A Novel Hydro Powered Online Power Converter for Marine Lighting Applications

10.11591/ijeecs.v9.i1.pp15-19
Sinu KJ , G. Ranganathan
This paper presents a new hydro energy based dc-dc PFC sepic based buck converter for marine lighting applications. The major advantage of the proposed power converter is high power factor and low THD with higher efficiency. SEPIC converter produces continuous smooth ripple free current because of two inductors in series in line in its circuit. Sepic converter produces lower switching losses because of lower voltage stress on power switch employed compared to other buck-boost converter topologies. Tidal wave energy is converted into mechanical energy with the help of a hydro turbine which drives a permanent magnet synchronous generator to produce three phase ac output voltage. It produces a low ac voltage which is converted into DC using passive diode rectifier and fed to sepic converter for voltage regulation as well as to improve quality of power supply such as high power factor, low THD. The proposed sepic based power converter for marine lighting application is simulated in MATLAB/Simulink environment for verifying the performance of proposed scheme.

Adaptive Link Aware on-demand Multicast Routing Scheme in MANET

10.11591/ijeecs.v9.i1.pp56-59
Ruban Chakravarthy , G. Ranganathan
The main objective of this paper is to propose a new multicast routing scheme to adopt with the dynamic topology of MANET at the same time to provide high multicast efficiency and packet delivery ratio. The proposed scheme is named as Link Aware on Demand Multicast Routing (LAOMR) scheme. In this scheme, initially the source node forms the multicast group by announcing itself as a multicast source agent to all the nodes in the network. The nodes which are eager to join in the group are sending the join request to the source node. Then the source node finds the route to reach the multicast group through some intermediate nodes. The intermediate nodes are not interested to hear the multicast message but they are act as the routers to forward the packets to the multicast group. The intermediate nodes are chosen based on the link residual life (LRL) of the nodes. The node which has the highest LRL and closer to the multicast group is selected as the forwarder node. So, the proposed scheme reduces the link failure in the multicast route and increases the multicast efficiency, throughput. The performance is evaluated by using the simulation results obtained from NS2 Simulator.

10.11591/ijeecs.v9.i1.pp146-151
S.Sarifah Radiah Shariff , Hamdan Abdul Maad , Nursyaza Narsuha Abdul Halim , Zuraidah Derasit
Road accidents continuously become a major problem in Malaysia and consequently cause loss of life or property. Due to that, many road accident data have been collected by highway concessionaries or build–operate–transfer operating companies in the country meant for coming up with proper counter measures. Several analyses can be done on the accumulated data in order to improve road safety. In this study the reported road accidents cases in North South Expressway (NSE) from Sungai Petani to Bukit Lanjan during 2011 to 2014 period is analyzed. The aim is to determine whether the pattern is clustered at certain area and to identify spatial pattern of hot spots across this longest controlled-access expressway in Malaysia as hotspot represents the location of the road which is considered high risk and the probability of traffic accidents in relation to the level of risk in the surrounding areas. As no methodology for identifying hotspot has been agreed globally yet; hence this study helped determining the suitable principles and techniques for determination of the hotspot on Malaysian highways. Two spatial analysis techniques were applied, Nearest Neighborhood Hierarchical (NNH) Clustering and Spatial Temporal Clustering, using CrimeStat® and visualizing in ArcGIS™ software to calculate the concentration of the incidents and the results are compared based on their accuracies. Results identified several hotspots and showed that they varied in number and locations, depending on their parameter values. Further analysis on selected hot spot location showed that Spatial Temporal Clustering (STAC) has a higher accuracy index compared to Nearest Neighbor Hierarchical Clustering (NNH). Several recommendations on counter measures have also been proposed based on the details results.

Data Spread among Vehicular Networks with Minimal Cost and Privacy

10.11591/ijeecs.v9.i1.pp111-114
Atul Kulkarni , Debajyoti Mukhopadhyay
Currently, choosing a node to carry the files via network is inefficient due to multiple end-users are requesting for packets at the same time. The problem is to identify the shortest path, traffic cost is high, and hackers enter the network to access the file. Whenever user requesting for packets to service provider, it has been carried out via router to provide security and effective way of transmission without any hackers. We proposed a VAN router that manages the transmission process. Once the packet enters router follows: (i) identifies the shortest path to transmit the packets, (ii) analyze the migration cost, (iii) when a hacker enters the network, the details of the hacker is send to the GPS to identify hackers location, (iv) provides the user requested packets back to the user without any modification. GPS work is to identify the hacker location in which node they are trying to access the files and that information has been sent to the user where hacker enters the network. Each packet sent by the service provider via router to end-user, the router intimates service provider with a confirmation message. Finally, VAN router provides security to the end-user by avoiding hackers to access the file and minimizes traffic cost, finds shortest path.

An investigation into optimized support vector machine (SVM) integrated with principal component analysis (PCA) and orthogonal least square (OLS) in classifying asphyxiated infant cry was performed in this study. Three approaches were used in the classification; SVM, PCA-SVM, and OLS-SVM. Various numbers of features extracted from Mel-frequency Cepstral coefficient (MFCC) were tested to obtain the optimal parameters of SVM kernels. Once the optimal feature set is obtained, PCA and OLS selected the most significant features and the optimized SVM then classified the selected cry patterns. In PCA-SVM, eigenvalue-one-criterion (EOC), cumulative percentage variance (CPV) and the Scree test (SCREE) were used to select the most significant features. SVM with radial basis function (RBF) kernel was chosen in the classification stage. The classification accuracy and computation time were computed to evaluate the performance of each method. The best method for classifying asphyxiated infant cry is PCA-SVM with EOC since it produces the highest classification accuracy which is 94.84%. Using PCA-SVM, the classification process was performed in 1.98s only. The results also show that employing feature selection techniques could enhance the classifier performance.
