It is seen that the popular algorithms based on K-SVD proposed earlier has still in use. However, the texture part of the image could not be preserved during the process of denoising. It is also seen that the effect becomes more visible with increased value of standard deviation of the Gaussian noise. The proposed algorithm in this work uses curvelet transform along with K-SVD to retain the texture part of the image. The denoising with the proposed method shows better PSNR performance as compared to denoising with only K-SVD.","PeriodicalId":352568,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Conference on Microwave, Optical and Communication Engineering (ICMOCE)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129302772","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}

Many methods of gain stabilization in EDFA has already been proposed in the recent past. In our work, we propose a novel method for gain contouring and output power stabilization in Erbium Doped Fiber Amplifiers. The amplifier with gain control is designed and simulated. The flattening of gain spectrum of EDFA is achieved by photonic switching using Optical Add Drop Multiplexers (OADM) and Fiber Bragg Gratings (FBG). The stabilization of gain and output power of EDFA is also experimentally verified. In the proposed feedforward technique, the output power stabilization is achieved by proper selection of modulator parameters.","PeriodicalId":352568,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Conference on Microwave, Optical and Communication Engineering (ICMOCE)","volume":"68 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128787444","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 wireless sensor nodes are battery powered in most of the applications especially in health monitoring systems. Usage of these battery powered wireless sensor nodes with minimal energy consumption is the bottleneck in wireless sensor network based health monitoring systems. Deployment of large number of these battery powered sensor nodes in an environment and maintaining the wireless sensor network for long lifetime is a critical task. The lifetime of wireless sensor networks is increased by using several power saving techniques for data collection and processing. In this work, we present a novel cluster based vital health data collection, processing and routing. The wide wireless sensor network covered by a base station is partitioned into several clusters with cluster head routing data to/from base station. Each cluster consisting of several body area networks with body heads, which are responsible for routing data to/from cluster head. Thus, creation of cluster heads and body heads and assigning special tasks to cluster heads and body heads can greatly contribute to overall system scalability, lifetime, and energy efficiency. With this system architecture, we can greatly minimize the average power consumed by a wireless sensor network.","PeriodicalId":352568,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Conference on Microwave, Optical and Communication Engineering (ICMOCE)","volume":"47 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115945741","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 MIMO antenna system consists of two radiating elements on a single low-cost FR4 substrate with a thickness of 1.6mm. The proposed antenna operates at 2.4 GHz. The bandwidth of the antenna is 60MHz, which extends from 2.38GHz to 2.47 GHz which is suitable for WLAN operations. The distance between the two antenna elements is 3mm (0.05λ). The gain of the designed antenna is around 7dB. Defected Ground Structure (DGS) has been added on the ground plane of the antenna to enhance isolation between the two radiating elements. Isolation between the two radiating elements could be decreased upto -20dB from -13 dB with the use of defected ground structure.

For the proposed OS-ACE scheme, the input signals are divided into a number of overlapped segments and then the ACE operation is processed on each segment.

When the beam deflects due to an applied electrostatic force, strain is introduced in the beam and hence the grating period changes giving rise to shift in the Bragg wavelength. Since Bragg gratings acts like filter in transmission spectrum we can achieve tunable filter by applying varying voltages to the cantilever beam.
