This papers deals with implementation of software algorithm of an AGC technique having wide dynamic control range in burst communication. The proposed AGC mechanism consists of a microcontroller with built in ADC, pre & post attenuators, VGA and a RMS detector. Typically, RMS detectors are available with limited dynamic control range of 50-55 dB i.e., either from -10 to -60dBm or -30 to -80dBm. In this work, the dynamic range of such RMS detector has been widened by making an efficient use of pre attenuator. Dynamic range of 80dBis achieved using the proposed technique.

To model the Multiphase flow along with phase transition process is a challenging task. In the present paper, capability of Lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) to simulate flow through complex geometries and multiphase flow has been discussed. LBM is an innovative computational fluid dynamics (CFD) approach based on kinetic models. It describes the physical system as an artificial micro-world of the particles in which the particles simply propagate, collide and interact. To check the validity of LBM, simulations have been performed for two dimensional Poisuelle flow as a test problem and compared with analytical result. Then simulations results for various geometries resembling the porous media, introduced in the flow have also been presented. For the simulation of multiphase flow involving phase transition Shan and Chen model has been used. Periodic boundary conditions have been applied in all directions. Then gravity has been introduced as the driving force. Phase transition occur spontaneously whenever the interaction strength between the particles exceeds its threshold limit. Results have been verified by Laplace law. Finally, it has been concluded that LBM is a simulation method of choice for simulating flow through porous media and multiphase flow.

GPS and INS integration is attracting researchers for decades. Advent of MEMS inertial sensors and low cost GPS receivers extended the use of this technology to airborne /ground vehicle navigation, mining, surveillance and robotics. Complementary characteristics of GPS and INS with Kalman filter can overcome the problem of huge INS drifts, GPS outages, dense urban multipath effects and other individual problems associated with these sensors. Extended Kalman filter (EKF) needs linearized system and measurement models, hence performs Jacobian or Hessian matrix evaluation on each time step. If small angle error assumption does not hold and system nonlinearity and large initial attitude errors are an issue Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF) is preferred over EKF. Although UKF does not evaluate Jacobian but it has a problem of Cholesky matrix factorization which is an unstable operation and leads towards divergence. Square Root Unscented Filters (SRUKF) solves this particular problem but still cannot work with non Gaussian noises A very few people have utilized Square Root Unscented Kalman filter in navigation application so far. This research explores use of different configuration of UKF like Central Difference UKF (CDUKF) along with SRUKF and SRCDUKF in the presence of large initial attitude errors, GPS outages and increased levels of noise. A Square Root Unscented Particle filter (SRUPF) is tested with ZUPT technique and in flight alignment to overcome non Gaussian noises. All the filters are tested on navigation grade sensors in loosely coupled mode. Trajectories of up to one hour duration are utilized to evaluate performance. CDUKF was found best in computation time and accuracy. This filter is found more stable towards increased level of noise.

This paper encompasses the sensitivity of SNR due to ambient noise sources individually using gradient method. The Gradient method has its own significance in the mathematical modeling and the purpose of using this method is of two fold; First, it gives the sensitivity of selected dependent variable with respect to the small and systematic changes in the independent variables separately or compositely in an equation. Second, it helps to determine a way to search for the optimal region or optimal values of the independent variables. Hence, this paper is intended to highlight the optimal region in order to determine a direction for the improvement of SNR in an underwater acoustic communication channel. In this paper, the gradient vectors of SNR have been modeled in MATLAB keeping in consideration the parameters as turbulence, shipping activities, wind and heat involved in underwater acoustic communication channel. The input model of SNR has been kept devoid of probability theory and uses some statistical approximations of underwater acoustic noise. Due to the absence of randomness in the variables of input model of SNR, the model output offers no uncertainties; hence giving a deterministic simulation model of the gradient vectors.

This paper presents a new hybrid type of phase shifter that employs basic Schiffman lines. Compared with conventional coupled line and Schiffman line phase shifters the new hybrid design shows advantage of optimally very small phase shift error of (±5°) over an entire band of 2.85-17.15 GHz (143% bandwidth). To validate the method, a 90° phase shifter is designed and simulated.

Lung tumor detection using Contrast Enhanced (CE) Computed Tomography (CT) images plays a key role in computer aided diagnosis and medical practice. Detection of a lung tumor and accurate segmentation is a very challenging task. One major task is to perform classification between a normal (healthy) lung tissue and abnormal (tumor) tissue. However this distribution of data is nonlinear and training a classifier on this kind of data is a difficult process. Limitation of existing approaches is that they assign equal importance to each input feature; this weight assessment is not true for all problems. In this paper we propose a novel method for assigning optimal weights for the calculated features. This proposed technique is tested on CE CT Lung images. Simulation results and analysis showed that our proposed system has shown better classification accuracy than the conventional SVM.

In this work a new reaching law (RL) is proposed that uses inverse hyperbolic function (IHF) instead of the Signum function for switching. The characteristic of this reaching law is that its switching gain is variable, during the reaching phase, which is governed by the parameters of IHF. Its gain decreases with the convergence of system states towards the sliding surface. The variable gain results in: (a) the considerable reduction of the phenomenon of chattering at the control inputs and (b) the decrease of the reaching phase of the sliding mode control (SMC).

The paper presents an InAlAs/InGaAs Hetero-junction Bi-polar transistor structure. The structure formation and performance analysis has been carried out using SILVACO software. Parametric analysis is carried out and results are presented in correspondence with the theory. Doping profile of proposed HBT is optimized to achieve appropriate current gain and maintain possibly low resistance in the base region to avoid recombination. Emitter area of 5×5 μm2 is used to achieve low off set voltage and high gain of 62dB while low doping enabled the device to operate effectively at high frequencies that is up-till 80GHz. Energy band diagram and effects of different layers are discussed showing efficient workability of the proposed structure.

This paper presents a new scheme for the range estimation of an unknown radar emitter. With the proposed algorithm, range of unknown radar emitter can be determined by amplitude comparison of closely spaced time samples. A mathematical model of this ranging method is discussed in detail and supported by computer simulations. For various scenarios, the standard deviation in range estimate has been estimated. For normal incidence, the simulation results indicate that standard deviation in range estimate is only 76m for a 20Km range considering 10dB SNR and observer position error of ±1m. The comparison of proposed method with traditional triangulation method has also been presented. The comparison indicates that for a single platform configuration, the proposed scheme provides more accurate range estimation in a short span of time. Therefore, making it a suitable choice for applications where fast update is required.
