The recent advancements in technology and the availability of the Internet make it possible to connect various devices that can communicate with each other and share data. The Internet of Things (IoT) is a new concept that allows users to connect various sensors and smart devices to collect real-time data from the environment. However, it has been observed that a comprehensive platform is still missing in the e-Health and m-Health architectures to use smartphone sensors to sense and transmit important data related to a patient's health. In this paper, our contribution is twofold. Firstly, we critically evaluate the existing literature, which discusses the effective ways to deploy IoT in the field of medical and smart health care. Secondly, we propose a new semantic model for patients' e-Health. The proposed model named as `k-Healthcare' makes use of 4 layers; the sensor layer, the network layer, the Internet layer and the services layer. All layers cooperate with each other effectively and efficiently to provide a platform for accessing patients' health data using smart phones.

In the modern era of automotive industry, Active Front Steering (AFS) control is in hot pursuit due to its increased inbuilt vehicle maneuverability, reduced risk of instability and thereby significant reduction in number of accident occurrences. In this paper, a novel control strategy of Model Predictive Controller (MPC) with robust Optimal Guaranteed Cost Controller (OGCC) is introduced for AFS control. In the proposed scheme, MPC is designed to compensate for the effect of the driver's steering input, modeled as a known disturbance. Thus, providing the optimal solution by satisfying control input constraint. The OGCC controller renders the system robustness to the effect of system uncertainties, while achieving acceptable performance for tracking the desired vehicle trajectory. The complete controller scheme achieves the best results with RMS error <; 10-4 and thus whilst guaranteeing the stability of vehicle in the presence of uncertain environment. Numerical simulation results are performed to the effectiveness of the proposed approach over other conventional techniques.

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM), because of its different advantages, has been proposed as the enabling modulation technology for cognitive radios. However, the high sidelobes of the subcarriers are a major disadvantage that result in out-of-band radiation (OOB) causing interference to adjacent licensed users. Subcarrier weighting is an efficient technique for suppressing these sidelobes. This paper proposes the genetic algorithm to solve the subcarrier weighting technique's optimization problem that gives the optimum weight vector for sidelobe suppression. The genetic algorithm calculates the weights of the OFDM subcarriers in an optimized way such that the sidelobes of these subcarriers interfere destructively with each other, resulting in a smooth signal in the optimization range thus the sidelobes are suppressed and minimal interference is offered to adjacent users.

In the literature a technique for sidelobe suppression is presented that utilizes product of two polynomials. In this paper, a method is presented for efficient sidelobe suppression by proper selection of sidelobe region. For this purpose, it is proposed to observe the radiation pattern of the first polynomial to find out the position of right and left nulls adjacent to the main beam. The region outside these nulls is proposed to be utilized for sidelobe region while finding the weights of second polynomial that is meant for sidelobe suppression. This will provide maximum overlap of main beams of the two polynomials and suppress sidelobes efficiently. Simulation results confirm the validity of the proposed method.

A heterojunction PIN Diode in which an intrinsic layer (I-layer) of In0.53Ga0.47As is sandwiched between N-layer of In0.52Al0.48As and p-layer of In0.53Ga0.47As is modelled and investigated using TCAD simulation. At all ternary uniformly doped epitaxial growth is assumed for all layers with abrupt heterojunction interfaces. Since the epitaxial design of I-layer is most critical in PIN diode operations, the thickness of I-layer is varied in TCAD simulation to calculate maximum leakage current and breakdown voltage in reverse bias operation, and turn on voltage at forward bias operation. By optimizing epitaxial structure of I-layer, we have demonstrated improved DC characteristics for modelled device. S-parameters are then calculated and discussed for a Single Pole Single Throw (SPST) switch configuration of PIN Diode.

