Several accurate watermarking methods for image watermarking have being suggested and implemented to secure various forms of digital data, images and videos however, very few algorithms are proposed for audio watermarking. This is also because human audio system has dynamic range which is wider in comparison with human vision system. In this paper, a new audio watermarking algorithm for voice message encryption based on Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) is introduced. The audio signal is divided into frames and each frame is then decomposed adaptively, by EMD, into intrinsic oscillatory components called Intrinsic Mode Functions (IMFs). The watermark, which is the secret message that is to be sent, along with the synchronization codes are embedded into the extrema of the last IMF, a low frequency mode stable under different attacks and preserving the perceptual quality of the host signal. Based on exhaustive simulations, we show the robustness of the hidden watermark for audio compression, false decryption, re-quantization, resampling. The comparison analysis shows that our method has better performance than other steganography schemes recently reported.

This paper deals with the channel loss models of ultra-wideband radio wave propagation from 2 to 10 GHz application. IEEE 802.15.4a and Okumura channel loss reference models have been introduced and the estimation methods of channel transmission loss have been discussed with the environments of 2 to 10 GHz short range application. The channel transmission loss was measured in ZigBee circuit with 2 kinds of power, using IEEE 802.15.4a and Okumura channel model to estimate the theoretical channel loss, the theoretical value and the actual measured value were compared and analyzed. The analysis shows that the error between the calculated value and the actual measured value of the IEEE 802.15.4a reference model is small in the ultra-wideband ZigBee channel environment, and the error of the Okumura channel loss model is large. The results show that in the environments of 2 to 10 GHz short range application, IEEE 802.15.4a channel loss model is a high precision reference model for the ultra-wideband channel loss calculation.
Robust audio watermarking based on transform domain and SVD with compressive ...TELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
The growth of the internet and digital data has resulted forgery, modification and sharing of digital data without property rights. Audio watermarking is one of a solution to protect the copyright of an audio from copyright infringement. This paper proposes an audio watermarking method which is robust against attacks and high capacity. First, a synchronization bit is added to the audio host. After the audio host is decomposed by Lifting Wavelet Transform (LWT), then choose a subband from the output of LWT to be transformed by discrete cosine transform (DCT). Next, the matrix of the signal from DCT is selected for the singular value decomposition (SVD) process, so that is obtained U, S and V matrix. S matrix is embedded with the watermark. Before the embedding process, the watermark image is compressed by Compressive Sampling. The results show that the proposed watermarking system is highly robust against a kind attack of LPF, resampling, and linear speed change which is proven by its BER is zero.
Performance Analysis of Noise Uncertainty in Energy Detection Spectrum Sensin...Onyebuchi nosiri
Abstract—The Performance of Energy Detection (ED) spectrum sensing technique depends on threshold selected for deciding the presence or absence of Primary User. In practice, noise density is uncertain and can affect the performance of ED in that sometimes presence of signals is confused for their absence (noise) and vice versa. The traditional energy detection algorithm was based on fixed threshold and has been observed to be inefficient under noise uncertainty. The technique requires optimizing the threshold to be more flexible to check the noise uncertainty effects. The paper therefore proposed an algorithm relative to a unique environment which in effect considered the dynamism relatively and dependent on the environment. The results obtained demonstrated significant improvement compared to the traditional energy detection system

Architecture of direct_digital_synthesizanjunarayanan
A frequency synthesizer is an electronic device which generates a range of frequency mostly sine wave from a fixed clock provided. These frequency synthesizers are commonly found in radio receivers, mobile telephones radio telephones, wacky talkies, as local oscillators, satellite receivers, GPS system. Direct digital synthesizer is a frequency synthesizer which digitally creates arbitrary wave forms of different frequencies from the fixed frequency provided as clock input.DDS generates digital wave forms and these digital waveforms are converted to analog signals by the digital to analog converter connected at the output of DDS. The DDS designed here is a ROM based DDS. DDS has many advantages over PLL and other similar approaches such as fast settling time, sub-Hertz frequency resolution, continuous phase switching response and low phase noise. This system has many applications such as the confidential message transfer, speedy frequency switching.

ANALYTICAL PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF AN LDPC CODED INDOOR OPTICAL WIRELESS CO...optljjournal
Recently, indoor Optical Wireless (OW) connectivity has gained significant attention as a possible
alternative to tackle the problem of bottleneck access and as an improvement to ever more conventional RF
/ microwave connections. In indoor OW communication, OOK encoding is more widely used owing to its
effective usage of bandwidth and robustness to timing errors, given the fact that the power consumption is
less than PPM. The modulation format in this research work is Q-array PPM over lasers, with modulation
of power. The effects of the analysis are analyzed numerically in view of the amount of bit error (BER). It is
shown that, because of coding for 4PPM framework, the bit error performance is increased. For instance,
an LDPC-coded device with stable foundation radiation provides a important coding improvement of 5 to 6
dB over uncoded device at BER in the order of 10-8 and 10-12 respectively.

