Energy harvesting earliest deadline first scheduling algorithm for increasing lifetime of real time systems

10.11591/ijece.v9i1.pp539-545
Arvind Kumar , Bashir Alam
In this paper, a new approach for energy minimization in energy harvesting real time systems has been investigated. Lifetime of a real time systems is depend upon its battery life.  Energy is a parameter by which the lifetime of system can be enhanced.  To work continuously and successively, energy harvesting is used as a regular source of energy. EDF (Earliest Deadline First) is a traditional real time tasks scheduling algorithm and DVS (Dynamic Voltage Scaling) is used for reducing energy consumption. In this paper, we propose an Energy Harvesting Earliest Deadline First (EH-EDF) scheduling algorithm for increasing lifetime of real time systems using DVS for reducing energy consumption and EDF for tasks scheduling with energy harvesting as regular energy supply. Our experimental results show that the proposed approach perform better to reduce energy consumption and increases the system lifetime as compared with existing approaches.

Enhanced signal detection slgorithm using trained neural network for cognitive radio receiver

10.11591/ijece.v9i1.pp323-331
Sheetal Dhananjay Borde , Kalyani Rajeev Joshi
Over the past few years, Cognitive Radio has become an important research area in the field of wireless communications. It can play an important role in dynamic spectrum management and interference identification. There are many spectrum sensing techniques proposed in literature for cognitive radio, but all those techniques detect only presence or absence of the primary user in the designated band and do not give any information about the used modulation scheme. In certain applications, in cognitive radio receiver, it is necessary to identify the modulation type of the signal so that the receiver parameters can be adjusted accordingly. Most of the modulated signals exhibit the property of Cyclostationarity that can be used for the purpose of correct detection of primary user and the modulation type. In this paper, we have proposed an enhanced signal detection algorithm for cognitive radio receiver which makes use of cyclostationarity property of the modulated signal to exactly detect, the modulation type of the received signal using a trained neural network. The algorithm gives better accuracy of signal detection even in low SNR conditions. The use of a trained neural network makes it more flexible and extendible for future applications

D. Madhavi , Khwaja Muinuddin Chisti Mohammed , N. Jyothi , M. Ramesh Patnaik
In this paper, a new efficient image retrieval system using sequential process of three stages with filtering technique for the feature selection is proposed. In the first stage the color features are extracted using color histogram method and in the second stage the texture features are obtained using log-Gabor filters and in the third stage shape features are extracted using shape descriptors using polygonal fitting algorithm. The proposed log-Gabor filter in the second stage has advantages of retrieving images over regular Gabor filter for texture. It provides better representation of the images. Experimental evaluation of the proposed system shows improved performance in retrieval as compared to other existing systems in terms of average precision and average recall.

10.11591/ijece.v9i1.pp562-569
Kurapati Subba Reddy , E. Srinivasa Reddy
Online social networking sites are becoming more popular amongst Internet users. The Internet users spend some amount of time on popular social networking sites like Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn etc. Online social networks are considered to be much useful tool to the society used by Internet lovers to communicate and transmit information. These social networking platforms are useful to share information, opinions and ideas, make new friends, and create new friend groups. Social networking sites provide large amount of technical information to the users. This large amount of information in social networking sites attracts cyber criminals to misuse these sites information. These users create their own accounts and spread vulnerable information to the genuine users. This information may be advertising some product, send some malicious links etc to disturb the natural users on social sites. Spammer detection is a major problem now days in social networking sites. Previous spam detection techniques use different set of features to classify spam and non spam users. In this paper we proposed a hybrid approach which uses content based and user based features for identification of spam on Twitter network. In this hybrid approach we used decision tree induction algorithm and Bayesian network algorithm to construct a classification model. We have analysed the proposed technique on twitter dataset. Our analysis shows that our proposed methodology is better than some other existing techniques.

Yecid Muñoz , Adalberto Ospino , Carlos Robles , Carlos Arizmendi
Distributed power generation has grown in popularity in recent years, especially in areas not connected to the national grid. As a result, rural microgrids are becoming more common, involving great potential for energy based on biomass conversion such as gasification. After analyzing distributed power generation facilities in developing countries, the authors found problems with the frequency stability. This paper focuses on solving the problem of frequency control in energy supplied by microgrids based in biomass gasification. For that purpose, the authors have developed a physical model of a downdraft gasifier, this model was used for design a novel strategy for frequency control, which has been based and validated on an existing gasification system, which supplies power to a population in Necoclí (Colombia).

