“DEVELOPMENT OF EMBEDDED BOOST CONVERTER FOR INFRARED PLASTIC SOLAR CELL”

G. SENTHIL KUMAR, Prof. S. INDIRA, Asst. Prof.

ABSTRACT

Conventional type solar cells photovoltaic (PV) cells are made of special materials called

semiconductors such as silicon which is currently the most commonly used. It is not so favourable

on cloudy days, thus creating a problem. This major draw back led to the thought of development of

new type of solar cell embedded with nanotechnology. In addition, a Converter is used to step up

solar panel voltage to a stable voltage without storage element such as battery. Existing materials

are only able to harness the sun’s visible light. While half of the solar’s power lies in the visible

spectrum, the other half lies in the infrared spectrum. The new material is first plastic compound

that is able to harness infrared portion.

The solar cell created is actually a hybrid, comprised of tiny nanorods dispersed in an

organic polymer or plastic. Then the nanorods are mixed with a plastic semiconductor called p3ht-

poly-(3-hexylthiophene) a transparent electrode is coated with the mixture. When they absorb light

of a specific wavelength, they generate a electron plus and electron hole a vacancy in the crystal

that moves around just like a electron. The electron travels the length of the rod until it is collected

by aluminium electrode. The hole is transferred to the plastic, which is known as a hole carrier and

conveyed to the electrode, creating a current. In the existing solar cells , the nanorods are jumbed up

in the polymer leading to losses of current via electron hole recombination and thus lower

efficiency. The design of the boost converter is implemented with a control technique based on

voltage feedback control. This voltage feedback control algorithm is implemented using PIC

16F877a microcontroller. It repeatedly tracks the output voltage of the boost converter. It sets a

duty cycle of a pulse width modulation (PWM) signal for the boost converter as an output signal.

The duty cycle will change whenever the output voltage changes. Then, the converter produces

constant output voltage which can be fed to the load. The system is designed with no storage

elements to avoid size and maintenance cost.

ABSTRACT

Networks-on-chip have emerged as a promising on-chip interconnects for future

multi/many-core architectures as Networks-on-chip are able to scale communication links with the

growing number of cores. State-of-the-art Networks-on-chip designs rely mainly on a static

network configuration using fixed routing algorithms and buffer placements. These approaches are

not effective in dealing with hard-to-predict system behavior. This problem can be solved by using

runtime adaptive network-on-chip. Adaptive route allocation algorithm which provides a required

level of quality of services coupled with an adaptive buffer assignment scheme which reassigns

buffer blocks on-demand. The area overhead is also reduced by resource multiplexing due to the

on-demand buffer assignment at each output port. This project proposes a new router topology

which is used to reduce the buffer size, and a new adaptive routing algorithm for 8-port router

Architecture reduces the network routing time. The Cartesian Network-On-Chip can be simulated

using xilinx software.

AN FPGA IMPLEMENTATION OF OPTIMIZATION ALGORITHM FOR THE

REMOVAL OF IMPULSE NOISE USING CLOUD MODEL A.Pandimeena, R.Shruthi Eswari,

(II M.E Student), (Assistant Professor)

ABSTRACT

Uncertainties are the major inherent feature of impulse noise. This fact makes image denoising a difficult

task. Understanding the uncertainties can improve the performance of image denoising. This paper presents

a novel adaptive detail-preserving filter based on the cloud model to remove impulse noise. It is called the

cloud model filter. First, an uncertainty-based detector identifies the pixels corrupted by impulse noise.

Then, a weighted fuzzy mean filter is applied to remove the noise candidates. The experimental results

show that, compared with the traditional switching filters, the cloud model filter makes a great

improvement in image denoising. Even at a noise level as high as 95%, the cloud model filter still can

restore the image with good detail preservation .This project is used to optimization algorithm for the

removal of impulse noise IN video using cloud model and also implemented in xilinx software.

professor)

ABSTRACT

Analysis of primary lung tumors and disease in regional lymph nodes is important for lung cancer

staging, and an automated system that can detect both types of abnormalities will be helpful for clinical

routine. In this paper, we proposed a new method to automatically detect both tumors and abnormal lymph

nodes simultaneously from positron emission tomography-computed tomography thoracic images. There

are five main phases involved in the proposed system. They are image pre-processing, extraction of lung

region from computer tomography images, segmentation of lung region, feature extraction from the

segmented region, classification of lung cancer as benign or malignant. Initially preprocessing is used for

image denoising, and then segmentation is performed using global thresholding and morphological

operations. Textural features extracted from the lung nodules using gray level co-occurrence matrix

(GLCM), local binary pattern, wavelet features. For classification, ANFIS is used. The main aim of the

method is to develop a system for finding the lung tumor and abnormal lymph nodes using the lung CT

images and classify the tumor as Benign or Malignant. The malignant is further classified as aggressive,

invasive and metastasis using ANFIS.

FPGA IMPLEMENTATION OF MIMO-OFDM MODEM USING PARALLEL

ARCHITECTURE WITH BI-ORTHOGONAL CODING TECHNIQUE D.Gayathri, R.Shruthi Eshwari,

(II M.E Student) (Assistant Professor)

ABSTRACT

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing is a multi-carrier system where data bits are encoded

to multiple sub-carriers, while being sent simultaneously. Although Orthogonal Frequency Division

Multiplexing in theory has been in existence for a long time, recent developments in Digital Signal

Processing and Very Large Scale Integration technologies have made it a feasible option. The Multi-band

orthogonal frequency division multiplexing modem needs to process more number of computations within

a short time. It supports high data rate of about 480Mbps. A multi-way parallel architecture has been

designed to satisfy performance requirement and to reduce power consumption. Due to parallel

architecture, chip resource increases. A resource efficient design is essential. For this purpose, several

optimization techniques is introduced in the design of baseband modem. The new processing structure is

designed for interleaver, packet synchronizer, channel equalizer ,and algorithm reconstruction is made for

offset compensator. In this paper, we introduce bi-orthogonal encoding and decoding concept to increase

the code rate compared to convolutional coding. It mainly depends on the code rate and the constraint

length factors . The input data for transmission and reception is verified using Xilinx software . Moreover

,in the proposed design multi -user transmission and reception scheme is to be introduced based on

Multiple Input Multiple Ouput concept in baseband modem .

A Single Phase Soft Switching Power Factor Correction Converter with Closed Loop S.Jeyanthi Mr.M.Sivasubramani, M.E., PG Scholar, Assistant Professor,

Abstract

In this paper, A Single phase soft switching power factor correction converter with closed loop is

developed with new active snubber circuit. The use of new active snubber circuit is to reduce the voltage

stress across the switches and makes the converter switches to operate in zero voltage switching (ZVS) and

zero current switching (ZCS). It provides zero-voltage transition turn ON and zero-current transition turn

OFF for the main switch. Auxiliary switch is turned ON and OFF with zero current switching. Although,

there is a current stress on the auxiliary switch, it is decreased by diverting a part of the current to the

output side with coupling inductance. The output voltage and current are controlled by the proposed PFC

converter in very wide line and load range. Due to the closed loop arrangement voltage stability is

maintained at all times. That is, if the voltage is reduced due to the increased loading conditions it will be

automatically changed to the set voltage. This circuit improves power factor nearest to unity, over-all

circuit efficiency and also maintains voltage stability. ZVS and ZCS operations are carried out by using

matlab.