Survey on Different Methods of Digital Audio WatermarkingIJERA Editor
The significant progress of the technology gives the full access to the digital data for retransmitting and reproduction with comfort. Since the benefits of such progress is easily available, they equally immune to some illegal manipulation of data. So there is necessity arises for the protection of digital data from unauthorized users. The digital audio watermarking technique is new technology among different watermarking techniques which provides successful solutions to problems occurred from some digital attacks. Basically watermarking is the scheme in which binary information is embedded into the original signal. The major concern of the audio watermarking scheme is to provide the proof of ownership to the owner and to provide protection for embedded data. This paper provides concise analysis of different existing audio water.
A Robust Audio Watermarking in Cepstrum Domain Composed of Sample's Relation ...ijma
Watermark bits embedded in audio signals considering the sample’s relative state in a frame may
strengthen the attack-invariant features of audio watermarking algorithm. In this work, we propose to
embed watermarks in an audio signal considering the relation between the mean values of consecutive
groups of samples which shows robustness by overcoming common watermarking challenges. Here, we
divide the host audio signal into equal-sized non-overlapping frames which in turn is split into four equalsized non-overlapping sub-frames. After, transforming these sub-frames in cepstrum domain we finally use
the relation between the differences of first two sub-frames and last two sub-frames to embed watermarks.
Depending on the watermark bit (either 0 or 1) to be embed, our embedding technique either interchange
or update the differences between these groups of samples by distorting the sample values in sub-frames
selectively. Thus, watermarks are embedded by making a little or no distortion of the sub-frames which
helps our scheme to be imperceptible in nature. Moreover, use of such embedding technique lead our
watermarking scheme to a computationally less complex extraction method. Simulation results also justify
our claim of the proposed scheme to be both robust and imperceptible.

ADAPTIVE WATERMARKING TECHNIQUE FOR SPEECH SIGNAL AUTHENTICATION ijcsit
Biometrics data recently has become a major role in determining the identity of the person. With such
importance for the use of biometrics data, there are many attacks that threaten the security and integrity of
biometrics data itself. Therefore, it becomes necessary to protect the originality of biometrics data against
manipulation and fraud. This paper presents an authentication technique to achieve the authenticity of
speech signals based on adaptive watermarking technique. The basic idea is depends on extracting the
speech features from the speech signal initially and then using these features as a watermark. The
watermark information embeds into the same speech signal. The short time energy technique is used to
identifying the suitable positions for embedding the watermark in order to avoid the regions that used in
the speech recognition system. After exclusion the important areas that used in speech recognition the
Genetic Algorithm (GA) is used to generate random locations to hide the watermark information in an
intelligent manner. The experimental results have achieved high efficiency in establishing the authenticity
of speech signal and the process of embedding
Hiding voice data in center density of speech spectrum for secure transmissioneSAT Journals
Abstract
Speech data is becoming an effective and indispensable way for fast information transmission but associated with it are number of
unprecedented threats. The idea of this paper is to present a robust speech watermarking method to realize secure voice data
transmission. In this method carrier is transformed into frequency domain. Pre-processed normalized covert voice data
undergoes exponential transformation which is then substituted in center density of high frequency, high energy subband of
carrier. High frequency components are chosen for embedding watermark for two reasons. First, during transmission carrier
might get contaminated with noise and filteration generally suppress low frequency components so embedding in high frequency
component will keep watermark intact. Second reason is human ears are less sensitive to high frequencies so slight change in
amplitude of high frequency components is imperceptible.. Technique uses frequency masking, invisible, and blind approach also.
By applying reverse approach sensitive message can be extracted from the watermarked carrier. For embedding and retrieving
watermark secret key have been used. Experimental results have shown that proposed method does not change the size of the
cover signal even after embedding, does not degrade the quality of carrier and exhibit vigorous voice data hiding performance.
Proposed work can be used in those applications where maintaining integrity and secrecy about the information against
intentional or unintentional access is given utmost importance.

In today's world we know the importance of encryption and privacy and with data being the most prized possession it is more important than ever to protect that data. Therefore for our project we are aiming at using this as our principal objective for protecting signal and audio during transmission.
To do this will use digital watermarking and using a digital image/unique code superimposing the signal and then transposing that image as a watermark on the audio signal.
Watermarking is a technique used to label digital media by hiding copyright or other information into the underlying data. The aim is to create a watermark that must be imperceptible or undetectable by the user and should be robust to attacks and other types of distortion. In our method, the watermark is kept as a digital image or if contingency arises a masked signal copy.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!

It is now-a-days very important for the people to send or receive articles like imported furniture, electronic items, gifts, business goods and the like. People depend vastly on different transport systems which mostly use the manual way of receiving and delivering the articles. There is no way to track the articles till they are received and there is no way to let the customer know what happened in transit, once he booked some articles. In such a situation, we need a system which completely computerizes the cargo activities including time to time tracking of the articles sent. This need is fulfilled by Courier Management System software which is online software for the cargo management people that enables them to receive the goods from a source and send them to a required destination and track their status from time to time.
