Audio, image and video signals produce a vast amount of data. The only solution of this problem is to compress data before storage and transmission. In general there is the three crucial terms as, Bit Rate Reduction, Fast Data Transfer and Reduction in Storage. Rate control is a vigorous factor in video coding. In video communications, rate control must ensure the coded bitstream can be transmitted effectively and make full use of the narrow bandwidth. There are various test models usually suggested by a standard during the development of video codes models in order to video coding which should be suffienciently be efficient based on H.264 at very low bit rate. These models are Test Model Number 5 (TMN5), Test Model Number 8 for H.263, and Verification Model 8 (VM8) for MPEG-4 and H.264 etc. In this work, Rate control analysis for H.264, MPEG-4 performed. For Rate control analysis test model verification model version 8.0 is adopted.

Performance Evaluation of Multichannel Audio Compression

10.11591/ijeecs.v10.i1.pp146-153
Teddy Surya Gunawan , Mira Kartiwi
In recent years, multichannel audio systems are widely used in modern sound devices as it can provide more realistic and engaging experience to the listener. This paper focuses on the performance evaluation of three lossy, i.e. AAC, Ogg Vorbis, and Opus, and three lossless compression, i.e. FLAC, TrueAudio, and WavPack, for multichannel audio signals, including stereo, 5.1 and 7.1 channels. Experiments were conducted on the same three audio files but with different channel configurations. The performance of each encoder was evaluated based on its encoding time (averaged over 100 times), data reduction, and audio quality. Usually, there is always a trade-off between the three metrics. To simplify the evaluation, a new integrated performance metric was proposed that combines all the three performance metrics. Using the new measure, FLAC was found to be the best lossless compression, while Ogg Vorbis and Opus were found to be the best for lossy compression depends on the channel configuration. This result could be used in determining the proper audio format for multichannel audio systems.

10.11591/ijpeds.v9.i1.pp240-251
H.V.Gururaja Rao , Karuna Mudliyar , R.C. Mala
Renewable energy sources are increasingly being used today and solar energy is the most readily and abundantly available energy source. Boost converters are an integral part of any solar energy system. In order to obtain maximum possible energy from the solar system multi-phase interleaved boost converters are used. This paper presents the small-signal ac modelling and closed loop control of three-phase interleaved boost converter. State–space modelling methodology has been adopted to have linearized equivalent model of the boost converter. The interleaved three-phase boost converter is averaged over its one switching period and perturbed with small ac variations and finally linearized around its quiescent point to have a small signal ac model. Type III compensator is employed to improve the frequency response and closed loop control of three-phase boost converter. The controller design procedure is discussed in detail. The effect of right-half plane zero in non-minimum phase system and the appropriate pole-zero placements to overcome the maximum phase lag in such system is discussed. The compensated closed loop system is tested for load variations to observe the transient response.

Sofea Ramli , Sharifalillah Nordin
Predicting personality generally involves personal interpretations of a person which makes the current methods for personality prediction process less adequate, timely and tedious. Thus, a simple yet efficient alternative method is proposed in this project for detecting iris positions which are used in Neuro-Linguistic Programming as clues for the human internal representational system and mental activity. This study set out to determine several positions of the iris of a person based on the Eye Accessing Cues. The design and the development of a complete system will be undertaken as for the users to use as a medium to predict their personality based on their iris position. Several pre-processing techniques were executed to each of the data before run into the testing and training activities for accuracy gaining. The algorithm used for classification of the positions is Support Vector Machine which by taking rectangle crop of an eye with 9000 pixels as inputs. Radial Basis Function is used for the kernel parameter of the proposed method. The classification will then map into the type of a person with the lists of his personality based on Visual, Auditory and Kinaesthetic theory. The result of the classification of the iris positions is currently 84.9% accurate which in the future might be increased by tuning several other parameters that consisted in Support Vector Machine.

Side Effects of Damping Element Insertion in LCL Filter for DC/AC Inverter

10.11591/ijpeds.v9.i1.pp443-456
Faizal Arya Samman , Ma'arif Hasan , Tirza Damayanti
The negative impacts or side effects of a damper circuit insertion in an LCL passive filter utilized to filter DC/AC inverters output voltage is presented in this paper. For comparative study, this paper discusses two damping configurations, namely series and parallel damping, as well as the LCL filter without damping element. Four criteria are used to explore the impacts of the damper circuits, i.e. their total  harmonic distortions (THDs), the output voltage amplitude, the output power and the power efficiency. Theoretically and emphirically shown by previous studies, the damper can indeed reduce the peak resonance frequency of the filter in its frequency response curve. However, in any circumstance, it can potentially reduce the inverters power and efficiency, voltage output amplitude, and cannot improve its THD reduction. The analysis results have shown that the side effects depends also on the load conditions, which are different for each damping circuit configuration.

Direct Torque Control Strategy of PMSM Employing Ultra Sparse Matrix Converter

10.11591/ijpeds.v9.i1.pp64-72
Muldi Yuhendri , Ahyanuardi Ahyanuardi , Aswardi Aswardi
Matrix converter is a good choice for Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) drives, because it has high power density and does not require dc-link energy storage. the disadvantages of conventional matrix converter is using 18 active switches, so it becomes expensive and the modulation method becomes more complicated than back to back converter. To minimize this problem, this paper proposes variable speed drive of PMSM using Ultra Sparse Matrix Converter (USMC) based on Direct Torque Control (DTC) methods. This converter uses only 9 active switches, making it cheaper than conventional matrix converter. DTC is designed based on Space Vector Modulation (SVM) to reduce torque and flux ripples due to  the hysteresis control in conventional DTC. The simulation results show that DTC based SVM using USMC effectively controls the rotor speed with low torque and flux ripples.