Index Terms — Power factor correction (PFC), soft-switching (SS), zero-current switching (ZCS), zero-

current transition (ZCT), zero-voltage switching (ZVS) and zero-voltage transition (ZVT).

G.Poongodi,  (II M.E Student), .

Abstract

Improved dynamic range can be obtained by digitally ‘stitching’ multiple exposures.Tone

mapping is a method that maps high dynamic range image to low dynamic range image for

display devices with limited dynamic range. Noise reduction and adaptive contrast

enhancement is done for local TM. To decompose the image into sub-band pyramids,Haar

wavelets is used and to filter it,bilateral filter and soft-thresholding are used. The local

contrast is enhanced by an ad aptive weight, which is derived from the luminance

compression function with the color constraint. Finally, the color of the tone-mapped image

is reproduced using an adaptive saturation control parameter.In this paper,Global

Thresholding technique is introduced for image segmentation.Only the visually important

pixel is given to the Huffman Coding for compression and transmitted.The compression ratio

is compared with the existing results.In the receiver side,decompression of image using

Huffman coding method is done.

H.Joyce priya, T.Yasodha M.E.,

(II-ME student) (professor)

ABSTRACT

This paper presents a fast motion estimation algorithm concept with reduction in

execution time, which provides low power consumption in the design of hardware

architecture. A new VLSI micro architecture for fraction motion estimation based on the

diamond search is proposed. This architecture uses sum of absolute difference (SAD)

operation , the commonly used metric to determine the best match of the blocks .The design

has been implemented on the Xilinx Spartan which depicts the characteristics of memory

used, and power consumption. Fast search algorithm reduces search area by determining

motion vectors for multiframes instead of single frame. The motion estimation algorithm is

the most computationally intensive part of the encoder which is simulated using modelsim

software. The proposed algorithm gives us a fast processing time schedule with a fixed

number of computations. Multiframe motion estimation speeds up the computation time and

the simulation results shows that PSNR value is high compared with the single frame process

and computation time is reduced with negligible performance degradation.

An Approach for Contrast Enhancement Using The Fusion of Sharpening Filter

and Gamma Correction Filter

Vijay Gaikwad, Nikita Racheti, Prerana Purvant

(student) (student) (student)

Abstract

A great deal of effort has been expended in recent years developing algorithms to reduce the

noise that is inherent in all digital images. This paper presents an effective image pre-

processing technique which improves contrast enhancement, sharpness, denoising and edge

preservation. Histogram equalization is used for contrast enhancement. Sharpening filters

emphasize the edges in the image, or the differences between adjacent light and dark sample

points. This step requires a duplicate layer, which makes the process non-destructive and

infinitely adjustable by tweaking the opacity of the high pass layer. An improved Gamma

Correction filter algorithm is implemented for the de-noising of the sharpened image and its

edge preservation. Gamma Correction filter is also used for detection of Gaussian and

impulse (salt-and pepper) noise. The results show that the different noise density grayscale

images are reconstructed.

theoretical concept is developed, the modified look-up table is presented, and current-access

tables are designed and used in the phase-current reconstruction. The limitations are also

studied and presented. Simulation results are given to prove the ability of the proposed

scheme of reproducing the performances of a traditional DTC IM drive.

R.kala, M. Sivasubramani

PG Scalar, Asst prof Abstract

This project present operating performance of switched- capacitor -based resonant convertor

(SCRC) using a phase-shift control method with closed loop system. The proposed phase-shift control

realizes zero–voltage switching operation, and thus achieves high conversion efficiency. A theoretical

analysis shows that the SCRC can reduce its inductor volume compared with a conventional buck

convertor when the output voltage range is within 19% - 81% of its input voltage. Experimental results

verify the operating characteristics of the proposed method and show the improved conversion efficiency

of more than 99%. The closed loop system reduces the conduction loss and improves the efficiency.

Recently, resonant power converters consisting of an SCC and a small-rated resonant inductor have been

proposed to reduce the switching loss and Electromagnetic interference (EMI). The resonant converter has

many similarities with SCCs in its circuit topology and operating behaviour. Therefore, this project refers

to the resonant converter, which consists of an SCC and a small-rated resonant inductor inserted in series

with the switched capacitor as “switched-capacitor-based resonant converters (SCRCs).”

Abstract

The recent trend in protection has been a shift to numerical relay protection techniques, thanks to

the development using the single chip digital signal processors with high crunching capability, which has

made it possible to design digital filters in real time. In the protection field, numerical techniques have got

first application to line protection, and other complementary functions like fault locator, disturbance

recorder & auto-reclosing. The present work describes latest salient features of the numerical protection

technology, different multifunctional relays going to be installed in modern power system protection and

their methods of protection. Malfunction of relay protection is one of the main causes of the heavy failures

that periodically occur in power systems all over the world. Thus the reliability of a power system depends

on the reliability of relay protection in many respects. Watchdog timers are an excellent way to insure that

a microprocessor based system continues to operate unattended if occasional failures occur. The way that a

watchdog timer does its job is to monitor a particular signal sent by the microprocessor.

Abstract

Free space detection is primary task for car navigation. Unfortunately, classical approaches have difficulties in adverse weather condition in particular in day time fog. A solution is proposed thanks to a contrast restoration approach on images grabbed by an in-vehicle camera. The proposed method improves the state of art in several ways. First, the segmentation of the fog region of interest is better segmented thanks to the computation of shortest of routes maps. Second, the fog density as well as the position of the horizon line are jointly computed. Finally a segmentation of the connected component in front of the vehicle gives free space area. The proposed method is complementary to existing free space area detection methods relying on color segmentation and stereovision.

Abstract This paper presents multilevel inverters as an application for electric vehicle motor drives. Diode-

clamped inverters and cascaded H-bridge inverters (1) can generate near-sinusoidal voltages with only

fundamental frequency switching; (2) have almost no electromagnetic interference and common mode

voltage; and (3) make an electric vehicle more accessible safer and open wiring possible for most of an

EV's power system. This paper explores the benefits and discusses control schemes of the cascade inverter

for use as an EV motor drive or a parallel hybrid electric vehicle drive and the diode-clamped inverter as a

series hybrid electric vehicle motor drive. Analytical, simulated, and experimental results show the

SQUARE WAVE OPERATION OF A THREE PHASE DRIVE FOR IMPROVING

POWER FACTOR

K.Vignesh R.Govindarajulu

PG Scalar, AP

Abstract

The abstract of this project is to implement square wave operation of a three phase drive to

improve power factor. Poor power factor caused by reactive linear circuit elements results as the current

either leads or lags the voltage, depending on whether the load looks capacitive or inductive A PWM

rectifier has high efficiency and a good solution for power factor correction (PFC). A control strategy for a

reactor-free converter has been proposed to apply in a square-wave operation with an adjustable speed

drive motor. The known problem is where the current distortion in the power supply occurs when the

inverter outputs square waveforms. In order to overcome the problem, a feed forward control has been

proposed to suppress the input current distortion with a square-wave operation.

