Significantly, it has improved the electron confinement towards the GaN channel. it exhibits the maximum drain current density (Id) of 859 mA/mm for AlGaN back barrier HEMT, 847 mA/mm for InGaN back barrier HEMT, and 829 mA/mm for AlN back barrier HEMT at VDs=5 V and VGS=0 V. In addition, it achieves the peak transconductance (gm) of 291 mS/mm for AlGaN back barrier HEMT, 286 mS/mm for InGaN back barrier HEMT and 281 mS/mm for AlN back barrier HEMT. Furthermore, the HEMT with AlGaN as back barrier enhanced the (fT) current-gain cutoff frequency from 17.42 GHz to 26.07 GHz. Besides, the drain leakage current into buffer layer is effectively controlled by a strong AlGaN back barrier, confirming better electron confinement towards the GaN channel to boost the RF performance of Al0.25Ga0.75N/GaN HEMT. Hence, the HEMT with AlGaN back barrier stands superior in DC and RF performance than the HEMT with InGaN and AlN back barriers.","PeriodicalId":321652,"journal":{"name":"2019 2nd International Conference on Signal Processing and Communication (ICSPC)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131141290","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 same design has also been used as a frequency reconfigurable antenna for narrow band coverage within the ultra wide band. The frequency reconfiguration could be realized using the various switching configurations of a few parasitic elements associated with the antenna. This antenna structure provides an operable range of frequencies from 3.14 to 10.6 GHz that makes the antenna suitable for ultra wide band and cognitive radio front end applications.

In a WSN, the nodes collaborate with each other to achieve the desired objectives by employing a task assignment algorithm. The majority of the existing WSN task assignment algorithms were designed for a homogeneous environment. However, the current trend of using heterogeneous nodes in WSN application warrants an elaborate investigations on the various factors influencing task assignment in heterogeneous environment. Extensive analysis on decisive factors such as node properties, WSN architecture, WSN application types were exhaustively carried out. Subsequently, a multi-objective based task assignment algorithm using Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) was proposed. Various case studies on PSO by varying the fitness function and criteria weights were modelled and experimented through simulation to study the feasibility of achieving the desired objectives. The performance metrics such as energy consumption, response time and successful task assignment ratio were analyzed under different cases. Our investigations reveal that multi-objective based PSO outperforms its legacy counterpart in achieving the desired objectives with higher successful task assignment ratio in the heterogeneous environment.","PeriodicalId":321652,"journal":{"name":"2019 2nd International Conference on Signal Processing and Communication (ICSPC)","volume":"46 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114545343","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}

Banana production is affected by natural calamities and plant diseases. But plant diseases present a constant threat to the farmers affecting the quantity and quality of the banana cultivation. From the last decade, the image processing techniques and machine learning algorithms have been broadly used for identification and classification of infections in plants. In this work, texture pattern techniques for identification and classification of diseases in banana plants is introduced. The proposed methodology consists of two primary phases; (a) extraction of texture features from using local binary pattern (LBP); (b) classification of banana plant diseases and healthy banana plant. The texture features using LBP are extracted from an enhanced input image. The extracted features are fed to Support Vector Machine (SVM) and K-nearest neighbor (KNN) for final banana plant disease classification. The proposed technique is tested on the Plant Village dataset for the classification of two different experimental cases (i) Healthy-Black Sigatoka and (ii) Healthy-Cordana leaf spot. The proposed methodology attained an accuracy of 89.1 % and 90.9% for two experimental cases using SVM classifier.","PeriodicalId":321652,"journal":{"name":"2019 2nd International Conference on Signal Processing and Communication (ICSPC)","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121696029","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 ability of a neural network classifier to detect patterns depends on the number of hidden layers as well as the number of neurons in them, and the training function. This work analyses the performances of multi-layer neural networks corresponding to some training functions, which include gradient descent, conjugate gradient, one-step secant, and resilient algorithms, in detecting the P300 signals from the mind-speller data.
