Load balancing to extend life of wireless sensor networkGaurang Rathod
Wireless sensor network is energy constrain network. Lifetime of network is defined by life of first certain percentage of dying nodes. Load balancing is a method to make energy consumption of all nodes equal and this way all nodes will die together. By load balancing, lifetime of network does not depend only on life of weak node but depends on life all nodes in network which helpful to increase life of network. In this paper two methods are proposed for load balancing which are also called data aggregation methods. In first method, nodes which are far from the sink consume more energy and load balancing is achieved by increasing the interval of communication based on residual energy of these nodes. In second method, load balancing is achieved by tolerating the quality of data. Nodes which have less energy send data only when data is sufficient deviate from past data. Quality of data is based on deviation control function and this deviation control function is based on residual energy of nodes. Simulation results show proposed methods significantly increases the lifetime of wireless sensor network.
Smart Home Management System Using Wireless Sensor Network (WSN)paperpublications3
Abstract: Nowadays, shortage of electricity is a very serious problem due to insufficient production. The wastage of electricity can be avoided by switching off the electrical appliances when not in use. This can be achieved by using Smart home system which automatically turns off loads when not in use, the system can save energy in homes and offices. The system will automatically switch off based on the presence of people at home. Another major issue is that there might be occurrence of theft when nobody is present at home. The theft can be avoided by using MEMS accelerometer which intimates the user through registered mobile number when there is an unexpected break of windows or door through the GSM modem. The system in addition also has a provision for the user to fix energy consumption reading and when the user consumption exceeds a fixed reading, a message would be sent to the users registered mobile number through the GSM modem. Applications for this system include workstations, open office cubicles, home offices, and home entertainment systems.

Load balancing to extend life of wireless sensor networkGaurang Rathod
Wireless sensor network is energy constrain network. Lifetime of network is defined by life of first certain percentage of dying nodes. Load balancing is a method to make energy consumption of all nodes equal and this way all nodes will die together. By load balancing, lifetime of network does not depend only on life of weak node but depends on life all nodes in network which helpful to increase life of network. In this paper two methods are proposed for load balancing which are also called data aggregation methods. In first method, nodes which are far from the sink consume more energy and load balancing is achieved by increasing the interval of communication based on residual energy of these nodes. In second method, load balancing is achieved by tolerating the quality of data. Nodes which have less energy send data only when data is sufficient deviate from past data. Quality of data is based on deviation control function and this deviation control function is based on residual energy of nodes. Simulation results show proposed methods significantly increases the lifetime of wireless sensor network.
Smart Home Management System Using Wireless Sensor Network (WSN)paperpublications3
Abstract: Nowadays, shortage of electricity is a very serious problem due to insufficient production. The wastage of electricity can be avoided by switching off the electrical appliances when not in use. This can be achieved by using Smart home system which automatically turns off loads when not in use, the system can save energy in homes and offices. The system will automatically switch off based on the presence of people at home. Another major issue is that there might be occurrence of theft when nobody is present at home. The theft can be avoided by using MEMS accelerometer which intimates the user through registered mobile number when there is an unexpected break of windows or door through the GSM modem. The system in addition also has a provision for the user to fix energy consumption reading and when the user consumption exceeds a fixed reading, a message would be sent to the users registered mobile number through the GSM modem. Applications for this system include workstations, open office cubicles, home offices, and home entertainment systems.

Deep learning with filtering for defect characterization in pulsed thermograp...IJECEIAES
Pulsed thermography is widely used for non-destructive testing of various materials. The temperature profile obtained after pulse heating is used to characterize the underlying defects in an object. In this paper, the automation of the process of defect visualization and depth quantification in pulsed thermography through various deep learning algorithms is reported. Stainless steel plate with artificial defects is considered for analysis. The raw temperature data is smoothed using moving average, Savitzky-Golay and quadratic regression filters to reduce noise. Thermal signal reconstruction, the conventional method to eliminate noise, is also used for generating filtered datasets. Defect visualization refers to identifying and locating the defects in an image sample and Mask region convolutional neural network (Mask R-CNN) is considered for not just detecting the defects but also locating them on the image. The located defects are utilized for depth estimation using the following networks-multi-layer perceptron (MLP), long short-term memory (LSTM) and gated recurrent units (GRU). The input to the networks is the temperature contrast characteristics which symbolizes the difference in temperature over defective and non-defective areas measured over 250 time points and output of the networks is the estimated depth. The study shows that LSTM based approach provides the least percentage error of 5.5% and is a very suitable approach for automation of defect characterization in pulsed thermography.

