The Development of LOHAS Automated Guiding Vehicle

https://ijeecs.iaescore.com/index.php/IJEECS/article/view/2842
Cheng-I Hou , Han-Chen Huang , Tian-Syung Lan
Automated Guiding Vehicle (AGV) is widely used in factories, hospitals, warehouses, and offices. It can also be controlled remotely to operate under hazardous environments that are unsuitable for human presence. On the other hand, medical advancement and the decrease of birth rate are pushing the world into population aging. For elderly or the physically/mentally-challenged patient, some of the common foot problem includes diabetic foot, myotenositis, having calluses in the soles of the foot, foot deformities, etc. This research is aimed at the design and the implementation of an automated guiding vehicle, which is controlled by PC. Once the input is received from optical sensors, it will pass the information to chip, which will process the information and output the decision to stepping motor to finish the process. The research includes understanding the mechanical design, optical sensor input, defining the control units, and initiating stepping motor. Using BASIC programming, the program is burned onto a chip, which works as the central of the AGV. The result can be applied in barrier-free facilities. This research analyzes the pros and cons of AGV based on its behavior under different scenarios. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/telkomnika.v11i11.3537

Characteristics of Electromagnetic Pulse Coupling into Annular Apertures

https://ijeecs.iaescore.com/index.php/IJEECS/article/view/2845
Yan-Peng Sun , Shi Zhang , Xiao-He An , Hong-Peng Sun
Electromagnetic pulse (EMP) coupling into the annular apertures can disturb or damage much electronic equipment. To enhance electronic system’s  capability of anti-electromagnetic interference, the finite difference time domain method (FDTD) was employed to study the characteristics of electromagnetic pulse coupling into the cavity enclosures with annular apertures. The coupling characteristics of annular apertures with different shapes (rectangle, square and circle) were discussed. It shows that, in the case of the same aperture area, the coupling energy of electromagnetic pulse into the circular annular aperture is smaller than that into the rectangular and the square ones. To the rectangular annular aperture, while the polarization direction of the incident electromagnetic pulse is perpendicular to the long side of the rectangular annular aperture, the coupling energy is larger when the aspect ratio of the rectangular annular aperture is larger. The coupling effect of incident pulse with short pulse width is obviously better than the one with longer pulse width. The resonance phenomenon of the coupled waveform occurs in the cavity. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/telkomnika.v11i11.3544

A New Routing Protocol for Efficient and Secure Wireless Sensor Networks

https://ijeecs.iaescore.com/index.php/IJEECS/article/view/2838
Zhang Yu-quan , Wei Lei
This paper presents an improved LEACH protocol to save energy and enhance network security for wireless sensor networks. All nodes are distributed evenly in sensing area. The sensing area is divided into a number of small squares called cells, and a cluster consists of four cells. The cluster structure does not change in whole network lifetime. A cell head is chosen in each cell and a cluster head is selected from four cell heads in each cluster. The data are transmitted from clusters to the base station by employing the multi-hop manner. All nodes that communicate each other establish pairwise keys. Analysis demonstrates that the new routing protocol saves more node energy, distributes energy consumption to all nodes more evenly, prolongs more lifetime for WSNs than the LEACH protocol dose. Moreover, it enhances the security for WSNs. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/telkomnika.v11i11.3530

Tao He , Xingming Zhang , Tao Qin
This article study chip communication mechanisms deeply based on the NoC (Network on Chip) technology and a load equalization of virtual channel (LEVC) routing algorithm for Torus networks is proposed, which splits the physical network into virtual networks in the case of physical link load equalization. According to the predefined rules, packets use different virtual networks on their way to destinations and network achieve no deadlock, no livelock purpose. The algorithm study load equalization on the level of virtual channel by introducing the random factor. Simulation results show that compared with the negative first for Torus networks algorithm, the network performance can be dramatically improved for different traffic pattern by selecting a specific value of the random parameter respectively. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/telkomnika.v11i11.3483

10.11591/ijres.v2.i3.pp99-105
Bharatesh N , Rohith S
There are many problems arises in randomized algorithms whose solutions are fundamentally based on assumptions that pure random numbers exist, so pseudo-random number generators can imitate randomness sufficiently well for most applications. The proposed scheme is a FPGA implementation of Park-Miller Algorithm for generating sequence of Pseudo-Random keys. The properties like High speed, low power and flexibility of designed PRNG(Pseudo Random Number Generator) makes any digital circuit faster and smaller. The algorithm uses a PRNG Module, it contains 32-bit Booth Multiplier, 32-bit Floating point divider and a FSM module. After generating a sequence of 32-bit Pseudo-Random numbers we have used these numbers as a key to Encrypt 128-bit plain text to become a cipher text and by using the same key to decrypt the encrypted data to get original Plain text. The Programming is done in Verilog-HDL, successfully synthesized and implemented in XILINX Spartan 3E FPGA kit.

Hydraulic Motor Driving Variable-Pitch System for Wind Turbine

https://ijeecs.iaescore.com/index.php/IJEECS/article/view/2804
Ye HUANG , JiBao QI
The present hydraulic variable-pitch mechanism of wind turbine uses three hydraulic cylinders to drive three crank and connecting rod mechanisms respectively; the blades are moved with the cranks. The hydraulic variable-pitch mechanism has complex structure, occupies a lot of space and its maintenance is trouble. In order to make up for the shortcomings of hydraulic cylinder variable-pitch system, the present hydraulic variable-pitch mechanism should be changed as follows: hydraulic motors are used to drive gears; gears drive blades; the electro-hydraulic proportional valves are used to control hydraulic motors. The hydraulic control part and electrical control part of variable-pitch system is redesigned. The new variable-pitch system is called hydraulic motor driving variable-pitch system. The new variable-pitch system meets the control requirements of blade pitch, makes the structure simple and its application effect is perfect.  DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/telkomnika.v11i11.3494

10.11591/ijres.v2.i3.pp116-121
Farhad Rad , Ali Broumandnia
The H.264/AVC standard achieves remarkable higher compression performance than the previous MPEG and H.26X standards. One of the computationally intensive units in the MPEG and H.26X video coding families is the Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT). In this paper, we propose an efficient implementation of the DCT, inverse DCTs and the Hadamard transforms in the H.264/AVC encoder using VHDL. The synthesis results indicate that our implementation of the entire transforms achieves lower power, delay and area consumption compared to the existing architectures in the H.264/AVC encoder.

Junsheng Jiao
Due to the nonlinear P-I characteristic of fuel cells, it is very important to implement a maximum power point tracking (MPPT) controller for practical applications. Based on analyzing the output characteristics of fuel cell power system, this paper presents extremum seeking sliding mode control method for MPPT of fuel cell power system under variable temperature and water content conditions. The approach is a combination of the extremum seeking and sliding mode methods. The simulation results show that the approach improves clearly the tracking efficiency of the maximum power available at the output of the fuel cell modules. The new method reduces the oscillations around the MPP, which has shown better performances. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/telkomnika.v11i11.2976
