ARRAY FACTOR OPTIMIZATION OF AN ACTIVE PLANAR PHASED ARRAY USING EVOLUTIONARY...jantjournal
Evolutionary algorithms (EAs) have the potential to handle complex, multi-dimensional optimization problems in the field of phased array. Out of different EAs, particle swarm optimization (PSO) is a popular choice. In a phased array, antenna element failure is a common phenomenon and this leads to degradation
of the array factor (AF) pattern, primarily in terms of increased side lobe levels (SLLs), displacement of nulls and reduction in the null depths. The recovery of a degraded pattern using a cost and time-effective approach is on demand. In this context, an attempt made to obtain an optimized AF pattern after fault in a
49 elements quasi-circular aperture equilateral triangular grid active planar phased array using PSO. In the paper, multiple cases on recovery are discussed having a maximum 20% element failure. Each recovery is also further evaluated by different statistical analyses. A dedicated software tool was developed to carry out the work presented in this paper.
Damage detection in cfrp plates by means of numerical modeling of lamb waves ...eSAT Journals
Abstract
The paper presents an application of modeling acoustic waves propagation in a carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) plates for
damage detection. This task is a part of non-destructive testing (NDT) methods which are very important in many industry
branches. Propagation of Lamb waves is modeled using three-dimensional finite element method by means of commercial
software. In the paper three different cases of plate structures with and without flaws are considered to present review of selected
methods for the detection of defects in time and frequency domain. These are comparisons of: A-scans, B-scans, dispersion
curves, spectrograms, scalograms and energy plots. Developed numerical model first has been validated by means of analytical
solution for isotropic plate.

Modeling Beam forming in Circular Antenna Array with Directional EmittersIJRESJOURNAL
ABSTRACT: The article discusses the functioning of the radio direction-finding and beamforming methods in the system of circular antenna arrays formed from the designed radiators, directional factor which is not equal to 1. Evaluation of forming of spatial pattern of cylindrical antenna array using phased method is fulfilled. DolphChebyshev window is used to reduce the side lobe level.
ABSTRACT: In this paper, we proposed a new identification algorithm based on Kolmogorov–Zurbenko Periodogram (KZP) to separate motions in spatial motion image data. The concept of directional periodogram is utilized to sample the wave field and collect information of motion scales and directions. KZ Periodogram enables us detecting precise dominate frequency information of spatial waves covered by highly background noises. The computation of directional periodogram filters out most of the noise effects, and the procedure is robust for missing and fraud spikes caused by noise and measurement errors. This design is critical for the closure-based clustering method to find cluster structures of potential parameter solutions in the parameter space. An example based on simulation data is given to demonstrate the four steps in the procedure of this method. Related functions are implemented in our recent published R package {kzfs}.

SAUSAGE MINKOWSKI SQUARE PATCH ANTENNA FOR GPS APPLICATIONP singh
Square Patch Antennas find wide range in practical modern communication system. The novel idea employed in this paper is to use Sausage Minkowski of square patch antenna as a candidate for using in Global Positioning System (GPS) applications. The antenna has been designed to operate at frequency resonance of 1.575 GHz which is the upper GPS band (L1). The proposed antenna is designed and simulated using CST Studio suite version-2014. The proposed antenna has been simulated on substrate TMM4 of relative permittivity equals to 4.5 and thickness of 1.6 mm. The results are reported in terms of reflection coefficient, VSWR, directivity and gain. According to our results, the antenna at 2nd iteration has gain 4.61dB, VSWR is 1.2 and reduce in area of patch about 42.8% less than 0 iteration. The antenna is more efficient by applying fractal geometry.
About the Phasor Pathways in Analogical Amplitude ModulationsIJRES Journal
The Phasor diagrams have long been used in Physics and Engineering. In telecommunications,
this is particularly useful to clarify how the modulations work. This paper addresses rotating phasor pathways
derived from different standard Amplitude Modulation Systems (e.g. A3E, H3E, J3E, C3F). A cornucopia of
algebraic curves is then derived assuming a single tone or a double tone modulation signal. The ratio of the
frequency of the tone modulator (fm) and carrier frequency (fc) is considered in two distinct cases, namely:
fm/fc<1 and fm/fc1. The geometric figures are some sort of Lissajours figures. Different shapes appear looking
like epicycloids (including cardioids), rhodonea curves, Lemniscates, folium of Descartes or Lamé curves. The
role played by the modulation index is elucidated in each case.
Reduction of Azimuth Uncertainties in SAR Images Using Selective RestorationIJTET Journal
Abstract— A framework is proposed for reduction of azimuth uncertainty space borne strip map synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images. In this paper, the azimuth uncertainty in SAR images is identified by using a local average SAR image, system parameter, and a distinct metric derived from azimuth antenna pattern. The distinct metric helps isolate targets lying at locations of uncertainty. The method for restoration of uncertainty regions is selected on the basis of the size of uncertainty regions. A compressive imaging technique is engaged to bring back isolated ambiguity regions (smaller regions of interrelated pixels), clustered regions (relatively bigger regions of interrelated pixels) are filled by using exemplar-based in-painting. The recreation results on a real Terra SAR-X data set established that the proposed method can effectively remove azimuth uncertainties and enhance SAR image quality.
Projected Barzilai-Borwein Methods Applied to Distributed Compressive Spectru...Polytechnique Montreal
Cognitive radio allows unlicensed (cognitive) users to use licensed frequency bands by exploiting spectrum sensing techniques to detect whether or not the licensed (primary) users are present. In this paper, we present a compressed sensing applied to spectrum-occupancy detection in wide-band applications. The collected analog signals from each cognitive radio (CR) receiver at a fusion center are transformed to discrete-time signals by using analog-to-information converter (AIC) and then employed to calculate the autocorrelation. For signal reconstruction, we exploit a novel approach to solve the optimization problem consisting of minimizing both a quadratic (l2) error term and an l1-regularization term. In specific, we propose the Basic gradient projection (GP) and projected Barzilai-Borwein (PBB) algorithm to offer a better performance in terms of the mean squared error of the power spectrum density estimate and the detection probability of licensed signal occupancy.

Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.

Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.

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!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

Linear Geometrical Model
Geometrical Optics
• high frequency approximation, diffraction neglected
• asymptotic solution of field integrals (Maxwell equations)
• approximation of the field by rays (= locally plane waves)
• ray tracing → asymptotically accure time-invariant channel impulse response
• assume time-harmonic plane-wave sum approximation of radiating field

Conclusions
• spatial channel modeling based on wave-fields was presented as an attempt
to bring EM theory into communication signal processing
• it was demonstrated for the case of linear stochastic model and linear
geometrical model where plane-wave propagation is assumed
• necessary but not sufficient conditions of radio channel linearity are
– far-field, isotropic and homogeneous medium, no diffraction
– but further investigation is still required
• receiving antennas provide us with (some) knowledge on signal distribution
˜Y (t, Ω/λ) = F(Ω/λ)
s [˜y(t, s)]
where F[.] is 3D-Fourier transform