FUSED FLOATING POINT OPERATION FOR DOUBLE PRECISION IN VLSI

DESIGN A.Srimathi S.Madhusuthanan D.Babukannan Student student Assistant Professor

Abstract

This paper describe about the double precision of fused floating point operation in FFT implementation.

The fused operations are a two term dot product and an add – subtract unit. The double precision

floating point operations are mainly based on IEEE 754 adders which describe the uses of flagged prefix

addition to merge rounding with the significant addition. Due to the parallel operation of fused floating

is used to provide the best throughput but which is expensive in silicon area and in power consumption.

The double precisions are used to minimize the accumulation of round off errors. Dual-path designs

reduce the latency by 30% compared to the discrete design with area and power consumption between

that of the discrete and fused design. The proposed design is fully compliant with the IEEE 754-2008

standard formats decimal64 and decimal128. To improve the performance of the fused floating point

add-subtract unit, a dual path algorithm and pipelining are employed.

Enhancing NBTI Recovery In SRAM Arrays Through Fine And Coarse Grained Boosting

Brindha Maruthayee.M Vinoth.G

P.G.Scholar Assistant professor

Abstract 

Reliability is one of the biggest challenges facing the microprocessor industry today. With continued

scaling technology, processors are becoming increasingly susceptible to hard errors. Hard errors are

permanent faults that occur due to wearing out of hardware structures overtime. These failures occur

partly due to design time factors such as process parameters and wafer packing, as well as runtime

factor such as the utilization of the hardware resources and the operating temperature. One important

hard error phenomenon is negative bias temperature instability (NBTI). SRAM based structures are

susceptible to NBTI since one the pmos devices in the memory cell always has an input of “0”. The

technique used to overcome NBTI is recovery boosting. Previously proposed technique takes some

time to put pmos into recovery mode. So fine grained recovery boosting is proposed in this paper.

The fine-grained recovery boosting approach can be used for small static random access memory

(SRAM) arrays. In future work, plan to study the use of coarse-grained recovery boosting, which

imposes less area overheads, for designing caches. The coarse grained recovery boosting allows

many SRAM cell to put into the recovery mode by slightly modifying the design of convention

SRAM cell. The architecture of the physical register and instruction queue is studied. Power

consumption and delay of SRAM in conventional mode, normal recovery boosting mode, and fine

grained recovery boosting mode are calculated. MICROWIND and XILINX tools are used to

calculate power and delay respectively.

Keywords— Negative bias temperature instability (NBTI), Static random access memory (SRAM),

Word line (WL), Bit line (BL), Positive bias temperature instability (PBTI).

Efficient Bridgeless CUK Rectifiers for

Power factor Correction D.Prasad , R.Govindarajulu PG

Scalar, AP

ABSTRACT

This project three new bridgeless single-phase ac–dc power factor correction (PFC) rectifiers

based on CUK topology are proposed. The absence of an input diode bridge and the presence of only

two semiconductor switches in the current flowing path during each interval of the switching cycle

result in less conduction losses to the conventional CUK PFC rectifier.

The proposed topologies are designed to work in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) to

achieve almost a unity power factor and low total harmonic distortion of the input current. The DCM

operation gives additional advantages such as zero-current turn-on in the power switches, zero-

current

A HIGH EFFICIENCY SEVENTH LEVEL SELECTIVE HARMONICS

ELIMINATION FOR CMV REDUCTION

P.RAMESH A. NAZAR ALI

PG Scalar professor

ABSTRACT

This paper proposes a hybrid selective harmonic elimination pulse width modulation (SHEPWM)

scheme for common-mode voltage reduction in three-level neutral-point-clamped inverter-based

induction motor drives. The scheme uses the conventional SHEPWM (C-SHEPWM) to control the

inverter at high frequency (≥ 0.9 motor rated frequency) and uses the modified (SHEPWM (M-

SHEPWM) to control the inverter at low frequency. It also uses a scheme to ensure the smooth

transition between the two SHEPWM schemes. As a result, at high frequency, the C-SHEPWM

provides the required high modulation index for the five for common-mode voltage reduction; the M-

SHEPWM is used to suppress the common-mode voltage. Experimental results show that the proposed

hybrid SHEPWM scheme could meet the modulation index need of the motor and reduce the common-

mode voltage in the drive, and the two SHEPWM schemes could transition smoothly. Index Terms—

Bearing current, common-mode voltage (CMV), selective harmonic elimination pulse width

modulation (SHEPWM), three-level inverter.

Abstract

To improve system compatibility and portability, recently embedded processor based implementation

platform has become an attractive option for practitioners. This paper presents control design of a

positioning stage using embedded hardware. The applied controls and the system identification process for

the repetitive controller design were realized. This deals with the development of reliability models for

hardware systems and hardware defined software systems. The computing system or logical system

enhances the reliability of long life applications with the known hardware component failures. The cost and

complexity constraints are considered to get the optimal number of redundant components necessary to

achieve maximum reliability. In order to maintain temporal consistency of environmental and processed

data we need support of real-time database. This temporal consistency is essential to maintain exact status of

environment. The real-time scheduling is essential for timely execution of various tasks running in the

application. The consistent data and timely execution of tasks is crucial for proper functioning of automotive

Dstatcom – Based Three Phase Supply Unit Using Constant Current Method

S.Veerakumar S.Kumaresan

Abstract

As commercial and industrial customers become more than reliant on high-quality and high-reliability electric power.

Insufficient power quality can be caused disturbances from loads that mainly result in harmonics; voltage imbalance

and poor power factor all this lead to increased fuel consumption and reduced life of the DG sets. Each custom power

device can be considered to be a type of power-conditioning device.

In general, power-conditioning technology includes all devices used to correct end-user problems in response to

harmonic distortion and voltage imbalance and poor power factor.

The relation between distributed generation and power quality is an ambiguous one. For example, in areas like

where voltage support is difficult, three phase units such as diesel generators provide power supply. At the same time

if any faults are occurring in the system the diesel generator must be capable of providing the power supply without

any problems to the customers. Hence in order to ensure the reliability of power to the customers it is necessary to

install some compensating devices such that these devices provides the required reactive power to the generators

during fault instants such that the reactive power drawn from the supply will be nil and the other customers will not be

affected.

Finally DSTATCOM is possible to reduce the voltage fluctuations like sag and swell conditions in distribution

systems. The DSTATCOM which can be used at the PCC for improving power quality with the help of IcosФ

algorithm.DSTATCOM is applied to a simple Distributed Generation system consisting of AC generators like

Induction and Synchronous Generators and the system is analyzed by applying faults at various points. Finally the

best power system unit to be installed with DSTATCOM using IcosФ algorithm.

