Internet of Things has been evolving at a much faster pace from past few years, as it is being one of the most funded research area. The development of various forms of wireless sensor networks and the requirement of their being inter connected led to the development of Internet of Things. This work provides an insight of various Wireless Sensor Networks whose protocols and architecture forms a boon to the development of existing Internet of Things. This study discusses WirelessHART, ZigBee, and ISA.100 which are some of these communication standards. Further, this study presents a discussion of contrast and similarities of Internet of Things (IoT) with the most effective wireless sensor networks.

Node Iocalization enabled wireless sensor network has gained immense popularity in real time due to its faster execution, high coverage area, performance and connectivity. It can achieve the primary objectives such as high connectivity and coverage area in wireless sensor networks. To completely exploit the wireless sensor networks, it is very essential to achieve a high connectivity between sensor nodes and gateways of sensor networks. Therefore, here, we have introduced a novel Local Isolated Node Localization in Wireless Sensor Networks based on probability analysis to locate the isolate node probability precisely, enhance connectivity between nodes and improve coverage area and scalability. A local collaborative pair method is introduced for isolated node recognition and ensures high connectivity. Experimental results verifies superiority of our proposed Isolated Node Localization model in terms of distance between sensor nodes, high connectivity and coverage area, identification of isolated sensor node location when networks are coinciding with each other at the boundaries and it also consider channel randomness while searching for connectivity between nodes.

Tire is an essential automotive component, since it plays an important role in safety, mobility, fuel economy and ride comfort. Road irregularitiescauses deflection of carcass which is an internal layer of tire that sustains load and absorbs shock. This causes tire to generate faulty input to the steering which reduces durability of the automobile in the long run. In this project, MOEMS (Micro Opto-Electro Mechanical System) based sensor associated with photonic crystal is developed to observe carcass deflection and to study its characteristics in order to design a more efficientautomobile. The MOEMS device functionality is achieved through micromechanical sub- wavelength inward displacement of the dielectric slabs. The finite-difference time-domain(FDTD) methodis usedfor analysis of the results with the help of MEEP software. Simulation results show that the displacement occurring (of the dielectric slabs) will change the dimensions of the waveguide carved in the photonic crystal having silicon as a substrate. As a result, this change in spacing alters the propagation virtue of electromagnetic waves that run through them, due to periodic modulation of refractive index. Results show that distinct shift in frequency with high quality factor of 37074.566 was obtained by displacing the inclined and vertical slab by keeping horizontal slabs fixed.

In this work various machine learning techniques such as support vector machine (SVM), nearest neighbor (k-NN), artificial neural network (ANN) has been used for detection of Parkinson disease. Input features are collected from the handwriting of various normal and Parkinson persons. The inputs and their corresponding targets are given to machine learning based methods. A comparative study of SVM, k-NN and ANN has been carried out. Accuracy of the proposed method is found to be 100% for all the tested data. Hence machine learning based methods can be put to use in real time scenario.

A compact metamaterial based antenna is proposed in this research. The antenna has a compact area only 289 mm2 (17 × 17mm2).The antenna consists of metamaterial of regular decagonal split ring resonator (RDSRR) as a radiating part and a feed line. The metamaterial RDSRR analysis through waveguide medium has been discussed in detail. The antenna exhibits resonance at 6.5GHz with S11 <_10dB bandwidth of 120 MHz (6.46–6.58 GHz). A gain of 3 dBi, good impedance matching and stable radiation pattern at the operational bandwidths makes the proposed design suitable for satellite applications.

Epigraphs are important sources for reshaping our culture and history. They have a remarkable importance to mankind. But modern epigraphists find it difficult to interpret the information in scripts. It is mainly because inscriptions are eroded over a period of time due to natural calamities. Scripts of ancient times are largely unknown. Character sets used have changed from one form to another over the centuries. Therefore, for reading ancient scripts the characters have to be extracted. In this paper, a model for enhancement and binarization of historical epigraphs is proposed. This model consists phase congruency and of Gaussian model based background elimination using expectation maximization(EM) algorithm, preprocessing and binarization. In binarization, phase based features are used with specialised filters. Adaptive Gaussian filters are used to smoothen the output images. Weighted mean angle is calculated to differentiate the foreground from the background. EM algorithm removes the background noise completely where foreground characters are untouched. Proposed method is tested on different datasets of inscriptions and epigraphs. Obtained results are compared with the existing classical algorithms.

Energy plays a major parameter in wireless communication which needs prior focus to achieve effectiveness in telecommunication sector. Researchers in the past were separately focusing on wired and wireless parts of the system. However, combining both will improve the efficiency of energy distribution in the entire communication system. An integrated model is proposed composed of combined control unit component which helps to deploy the Select & Sleep Mechanism (SSM) for energy efficient enhancement in 5th generation for IOT. The two different mechanisms are introduced for both the wired and wireless part of the system in SSM i.e. cellular segregation (CS) mechanism and pre-catching mechanism. MATLAB is used as an aid to evaluate the performance of these mechanisms. Results of the proposed model are compared with the Traditional Zooming Scheme (TZS) as a part of validation. It is found that the proposed model shows a reduced power consumption in comparison with Traditional Zooming Scheme.

Water is one of the most essential nature’s gifts to the manhood and without water no one can imagine their lives. Now man recognized the water significance, particularly where water is not easily available [1]. Now this is being achieved in an appropriate manner in city areas where the use of water is more than its availability [2]. One of the inspiration is to organize computing techniques in creating a barrier to wastage in order to, not only provide more economic gains and energy saving, but also helps the environment and water cycle which in turn guarantees that we save water for our future [3]. There are several problems of electricity in rural area. Also the small towns are incapable to use electricity based level sensors in small industries or domestic tanks. This paper describes the design and implementation of water level sensor prototype without power supply. The sensor consists of low cost materials. Hence sensor is cost effective, reliable and could be made easily available in rural area.

One of the important part of IoT ecosystem is wearable device technology, that has many applications in day to day life. Due to resource constraints, complex security protocols are not feasible for tiny wearable devices. Hence, alternative approaches employing wireless channel characteristics have been proposed by many researchers. In this work, we propose a novel symmetric key generation scheme for wearable IoT devices that exploits the unique features of wireless channel link quality indicator (LQI), compared to other parameter e.g., received signal strength (RSS) used in prior work. We select LQI as a parameter of interest since it is the measure of the channel link quality connecting two communicating parties, whereas RSS is the total energy measured by radio including noise. We implement our solution on of f-the-shelf IoT devices and demonstrate experimentally that our scheme is lightweight and suitable for practical applications.