Impact of clustering in AODV routing protocol for wireless body area network in remote health monitoring system

10.11591/ijeecs.v13.i2.pp689-695

Proper selection of routing protocol in transmitting and receiving medical data in Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) is one of the approaches that would help in ensuring high network performances.  However, a continuous monitoring of health status through sensing of various vital body signals by multiple biosensors could produce a bulk of medical data and lead to the increase of network traffic. Occurrence of high traffic could result to network’s congestion which have high tendency to loss some of important (critical) data and cause longer delay that would lead to false diagnosis of diseases. In order to analyze and validate this issue, Ad-Hoc On Demand Distance Vector (AODV) which is known as reactive routing protocol is evaluated in WBAN scenario through varying number of nodes and clusters. The presence of clustering helps in reducing the burden of the sink nodes in handling high traffics. The network’s performances of this protocol are measured in terms of end to end delay, percentage packet loss, throughput and energy consumption using Network Simulator (NS-2). Based on the experimental results, the presence of cluster helps in improving network performances by achieving reduction in delay, packet loss and energy consumption. However, low throughput is achieved as number of clusters are increase due to low duty cycle of the nodes.

Optimized link state routing (OLSR) is a routing protocol that has a small delay, low traffic control, support the application of denser networks, and adopts the concept of multipoint relays (MPR). The problem of OLSR is routing table updating which continually causes excessive packet delivery, and energy consumption becomes increased. This article proposes the improvement of OLSR performance using the min-max algorithm based on the quality of service (QoS) with considering the density of the node. The Min-max algorithm works in selecting MPR nodes based on the largest signal range. The QoS parameters analyzed with a different number of nodes are packet delivery ratio (PDR), throughput, delay, energy consumption, and topology control (TC). Simulation result of network simulator version 2 (NS-2) shows that OLSR performance using the min-max algorithm can increase PDR of 91.17%, packet loss of 60.77% and reduce topology control packet of 8.07%, energy consumption of 16.82% compared with standard OLSR.

This paper presents the dielectric properties characterization of the rice and rice weevil for microwave heating disinfestation treatment application. Infestations of insects in stored grain have become a major threat to food supply globally. It contributes to damage to the stored grain and had caused economic losses. The current method to control the infestation which is by using chemical fumigation could give harm to human health and cause environmental pollution. The ability of microwave energy to kill the insects using dielectric heating technique has a high potential as an alternative method to control the infestation of the insect. Knowledge of dielectric properties of the insects is important to understand the interactions of the insect with electromagnetic fields. Hence, this paper presents the evaluation of the dielectric constant, and dielectric loss factor, of the insects and grain using open- ended coaxial probe method. The dielectric properties of the rice weevil, S. Oryzae and rice are measured using an open-ended dielectric probe. Found that the dielectric constant, loss factor and loss tangent for both samples are inversely proportional to the frequency.  Knowledge of the moisture content and temperature of the insects and rice is very important to characterize the dielectric properties for future development of microwave heating disinfestation treatment effectively.

In this paper, we propose to enhance the security performance of the color image encryption algorithm which depends on multi-chaotic systems. The current cryptosystem utilized a pixel-chaotic-shuffle system to encode images, in which the time of shuffling is autonomous to the plain-image. Thus, it neglects to the picked plaintext and known-plaintext attacks. Also, the statistical features of the cryptosystem are not up to the standard. Along these lines, the security changes are encircled to make the above attacks infeasible and upgrade the statistical features also. It is accomplished by altering the pixel-chaotic-shuffle component and including another pixel-chaotic-diffusion system to it. The keys for diffusion of pixels are extracted from the same chaotic arrangements created in the past stage. The renovation investigations and studies are performed to exhibit that the refreshed version of cryptosystem has better statistical features and invulnerable to the picked plaintext and known plaintext attacks than the current algorithm.

Accurate and early detection of plant diseases will facilitate mitigate the worldwide losses experienced by the agriculture area. MATLAB image processing provides quick and non-destructive means of rust disease detection. In this paper, microscopic image data of rust disease of Lentil was combined with image processing with depth information and developed a machine learning system to detect rust disease at early stage infected with fungus Uromyces fabae (Pers) de Bary. A novel feature set was extracted from the image data using local binary pattern (LBP) and HBBP (Brightness Bi-Histogram Equalization) for image enhancement. It was observed that by combining these, the accuracy of detection of the diseased plants at microscopic level was significantly improved. In addition, we showed that our novel feature set was capable of identifying rust disease at haustorium stage without spreading of disease.