Vector Controlled Doubly Fed Induction Generator’s Maximum Power

Tracking and Loss Minimization Considering Core Loss 1V.Shankar ,

PG Scalar,

Abstract

To get maximum output power from a doubly fed induction generator (DFIG),

it is essential to extract maximum mechanical power from the wind turbine and to

minimize generator losses. The goal of maximum power tracking and minimum loss is

usually achieved through vector control of rotor current. In other words, the d-axis and

q-axis rotor currents Idr and Iqr must be properly controlled as wind speed changes

with time. In this paper, an analytical approach is developed to determine proper rotor

current commands Idr and Iqr which give maximum mechanical power and minimum

loss based on the measured generator speed. The proposed analytical approach is more

efficient than the exhaustive search approach. Therefore it is more suitable for real-

time performance improvements. In addition, core loss component, which is included

in the DFIG model in order to have more accurate results.

FOR SINGLE PHASE INDUCTION MOTOR

K.Rajesh M.SIVASUBRAMANI

PG Scalar Assistant Processor

Abstract

In this project, a Boost Half Bridge Photo Voltaic (PV) Micro Inverter System and its

control implementations over Single Phase Induction Motor. In order to achieve low cost,

easy control, high efficiency, and high reliability, a boost-half-bridge dc–dc converter using

minimal devices is introduced to interface the low-voltage PV module. A full-bridge pulse

width-modulated inverter is cascaded and injects synchronized sinusoidal current to the

single phase induction motor. Moreover, a plug-in repetitive current controller based on a

fourth-order linear phase IIR filter is proposed to regulate the single phase induction motor

current using ANFSI. High power factor and very low total harmonic distortions are

guaranteed under both heavy load and light load conditions. Dynamic stiffness is achieved

when load or solar irradiance is changing rapidly. In addition, the dynamic behavior of the

Boost Half Bridge DC – DC converter is analyzed; a customized maximum power point

tracking (MPPT) method, which generates a ramp-changed PV voltage reference, is

developed accordingly by the help of ANFSI. Variable step size is adopted such that both the

fast tracking speed and high MPPT efficiency are obtained. The variable universe ANFIS

control is applied to the maximum power point tracking (MPPT) control in this paper. The

variable universe ANFIS control is different from the conventional ANFIS control.

Simulation results are provided to verify the validity and performance of the circuit

operations, current control, and MPPT algorithm of ANFSI.

Abstract

An exciting revolution in health care and medical technology looms large on the

horizon. Yet the agents of change will be microscopically small, future products of a new

discipline known as nanotechnology. Nanotechnology is the engineering of molecularly

precise structures—typically 0.1 microns or smaller—and, ultimately, molecular machines.

Nanomedicine is the application of nanotechnology to medicine. It is the preservation and

improvement of human health, using molecular tools and molecular knowledge of the human

body. Present-day nanomedicine exploits carefully structured nanoparticles such as

dendrimers, carbon fullerenes (buckyballs) and nanoshells to target specific tissues and

organs. These nanoparticles may serve as diagnostic and therapeutic antiviral, antitumor or

anticancer agents. But as this technology matures in the years ahead, complex nanodevices

and even nanorobots will be fabricated, first of biological materials but later using more

durable materials such as diamond to achieve the most powerful results.

control. The aim is to reduce the switching losses and improve the power factor by

using the Three Phase Four Wire Vienna Rectifier. Vienna rectifier is a unidirectional

active AC/DC converter therefore power flows in just one direction from AC to DC

side. It reduces the number of switches. various advantages of the rectifier such as low

manufacturing cost due to usage of only three switches, higher efficiency, boosting

ability, production of two equal DC voltages, and no dead time makes it a good

choice in the applications that regeneration process is not required. By using Vienna

Rectifier P.F = 0.995 possible, THD = 5% possible, Efficiency = 97% possible can be

ABSTRACT

There are many technologies that can be used to allow business to identify, assign track

and audit. Automating the collection of data about stock, assets, components, and customers reduces

costs, increases accuracy and speeds information flow. Radio Frequency Identification (RFID)

solutions can be used to help in this.

This acronym refers to small electronic devices that consist of a small chip and an

antenna. It is a generic term that is used to describe a system that transmits the identity of an object

or person wirelessly in the form of a unique serial number, using radio waves. It's grouped under the

broad category of automatic identification technologies. RFID tags keep track of things using tiny

electronic circuits that can be "read" by a special receiver

RFID technology has been available for more than fifty years. The advantages are that

they can be read wirelessly and without line of sight, contain more information than barcodes, and

are more robust. RFID is in use all around us. It is being used in a variety of applications, such as

Access management, Tracking of goods, persons and animals, Toll collection, Passports, hospitals

& health care, libraries, museums, Security concerns etc.,

The present article brings out the concept of RFID, its working mechanism along with

the components and also highlights the uses of it. RFID technology has developed a lot from just

RFID tag to security concerns however, privacy became a concern. But RFID is the better

technology than previous technologies like barcode however it still has scope for development.

ABSTRACT

Full-bridge phase-shifted pulse width modulation converter using insulated-gate

bipolar transistors with a special auxiliary transformer is presented in this paper. Zero-voltage

switching for leading leg and zero-current switching for lagging leg switches in the converter are

achieved for full-load range from no load to short circuit by adding an active energy recovery

clamp and auxiliary circuits. The principle of operation is explained and analyzed, and

experimental results are presented on a 3-kW 50-kHz laboratory converter model. The high-

frequency soft-switching current-mode controlled DC-DC converter with secondary switches

using PS-PWM in secondary side of high frequency transformer has been presented. A novel

soft-switching converter combining resonant half-bridge and phase-shifted pulse width

modulation (PWM) full bridge configuration is proposed to ensure the switches in the leading-

leg operating at zero-voltage switching from true zero load to full-load, and the switches in the

lagging leg working at zero-current switching with minimum duty cycle loss and circulating

conduction loss by significantly reducing leakage or series inductance. Experimental results of a

3.4-kW hardware prototype show that the circuit achieves true full-range soft switching with

98% peak efficiency. The hybrid resonant and PWM converter is attractive for electrical vehicle

battery charger application.

\

Abstract Channel estimation is an essential task in MIMO-OFDM systems for coherent

demodulation and data detection. MIMO–OFDM systems require the channel state information

(CSI) for coherent demodulation and symbol detection. Channel state information can be

obtained by pilot based channel estimation techniques. To design the pilot tones that are used in

channel estimation, the artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm is proposed for optimizing the

placement of pilot tones in MIMO–OFDM systems.ABC based pilot tones design performs

better than the other pilot tone design techniques. In these techniques, pilot tones are inserted

into all subcarriers of OFDM symbols with a specific period or inserted into each OFDM symbol

The other pilot tone techniques are random, orthogonal and PSO. The performances of pilot tone

designs are measured using mean square error (MSE) and bit error rate (BER). ABC algorithm

has the computational complexity advantage over the orthogonal placement of pilot tones.

A NEW INTEGRATED CONVERTER TOPOLOGY FOR HYBRID ENERGY

APPLICATIONS

K.Gijipriya,

Assistant professor

ABSTRACT

Renewable energy resources are gaining ever deeper penetration into the power grid

because of its advantages. Hybrid power sources are becoming more and more popular.

