In WSNs, the sensor nodes sense different phenomenon from the surrounding area and forward data to the sink. Among the available routing protocols (RP), most of them used Low Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy (LEACH) but did not consider the battery energy level while selecting the cluster head (CH). This paper proposed a multi-energy threshold-based routing protocol based on LEACH, which provides different energy thresholds of battery energy level, called multi-energy threshold LEACH (MET-LEACH). The MET-LEACH uses remaining battery energy level to select the CHs. The first node dies (FND), the half nodes die (HND), the last node dies (LND), packet reception ratio (PRR) and the application level latency are the performance parameters to evaluate the performance of the proposed MET-LEACH protocol using the Castalia simulator. The simulation results show that MET-LEACH gives significant improvement in terms of FND (112% to 290%), HND (76% to 161%) and LND (76% to 185%) over the performance of LEACH.","PeriodicalId":331521,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 10th Control and System Graduate Research Colloquium (ICSGRC)","volume":"75 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127393257","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 conventional system showed the instability in the output response after operating for a long time. However, Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) and State Feedback control techniques have optimally controlled the system and overcome this instability. The transient analysis for both the methods showed that State Feedback method decreased the instability to a fair degree even though some oscillation exists just before reaching stability. On the other hand, LQR technique completely removed the oscillation from the system’s response due to the shifting of poles to the left half plane. Therefore, LQR is the best suited control technique for achieving an optimal controlled system.","PeriodicalId":331521,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 10th Control and System Graduate Research Colloquium (ICSGRC)","volume":"139 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127463629","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 order to occupy these increasing traffic demands, Device-to-Device (D2D) communication is a major possibility factor since it will increase the energy and spectral efficiency by considering the hop gains and reuse when radio resources are properly placed to the cellular and D2D layers. In this paper, cellular and multi-hop D2D are analysed using Network Simulator and Emulator (NetSim) in order to find the most optimal D2D hopping to achieve high throughput with zero packet error. Based on the result, zero throughput is obtained for cellular mode with the distance of 4000 meters from eNodeB (eNB) to User Equipment (UE). The throughput with highest data transfer is obtained for D2D mode with four hops which shows that D2D mode is highly recommended for the case where UE is located far away from eNB. Then, analysis is done by increasing the packet size to 5000 bits for each 20000μs interval and the results show that the packet error rate is only 0.15% which is acceptable for reliable communication links.","PeriodicalId":331521,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 10th Control and System Graduate Research Colloquium (ICSGRC)","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132192725","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}

Contrast distortion may be caused by poor lighting condition and poor quality image acquisition device. Contrast-distorted image (CDI) is defined as image with low dynamic range of brightness. Most of existing image quality assessment algorithms (IQAs) have been developed during the past decade. However, most of them are designed for images distorted by compression, noise and blurring. There are very few IQAs designed specifically for CDI, e.g. Reduced-reference Image Quality Metric for Contrast-changed images (RIQMC) and No Reference-Image Quality Assessment (NR-IQA) for Contrast-Distorted Images (NR-IQA-CDI). The five features used in NR-IQA-CDI are the global spatial statistics of an image including the mean, standard deviation, entropy, kurtosis and skewness. The statistical model or the Probability Density Function (PDF) for each of the given moment features were estimated using a public image database with large number of natural scene images. Because of poor performance in two out of three image databases, where the Pearson Correlation Coefficient (PLCC) were only 0.5739 and 0.7623 in TID2013 and CSIQ database, thus motivate us to further investigated to detect the gabs in existing NR-IQA-CDI. The paper can address the problem of existing NR-IQA-CDI which the bell-curve like probability density function (pdf) of the contrast related features like standard deviation and entropy does not correlate well with the monotonic relation between the contrast features and the perceived contrast level.","PeriodicalId":331521,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 10th Control and System Graduate Research Colloquium (ICSGRC)","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122906306","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, AVIS, which can actively isolate FSO devices from low-frequency vibration from the ground, is designed and developed. The main goal is to reduce vibration from the top plate of the system where the telescope of the FSOC system is placed. An analytical model of the active vibration isolation is derived, and then the real prototype is fabricated. An imbalance mass system is used as an exciter for the system. Furthermore, for the cost-saving factor, a voice coil actuator which is modified from a conventional loudspeaker is used as an actuator for the system. LQR controller is implemented by using LabVIEW. The results show that the displacement level of the system with excitation frequencies 6 Hz, 12 Hz and 18 Hz are reduced more than 85 %. Moreover, it is proven that the loudspeaker not only costs lower but also gives a good performance for an AVIS.","PeriodicalId":331521,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 10th Control and System Graduate Research Colloquium (ICSGRC)","volume":"122 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133206302","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}
