Aatish Chandak , Arjun Aravind , Nithin Kamath
The methods for autonomous navigation of a robot in a real world environment is an area of interest for current researchers. Although there have been a variety of models developed, there are problems with regards to the integration of sensors for navigation in an outdoor environment like moving obstacles, sensor and component accuracy. This paper details an attempt to develop an autonomous robot prototype using only ultrasonic sensors for sensing the environment and GPS/ GSM and a digital compass for position and localization. An algorithm for the navigation based on reactive behaviour is presented. Once the robot has navigated to its final location based on remote access by the owner, it surveys the geographical region and uploads the real time images to the owner using an API that is developed for the Raspberry PI’s kernel.

Blind Signal Processing Algorithmsbased based on Recursive Gradient Estimation

10.11591/ijece.v5i3.pp548-561
Namyong Kim , Mingoo Kang
Blind algorithms based on the Euclidean distance (ED) between the output distribution function and a set of Dirac delta functions have a heavy computational burden of  due to some double summation operations for the sample size and symbol points. In this paper, a recursive approach to the estimation of the ED and its gradient is proposed to reduce the computational complexity for efficient implementation of the algorithm. The ED of the algorithm is comprised of information potentials (IPs), and the IPs at the next iteration can be calculated recursively based on the currently obtained IPs. Utilizing the recursively estimated IPs, the next step gradient for the weight update of the algorithm can be estimated recursively with the present gradient. With this recursive approach, the computational complexity of gradient calculation has only . The simulation results show that the proposed gradient estimation method holds significantly reduced computational complexity keeping the same performance as the block processing method

The Adaptive Federal Unscented Particle Filter Algorithm with Applications in All-Attitude Integrated BDS/INS Navigation System

https://ijeecs.iaescore.com/index.php/IJEECS/article/view/1507
Ping Luo , Li-jie Yuan , Liang-xue Huang , Xian-fei Li
In order to improve the attitude accuracy, the thesis establishes the all-attitude integrated BDS/INS navigation nonlinear system model based on the position, velocity, attitude by adding the BDS’s attitude measurement information into the measurement equation of the traditional BDS/INS integrated navigation nonlinear system model. Considering the problem that the dynamic navigation system model is difficult to accurately describe the complex navigation environment, the thesis improves the dynamic characteristics of the information distribution of the federal filter algorithm which could timely change based on the eigenvalues ratio of each subsystem’s error variance matrix. Then, the adaptive federal unscented particle filter (AFUPF) is proposed. The simulation shows that the proposed algorithm could effectively weaken the impact on the system accuracy of the inaccurate high-dynamic model, and improve the adaptability, the fault tolerance and the accuracy, especially the attitude accuracy. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/telkomnika.v14i3.8069

10.11591/ijece.v5i3.pp443-453
Prashu Jain , K. Nithiyananthan , Raghuraman Raghuraman , Gowrishankar Kasilingam
Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems control and monitor industrial and critical infrastructure functions, such as electricity, gas, water, waste, railway, and traffic. The main objective of this work is to develop SCADA simulation model for packaging system in dry ice plant. Dry ice is an important refrigerant for keeping foods cold and preventing bacterial growth during shipment. Dry ice used for cooling or freezing foods must be very clean and considered food grade to ensure that food it may touch will not be contaminated. Some recent developments for its use include using the pellets in blasting or cleaning and its increasing use in transporting medical specimens, including hearts, limbs, and tissues, for reattachment and transplantation. The manufacturing process of dry ice has not changed significantly in many decades and is a relatively simple process of pressurizing and cooling gaseous carbon dioxide. But because of its growing demand, packaging becomes vital. An attempt has been made to develop and automate LOGIXPRO based SCADA simulations for dry ice plant to improve packaging and extensively reduce operating labor costs.

