In present stereo audio system is a most popular audio system for different purposes. Now a day’s stereo system is commonly used in communication and other purposes. Moreover Normalized Least Mean Square (NLMS) based adaptive filtering is an effective filtering process in case of communication and other applications. However adaptive filtering is an adaptive filter process to cancel out the noise from audio signal successfully. Hence the main objective of this paper is to design a NLMS adaptive filter which cancels out the noise from a noisy wave format stereo audio file. Moreover by varying the order of the adaptive filter (such as 8th, 16th, 32th and 64th), the performance of the NMLS adaptive filtered signal with respect to reference and noisy stereo audio signal are analyzed as well.

In evaluating Analog to Digital Convertors, many parameters are checked for performance and error rate.
One of these parameters is the device Effective Number of Bits. In classical testing of Effective Number of
Bits, testing is based on signal to noise components ratio (SNR), whose coefficients are driven via

Performance Evaluation of Iterative Receiver using 16-QAM and 16-PSK Modulati...IRJET Journal
This document presents a study evaluating the performance of an iterative receiver for Flip-OFDM modulation using 16-QAM and 16-PSK modulation schemes in optical wireless communication (OWC) systems. The proposed iterative receiver is compared to a conventional receiver that directly subtracts the negative signal frame from the positive frame. Simulation results show that the iterative receiver provides significantly lower bit error rates than the conventional receiver for both modulation schemes. Specifically, the improvement in bit error rate is larger at lower signal-to-noise ratios. The study thus demonstrates that the iterative receiver fully exploits the signal structure to improve performance over the conventional approach in Flip-OFDM for OWC.

Augmented reality, the new age technology, has widespread applications in every field imaginable. This technology has proven to be an inflection point in numerous verticals, improving lives and improving performance. In this paper, we explore the various possible applications of Augmented Reality (AR) in the field of Medicine. The objective of using AR in medicine or generally in any field is the fact that, AR helps in motivating the user, making sessions interactive and assist in faster learning. In this paper, we discuss about the applicability of AR in the field of medical diagnosis. Augmented reality technology reinforces remote collaboration, allowing doctors to diagnose patients from a different locality. Additionally, we believe that a much more pronounced effect can be achieved by bringing together the cutting edge technology of AR and the lifesaving field of Medical sciences. AR is a mechanism that could be applied in the learning process too. Similarly, virtual reality could be used in the field where more of practical experience is needed such as driving, sports, neonatal care training.
Image fusion is a sub field of image processing in which more than one images are fused to create an image where all the objects are in focus. The process of image fusion is performed for multi-sensor and multi-focus images of the same scene. Multi-sensor images of the same scene are captured by different sensors whereas multi-focus images are captured by the same sensor. In multi-focus images, the objects in the scene which are closer to the camera are in focus and the farther objects get blurred. Contrary to it, when the farther objects are focused then closer objects get blurred in the image. To achieve an image where all the objects are in focus, the process of images fusion is performed either in spatial domain or in transformed domain. In recent times, the applications of image processing have grown immensely. Usually due to limited depth of field of optical lenses especially with greater focal length, it becomes impossible to obtain an image where all the objects are in focus. Thus, it plays an important role to perform other tasks of image processing such as image segmentation, edge detection, stereo matching and image enhancement. Hence, a novel feature-level multi-focus image fusion technique has been proposed which fuses multi-focus images. Thus, the results of extensive experimentation performed to highlight the efficiency and utility of the proposed technique is presented. The proposed work further explores comparison between fuzzy based image fusion and neuro fuzzy fusion technique along with quality evaluation indices.
Graphs have become the dominant life-form of many tasks as they advance a
structure to represent many tasks and the corresponding relations. A powerful
role of networks/graphs is to bridge local feats that exist in vertices as they
blossom into patterns that help explain how nodal relations and their edges
impacts a complex effect that ripple via a graph. User cluster are formed as a
result of interactions between entities. Many users can hardly categorize their
contact into groups today such as “family”, “friends”, “colleagues” etc. Thus,
the need to analyze such user social graph via implicit clusters, enables the
dynamism in contact management. Study seeks to implement this dynamism
via a comparative study of deep neural network and friend suggest algorithm.
We analyze a user’s implicit social graph and seek to automatically create
custom contact groups using metrics that classify such contacts based on a
user’s affinity to contacts. Experimental results demonstrate the importance
of both the implicit group relationships and the interaction-based affinity in
suggesting friends.

