The present paper investigates performance of flexible fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors network model designed in VPItransmissionMaker simulation software. We report on three optical temperature sensors network based on FBG gratings with different central Bragg reflection wavelength values and standard ITU-T G.652 single mode fiber (SMF). We have used amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) source as low-cost incoherent broadband light source and optical spectrum analyzer for interrogation of sensors' signals in our network model. In this paper it is shown, that it is important to evaluate FBG sensors' central Bragg reflection wavelengths and bandwidth of reflected signals, to avoid the spectral overlapping of adjacent sensors, while to be sure that each sensor is working in its assigned wavelength slot. As the spacing between FBG sensors in optical spectrum has an important role on the performance of the whole sensor network, we have investigated minimal spacing intervals for FBG temperature sensors working in temperature range from — 20°C up to +40°C under different network operation scenarios.

In this article, a fuzzy adaptive proportional integral derivative based power system stabilizer (FAPID-PSS) was presented in order to damp interarea oscillations in a single machine infinite bus (SMIB system). Optimal tuning of gains of FAPID-PSS controller is considered as optimization problem. Change in speed is considered as the input and correcting voltage signal is considered as output of the proposed controller. A hybrid firefly-particle swarm optimization (FF-PSO) technique is implemented in order to improve power system stability. The problem of FAPID-PSS controller design is transformed into an optimization problem based on integral squared error. Further FF-PSO based optimization technique has been implemented for tuning of optimal gains of the proposed FAPID-PSS based controller. In order to test the robustness and performance of the proposed controller, it has been tested under various disturbances and operating conditions. Further, a comparison has been made between PSO optimized FAPID controller and FA-PSO optimized FAPID controller in a SMIB system. Effectiveness of the proposed controller was analyzed graphically as well as analytically that the proposed FFPSO tuned FAPID-PSS controller performs better than conventional controllers.

Zero attraction techniques are introduced into the least sum of exponentials algorithm to estimate the sparse systems. The l1-norm and its reweighting form are employed and integrated into the least sum of exponentials algorithm to create desired zero attraction terms. The proposed algorithms are mathematically presented in the context of the adaptive filtering frame. The proposed algorithm is investigated for estimating a sparse system. The obtained results illustrate that the proposed sparse least sum of exponentials algorithms give better estimation performance than the classical least sum of exponentials algorithms when the system is exact sparse.

