All jobs that are carried out by humans contain either mental and/or physical stresses. Therefore, quantifying these stresses to certain levels is an essential task to ensure not reaching the breakdown state. This state can lead to failure in maintaining the correct outcome of the job. All research work which are focused on studying the effect of mental stress on humans, require the use of mental stressor that is able to correctly quantify the stress level without adding any extra loads on human. The most common mental stressor that was heavily used in research, according to literature, is the Stroop color stressor. Therefore, some guidelines are required that will be helpful in designing such stressor. Moreover, the proposed guidelines can be applied to the Stroop color test which are believed to restrict the mental stress level to the matching task only with no extra stress load. MATLABO was used as the programming platform that was used to implement a graphical user interface (GUI) for the Stroop color stressor. The proposed guidelines examine the effect of changing the buttons’ sizes and locations in the stressor GUI to detect their influence on the applied mental stress. The validity of the guidelines were verified using the one-way ANOVA test. The proposed guidelines showed that the sizes and locations of the buttons, which are used by the user to respond to the visual matching tasks have very high impact on the applied mental stress level. Therefore, designing the Stroop color stressor GUI with buttons having the same buttons’ sizes and locations apart from the center of the displayed image will correctly apply quantified mental stress levels. Changing the Stroop color stressor’s buttons sizes and locations were found to have some extra mental stress on the human under test. Some guidelines for designing any Stroop color-based mental stressor are proposed based on the results of this study. It is believed that applying such guidelines will ensure diminishing any measurement errors due to the unequal sizes and locations of the stressor’s buttons.

The actuation system plays a significant role in any aerospace system design such as missiles, aircraft, UAVs, and spy-fly. The most commonly used actuation systems for missile applications are electro-mechanical, pneumatic, and hydraulic actuators. The main drawback of pneumatic and hydraulic actuators is that they may suffer from fluids leaks which leads to less reliability. So, in this paper, an electro-mechanical actuator aero fin control (EMA-AFC) is adopted for higher precision control positioning, simplicity, and high durability. The proposed (EMA-AFC) is designed based on missile dynamics constraints and the mechanical design and 3-D simulation are carried out and simulated using solid works software. As the actuation system nonlinearities can negatively affect the whole system performance in this work, a nonlinear actuation system model is presented and the related nonlinear parameters are identified and evaluated through a series of experiments. Also, an optimal PID control synthesis is developed using a genetic algorithm for improving system stability parameters. The proposed controller is implemented using FPGA (system generator) and is accomplished on Xilinx Spartan 3 AN FPGA board. A processor in the loop simulation (PIL) is carried out for evaluating the performance of the actuation system of four rudders, using random input signals to simulate roll, pitch, and yaw angles from autopilot after applying a mapping to deflection angles of the four rudders. The simulation results present high efficiency and robustness for different input signals with rapid amplitude and frequency changes for high dynamics systems.

This paper presents a new design and implementation of a dual-channel intermediate frequency (IF) receiver for Secondary Surveillance Radar (SSR) System. The proposed IF receiver achieves the requirements of better sensitivity, wide dynamic range and low noise figure. The proposed IF receiver solves the big Problem in all IF receivers which named by the cross-talk between the dual-channel of mono-pulse receiver. The paper describes the issues and tradeoffs in the design and monolithic implementation of the recently mono-pulse IF receivers and proposes circuit techniques that can alleviate the drawbacks of this architecture. The investigation of how certain components error margin may affect the accuracy of a mono-pulse IF receiver. The IF receiver measures the angle of arrival of the incident signal by comparing sum and difference signals created in the receiver. The components of interest are low noise amplifiers, phase shifters and logarithmic amplifiers, where both can give individual and different errors depending on the antenna steering angle. A model of the receiver was made as close as possible for an ideal case using the ADS Software. The a dual-channel IF mono-pulse receiver for detection of multiple replies from targets is designed and implemented using the assembled prototype. The simulation, implementation and laboratory verification results for different test input are observed and analyzed for performance improvements mainly in secondary radar application such as detection of multiple replies from the target and decoding of data.

Image matching is one of the most famous applications in computer vision and robotics. It is used for real time target detection and recognition systems. An ideal image matching technique should be robust to different image transformations such as scaling, illumination, noise and rotation. Different feature descriptors and detectors such as SIFT, SURF, BRISK, AKAZE and ORB have been introduced previously. However, each one of them has its own weak points in their matching performance. In this paper, we firstly perform a comprehensive comparison between such image matching techniques and their performance on different datasets of images. Then, we introduce a hybrid technique that combine between different feature descriptors. The experimental results showed that the proposed hybrid technique has improved the robustness of the image matching process. The conducted comparative analysis based on the execution time, number of keypoints detected and number of inliers (good matches after outliers’ rejection) has revealed the power of combined ORB and BRISK feature descriptors, outperforming the other feature descriptors combinations in enhancing the accuracy of matching and detection tasks.