Passive Hybrid MEMS for High-Temperature Telemetric MeasurementsI'am Ajas
A hybrid MEMS sensor is described that uses inductive telemetry for contactless, high-temperature measurements in harsh environments. The passive sensor uses a bent beam structure connected to interdigitated combs to change capacitance with temperature. It communicates wirelessly with a readout unit through coupled inductors. Testing showed the sensor's capacitance and the measured temperatures agreed well with a reference sensor up to 350 degrees C, demonstrating its effectiveness for remote, high-temperature industrial monitoring.
The temperature is the measure of warmth or coldness of an object or substance with reference to some standard value. Temperature is most often measured with a mercury thermometer up to a particular range. But in industrial purpose, product generation requires very high temperatures. For measuring and controlling the temperature, normal thermometers are not sufficient. In such cases, temperatures of materials can be measured and controlled by using LabVIEW and temperature measuring devices. Merging of LabVIEW programming with the temperature interfacing devices provides a flexible platform for creating sophisticated measurement and control systems.
The document describes an electrical power theft detection and wireless meter reading system. The system uses wireless data transmission between digital energy meters and a pole-mounted receiver to detect discrepancies between the power sent on a distribution line and the power consumed by loads on that line, indicating potential theft. It also allows for wireless meter reading to save utility companies time compared to manual readings. If the power measured at the pole exceeds the consumption measured by a load-side meter by more than a set tolerance, factoring in line losses, theft is detected on that line.

Three-Axis Auto Stabilizing Video Camera PlatformEklavya Sharma
Basically auto-stabilizing platform consists of platform which is balanced by movement of three servo motors in opposite direction to the movement of the platform. Arduino Uno process the tilt angles obtained from MPU-6050 and give instruction to the respective servo motors to rotate by certain angle depending on its previous position to balance or control the platform. The intent of the platform design is to maintain the platform at an initially selected angle while the support structure orientation changes. The software was written with logic to convert the digital data from the accelerometer and gyroscope to an acceleration and gyro magnitude vector and then converted
in degrees. The InvenSense MPU-6050 sensor contains a 3axis MEMS accelerometer and a 3axis MEMS gyro in a single chip whose outputs are calibrated properly by using KALMAN FILTER
to give the precise angle. The magnitude of the angle was then compared to a predetermined mathematical function to infer the angle of tilt of the platform. The angle of tilt is then converted
to angle of rotation for the servos to adjust their current position and bring the platform in balanced condition. Testing showed the platform to perform as expected. Although some error on the final angle was expected, the magnitude of the error observed indicated the platform design has a high sensitivity to low tolerance mechanical joints (slop). Overall the platform design was validated based on the positional accuracy of the platform given the low quality components used to create it. In other words, the platform performed greater than the sum of its parts.

Low power architecture of logic gates using adiabatic techniquesnooriasukmaningtyas
The growing significance of portable systems to limit power consumption in ultra-large-scale-integration chips of very high density, has recently led to rapid and inventive progresses in low-power design. The most effective technique is adiabatic logic circuit design in energy-efficient hardware. This paper presents two adiabatic approaches for the design of low power circuits, modified positive feedback adiabatic logic (modified PFAL) and the other is direct current diode based positive feedback adiabatic logic (DC-DB PFAL). Logic gates are the preliminary components in any digital circuit design. By improving the performance of basic gates, one can improvise the whole system performance. In this paper proposed circuit design of the low power architecture of OR/NOR, AND/NAND, and XOR/XNOR gates are presented using the said approaches and their results are analyzed for powerdissipation, delay, power-delay-product and rise time and compared with the other adiabatic techniques along with the conventional complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) designs reported in the literature. It has been found that the designs with DC-DB PFAL technique outperform with the percentage improvement of 65% for NOR gate and 7% for NAND gate and 34% for XNOR gate over the modified PFAL techniques at 10 MHz respectively.