Renewable energies have advantages of zero fuel cost and reduced environmental impacts. This

paper proposes a new converter topology that interfaces four ports: two sources, one storage port

and one isolated load port. The proposed dc/dc converter is derived by combining two converters

namely cuk and SEPIC converters. This paper proposes an integrated converter topology for the

hybrid power sources. Two inputs, one from wind energy and another from solar PV panel are

given to the converter and maximum power is extracted by using maximum power point tracking

method. Three of the four ports can be tightly regulated by adjusting their independent duty-

cycle values, while the fourth port is left unregulated to maintain the power balance for the

system. The output is given to inverter which converts dc to ac and is applied to load.

Operational analysis and simulation results are given for the proposed circuit. This topology

promises significant savings in component count and losses for renewable energy power-

harvesting systems.

HIGH POWER FACTOR INTERLEAVED BOOST AC-DC CONVERTER WITH ZVS FOR CHARGING BATTERY OPERATED VEHICLES

K.Gijipriya, M.Manochithra , P.Punitha

Assistant professor student student

.

ABSTRACT This paper presents simple zero-voltage switching interleaved boost power factor

correction ac/dc converter used to charge the traction battery of an electric vehicle from the

utility mains. The proposed topology consists of a passive auxiliary circuit, placed between two

phases of the interleaved front-end boost PFC converter, which provides enough current to

charge and discharge the MOSFET’s output capacitors during turn-ON times. Therefore, the

MOSFETs are turned ON at zero voltage. The proposed converter maintains ZVS for the

universal input voltage which includes a very wide range of duty ratios. In addition, the control

system optimizes the amount of reactive current required to guarantee ZVS during the line cycle

for different load conditions. This optimization is crucial in this application since the converter

may work at very light loads for a long period of time. The results show a considerable increase

in efficiency and superior performance of the proposed converter compared to the conventional

hard-switched interleaved boost PFC converter.

ABSTRACT

Autonomous ground vehicle “AURA” can be maneuvered through a wide variety of

terrains that is commonly encountered in military operations. It overcomes the disadvantages

normally associated with autonomous unguided vehicles (AUV). A variety of advanced sensor

systems like cameras (for image processing), SONAR (Sound Navigation and Ranging) and GPS

(Global Positioning System) are used to continuously monitor the robot and its environment and

hence, can guide it along the most efficient path to the target. The fusion of the various sensor

systems increases the accuracy of obstacle detection and the performance of the robot. The GPS

module helps to guide the robot through GPS waypoints with a high degree of accuracy and also

serves as a communication channel for wireless E-Stop mechanism. The image processing is

executed by camera. CompactRIO is used as the processor, which provides great stability and

durability for the standalone system. It has high data memory, flash memory and I/O Port

capability suits the real time Image processing applications being performed in our robot. The

bottom-line of this approach is to synthesize multiple sources of real-time data including image

maps, GPS sensors and SONAR with standard contour to provide robust and intelligent obstacle

then reconstructs them by the total variation inpainting method. The experimental results are reported

which show the efficiency of our method in removing random-valued impulse noise. Further, our filter can

be used for image restoration from images damaged by the superimposed artifacts.

SECURITY SYSTEM IN ATM MONEY TRANSACTION USING PIC

16F877/874

Dr. A. Balamurugan A.P.Ramesh Abstract

This paper sets sight on authenticating the conventional ATM money transaction system.

In the prevailing system though the ATM card paves a convenient mode of transactions, it is

subjected to more jeopardy. As technology extends its limit, the way of hacking and cracking

also goes along the road. In our proposed system, in every transaction with the ATM card a

handshaking signal is achieved with the card holder. The handshaking method is achieved by

transferring the transaction time and the purchase details to the mobile of the card holder.

From the acknowledgement and authentication received from the cardholder’s mobile further

transaction proceeds. The system uses the microcontroller unit for the security issues

between the mobile and the card. Reports can also be generated for every successful

from the cardholder is the major authentication command. The microcontroller unit decodes

the message and decides the operation to be performed. Each and every transaction process

the card holders receive the message. If the card holder gives the permission then the

transaction process is continued or otherwise stopped.

MODELLING OF S-IPFC FOR ACTIVEPOWER ENCHANCEMENT IN

TRANSMISSION LINE B.karthik, G.visalakshi Lecturer/EEE, PG student EEE,

The Separated Interline Power Flow Controller (S-IPFC) presented is a new

concept for a FACTS device. The S-IPFC is an adapted version of the IPFC, which

eliminates the common dc link of the IPFC and enable the separate installation of the

converters. Without location constrain, more power lines can be equipped with the SIPFC,

which gives more control capability of the power flow control. Instead of the

common dc link, the exchange active power between the converters is through the same

ac transmission line at 3rd harmonic frequency. Every converter has its own dc capacitor

to provide the dc voltage. This paper presents the basis theory of the S-IPFC, steady-state

analysis, primary control loop and the corresponding simulation results.

It is derived from the IPFC, and possesses all the control capability of the IPFC. The

‘master’ converter can adjust the voltage magnitude, transmission angle, and line

impedance. The ‘slave’ converter provides the active power for ‘master’ converter, and at

the same time adjusts its own line reactance. The S-IPFC eliminates the common dc link

of the IPFC, which enables the long range installation of converters and gives more

flexibility for the IPFC.

FUSED FLOATING POINT OPERATION FOR DOUBLE PRECISION IN VLSI

DESIGN A.Srimathi, D.Babukannan P.G Student Assistant Professor

Abstract

This paper describe about the double precision of fused floating point operation in FFT

implementation. The fused operations are a two term dot product and an add – subtract unit. The

double precision floating point operations are mainly based on IEEE 754 adders which describe

the uses of flagged prefix addition to merge rounding with the significant addition. Due to the

parallel operation of fused floating is used to provide the best throughput but which is expensive

in silicon area and in power consumption. The double precisions are used to minimize the

accumulation of round off errors. Dual-path designs reduce the latency by 30% compared to the

discrete design with area and power consumption between that of the discrete and fused design.

The proposed design is fully compliant with the IEEE 754-2008 standard formats decimal64 and

decimal128. To improve the performance of the fused floating point add-subtract unit, a dual

path algorithm and pipelining are employed.

A WIRELESS COMMUNICATION MODEL FOR AUTOMATION OF

ELECTRIC POWER DISTRIBUTION C.SENTHILKUMAR, ABSTRACT 

Energy crisis is most important and important topic in this situation. An energy crisis is

any great bottleneck in the supply of energy resources to an economy. In popular literature

though, it often refers to one of the energy sources used at a certain time and place. Energy runs

machinery in factories, lights our cities and powers our vehicles. There has been an enormous

increase in the demand for energy as a result of industrial development and population growth.

Supply of energy is, therefore, far less than the actual demand. Keeping these things in

mind we have designed a project which will be used to maximize the utilization of renewable

energy resources.

