The proposed algorithm is divided into two main categories: initial positioning and tracking. After acquiring an estimate about the distances of an un-located mobile terminal (UMT) by measuring the Received Signal Strength (RSS) and Time of Arrival (ToA), we obtain initial position for an UMT via triangulations and Recursive Maximum Likelihood (ML) estimator. The recursive estimation is achieved by dividing the studied region into a grid of possible locations. After having initial estimated measured positions at different time stamps, those positions can be enhanced via an hybrid combination through the Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) proposed in this work for tracking. Simulation results show that the proposed positioning technique performs very well, even in shadowed regions.","PeriodicalId":103316,"journal":{"name":"MELECON 2014 - 2014 17th IEEE Mediterranean Electrotechnical Conference","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-04-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116491520","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The channel time allocation (CTA) scheduler plays an important role in sizing CTAs within each superframe. In this paper, we propose an efficient admission control and centralized CTA mechanism for a hop-2 mesh communication in the IEEE 802.15.5. The proposed algorithm is executed between the mesh Piconet Coordinators (MPNC)s and their piconets' member mesh devices (MDEV)s s to provides a reliable resource allocation mechanism for the piconets at the hop-2 of the IEEE 802.15.5. This mechanism induces satisfaction and fairness among the requesting hop-2 Real-time (RT) and non-RT (NRT) MDEVs. It introduces the use of a novel priority Flag metric and takes the channel requests rejection rate into consideration. We evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm through simulations and the results show that the proposed approach achieves good performance in terms of satisfaction and fairness.","PeriodicalId":103316,"journal":{"name":"MELECON 2014 - 2014 17th IEEE Mediterranean Electrotechnical Conference","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-04-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132172121","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We design and develop a novel and secure searchable encryption scheme for mobile devices. In the proposed algorithm, a content based index is constructed and a locality sensitive hashing is used to allow the user to store his files on the cloud in a secure way and then perform a secure query and a fuzzy search. Moreover, the scheme allows to rank the results while maintaining the privacy and confidentiality of the user and to save storage space and computation resources of his mobile phone. To quantify the performance of the proposed scheme, a range of tests are performed and experimental results demonstrate that the proposed system is suitable for a secure, fast and searchable storage mobile-cloud system.","PeriodicalId":103316,"journal":{"name":"MELECON 2014 - 2014 17th IEEE Mediterranean Electrotechnical Conference","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-04-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128217368","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This latter is a switching circuit which creates high frequency harmonics. Generally, a filter is used at the amplifier output for the sake of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). So often, in integrated solutions, this filter contains ferrite beads which are magnetic components and present nonlinear behavior. Time domain measurements and their equivalence in frequency domain are presented. Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) measurements according to the audio signal frequency and amplitude are exposed and discussed. It is shown that ferrite beads introduce up to 30 dB of additional THD which prove the negative effect of the ferrite bead on the amplifier audio quality.","PeriodicalId":103316,"journal":{"name":"MELECON 2014 - 2014 17th IEEE Mediterranean Electrotechnical Conference","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-04-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122252407","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To enhance the cable termination lifetime, many factors are examined to reduce the electric-field intensification and the induced current density in the copper sheath. The aim of this simulation is to investigate how the electric and the induced current density distributions can be reduced to avoid partial discharge activities and hot spot formation, respectively. In the electrostatic analysis, the electric-field distributions are studied for unpolluted and polluted cases and with different relative permittivities of each layer. In addition, two methods of stress relief are also investigated, namely, the stress control cone and stress control tube. In the magnetic analysis, three cases are investigated at the rated ampacity of the cable, namely, balanced, unbalanced and single phasing, where the induced current density distributions are laterally computed.","PeriodicalId":103316,"journal":{"name":"MELECON 2014 - 2014 17th IEEE Mediterranean Electrotechnical Conference","volume":"50 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-04-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125858166","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposed technique relies on a simplified equation relating the bias current to the oscillation amplitude and the equivalent tank losses. The applied technique takes also into account the tank losses dependency on frequency setting in wideband LC-VCOs. The control algorithm aims to predict by feed-forward action the optimal bias current giving the optimum phase noise performance. Performed simulations are based on a 0.13 μm CMOS implementation for the oscillator part while the control algorithm is implemented using behavioral blocks. Simulation results show equivalent phase noise control accuracy to automatic amplitude control (AAC) architectures, while achieving superior performance in terms of control speed, parasitic load and extra noise-sources elimination.","PeriodicalId":103316,"journal":{"name":"MELECON 2014 - 2014 17th IEEE Mediterranean Electrotechnical Conference","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-04-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127849346","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