DEEP LEARNING FOR SMART GRID INTRUSION DETECTION: A HYBRID CNN-LSTM-BASED MODELgerogepatton
As digital technology becomes more deeply embedded in power systems, protecting the communication

represents a multi-tiered application layer protocol extensively utilized in Supervisory Control and Data
Acquisition (SCADA)-based smart grids to facilitate real-time data gathering and control functionalities.
Robust Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are necessary for early threat detection and mitigation because
of the interconnection of these networks, which makes them vulnerable to a variety of cyberattacks. To
solve this issue, this paper develops a hybrid Deep Learning (DL) model specifically designed for intrusion

(CNN) and the Long-Short-Term Memory algorithms (LSTM). We employed a recent intrusion detection
dataset (DNP3), which focuses on unauthorized commands and Denial of Service (DoS) cyberattacks, to
train and test our model. The results of our experiments show that our CNN-LSTM method is much better
at finding smart grid intrusions than other deep learning algorithms used for classification. In addition,
our proposed approach improves accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score, achieving a high detection
accuracy rate of 99.50%.

2. INTRODUCTION:
In recent times, due to the continually increasing rate of consumption of electrical energy,
electrical utilities are facing problems of increased risk of failures, blackouts, brownouts and
aging infrastructure. And with this increasing extent of demand the number of electrical
equipment’s are consumed at a very high rate on the daily basis. Hence, with no doubts, we can
say that electrical power equipment’s has formed the most vital constituent in the human
consumables and existence. So, it simply means that, to assure the quality, efficiency and
reliability of the electrical power delivery it is compulsory to do timely preventive maintenance
checks, inspection and testing of the electrical equipment’s. As due to untimely defect detection,
inefficiency and errors either during manufacturing or at the time of inspection of the electrical
equipment’s that are currently in service, more and more number of electrical equipment’s have
been damaged and scrapped.
In view of this companies are adopting new techniques and methods to improve their products
and services. But still the method of testing and inspection are based on the conventional method
of direct contact testing. These preventive maintenance and inspection technique involves the
physical contact with electrical equipment and components which could be dangerous, time
consuming, less efficient, not cost effective and technically prone to errors due to large size of
equipment’s or other inevitable reasons. In addition, the conventional direct-contact preventive
maintenance requires de-energizing of the electrical power equipment’s before the
commencement of testing. So, need of the time is to improve the reliability of electrical power
delivery while ensuring the safety of electrical utilities and factory workers at reduced cost.
Computer aided real-time condition monitoring and defect scrutiny system using automated three
dimensional infrared thermography with automation software's provides a valuable solution for
the timely fault diagnosis. Thermal imaging cameras allows us to make the invisible visible that
will easily detect the incipient faults in the electrical equipment. And the 3D thermography can
scan entire electrical equipment, components, or panels at once without missing any overheating
hazards, no matter how small. Thermal imaging is a non-contact measurement methodology that
gives us much higher accuracy than direct contact measurement as in some instances like testing
the printed circuit boards when the targets are small if we introduce a thermocouple to that target
just by connecting it then it will actually change the thermal characteristics or properties as the
thermocouple in the sense becomes a heat sink and temperature values that we will get will not
be exact or accurate.
For the protection of power system equipment the infrared thermography is extremely beneficial
and cost effective. It is based on the fact that many electrical components heat up before they fail
and all objects that has a temperature above absolute zero (-273.15 degrees Celsius or 0 Kelvin)
emits radiation in the infrared region that are not visible to the human eye The intensity of the
infrared radiation emitted by objects is mainly a function of its temperature; the higher the
temperature, the greater the intensity of the emitted infrared energy. From the thermal images we
3. can convert the heat radiation to the specific temperature values and guide the specified
automation software to do the specified action. It has a great potential for the enhancement in
reliability of operation, improved quality of electrical facilities, reduction in consequential
damage, reduction in routine maintenance checks and improved security of electrical equipment's
at lower operational costs. Three dimensional thermal imaging of electrical equipment’s can
capture the wider thermal view of larger equipment’s and at the same time detecting the
defective parts. This technique can monitor the real-time condition of electrical equipment,
anticipate and detect the possible risk of failures and security breaches and can rapidly respond
like initialize cooling, breaking off the risked equipment or an early warning system with or
without human interventions at a remote monitoring location.
