi-Z-source (QZS)) are the promising converter topologies in the future generation because of the buck, boost and buck-boost modes of operation. In this paper, three phase voltage ...
Quality of Coverage: A Novel Approach to Coverage for Mobile Crowd Sensing Systems
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Mobile Crowd Sensing (MCS) is an effective paradigm that utilizes the crowd as an extended instrument for the purpose of collecting data. However, utilizing the crowd comes with the risks stemming from the crowd's ...
Behaviour of RC beams strengthened in shear using near surface embedded FRCM
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents an experimental study on the efficacy of a lately introduced "near surface embedded" technique (NSE) for fabric reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) for the strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) ...
Data driven feature extraction for gender classification using multi-script handwritten texts
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents a study on assessing the effectiveness of machine learned features to predict gender of writers from images of handwriting. Pre-trained Convolutional Neural Networks have been employed as feature ...
Sequence-Based Simulation Optimization: An Application to Container Terminals
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents a novel method for simulation-optimization that incorporates the sequence in which the decision variables (resource levels) are optimized. The authors hypothesize that implementing such a sequence will ...
Automatic ranking of information retrieval systems
(
Association for Computing Machinery, Inc
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Typical information retrieval system evaluation requires expensive manually-collected relevance judgments of documents, which are used to rank retrieval systems. Due to the high cost associated with collecting relevance ...
Control of High Gain Modified SEPIC Converter: A Constant Switching Frequency Modulation Sliding Mode Controlling Technique
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
This paper investigates, analyses and presents a control scheme for a modified SEPIC converter. High voltage conversion ratio is accomplished by using fewer passive components. The modified SEPIC converter is a combination ...
Energy Harvesting Schemes for UAV based Communications
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents two generic charging and transmission schemes to find the trade-off between the altitude of an Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) base station and the acquired harvested energy for maximum coverage area. The ...