In our project we are designing an intelligent microcontroller based system which is programmed

in such a way to connect the power generated from the renewable energy resources so that the

maximum utilization of power is achieved

A STUDY ON ROBOTICS IN NEW MILLINIUM

Abstract

The word “robot” commonly evokes an image of a tin can with two artificial eyes and a metallic

voice. Often they are misunderstood due to the perception imparted by movies. Even for people

who are into technology, robots are intriguing due to the complexity involved in building them.

Robots are usually electro-mechanical devices that can do specific physical tasks. Mobile robots

can be classified as legged, wheeled, or tracked. Legged robots are further classified based on

number of legs and so on. Some of the successful mobile robots have either wheels or tracks.

Already many countries use mobile robots in military, police and firefighting and rescue

applications. The applications include surveillance, reconnaissance, rescue missions, and to

detect and diffuse bombs. Unmanned aerial vehicles, ‘Drones’ are already proving their mettle in

several military applications. Robots are also making entry into our homes. Robots that do boring

chores like vacuuming and mopping floors around the house are getting popular. Cost of good

quality sensors and actuators are presently high, though they have seen a steady decline in pric-

ing and an increase in reliability due to MEMS (micro electro-mechanical sensors) based chips.

Sensors will continue to evolve in smaller form factors and low cost, as more advances are made

in MEMS and nanotechnology based sensors in the next decade.

Abstract

This paper presents a Three Phase Four wire VIENNA Rectifier based on one cycle

control. The aim is to reduce the switching losses and improve the power factor by using

the Three Phase Four Wire Vienna Rectifier. Vienna rectifier is a unidirectional active

AC/DC converter therefore power flows in just one direction from AC to DC side. It

reduces the number of switches. various advantages of the rectifier such as low

manufacturing cost due to usage of only three switches, higher efficiency, boosting

ability, production of two equal DC voltages, and no dead time makes it a good choice in

the applications that regeneration process is not required. By using Vienna Rectifier P.F =

0.995 possible, THD = 5% possible, Efficiency = 97% possible can be achieved.

New Efficient Bridgeless CUK Rectifiers for Power factor Correction

D.PRASAD R.GOVINDARAJULU

PG Scalar, Assistant Professor

Abstract

This paper presents a three new bridgeless single-phase ac–dc power factor correction

(PFC) rectifiers based on CUK topology are proposed. The absence of an input diode bridge and

the presence of only two semiconductor switches in the current flowing path during each interval

of the switching cycle result in less conduction losses and an improved thermal management

compared to the conventional CUK PFC rectifier. The proposed topologies are designed to work

in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) to achieve almost a unity power factor and low total

harmonic distortion of the input current. The DCM operation gives additional advantages such as

zero-current turn-ON in the power switches, zero-current turn-OFF in the output diode, and

simple control circuitry. Performance comparisons between the proposed and conventional CUK

PFC rectifiers are performed based on circuit simulations. Experimental results for a 150 W/48

Vdc at 100 Vrms line voltage to evaluate the performance of the proposed bridgeless PFC rectifiers

is provided.

A SINGLE PHASE SOFT SWITCHING POWER FACTOR CORRECTION

CONVERTER WITH CLOSED LOOP

S.Jeyanthi, PG Scholar,

ABSTRACT

In this paper, A Single phase soft switching power factor correction converter with closed

loop is developed with new active snubber circuit. The use of new active snubber circuit is to

reduce the voltage stress across the switches and makes the converter switches to operate in zero

voltage switching (ZVS) and zero current switching (ZCS). It provides zero-voltage transition

turn ON and zero-current transition turn OFF for the main switch. Auxiliary switch is turned ON

and OFF with zero current switching. Although, there is a current stress on the auxiliary switch,

it is decreased by diverting a part of the current to the output side with coupling inductance. The

output voltage and current are controlled by the proposed PFC converter in very wide line and

load range. Due to the closed loop arrangement voltage stability is maintained at all times. That

is, if the voltage is reduced due to the increased loading conditions it will be automatically

changed to the set voltage. This circuit improves power factor nearest to unity, over-all circuit

efficiency and also maintains voltage stability. ZVS and ZCS operations are carried out by using

matlab.

Advanced VLSI Architecture for Optical Flow Estimation Using Background Subtraction

P.Savitha G.Kiruthiga 2C.Deena

Student, student .Assistant Professor,

Abstract

Optical flow computation in vision-based systems demands substantial computational power and

storage area. Hence, to enable real-time processing at high resolution, the design of application-

specific system for optic flow becomes essential. In this paper, we propose an efficient VLSI

architecture for the accurate computation of the Background Subtraction based optical flow

motion detection methods which follow the principle of background subtraction. To segment

moving foreground objects from the background a pure background image has to be estimated.

This reference background image is then subtracted from each frame and binary masks with the

moving foreground objects are obtained by thresholding the resulting difference images. The

optical flow estimation involves several tasks such as Gaussian smoothing, gradient

computation, least square matrix calculation, and velocity estimation, which are processed in a

pipelined fashion. The proposed architecture was simulated and verified by synthesizing onto a

Xilinx Field Programmable Gate Array, which utilize less than 40% of system resources while

operating at a frequency of 55 MHz.FPGA implementation renders it more useful for real time

applications

AN EFFICIENT STEP DOWN INTERLEAVED BUCK CONVERTER

WITH LOW SWITCHING LOSSES

A.Vijaykarthikeyan

D.Madhusudhan

P.G Student, Assistant Professor

ABSTRACT

This paper proposes a new interleaved buck converter (IBC) having low switching losses

and improved step-down conversion ratio, which is suitable for the applications where

the input voltage is high and the operating duty is below 50%.Interleaving technique is

used in some applications due to its advantages regarding filter reduction, dynamic

response, and power management. The voltage stress of the freewheeling diodes is half of

the input voltage in the steady state and can be quickly reduced below the input voltage

during the cold startup, the use of lower voltage-rated. The losses related to the diodes

can be improved by employing schottky diodes that have generally low breakdown

voltages, typically below 200V. The proposed IBC shows that since the voltage stress

across all the active switches is half of the input voltage before turn-on or after turn-off

when the operating duty is below 50%, the capacitive discharging and switching losses

can be reduced considerably. The proposed IBC has a higher step-down conversion ratio

and a smaller output current ripple compared with a conventional IBC. MOSFET as the

active power switches with an interleaved inductor. Switching loss can be effectively

reduced by ZVT of the active power switches accompanied by the reduced reverse

recovery losses of the freewheeling diode.

SECURITY SYSTEM IN ATM MONEY TRANSACTION USING PIC

16F877/874

Dr. A. Balamurugan A.P.Ramesh

Abstract

This paper sets sight on authenticating the conventional ATM money transaction

system. In the prevailing system though the ATM card paves a convenient mode of

transactions, it is subjected to more jeopardy. As technology extends its limit, the way

of hacking and cracking also goes along the road. In our proposed system, in every

transaction with the ATM card a handshaking signal is achieved with the card holder.

The handshaking method is achieved by transferring the transaction time and the

purchase details to the mobile of the card holder. From the acknowledgement and

authentication received from the cardholder’s mobile further transaction proceeds.