These thermal imaging technology with MATLAB can be calibrated to provide temperature
measurement. Specifically, we can make temperature or radiometric measurements with certain
calibrated instruments. We can look at the targets emitting thermal radiation very intuitively to
perform the analysis. With a calibrated camera the temperature values or the radiance values
from the thermal image of an electrical instruments can be easily extracted. By getting the
thermal image of an electrical instruments one can find out the areas on the image that are
warmer than other.
The MATLAB provides the interfacing of thermal imaging cameras and also allows us to
configure and control the external hardware. And the reconstruction of the 3D model with the
multiple view of thermal imaging cameras can be easily done in the MATLAB using the
computer vision system toolbox. In Matlab, Structure from Motion inside the computer vision
system tool box helps us to estimate the 3D structure of a scene from a set of 2D views.
Matlab provides Camera Calibrator app that reconstructs a 3D scene from a sequence of 2D
views taken with a camera. It automatically matches between points from pairs of views and
manage the data associated with each view such as camera pose and the image points. MATLAB
can extend the capability of the camera using sensor fusion that combines the machine vision
with the temperature measurement and takes the required step. With MATLAB image processing
we can easily extract the temperature values from the 3D thermal models and take the corrective
decision with the interfaced hardware. So, the protection of electrical equipment using 3d
thermography and image processing using MATLAB, thermal imaging camera and automation
software, have wide area of research and can save a huge amount of money and work force.
4. BRIEF LITERATURE SURVEY
INTRODUCTION:
This paper revolves around a thermal imaging technology that enhance the perception and
awareness towards the objects we see around us. Here, we are using this technology for the
protection and defect detections of electrical power equipment. Starting from the origin of
infrared we will go through the development and research on thermography. Then, it is followed
by the real-time 3 dimensional thermography using Matlab and thermal imaging camera. Then
the systematic procedures for the temperature measurement thereby detecting the faults in the
electrical power equipment using 3D thermography. And then taking the corrective action by
guiding the automation software’s according to the temperature signatures of the devices. In
addition, this paper presents the outline of the previous researches related to the project.
THERMOGRAPHY:
Infrared came into existence in the year 1800 when it was discovered by the astronomer Sir
Frederick William Herschel. He keenly observed the Newton’s prism experiment on the basis of
heating effect rather than visual distribution of intensity in the spectrum. He measured the
temperature of the spectrum and found that the dark region beyond the red portion of the
spectrum was hottest and named it thermometrical spectrum. After some years it was named as
infrared ranging from 1 mm down to 750 mm on the thermal spectral band of the
electromagnetic spectrum. Soon after the discovery of the infrared, John Herschel, son of the
discoverer of infrared managed to obtain the thermal image on paper, which he called a
thermograph and it is the basis of our whole study. Based on the infrared thermography, first
conventional infrared camera was made in 1956 [1] – [2]. Since then researches are going on to
find the more and more application of this technology.
Stefan-Boltzmann stated that the total radiation emitted by an object is directly proportional to
the object’s area and emissivity and the fourth power of its absolute temperature that is all
objects that has a temperature above absolute zero (-273.15 degrees Celsius or 0 Kelvin) emits
radiation in the infrared region that are not visible to the human eye [3]. By using this law today
infrared thermography is finding its application in medical diagnosis, surveillance, building
inspection, air leakage detection, electrical switchgear testing etc.
Infrared thermography is a technology that transforms the infrared image into a crisp visible
image, which allows us to read the temperature values of the object without any contact
measurement. Today, with the rapid development of electronic devices, we have thermal
imaging cameras that allows us to acquire the infrared image and the complex algorithm in the
cameras generates a real-time high resolution visible images by assigning a specific color to each
infrared energy level [4] – [5].
5. Since the evolution of thermal imaging technology, the use of thermal imaging cameras is very
reliable and robust for non-contact measurement and inspection of electrical equipment. These
properties makes the thermal imaging cameras a unique and valuable tool for detecting,
monitoring and predicting the anomalies in the field of electrical engineering.
