This paper proposes a simple and novel switchable microwave filter. The proposed filter can easily be switched between high pass and low pass responses. The filter uses a structure which can be easily switched. The high pass filter uses an interdigital structure and the low pass filter uses the hairpins that are mounted on the interdigital structure. The filter is reconfigurable and small in size. The structure is designed on F R4 substrate.

Solar energy is the ultimate source of energy on our planet. All other sources of energy are derivative of it. Lately photovoltaic cells both organic and inorganic have gained a greater commercial ground than ever. Initiatives such as International Solar Alliance have given a boost to solar energy harnessing. Therefore, lots of efforts have been put in making photovoltaic devices more efficient. But harnessing of solar energy primarily depends on availability of quality and quantity of insolation or solar radiation received by an area on ground. several factors such as altitude, terrain, air quality, cloud cover, vegetation of the region etc. collectively determine the net solar radiation received by a particular area which can harnessed by solar cells or solar panels to produce electricity. Therefore, in this paper we have studied the effects of these factors on total solar radiation received by earth and hence proposed the suitable conditions for setting up solar harnessing devices.

Disturbances and uncertainties in the system create a barrier to the healthier performance of the process industries. The large effects can be observed in the fundamental time response characteristics i.e. transient and steady state characteristics of the system. Hence, the need of robust controller arises, application of which makes system ineffective to the invasion of uncertainties in the process territory. In this paper a first order system with delay is considered and SOPDT and TOPDT models are derived from FOPDT process model using Skogestad's half rule. PID controller is designed for all the three process models using numerous tuning methods and system set point tracking is analyzed. Further robustness subject is studied for all the designed controllers.

In this research work the variation in extinction cross-section of rain drops with temperature is analyzed. Rain degrades signals at microwave and millimeter wave frequencies. The attenuation value at these frequencies depends upon the extinction cross-section of the rain drops. In the present work variation in extinction cross-section with temperature has been estimated which will be helpful in studying the temporal and spatial distribution of rain attenuation in future work. The present analysis is done at 30 GHz.

The next generation communication system demands for high data rate transfer leading towards exploring a higher level of frequency spectrum. In view of this demand, design of substrate integrated waveguide filters has been presented here in conjunction with metamaterial technology to increase the performance. A metamaterial based substrate integrated waveguide filter operating in the K band (18 – 26.5 GHz) has been demonstrated in this paper with the insertion loss of −0.57 dB in passband and provides a rejection band of 4.1 GHz.

Spatial orientation (SOT) is one of the spatial skill which is required in motor imagery and navigation. A lot of researches have shown underlying neural dynamics during SOT as an effect of spatial transformation strategy, but the consistent findings related to flow of information between designated brain areas are not present. The purpose of the study is to identify flux of information between pairs of channel to identify active hubs during the course of task. The directed transfer function (DTF) method is used to detect alterations in the functional coupling of EEG rhythms (0.5–30 Hz) in different brain cortical areas during virtual reality based perspective taking test. Results confirmed that there were common regions for motor imagery and SOT. It has also shed light on the active role of parietal and occipital lobe in SOT. This study proffers DTF as a useful technique for identifying hubs and flux of information in neuroscience.

A need of an electrical energy is increasing worldwide very rapidly for the all kind of electronic applications. In fact, in the era of industrialization and globalization its demand has increased exponentially. Fossil fuels, which are the prime elements of electrical energy generation, are on the verge of being exhausted. Also, these fuels are the source of severe environmental pollution. Therefore, it is utmost necessary to harness energy from non-conventional sources or call them the clean energy resources. Recently, there have been great advancements in the organic semiconductor technology that includes organic solar cells /organic photovoltaic cells (OPVs) as an alternative to the conventional energy sources. Due to their low-cost fabrication, simple working principle, synthetic variability, and a capability to incorporate advanced materials, the OPVs have gained a huge attention of the researchers.

The term Spectrum sensing is a progressive topic of research for the past few years, as it is important in cognitive radio system. In cognitive radio, spectrum sensing helps an unlicensed user for detecting unused bands and to utilize these bands for unlicensed communication. In this paper, the presentation of the different spectrum sensing schemes i.e. classical energy detection, improved energy detection and statistical covariance are compared. Statistical covariance method is L times more complex than that of energy detection. The analysis shows that statistical covariance method outperforms both classical energy detection and improved energy detection method in terms probability of detection.

this research paper analyzes optimization of different combinational logic circuits (AND gate, OR gate, multiplexer, de-multiplexer) using Pass Transistor Logic Configuration (PTL) and CMOS Logic Configuration. PTL design used in this paper is significant as gate terminal is only denoting input terminal rather than controlling terminal as in previously reported PTL designs. This technique essentially decreases the number of nodes in the circuit as well as its overall size too. Further, a comparison between the performances of both the configurations in terms of number of transistors utilized in the designing of circuit and chip area has also been done with help of 1∶2 de-multiplexers (de-mux). Besides this, paper also signifies more than 50% decrement in interconnect lengths, chip area and number of transistors count while using pass transistor logic configuration for combinational logic circuit (1∶2 de-multiplexer) in comparison to when implemented through CMOS logic configuration.