The system uses the microcontroller unit for the security issues between the mobile

and the card. Reports can also be generated for every successful authentication. The

cardholder will be asked for a reply by the mobile message. The message from the

cardholder is the major authentication command. The microcontroller unit decodes

the message and decides the operation to be performed. Each and every transaction

process the card holders receive the message. If the card holder gives the permission

then the transaction process is continued or otherwise stopped.

Key words: Security in ATM, authentication, money transaction with handshaking.

M.Ranjith

Abstract

Co-ordination of wind power into an existing electric grid affects the power quality. The

performance of the wind turbine and thereby power quality are determined on the basis of

measurements and the norms followed according to the guideline specified in

International Electro-technical Commission standard,IEC-61400. The influence of the

wind turbine in the grid system concerning the power quality measurements are-the

active power, reactive power, variation of voltage, flicker, harmonics, and electrical

behavior of switching operation and these are measured according to

national/international guidelines. The

paper study demonstrates the power quality problem due to installation of wind turbine

with the grid. In this proposed scheme STATic COMpensator (STATCOM) is connected

at a point of common coupling with a battery energy storage system (BESS) to mitigate

the power quality issues. This Paper also presents a PI controller with dq0 transformation

for these D-STATCOM. This PI controller Works with transformation of dq0 to abc and

abc to dq0 with three phase PLL. The PI controllers are used for the implementation of

the models and are discussed. The STATCOM control scheme for the grid connected

wind energy generation system for power quality improvement is simulated using

MATLAB/SIMULINK in power system block set.

A NEW APPROACH OF RENEWABLE INTERFACING INVERTER IN 3P4W DISTRIBUTION NETWORK USING ANFIS CONTROL

Miss. K.MEKALA, M.E., Mrs.C.CHITRA, M.E.,

Assistant professor Assistant professor

ABSTRACT

Power electronics plays an important role in controlling the grid-

connected renewable energy sources. This paper presents a novel adaptive neuro-fuzzy

control approach for the renewable interfacing inverter. The main objective is to achieve

smooth bidirectional power flow and non -linear unbalanced load compensation

simultaneously .where the conventional proportional-integral controller may fail due to

the rapid changein the dynamics of the highly nonlinear system. The combined capability

of neuro-fuzzy controller in handling the uncertainties and learning from the processes is

proved to be advantageouswhile controlling the inverter under fluctuating operating

conditions.

The inverter is actively controlled to compensate the harmonics, reactive

power, and the current imbalance of a three-phasefour-wire (3P4W) nonlinear load with

generated renewable powerinjection into the grid simultaneously. This enables the grid

toalwayssupply/absorb a balanced set of fundamental currents atunity power factor even

in the presence of the 3P4W nonlinearunbalanced load at the point of common coupling.

The proposed system is developed and simulated in MATLAB/Sim Power System

environment under different operating conditions.The digitalsignal processing and

control engineering-based laboratory experimentalresults are also provided to validate the

proposed controlapproach.

The obtained results show a clear agreement between simulation and

experimental results which verify the effective performance of the ANFIC controller. An

adaptive neurofuzzy inference system (ANFIS) combines the fuzzy qualitative approach

with the adaptive capabilities of neural networks to achieve improved performance.

Compared to a standard fuzzy-logic controller, a control system based on this concept can

be trained without significant expert knowledge.

CANCER -one of the most deadly disease which primarily starts at the cellular level. To

be more specific they start at the molecular level. At this molecular level, even the finest scalpel

is like a huge instrument designed more to rip and tear than to heal and cure.The traditional

methods that are available today to detect and treat cancer damages many of the cells which are

noncancerous and not harmful. The detection of cancer by the traditional methods that are

available today do not discover the disease at the earlier stage. So, the medical field is in need of

some well structured and well organized simple tool that can detect and treat cancer efficiently

and earlier. For the sake of this we present an idea of NANOROBOTS for detecting and treating

cancerous cells at a very ealier stage. To design the nanorobots we use the

NANOTECHNOLOGY, which is normally called as the molecular engineering. We also present

the ways and means for curing the disease efficiently and without giving much pain to the

patient. In our paper we discuss about the various features that a nanorobot should possess-down

from the size up to the detection and treatment.

R.ANEES AHAMED V.SIVABALAN ABSTRACT:

Page 77 of 94 

 

Page 78: Electrical and Electronics

  78

Present Traffic Light Controllers (TLC) are based on microcontroller and

microprocessor. These TLC have limitations because it uses the pre-defined hardware,

which is functioning according to the program that does not have the flexibility of

modification on real time basis. Due to the fixed time intervals of green, orange and red

signals the waiting time is more and car uses more fuel. To make traffic light controlling

more efficient, we exploit the emergence of new technique called as “Intelligent traffic

light controller”. This makes the use of Sensor Networks along with Embedded

Technology. The timings of Red, Green lights at each crossing of road will be

intelligently decided based on the total traffic on all adjacent roads. Thus, optimization of

traffic light switching increases road capacity and traffic flow, and can prevent traffic

congestions. GSM cell phone interface is also provided for users those who wish to

obtain the latest position of traffic on congested roads. This is a unique feature of this

project which is very useful to car drivers to take an alternate route in case of congestion.

The various performance evaluation criteria are average waiting time, average distance

traveled by vehicles, switching frequency of green light at a junction, efficient emergency

mode operation and satisfactory operation of SMS using GSM Mobile. The performance

of the Intelligent Traffic Light Controller is compared with the Fixed Mode Traffic Light

Controller. It is observed that the proposed Intelligent Traffic Light Controller is more

efficient than the conventional controller in respect

of less waiting time, more distance traveled by average vehicles and efficient operation

during emergency mode and GSM interface. Moreover, the designed system has simple

architecture, fast response time, user friendliness and scope for further expansion.

results are reported which show the efficiency of our method in removing random-valued impulse noise.

Further, our filter can be used for image restoration from images damaged by the superimposed artifacts.

Optimal Minimization of THD on the Line-to-Line Voltage of Multilevel Inverters

Ajai B S Mohamed Yousuf S Ravikumar

Assistant Professor Assistant Professor Assistant professor

Abstract

In this paper, minimization of the total harmonics (THD) present in the output voltage of multilevel inverters is

discussed . In order to reduce the harmonic contents of the inverter's output voltage the best approach is THD

minimization. In multilevel inverters, if fundamental frequency switching strategy is considered,(each switch

turning on and off once per output cycle), the switching angles can be selected so that the output THD is

minimized. To obtain the optimum switching angles, an optimization algorithm is applied to the output-voltage

THD. In the case of three-phase multilevel inverters, the optimization algorithm is generally applied to the phase

voltage of the inverter. This results in the minimum THD in phase voltage but not necessarily in the line-to-line

minimum THD. In three-phase applications, the line-voltage harmonics are of the main concern from the load

point of view. In this paper, using the genetic algorithm and sinusoidal PWM technique, a THD minimization

process is applied to the line-to-line voltage of the inverter. This paper is based on a comparison between seven

level cascaded and nine level diode clamped multilevel inverter.