3D THERMOGRAPHY:
The current technique of fault detection and diagnosis of electrical equipment is primarily based
on analyzing the 2D images due to which we get only a small field of view and low spatial
resolution of 2D thermal imaging. In addition, the current practices focuses on the direct
inspection and data analysis of raw 2D thermal images which is quite time consuming and labor-
intensive. Consequently, capturing and analyzing 2D thermal performance of building requires
large amount the thermal visual data and then processing the unordered and not geo-tagged
thermal images is difficult. To overcome these challenges real time 3D modelling of the
electrical equipment will give us a larger field of view and much enhanced spatial vision. Using
multiple thermal cameras we can easily generate a 3D model of any electrical equipment. The
efforts of this paper is on improving the quality and field of visual sensing by generating the 3D
thermal models by multiple thermal 2D views in Matlab and analyzing the 3D models to take the
corrective actions for the protection of electrical power equipment.
Over the past few years, several researches have been done focusing on the 3D thermography to
overcome the challenges in 2D thermal imaging technique. The Field Intelligence Laboratory at
MIT (Essess. Inc 2014) made thermal imaging very automated on a large scale. They have
mounted a thermal camera on a car that captures thermal scans of buildings to detect the energy
leaks escaping form building. In the medical applications of thermal imaging, combined real-
time 3D thermal imaging for the medical application (S. T. Smith, 2002) integrated thermal
camera into a 3D photogrammetry scanner to generate 3D thermal signatures. 3D thermography
imaging standardization technique allows quantitative data analysis for the sensitive and reliable
inflammation diagnosis (Xiangyang Ju et al.). With ordinary hand held thermal camera AR
visualization of the thermal 3D model can be made in order to monitor the spatial temperature
distribution (Kazuki Matsumoto et al., 2015). And Matlab provides methods to reconstruct a real
3D scene even with two static 2D images with an un-calibrated camera (Ted Shultz et al., 2003).
The algorithm displays the two images and the user matches corresponding points in both the
images. Then the reconstructed scene with depth perception obtained shows the different views
of the scene. In order to build the 3D models from the captured images the camera has to be
calibrated that is geometric configuration of the camera must be known.
In the computer vision community, the research has also been done in the multiple view
geometry (Multiple View Geometry in Computer Vision by Hartley and Zisserman). The 3D
model reconstruction is based on the multi resolution image correlation. The corresponding point
of the stereo-pair images that are captured from multiple cameras are matched with one another
and an implicit surface is computed that merges together the point clouds into single polygon
6. mesh using a variant of the marching cubes algorithm [6]. The second step includes the
generation of 3D thermogram by mapping the infrared picture to the 3D geometry which is quite
straight forward as the thermal camera and stereo pair of cameras are calibrated together. Some
hybrid systems consisting multiple thermal cameras (a combination of one digital and two
thermal cameras or a thermal camera stereo system) can be used to build accurate and dense 3D
models.
7. PROBLEM FORMULATION:
Day by day due to the continually increasing population the demand for electricity is also
escalating causing blackouts, brownouts and overloading. Due to which utilities are facing costly
unplanned maintenance and unreliable power delivery. At the consumer end also the tariff of
electrical power is growing at higher rate with unsatisfied service. Utilities are looking for newer
technology to address these issues in order to increase the reliability with reduced cost.
By using the thermal imaging cameras and automation software the real-time defect detection
and inspection of electrical equipment can be done any time with higher accuracy and reduced
cost.
Conventionally, the direct contact approach of preventive measurement risks the life of electrical
equipment as well as electrical workers. In order to reduce the risk of electrocution due to direct
physical contact measurement during testing and inspection the thermal imaging technology
proves to be a valuable solution.
But the current thermal imaging technology is based on the 2D imaging technique that doesn’t
gives us the satisfying results. Although for smaller field of view and diagnosis of the instrument
requiring only single view detection 2D thermal imaging is perfect but for the equipment in the
power substation it is not up to mark. Because in 2D thermal imaging we get only a small field of
view and low spatial resolution missing some important targets. To overcome these challenges
real time 3D modelling of the electrical equipment will give us a larger field of view and much
enhanced spatial vision.