ARQ (Automatic-Repeat-Request) protocols are used in communication applications to ensure reliable delivery of packetized data in the correct sequence. The major used protocols are: Stop and Wait (SW), Go Back N, and Selective Repeat (SR). In this paper we continue studying and measuring the performance of Automatic Repeat Request (ARQ) protocols. ARQ protocols are used at Data Link Control (DLC) sub layer of Data Link Layer (DLL) to achieve error control and provide smooth and reliable transmission between nodes. They use acknowledgements and timeouts to satisfy reliable data transmission over noisy channels. This paper analyses the service time distributions of Selective Repeat ARQ protocol used in transmission of short messages over noisy channels. The system is operated according to SW protocol in the message level, while packets in each message are transmitted according to $mathrm{S}mathrm{R}_{infty}$ ARQ protocols. The system is modeled as a stochastic process where it includes senders and receivers. We consider applying $mathrm{S}mathrm{R}_{infty}$ with connection-oriented transmission. The Probability Generating Function of service time is calculated and first and second moments of the service time are derived.

A novel jamming technique is proposed to generate effective jamming against synthetic aperture radar (SAR) to protect multiple displaced targets given availability of limited jamming power, which is a typical situation. A smart noise jamming technique is proposed using digital radio frequency memory (DRFM). It allows the jammer to achieve effective jamming in such situation by condensing its power on specific sensitive areas on the SAR image to cover certain targets. This technique utilizes, in its core, the convolution noise jamming which has proven to allow high level of controllability. A closed form of the multichannel convolution noise jamming (MC-CNJ) governs the effect on the SAR receiver is introduced. Parameters introduced to control each jamming channel independently, to produce noise patches with determined size and position in range and azimuth dimensions. Through the proposed technique, a high intensity noise patches are formed to skin limited areas instead off scattering the jamming power over the whole SAR image. The results of simulation using the Matlab clarify the performance of the new jamming technique effect on a real SAR image.

Different inertial sensor calibration techniques have been proposed to consider the sources of measurement error from inertial sensors. There has been a significant amount of literature which studies the stochastic errors calibration of such devices. The recent results of [1] have proved that among all possible methods the (Generalized Method of Wavelet Moments) (GMWM) presents various optimality and is computationally reliable. However, the GMWM estimators depend on weight matrix which considerably impact the quality of the estimated stochastic error models. In addition, such models are made of different components (typically high-frequency and low-frequency components) whose impacts on navigation vary depending on the context. For example, the high-frequency component of the error model may be more important when considering low-cost IMUs mounted on small size drones used for short-term missions. On the other hand, the situation may be reversed when considering navigational grade IMUs used, often autonomously, for long-term missions. With these differences, one may wish to select a GMWM estimator whose weight matrix has been tailored to estimate more reliably the elements of an error model believed to have the greatest impacts on navigation accuracy. In this article, we provide a formal answer to this question by proposing an optimally weighted GMWM estimator. Our results show that the proposed estimator is optimal for all parameters of the sensor error model we wish to estimate with the smallest possible uncertainty of the estimation. Therefore, regardless of the application, and independently of the context, the same optimally weighted estimator can be employed.

For example, the high-frequency component of the error model may be more important when considering low-cost IMUs mounted on small size drones used for short-term missions. On the other hand, the situation may be reversed when considering navigational grade IMUs used, often autonomously, for long-term missions. With these differences, one may wish to select a GMWM estimator whose weight matrix has been tailored to estimate more reliably the elements of an error model believed to have the greatest impacts on navigation accuracy. In this article, we provide a formal answer to this question by proposing an optimally weighted GMWM estimator. Our results show that the proposed estimator is optimal for all parameters of the sensor error model we wish to estimate with the smallest possible uncertainty of the estimation. Therefore, regardless of the application, and independently of the context, the same optimally weighted estimator can be employed.","PeriodicalId":346636,"journal":{"name":"2020 12th International Conference on Electrical Engineering (ICEENG)","volume":"57 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114257352","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Colon cancer is the second and third of the highest risk cancers for both men and women, respectively. There is no definite approach to inhibit the disease, but there are some methods that can be followed for decreasing it. This includes certain types of diets, medicines like aspirin or pain killers and educating people about its accompanying symptoms. There are several methods for colorectal cancer screening for detection and investigation of this disease such as Physical exam, patient’s history, digital rectal exam, barium enema, sigmoidoscopy, virtual colonoscopy, colonoscopy and capsule-like devices are several methods for colorectal cancer screening to detect and investigate this disease.ANSYS FEA software have been utilized for designing and modelling the electromagnetic actuators. Different actuators have been investigated for the colonoscope guidance through difficult regions of the colon, with the objective of optimizing safe penetration and reducing the risk of perforation.The present work produced a framework for novel electromagnetic actuators that can be used for colonoscope actuation and navigation purposes, which can produce a uniformly distributed magnetic field capable of generating high magnetic forces.