In common, male Gryllidae chirp, on the other hand some female Gryllidae also do as well. Male Gryllidae draw the females by this sound which they produce. Moreover, they caution the other Gryllidae against dangers with this sound. The hearing organs of the Gryllidae are housed in an expansion of their forelegs. Through this, they bias to the produced fluttering sounds. Proposed Gryllidae Optimization Algorithm (GOA) has been tested in standard IEEE 14, 30 bus test systems and simulation results show that the projected algorithms reduced the real power loss considerably.

The performance of two gas sensors (MQ5 and MQ6) were tested for a guided decision. Also, when the temperature of the environment poses a danger, LED (indicator), buzzer and LCD (16x2) display was used to indicate temperature and gas leakage status in degree Celsius and PPM respectively. Attension was given to the response time of the control system, which was ascertained that this system significantly increases the chances and efficiency of eliminating gas leakage related accident.

Notary is an official authorized to make an authentic deed regarding all deeds, agreements and stipulations required by a general rule. Activities carried out at the notary office such as recording client data and file data still use traditional systems that tend to be manual. The problem that occurs is the inefficiency in data processing and providing information to clients. Clients have difficulty getting information related to the progress of documents that are being taken care of at the notary's office. The client must take the time to arrive to the notary's office repeatedly to check the progress of the work of the document file. The purpose of this study is to facilitate clients in obtaining information about the progress of the work in progress, and make it easier for employees to process incoming documents by implementing an administrative system. This system was developed with the waterfall system development method and uses the Multi-Channel Access Technology integrated in the website to simplify the process of delivering information and requesting information from clients and to clients with Telegram and SMS Gateway. Clients will come to the office only when there is a notification from the system via Telegram or SMS notifying that the client must come directly to the notary's office, thus leading to an efficient time and avoiding excessive transportation costs. The overall functional system can function properly based on the results of alpha testing. The results of beta testing conducted by distributing the system feasibility test questionnaire to end users, get a percentage of 96% of users agree the system is feasible to be implemented.

Artificial Neural Networks have proved their efficiency in a large number of research domains. In this paper, we have applied Artificial Neural Networks on Arabic text to prove correct language modeling, text generation, and missing text prediction. In one hand, we have adapted Recurrent Neural Networks architectures to model Arabic language in order to generate correct Arabic sequences. In the other hand, Convolutional Neural Networks have been parameterized, basing on some specific features of Arabic, to predict missing text in Arabic documents. We have demonstrated the power of our adapted models in generating and predicting correct Arabic text comparing to the standard model. The model had been trained and tested on known free Arabic datasets. Results have been promising with sufficient accuracy.
In the present-day communications speech signals get contaminated due to
various sorts of noises that degrade the speech quality and adversely impacts
speech recognition performance. To overcome these issues, a novel approach
for speech enhancement using Modified Wiener filtering is developed and
power spectrum computation is applied for degraded signal to obtain the
noise characteristics from a noisy spectrum. In next phase, MMSE technique
is applied where Gaussian distribution of each signal i.e. original and noisy
signal is analyzed. The Gaussian distribution provides spectrum estimation
and spectral coefficient parameters which can be used for probabilistic model
formulation. Moreover, a-priori-SNR computation is also incorporated for
coefficient updation and noise presence estimation which operates similar to
the conventional VAD. However, conventional VAD scheme is based on the
hard threshold which is not capable to derive satisfactory performance and a
soft-decision based threshold is developed for improving the performance of
speech enhancement. An extensive simulation study is carried out using
MATLAB simulation tool on NOIZEUS speech database and a comparative
study is presented where proposed approach is proved better in comparison
with existing technique.
Previous research work has highlighted that neuro-signals of Alzheimer’s disease patients are least complex and have low synchronization as compared to that of healthy and normal subjects. The changes in EEG signals of Alzheimer’s subjects start at early stage but are not clinically observed and detected. To detect these abnormalities, three synchrony measures and wavelet-based features have been computed and studied on experimental database. After computing these synchrony measures and wavelet features, it is observed that Phase Synchrony and Coherence based features are able to distinguish between Alzheimer’s disease patients and healthy subjects. Support Vector Machine classifier is used for classification giving 94% accuracy on experimental database used. Combining, these synchrony features and other such relevant features can yield a reliable system for diagnosing the Alzheimer’s disease.

