We used the Johnson's Techniques of three machines for developing this heuristic algorithm. A numerical illustration is also provided to verify the effectiveness of developed heuristic algorithm.","PeriodicalId":340007,"journal":{"name":"2016 International Conference on Emerging Trends in Communication Technologies (ETCT)","volume":"22 5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129052288","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 consists of a reconfigurable E to C shaped resonator centrally loaded on a multiple mode resonator (MMR). The MMR is constructed using stepped impedance resonator. Two notch frequencies are created by using reconfigurable E to C shaped resonator in order to reject these two interfering frequencies. Reconfigurability has been achieved by using a switch in the structure. The structure has been analysed for the two states of the switch reconfiguring E to C shape for ON and OFF states. By tuning the length of this reconfigurable E to C shaped resonator, the center frequencies of these notches can be changed.","PeriodicalId":340007,"journal":{"name":"2016 International Conference on Emerging Trends in Communication Technologies (ETCT)","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133972771","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}

Frequency Hopping (FH) codes are similar in construction of Time Hopping (TH) codes used in Ultra Wide Band (UWB) communication systems. Since the development of TH codes is not yet fully established, in this paper an effort has been made to utilize FH code families as TH codes as the former are widely available in large numbers and have been dealt with in literature. This paper investigates the similarity between correlation properties of FH and TH codes. Lower bounds of auto correlation and cross correlation functions of TH codes have been derived and compared those with FH codes. It is found that the values of correlation functions for TH codes are higher than those for FH codes. This conclusion has been established through a case study using three well-established FH code sequence families.","PeriodicalId":340007,"journal":{"name":"2016 International Conference on Emerging Trends in Communication Technologies (ETCT)","volume":"68 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133044072","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}

This dense deployment of heterogeneous cells has a large impact on the power consumption of network. Thus, issue of energy efficiency need to be considered in perspective of deploy of several base station (BS) in the area. In 5G standard, massive MIMO architecture has been proposed to enhance energy efficiency (EE) of network. In this paper, we have considered the heterogeneous network (HetNet), where microcell, picocell and femtocell are coexist within macrocell. The macrocell BSs (MBS) are equipped with large array of antennas and all other BSs are supported with limited number of antennas. This work assumes users are supported by massive MIMO architecture, where MBS and few nearest BSs are participated. In this paper, we mainly investigate the impact of deployment efficiency of heterogeneous small cells BSs and, user association in a HetNet with massive MIMO to maximize the system energy efficiency (EE). Our results show that involvement of nearest BSs is greatly enhance the system energy efficiency (EE) and the deployment efficiency of small cells in macrocell environment also have impact on system EE.","PeriodicalId":340007,"journal":{"name":"2016 International Conference on Emerging Trends in Communication Technologies (ETCT)","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133685593","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 also helps in determination of spatio-temporal and kinematic parameters. Gyroscopes, inertial sensors, magnetometers and foot sensors are popular in the detection of gait events. They need to be mounted carefully, or foot should be placed specifically on foot pressure during detection. This study presents a framework for automated detection of gait events from conventional videography using passive markers at Robotics And Machine Analytic Laboratory (RAMAN Lab). The proposed Passive maker based Gait event detection (PMGED) algorithm automatically detects heel strike (HS) and toe-off (TO); the timing of stance and swing phase; the number of the gait cycle. Ten healthy subjects are considered to evaluate the robustness and reliability of proposed algorithm. The method is comparable when evaluated against human expert detection.","PeriodicalId":340007,"journal":{"name":"2016 International Conference on Emerging Trends in Communication Technologies (ETCT)","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130607152","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}

This paper unveils the optimization of a two stage input filter for realizing a Phase Shifted Full bridge (PSFB) topology Electronic Power Conditioner for space applications. Attenuation challenges and filter interaction problems are tried to avoid with a novel optimization methodology.

The model can be used to find safe paths to safe locations in such disaster-affected areas where the state rescue and relief teams may take some time to reach. The information generated (e.g., GPS logs at regular intervals) by stranded agents (victims), who have somehow managed on their own to reach safe locations, is used to find paths that can be suggested to other agents stranded in the disaster-affect areas. This is done through mobile-phones via web enabled services. The technique allows a large number of people to reach the safe locations on their own, which aids the ongoing state rescue and relief operations. Paths created by following the GPS log traces can be used to make new paths which are the hybrids of the previous paths created. Real life constraints will be considered such as capacity of safe areas, paths etc.","PeriodicalId":340007,"journal":{"name":"2016 International Conference on Emerging Trends in Communication Technologies (ETCT)","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128810681","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}
