A comparative analysis has been made by replacing the conventional quarter wavelength transmission lines by stub loaded transmission lines. The proposed model has been designed on RT Duroid /5880 substrate and simulated using AWR Design Environment. Subsequent harmonics in the conventional rat race coupler are suppressed by reducing the electrical length less than 450. Simulation results of the designed coupler agrees well with the theoretical design.","PeriodicalId":234041,"journal":{"name":"2016 Thirteenth International Conference on Wireless and Optical Communications Networks (WOCN)","volume":"68 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-07-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131486515","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 decomposition is necessary because practical limitations in radio implementation prevent the relay from simultaneously transmitting and receiving on the same channel. K relays in RCD require K+1 channels which shows that as the number of relays increases the number of required channels increases linearly. This increase in channels gives fundamental drawback in all cooperative diversity networks. So if this problem is not addressed the cooperative diversity networks will lose attractiveness for high data rate, high efficiency communications. In this paper this problem is addressed tried to find a solution. The performance of the best-relay selection scheme will be examined in which only the “best” relay takes part in relaying, therefore only two channels take part in transmission regardless of the number of relays. The relay node that gives the highest signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) at the destination node is considered to be the best relay. A general mathematic probability model is presented and examined the performance of best-relay selection using amplify and forward (AF) scheme.","PeriodicalId":234041,"journal":{"name":"2016 Thirteenth International Conference on Wireless and Optical Communications Networks (WOCN)","volume":"340 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-07-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117069479","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 hassle of manually operating a switch is replaced by a smart technique which involves operating the switches using the web browser present in mobile phones, laptops or any other electronic gadgets. Smart switches already exist in the market today, but are very expensive and requires additional devices like hubs for their working. The current work makes use of a web App and a cloud to control the operation of the switches. A cloud server is created for the environment where the switches are mounted. The switches are interfaced with few electronic components such as logic gates, a 555 timer, flip-flops and a processor. The user communicates with the processor through the Web App. The processor then controls the switches based on the commands received from the user and also updates the user about the status of the switches after the control operation is performed to the cloud.","PeriodicalId":234041,"journal":{"name":"2016 Thirteenth International Conference on Wireless and Optical Communications Networks (WOCN)","volume":"1038 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-07-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123139533","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}