The cognitive radio prototype performance is to alleviate the scarcity of spectral resources for wireless communication through intelligent sensing and quick resource allocation techniques. Secondary users (SU’s) actively obtain the spectrum access opportunity by supporting primary users (PU’s) in cognitive radio networks (CRNs). In present generation, spectrum access is endowed through cooperative communication-based link-level frame-based cooperative (LLC) principle. In this SUs independently act as conveyors for PUs to achieve spectrum access opportunities. Unfortunately, this LLC approach cannot fully exploit spectrum access opportunities to enhance the throughput of CRNs and fails to motivate PUs to join the spectrum sharing processes. Therefore, to overcome this con, network level cooperative (NLC) principle was used, where SUs are integrated mutually to collaborate with PUs session by session, instead of frame based cooperation for spectrum access opportunities. NLC approach has justified the challenges facing in LLC approach. In this paper we make a survey of some models that have been proposed to tackle the problem of LLC. We show the relevant aspects of each model, in order to characterize the parameters that we should take in account to achieve a spectrum access opportunity.

Design and Performance Analysis of 1.8 GHz Low Noise Amplifier for Wireless… (A.A. Amin)
657
Transistor is a main factor of any amplifier designing, so a PHEMT transistor (ATF-
34143) has been used here. So from the data sheet of specific PHEMT transistor ATF-34143
the values of S-parameters for biasing point drain source voltage (Vds) is 3V and drain source
current (Ids) is 20 mA [4]. Choose this point because Noise figures (Fmin) is lowest in this point.
So the chosen S-parameters along with other parameters such as noise figure and optimum
reflection coefficients are given below [4].
S11: 0.78∟-115 S21: 6.843∟98 S12: 0.083∟28 S22: 0.28∟-1
Fmin = 0.17 dB Γopt = 0.74∟57 Rn/50 = 0.10
By using equations (1-6) are used to draw noise and gain circles enclose in smith chart given
below to choose the Γs from the gain and noise circle intercept point. First check the stability
check using equation 1 and 2 [5].

Here the stability parameters are K=0.385 and |Δ|=0.353. Where K<1 and |Δ| <1, so it is
potentially unstable. So now draw the stability circles using equations 3, 4, 5 and 6, however
choose a point which is outside of unstable circle. Since point inside the unstable circle region
are unstable which converts this amplifier to an oscillator. Hence any point outside the unstable
circle has been selected. So the calculated center and radius of the source side and load side
unstable circles which are given below accordingly [5-7].
Source side Unstable Circle:
Center, Cs=1.81∟116.62 Radius, Rs=1.174
Load side Unstable Circle:
Center, CL=11.92∟-62.39 Radius, RL=12.291
In this case 16 dB Gain and 0.5 dB noise factor are chosen since it is low noise
amplifier. As this LNA will be used in receiver end so the noise should be low whether the gain
could have reasonable value. So to design the low noise amplifier, the gain and noise circle with
appropriate center and radius should be calculated by equation 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 [5, 6, 8-9].

Consequently for noise circle the center CF (0.5∟57) and radius, RF (0.12) has been calculated
as well. Afterwards by using the smith chart the value of reflection coefficient, (Γs) 0.503 ∟3.30
along with the length and width of the open shunt stub has been calculated for source side, d=
0.171λ and l= 0.365 λ which is showed in Figure 1(a). Subsequently for load side the reflection
coefficient (ΓL) has been calculated by Equation 12 & 13 [5].

So the calculated reflection coefficient (ΓL) is 0.188 ∟167.051 [6]. Moreover the length
and width of the open shunt stub in case of load side from the smith chart are d= 0.13 λ and
l=0.44 λ as well which is showed in Figure 1 (b). For ADS simulation the gain circle and noise
figure circle are analyzed by connecting the s2p file of ATF-34143 with termination port of 50 Ω
[10-11]. Hence it is a low noise amplifier the minimum noise is the main concern rather than
gain. So the interception point of 14 dB gain circle and 0.5 dB noise circle are selected which is
showed in Figure 2. Moreover the measured values of normalized impedances and reflection
coefficients are illustrates in Figure 2.