Abstract

Improving the Quality of Service in wireless sensor networks is more important to transmit the

information clearly from one place to another place. The limitations like hidden node collision, virtual node

collision etc., degrades the quality of service while transferring information. In wireless sensor network with

the medium access control protocols, when two nodes that are not visible to each other transmit to a third

node that is visible to the former, there will be a collision called hidden-node or blind collision occurs. This

problem greatly impacts network throughput, energy-efficiency and message transfer delays, and the

problem dramatically increases with the number of nodes. The hidden node collision eliminated by the

proposed Integrated Gateway Node Control Algorithm. The proposed method eliminates the hidden node

collision in low rate compared to the existing systems. The NS2 simulator used for the simulation and

eliminates the hidden node collision problem.

for step-up and isolation at the output side. It is not possible to obtain a higher efficiency in

such inverters since the basic losses in transformers cannot be eliminated such as core losses,

copper losses and PF losses. So our project aims at developing a Transformer-less inverter

topology for PV applications. Here the DC from the PV modules is converted to single phase

AC with a H-Bridge Inverter. The DC current supplied by the PV panels and feed into the

utility grid. There are two main topology groups used in this case of grid connected PV

system with and without isolation.

Voltage Stability Prediction and correction using Artificial Neural Network

P.Rajalakshmi Dr. M.Rathinakumar

Assistant Professor Assistant Professor

Abstract In this paper Neural Network-based method is proposed for monitoring on-line voltage security of electric

power systems. The development and use of accurate methods to predict incipient voltage instability is

crucial in preventing such voltage collapse situations. Voltage collapse may cause the outage in the entire

power system. A modal analysis technique computes using steady state system model, a specified no. of

smallest Eigen values and the associated Eigen vectors of reduced Jacobian matrix. The Eigen value

provides relative measure of proximity to voltage instability. The Eigen vectors each of which is associated

with a mode of voltage / reactive power are used to describe the mode shape and to provide information

about the network elements and generators which participate in each mode. Using the bus participation

factors, the weak load buses are identified. For these weak buses Artificial neural can be used for

assessment of the amount of Reactive power support needed for extending the voltage stability margin, and

to assess the extended stability margin with reasonable accuracy. The effectiveness of the proposed

approach has been demonstrated on the IEEE 14-bus test system

Keywords—reactive power; voltage stability; voltage instability; voltage collapse; eigen values; eigen vectors; modal analysis.

IMPULSE NOISE REDUCTION USING FUZZY CELLULAR AUTOMATA

Syed Abdul Azeem, S. Saravana Kumar, Govindaraj.V Student Student professor

Abstract

Impulse noise reduction from corrupted images plays an important role in image processing. This

problem will also affect on image segmentation, object detection, edge detection, compression, etc.to

eliminate impulse noises from noisy images, we used a hybrid method based on cellular automata (CA) and

fuzzy logic called Fuzzy Cellular Automata (FCA) in two steps. In the first step, based on statistical

information, noisy pixels are detected by CA; then using this information, the noisy pixel will change by

FCA. Regularly, CA is used for systems with simple components where the behavior of each component

will be defined and updated based on its neighbors.

The proposed hybrid method is characterized as simple, robust and parallel which keeps the

important details of the image effectively. The proposed approach has been performed on well-known gray

scale test images and compared with other conventional and famous algorithms, is more effective

Keywords-component: cellular automata (CA) and Fuzzy Cellular Automata (FCA)

Abstract – A supervised method is proposed for automated segmentation of vessels in fundus images of retina. This method is used to detect the retinal diseases by extracting the retinal vasculature utilizing 9-D feature vector based on orientation analysis of gradient vector field, morphological transformation, line strength measures, and Gabor filter responses. The feature vector encodes information to handle the healthy and pathological retinal image. Each pixel in the retinal image is characterized by a vector in 9-D feature space and those pixels are classified using neural network classifiers (FFBNN. RBF, and MLP) and the performance is evaluated in detail. As its effectiveness and robustness with different image conditions, together with its simplicity and fast implementation, make this blood vessel segmentation proposal suitable for retinal image computational analyses such as automated screening for early retinal disease detection.

Keywords- Retinal blood vessels, segmentation, neural classifiers, Feed Forward Backpropagation Neural network (FFBNN), Radial Basis Function (RBF), Multi Layer Perceptron (MLP), medical image analysis.

VOLTAGE CONTROL IN CASCADED MULTILEVEL INVERTER WITH SPACE VECTOR MODULATION USING FUZZY LOGIC CONTROL

J.Jenibha Joshi, Student

Mr.R.Suresh Kumar, Assistant professor,

Abstract:

This paper describes the design of rule based fuzzy logic controller (FLC) for the multilevel

inverter. In general the multilevel inverters are effective means of reducing harmonic

distortion and provide low electromagnetic interference (EMI) and low dv/dt of output

voltage. The PWM based on space vectors (SVPWM) technique is used in this inverter. The

SVM enables balancing the voltages of dc capacitors and provides switching at low

frequency thus reducing the switching losses. This scheme leads to be able to control the

output voltage of the five level diode clamped inverter by using the fuzzy logic controller.

The proposal is verified in simulation to evaluate the validity of the inverter in MATLAB.

Index Terms — Fuzzy Logic Controller, Space Vector Modulation, total harmonic distortion,

harmonic elimination, multilevel inverter, electromagnetic interference.

REAL TIME COUNTING SYSTEM USING MATLAB AND IMAGE PROCESSING TECHNIQUE

Abstract

A people counter is a device used to count the number of pedestrians walking through a door or

corridor. Most of the time, this system is used at the entrance of a building so that the total number of

visitors can be recorded. People counting system is important for marketing research (pedestrian

traffic Management , tourists flow estimation) or in security application (in the case of an evacuation,

it is essential to know how many people are inside the building at any given time). The aim of this

thesis was to make a prototype of a real-time counting people system video based by using the Matlab

programming tool. And then try to measure its accuracy and compare to another system based on laser

beam sensors. Some sensors are used to count people in a building with different advantages and

drawbacks and different accuracy such as laser beam, infra-red sensor, thermal sensor and recently

video camera

HIGH POWER FACTOR INTERLAVED BOOST AC- DC CONVERTER WITH

ZVS FOR CHARGING BATTERY OPERATED VEHICLES MS k. GIJIPRIYA M.MANOCHITHRA P.PUNITHA (Asst. prof) student student

Abstract

This paper presents zero-voltage switching interleaved boost power factor correction ac/dc

converter used to charge the traction battery of an electric vehicle from the utility mains. The proposed

topology consists of a passive auxiliary circuit, placed between two phases of the interleaved front-end

boost PFC converter, which provides enough current to charge and discharge the MOSFETs’ output

capacitors during turn-ON times. Therefore, the MOSFETs are turned ON at zero voltage. The

proposed converter maintains ZVS for the universal input voltage which includes a very wide range

of duty ratios In addition, the control system optimizes the amount of reactive current required to

guarantee ZVS during the line cycle for different load conditions. This optimization is crucial in this

application since the converter may work at very light loads for a long period of time. The results

show a considerable increase in efficiency and superior performance of the proposed converter

compared to the conventional hard-switched interleaved boost PFC converter.
