A new method is proposed to alleviate transmission line overloads, created by the outage of a single transmission line. An overloaded transmission line may trip, causing power to be redistributed to other transmission lines, which may get overloaded themselves. This may lead to cascading outages, destabilization, and blackouts. The proposed new method uses the PSS®E to shed load from specific buses and to reduces power output of specific generators. The method was applied to the IEEE 39-bus power system using additional softwares Python, and Excel. All 34 transmission lines were disconnected individually and transmission lines were monitored for overcurrents. The proposed method for reducing loads and generation was found to successfully remove overloads of transmission lines, ensuring stability and continuity of power. The method was found to be effective for power system protection. The method may not be optimal, but may be practical for implementation.","PeriodicalId":269697,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE International IOT, Electronics and Mechatronics Conference (IEMTRONICS)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129573855","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}

Being inside an extremely hot car for a prolonged time can lead to major health problems. This paper focuses on the thermal comfort of infants. Traditionally air conditioning systems are used to cool down an infant car seat which is not effective due to the portability and cooling duration. In this paper, heat relief for the child is researched using a thermoelectric cooling system. This paper reviews various factors concerning the development of a temperature-controlled infant car seat. This study focuses on the health and safety of children inside the cars, the subjective needs of the parent, heat management in the car cabin environment, thermoelectric modeling, and the methods for precise temperature control for effective thermoelectric cooling. In-depth research has been conducted on the contributions of other researchers on the thermoelectric cooling system in a car.

From the simulation results, it can be observed that P&O is much affected with slow tracking and oscillations, and IC MPPT performs better than P&O in terms of tracking, but not for ripples. Simulation results verifies that RCC MPPT is capable of solving both these problems effectively and RCC performance is better than both P&O and IC MPPT methods.","PeriodicalId":269697,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE International IOT, Electronics and Mechatronics Conference (IEMTRONICS)","volume":"55 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129731889","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}

It degrades the network’s performance in various operating variables such as throughput, latency, energy consumption, packet loss, lifetime of the network and etc. Congestion occurs in WSN when the rate of sensor data flow outreach the channel or buffer capacity. The congestion is controlled in two ways in WSN, such as controlling network traffic or efficiently managing the resources. This paper performs the resource control mechanism by providing the alternative path towards to base station using a Q-learning for congestion alleviation. This congestion-aware data acquisition (CADA) mechanism initially identifies the congestion node (CN) where the nodes buffer occupancy ratio is higher. Further, we recognize the proper next node to construct the dynamic alternative route to the base station. The CADA is evaluated in various network conditions by comparing it with recent congestion-aware algorithms. The simulation tests show that the CADA efficiently ameliorates the congestion and enhances the performance across multiple performance metrics.","PeriodicalId":269697,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE International IOT, Electronics and Mechatronics Conference (IEMTRONICS)","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128637367","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}

Some crops grow better in low-intensity sunlight and suffer from sunburn damages due to excessive sunlight. As such, these types of harvests are required to be cultivated under shades. This paper describes the design of an automated agro shading incorporating FRDM-K64F MCU with several control options that will free the farmers from constantly surveilling the corps for proper sunlight intensity. In this approach, there are multiple input methods to change the state of the shade flaps, including physical and automatic control via a developed android app for smartphones. Additionally, full automation can be turned on through Bluetooth connection to regulate the cover automatically based on the magnitude of the incoming sunlight in any given area. Thus, the shading mechanism can provide an optimal lux environment. For improving the yield of agricultural plants with nutritious values, the presented module will revolutionize agricultural automation – offering a cost-effective multi-controlled shading approach to solve farming issues regarding photosynthesis and weather conditions.","PeriodicalId":269697,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE International IOT, Electronics and Mechatronics Conference (IEMTRONICS)","volume":"72 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132612618","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}

In this paper, we attempt to use the language of structure learning to address learning the dynamic influence network between partially observable processes represented as hidden Markov models (HMMs). The importance of learning an influence network is for knowledge discovery and to improve density estimation in temporal distributions. We learn the dynamic influence network, defined by this paper, by first learning the optimal distribution for each process using hidden Markov models, and thereafter apply redefined structure learning algorithms for temporal models to reveal influence relationships. This paper provides the following contributions: we (a) provide a definition of influence between stochastic processes represented by HMMs; and (b) expand on the conventional structure learning literature by providing a structure score and learning procedure to learn influence relationships between HMMs. We provide empirical evidence of the effectiveness of our method over several baselines.","PeriodicalId":269697,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE International IOT, Electronics and Mechatronics Conference (IEMTRONICS)","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134462977","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}