Moreover for LNA designing purpose the reflection coefficients for source and load
sides are measure as well from the simulation, which is showed in Figure 2 also. All the design
parameters are illustrates in Figure 2 for the gate source voltage of 3 V and the gate source
current of 20 mA for the PHEMT transistor, hence this biasing points provides less noise and
reasonable gain which is showed in Figure 2 [6]. However to design the LNA, line calculation
tool has been used and by exploiting this wavelength (λ=114.852 mm) the open shunt stub
matching network for 50 Ω characteristics impedance has been designed in ADS which is
showed in Figure 3.

Moreover to give the designed amplifier more realistic view a real PHEMT transistor
model (ATF-34143) has been integrated with the model. Moreover to set up the accurate
biasing voltage and current the values of passive biasing resistances (R1= 1.45 KΩ, R2= 2.096
KΩ and R3= 86.95 Ω) are calculated by Kirshoff’s Voltage Law and Kirshoff’s Current Law.
Furthermore the values of drain voltage (VDD =+5 V) and source voltage (Vss -5V) are also

calculated [12]. Moreover frim the simulation the value of gate source voltage (Vgs =-0.66V)
have been measured as well. These resistances and biasing voltages are integrated with the
model of the transistor and set with the stub matching network to make the simulation more
realistic which is showed in Figure 4.

Figure 4 shows the setup of the open stub matching network for result analysis. Here
the real components such as the simulation model of ATF- 34143 along with biasing voltage,
current and calculated biasing resistances are connected as well for result analysis. To evaluate
the performance of the designed amplifier the gain flatness, reflection coefficients, harmonic
balance, two tone testing and 1dB compression point will be analyzed in the result Segment
(Section 3).
3. Results and Analysis
According to the measurement setup of the designed 1.8 GHz low noise amplifier which
is showed in Figure 4 of segment 2, the result analysis and performance evaluation has been
analyzed in this section. As the gain flatness and noise figure is the main concern in case of
LNA, so Figure 5 shows the result of gain flatness and noise figure of the designed LNA for 1.8
GHz wireless receiver.

Figure 5 shows that the gain remains flat at around 16 dB from almost 1.68 GHz to
1.94GHz. However the noise figure is 0.463 dB at same frequency band. In addition the return
loss is below -20 dB at that frequency range however it is around -29 dB at 1.8 GHz frequency.
So afterwards the harmonic balance, two tone testing and 1dB compression points are showed
in Figure 6 (a, b and c).

Figure 6 (a) shows that the powers of different order harmonics are suppressed around
-10 dBm. However the power of main tone is around 12 dBm. Moreover in figure 6 (b) two
tonetesting has been successfully done by 1.8 GHz and 1.9 GHz signal which shows that there
is not much non linearity of the designed low noise amplifier. In addition figure 6 (c) shows that
the 1 dB compression starts for around the input signal power is -6 dBm input and the output
power remains constant at 8.928 dB. So the 1.8 GHz low noise amplifier provides satisfactory
results and performance at each and every perspective of performance analysis. Moreover the
designed amplifier provides satisfactory gain of around 16 dB and noise figure of around 0.5 dB
as well to implement this system with wireless communication receiver to enhance the
performance
4. Conclusion
The main concern of this paper is to design and result analysis of 1.8 GHz low noise
amplifier for wireless receiver application. Hence the open shunt stub matching network has
been designed based on stability circle, gain and noise circle as well. Afterwards a PHEMT
transistor (ATF-34143) has been integrated with proper biasing voltage and current along with
biasing resistances as well. The LNA provides satisfactory gain of 16 dB along with proper gain
flatness. Nevertheless the noise figure is around 0.5 dB as well hence noise is the main concern
in case of receiving end of any wireless communication system. Moreover the harmonic
balance, two tone testing and 1 dB compression point provides acceptable results as well for
wireless receiver application for 1.8 GHz frequency.
