An equivalent circuit model of MWCNT is used for estimation and analysis of propagation delay. The delay through MWCNT and Cu interconnects are compared for various driver sizes and number of MWCNT shells. The SPICE simulation results show that the MWCNT interconnect has lower propagation delay than Cu interconnects. The delay ratio of MWCNT to Cu decreases with increase in length for different driver size and number of MWCNT shells. However, the delay ratio increases with reduction in number of MWCNT shells. MWCNT is considered to be potential alternative to copper interconnects in future. MWCNT provides significant improvement in propagation delay performance over Copper for long (global) interconnects.","PeriodicalId":290448,"journal":{"name":"2011 International Conference on Devices and Communications (ICDeCom)","volume":"20 8","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121008436","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 the current work, we propose a simple algorithm which can suppress the spectral leakage completely and simultaneously enhance the spectral resolution. In this algorithm, we are exploiting the fact that the mainlobe width is twice of the sidelobe width.

A linear array consisting of half wavelength long unequally spaced parallel dipoles is designed to meet the increasing demand of extremely large bandwidth in wireless communication systems. Array is devised to maintain an almost invariable radiation patterns over a wide range of frequencies. Constant beam widths, good side lobe characteristics and minimum bearable voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) are achieved for the allocated frequency band. Coupling effect has been taken into account via induced EMF method and minimized in terms of VSWR. In the proposed technique excitation and position of the individual array element are optimized in order to obtain a fixed SLL and minimum bearable VSWR over the proposed bandwidth. Dynamic range ratio (DRR) of excitation distribution is fixed at an optimum value for further mitigation of coupling effect. Phase distribution for all the elements is kept at zero degree. An adaption schemes to tune the scaling factor and crossover rate of population in DE is used to solve the design problem. Numerical results show the aforementioned modifications make the algorithm more effective to design the proposed broadband array.","PeriodicalId":290448,"journal":{"name":"2011 International Conference on Devices and Communications (ICDeCom)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132644717","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}

Normally wireless sensor networks are distinguished from conventional networks by their energy constraints and limited computational power. Huge volumes of data are sensed and generated by the sensor nodes when they are deployed in the dynamic environment. Mostly the source and sink nodes are not within each other's transmission range. Congestion occurs when the intermediate nodes forward the data from source to sink. Many of the existing approaches focus on controlling the link level congestions in the network. Our proposed Queue reloading scheme controls the node level congestion. In order to avoid the retransmission of packets, the proposed scheme uses an alternative queue for caching the overflowed packets. The dropped packets are reloaded from the alternative queue when the current queue becomes available. The lifetime of the nodes depend on allocation rate. Our scheme saves the network resources; consuming less energy and aids achievement of improved efficiency and throughput. The node level congestion control is basically needed for WSNs, because the node can be deployed anywhere in the environment.","PeriodicalId":290448,"journal":{"name":"2011 International Conference on Devices and Communications (ICDeCom)","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125270420","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}

Though earlier works have studied and reported the same, a framework for automatic generation of VoIP speech is lacking. A number of speech corpus for different applications are available for microphone speech. As domain specific performance needs to be evaluated in matched acoustic characteristics and application conditions, methods that enable automatic generation of target speech from the available microphone speech are important to a researcher in saving time and effort.

With location-based routing, small, cheap and resource constrained nodes can perform the routing function without the need of complex computations and large amount of memory space. In the traditional approach, nodes advertise their availability to update the routing table. We eliminate this to reduce energy consumption. We introduce Modified Greedy Perimeter Stateless Routing (GPSR) routing protocol for efficient communication among sensor nodes, which identifies optimal route based on energy utilization. The implementation of GPSR in sensor networks faces many challenges due to limited memory and battery energy on each node, frequent change of network topology and unreliable infrastructure. Our Modified-GPSR approach results in near-optimal communication cost across the network. The simulation results prove that the energy and delay in minimized and substantially increases the network lifetime of sensor node.