Probabilistic Road-Aware Geocast In VANETs

10.11591/ijece.v5i3.pp599-610
Zubair Amjad , Wang-Cheol Song
Geocast is a communication technique to disseminate information in specific geographic regions instead of node addresses. Traffic congestion, accidents, local hazards and digital content sharing are potential use cases of information sharing in VANETs. Recently, several approaches for geocast routing have been proposed to achieve high delivery ratios. These approaches consider a center point and radius to define the destination region also called geocast region. They focus only on routing scheme to enhance the delivery ratio and delays. However, these approaches do not consider the target region selection problem in the geocast routing. In this paper, we propose a novel application-level mechanism for sharing road conditions, such as accidents, detours and congestion in VANETs through probabilistic road-aware geocast routing. We assign probabilities to the roads around each intersection in the neighborhood road network of the source vehicle. We then build a spanning tree of roads (from graph representation of the road network) with information source as the root node. Nodes below the root represent junctions and edges represent inter-connecting road segments. Messages propagate along the branches of the spanning tree. The spanning tree represents the geocast region. As the information propagates down the branches, probability of road as geocast region decreases. Information is propagated until a threshold probability is reached. Our method also ensures that messages are not delivered to irrelevant vehicles irrespective of their proximity to the source. We evaluate our application through extensive and realistic simulations in ns-3 simulator using IDM car following and MOBIL lane change models for realistic modeling of vehicle mobility.

https://ijeecs.iaescore.com/index.php/IJEECS/article/view/1498
Sathishkumar Shanmugam , Meenakumari Ramachandran
For the past two decades, Brushless DC motor has become more efficient and robust motor in industrial applications due to their simplicity in structure, reliability, good mechanical properties. The absence of brushes features these motors similar to AC motors whereas their speed performance is nearly equal to that of the DC motors. Thus the combined advantages of AC and DC motors make these motors more efficient in various applications. The design was based on the output equation similar to that of conventional dc machines. This generates high-resolution PWM outputs, used to control the switching pattern of the BLDC Inverter. By varying the PWM signal produced from the microcontroller, the speed of the motor can be varied. The Hall Effect sensing unit gives information about the rotor position and based on this rotor information, switching sequence of the MOSFET is decided. The firing pulses to the gate of the MOSFET are given by the Control Signal Generation Module. Based on the developed model simulation studies are performed in Matlab/Simulink environment and hardware implementation of BLDCM drive using Lead acid battery as source With Lithium ion capacitor   system is done and  results were analysed  using Digital Scope Oscilloscope (DSO) and output Carried Out Sucessfully.  DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/telkomnika.v14i3.7938

Indu Verma , Amarjeet Kaur , Iqbaldeep Kaur
Data Mining is extraction of relevant information about data set. A data-warehouse is a location where information is stored. There are various services of data mining, clustering is one of them. Clustering is an effort to group similar data onto single cluster. In this paper we propose and implement k-mean and neural network for clustering same components in single cluster. Clustering reduces the search space by grouping similar test cases together according to the requirements and, hence minimizing the search time, for the retrieval of the test cases, resulting in reduced time complexity. In this research paper we proposed approach for re-usability of test cases by unsupervised approach and supervised approach. In unsupervised learning we proposed k-mean and in supervised learning neural network. We have designed the algorithm for requirement and test case document clustering according to its tf-idf vector space and the output is set of highly cohesive pattern groups.

D-S evidence theory is usually used for the fusion of multi-source information. But the fusion result is always against with general knowledge for the heavy conflict of evidence. Research on combination of conflict evidence at home and abroad is summarized and analyzed in detail. On the base of this, the conclusion that modified evidence combination method of conflict evidence is more useful can be dawn. Effective evidence conflict measure is the first step of conflict evidence combination. The existing conflict measure methods are summarized and the main problem of those methods is analyzed in detail. Based on previous research of conflict evidence combination, a modified measure factor of evidence conflict which is called Mconf is put forward. Mconf is mainly built up with modified distance of evidence named mdBPA and traditional evidence conflict factor named k. The examples in this paper show that Mconf can measure the evidence conflict correctly, both for general evidence and conflict evidence. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/telkomnika.v14i3.7850

A Power Factor Corrected Bridgeless Type III Cuk Derived Converter fed BLDC Motor Drive

https://ijeecs.iaescore.com/index.php/IJEECS/article/view/1493
J. Pearly Catherine , R. Balamurugan
This paper deals with the power factor correction in BLDC motor drive with different cuk derived converter topologies and the best one is simulated for power factor correction operation. Power quality issues is the major concern in the BLDC motor drive due to recommended limits of harmonics in the supply current. Conventionally the BLDC motors are powered with the help of diode bridge rectifiers which results in highly distorted supply current and poor power factor. So modification in converter topology is the research hotspot in recent years. Alternatively bridgeless converter topologies are used in place of diode bridge rectifiers (DBR). Among the bridgeless topologies cuk derived converters suited well for power factor correction. In this paper the different cuk topologies are investigated and the best one is simulated with the help of neuro-fuzzy controller in MATLAB/Simulink platform.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/telkomnika.v14i3.7893