Optimization is a mathematical technique that concerns the finding of maxima or minima of functions in some feasible region. There is no business or industry which is not involved in solving optimization problems. A variety of optimization techniques compete for the best solution. Economic Dispatch (ED) is also one of the optimization problem. ED is the process of determining optimal output of available number of electric power generating stations in order to meet total system load, at a minimum possible cost while serving power to the public in a robust and reliable manner satisfying physical and operational constraints. Scarcity of energy resources, ever growing production cost of generation and increased load demand, there is a need to optimize the economic dispatch problem. In this research work, a hybrid technique proposed to solve non-linear ED problem named as Hybrid Particle Swarm Optimization with Gravitational Search Algorithm (HPSO-GSA) considering/neglecting valve point effects, prohibited operating zones, ramp rate limits and transmission losses. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed Hybrid PSO-GSA algorithm has been tested on different generating unit test systems with different constraints and defined load demands. The simulation results of proposed algorithm are in comparison with the techniques in literature proves the efficiency and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

Thermal effects play an important role on the performance of electric motors for the applications in traction/propulsion systems. In these type of applications, there is a feedback loop as well as transients are involved. The torque speed characteristics of the electric motors are dependent upon the motor parameters such as armature/rotor resistance, stator resistance etc. The parameters are significantly affected by the temperature because change in temperature is very high in propulsion systems. As a result, the performance of electric motors used in propulsion systems is degraded. In this paper, the thermal effects on electric motors are combined at one place which is not done before. This will be quite helpful for the researchers of this area to study the thermal effects on the performance of electric motors collectively.

This paper presents the design of multi and wide band frequency reconfigurable monopole antenna, using FR4 as a substrate with thickness of 1.6mm. The radiating element is printed on a truncated metallic ground plane. The antenna works in a single-band and two dual-band modes using two switches. The single-band (WiMAX at 3.45GHz) mode is obtained when both switches (SW1 and SW2) are in OFF state. The first Dual-band (Wi-Fi at 2.45 GHz and WLAN at 5.45 GHz) mode is achieved when one particular switch of the two switches is turned ON. When both switches are turned ON, the antenna functions in the second dual band mode(GSM at 1.8GHz and WLAN at 5.45GHz). This monopole antenna is designed using computer simulation technology 2011(CST Microwave studio). The designed antenna's performance is examined on the basis of return loss, radiation pattern, Gain,Efficiency and VSWR.

In this paper on body investigation has been done on microstrip patch antenna using Velcro as a substrate at 2.4 GHz and different parameters (gain, directivity, efficiency) were watched. Alongside this the estimation of SAR (Specific Absorption Rate) has been measured averaged over the 10 g of tissue. Gain and directivity were extraordinarily influenced in view of ingestion of radiation by the human body with efficiency of 40.81% while the estimation of SAR is 4.63 W/kg which is beyond the safe level of 2 W/kg as indicated by European IEC Standard. Slotted I Metamaterial surface is utilized as a ground plane for Microstrip patch antennadue to which the SAR is decreased from 4.63 W/kg to 1.23 W/kg i.e. 73.43% diminishment in SAR as indicated by the standard which is in the protected zone. In addition ithas enhanced the efficiency from 40.81% to 41.35%.This is because of its two important properties of suppressing the surface waves and in phase reflection. Simulations are accomplished in CST MWS.

Monitoring a large number of interacting sensors, actuators and controllers in sensitive locations simultaneously, requires efficient and fast network. Sophisticated computer controlled systems in modern aircrafts have become a necessity. Wired connectivity can be both awkward and hazardous. In this paper we propose wireless connectivity based on Impulse-Radio Ultra Wideband (IR-UWB) system. It is a promising technology for the exchange of high data rates in a limited space. It acts like a Personal Local Area Network (PLAN) suitable for limited space within an aircraft. The proposed scheme utilizes the novel pulse generator developed in these laboratories. The pulse shapes comply with the FCC regulations regarding power levels and spectral mask limitations. It mitigates interference effects with narrowband systems. The proposed scheme has been analyzed theoretically and implemented practically giving sound results. It has so far proved to be an excellent short-range communication technology in terms of cost, speed, power consumption and capacity. A practical system is designed and built, which is capable of operating in the Gbps range. The proposal is anticipated to open possibilities for further applications such as ships, control towers operating theaters, and any other application where a large number of peripherals are in interaction simultaneously. The UWB pulse generator produces pulses, which are portions of simple monocycle sine wave shapes in the GHz range. Results obtained through simulation and theoretical analysis show excellent and constant agreement with results obtained by experimental measurements.