An investigation of the Visibility Range Distribution (VRD) for Free Space Optical (FSO) applications within South Africa (Durban) is presented in this paper. The behavior of optical signals in the atmospheric channel depends on the magnitude of the visibility which in turn is the most important parameter required to achieve an optimal link performance and optical signal availability at 99%. To obtain the optimal estimation of the observed visibility Probability Distribution Function (PDF), the Triweight Kernel estimator was utilized based on the three years visibility data collected from both the Time and Date Weather Services and South Africa Weather Services (SAWS). The three-parameter Log-Pearson (LP3) and three-parameter Weibull (W3) distributions confirmed their appropriateness in representing the regional visibility data, based on the statistical performance tests. Due to complexities in the computation, the distribution parameters of these two distributions were obtained using the Maximum Likelihood Estimation method. Thus, the nearness of the estimated LP3 and W3 PDFs of the visibility to the observed visibility distribution in Durban, was obtained by applying one of the highest efficiency kernel estimator for non-parametric analysis. As a result, the lowest Integral Square Error (ISE) and Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) values were obtained, and from the investigation, the optimized W3 PDF outperforms the optimized LP3 PDF in terms of the mean ISE and RMSE values for all the weather conditions considered. The mean ISE values of both the LP3 and the W3 distributions are 0.0162 and 0.0059 respectively, and their corresponding mean RMSE values are 0.0514 and 0.0343 respectively. Thus, we obtained the actual coefficients of the LP3 and W3 distributions of the VRD for the city of Durban, which is one of the main focus of this paper. This research has a uniqueness and importance for FSO applications within South Africa and can be extended to regions with similar climatic (sub-tropic) conditions. Also, according to the results, with the best choice of kernel bandwidth this approach for estimating the distribution of visibility which is rarely used for visibility distribution modeling has shown that the kernel estimates yielded a better performance over the optimized PDF approach in terms of the Mean ISE and RMSE evaluations. Finally, the study of the variations and structure of visibility classification is critical and important for FSO link planners and engineers, due to the consequences of the unpredictable nature of visibility on FSO applications.
本文研究了自由空间光学(FSO)在南非德班地区应用的可见距离分布(VRD)。大气信道中光信号的行为取决于能见度的大小，而能见度又是实现最佳链路性能和99%光信号可用性所需的最重要参数。为了获得观测能见度概率分布函数(PDF)的最优估计，基于Time and Date Weather Services和South Africa Weather Services (SAWS)收集的3年能见度数据，利用Triweight Kernel估计器进行估计。基于统计性能检验，三参数Log-Pearson (LP3)和三参数Weibull (W3)分布证实了它们在表示区域能见度数据方面的适用性。由于计算比较复杂，这两种分布的分布参数采用极大似然估计方法得到。因此，通过应用一种效率最高的核估计进行非参数分析，得到了德班能见度估计的LP3和W3 pdf与观测到的能见度分布的接近度。结果表明，优化后的W3 PDF在所有天气条件下的平均ISE和均方根误差(RMSE)值均优于优化后的LP3 PDF。LP3和W3分布的ISE均值分别为0.0162和0.0059，对应的RMSE均值分别为0.0514和0.0343。因此，我们得到了德班市VRD的LP3和W3分布的实际系数，这是本文的主要关注点之一。这项研究对南非境内的无线光通信应用具有独特性和重要性，可以推广到具有类似气候(亚热带)条件的地区。此外，根据结果，在核带宽的最佳选择下，这种用于估计可见性分布的方法(很少用于可见性分布建模)表明，在Mean ISE和RMSE评估方面，核估计比优化的PDF方法产生了更好的性能。最后，由于能见度的不可预测性对FSO应用的影响，能见度分类的变化和结构的研究对于FSO链路规划者和工程师来说是至关重要的。

A wide dual band stop-band filter with two different defected microstrip structures (DMS) is proposed for rejecting unexpected interferences. The two stop bands are implemented by using different types of the DMSs, while the wide band characteristics is realized by the use of two same DMS with different dimensions. The proposed wide dual band stop-band filter is investigated by the HFSS and the simulation results show that the proposed filter can provide two wide stop bands. The center frequencies of the two stop bands can be adjusted by properly choosing the dimensions of the DMSs.

The feasibility of a photonic-assisted analog-to-digital converter based on a frequency comb source operating at 10 GHz is numerically investigated. It is found that the effective number of bits (ENOB) monotonically decreases with the input RF frequencies. Nevertheless, it is found that ENOB of 4 can be achieved at the Nyquist sampling rate of 50 GHz using only 10 WDM channels. The results demonstrate that the system can be simplified by employing a high repetition rate pulsed source without greatly affecting the ADC performance.

This is the first report on investigation of CMOS compatible hybrid metal insulator metal (HMIM) planar plasmonic waveguide based Bragg grating filter. It is formed by making periodic variation in the width of HMIM plasmonic waveguide. HMIM Bragg filters offer very good filtering characteristics with large band gap and near-zero transmission around the central wavelength. A micro cavity is also formed and investigated by introducing some defect in HMIM plasmonic Bragg grating. This kind of study is very useful for several chip scale applications such as filter, resonator, WDM systems etc.

Structural health monitoring (SHM) refers to the implementation of damage detection and identification of engineering structures. The damage which we have described includes changes in the properties of the material or the geometrical properties of the system. Traditionally, common sensors are used in the SHM although significant improvements have been made on damage monitoring techniques by using advanced smart sensors, but connecting line and power supply remains a significant challenge to the practical implementation of these technologies. In the article, we propose a UHF rectangular patch antenna which is wireless and passive comparing with the traditional methods. Through good linear polarization, we can get an ideal gain which can allow a larger measurement distance. As the size of antenna changes, the resonant frequency will transform accordingly. When it is used in the SHM, a great convenience in the field can be obtained.
