The proposed architecture demonstrates the tradeoff between energy capture, performance and receiver complexity by combining the benefits of both partial and selective RAKE receiver algorithms.

The main goal consists of designing a time invariant controller that guarantees stability even with a certain performance in terms of decay rate subject to random transient failures both in sensors and actuators.

The most commonly used software is a combination of the common optical flow measurement method of Horn and Shunk with a ruggedized backward forward block matching method. The best results for this method show a low reliability for the optic flow measurement (less than 5%) and mostly rely on the ruggedized backwards forwards block matching. The current paper demonstrates that by correct tuning of the aperture a scale space based optical flow measurement can produce a higher reliability than the former tensor method. In addition, when the output of the scale space optical flow measurements are used to constrain the search space of the block matching method a still higher reliability is achievable. Systematic errors introduced by the forward backward matching with a non-optimally constrained search space are also eliminated.","PeriodicalId":256057,"journal":{"name":"Melecon 2010 - 2010 15th IEEE Mediterranean Electrotechnical Conference","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-04-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128504551","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}

Crosspoint queued switch architecture has been recently actualized, since it is now not a problem to implement large buffers in crosspoints using modern technology any more. An advantage of this type of solution is the absence of control communication between linecards and schedulers. Four algorithms are used to implement a scheduler: longest queue first, round-robin, frame based round robin matching and random. Throughput, average cell latency and loss probability, are evaluated under uniform and various nonuniform traffic patterns. Results will show that the longest queue first algorithm has the best performance in most simulated cases. It will also be shown that an implemented algorithm does not have any influence on switch performance if the buffers are long enough.","PeriodicalId":256057,"journal":{"name":"Melecon 2010 - 2010 15th IEEE Mediterranean Electrotechnical Conference","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-04-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124621017","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}

However, increasing the quality factor also increases the duration of the transient process in the filter after the action of the excitation. This paper presents a concept of digital IIR narrow bandpass filters whose quality factor changes with time. Owing to a temporary change in the value of the quality factor, the transient can be considerably reduced. Simulations verifying the effectiveness of the proposed Q-varying bandpass filter are presented and compared to the performance of the traditional Q-constant filter.","PeriodicalId":256057,"journal":{"name":"Melecon 2010 - 2010 15th IEEE Mediterranean Electrotechnical Conference","volume":"47 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-04-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115957191","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}
