The accuracy of switching angles is dependent upon the resolution of the encoder and the sampling period of the microprocessor, that are used to provide the information of rotor position and to control the SRM power circuit, respectively. However, as the speed increases, the amount of switching angle deviation from the preset values is also increased. In this paper, a new low-price linear grade encoder, suitable for the practical and stable SRM drives, is proposed. And also, a control algorithm to provide the switching signals using the simple digital logic circuit is presented. As a result, a stable high speed SRM drive can be achieved by the high resolution switching angle control and it is verified from the experiments that the proposed encoder and its logic controller can be a powerful candidate for the practical low cost SRM drive.","PeriodicalId":358168,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of IEEE Region 10 International Conference on Electrical and Electronic Technology.

The proposed APF with an MAPPT scheme can further improve the power quality over that of a conventional zero-crossing detection method. The main idea of the proposed scheme is to keep on shifting the filtered input current (almost no harmonics) with an angle and then recalculating the apparent power to check if a minimum apparent power point (MAPP) has been reached. Once a MAPP has been reached, a high power factor and a minimum current stress can be achieved. Simulated and experimental results are presented to verify the feasibility of the proposed MAPPT scheme.","PeriodicalId":358168,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of IEEE Region 10 International Conference on Electrical and Electronic Technology.

The proposed structure is able to achieve significant savings in the number of multipliers and adders when combined with the interpolated finite impulse response (IFIR) technique. The savings are achieved by replacing the interpolator in an IFIR filter with a prefilter-equalizer. The implementation of the proposed prefilter is multiplication free which leads to low complexity and low cost. We have shown by an example that the proposed structure yields additional savings of 44% and 36% in the number of multipliers and adders, respectively, compared to the IFIR approach.","PeriodicalId":358168,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of IEEE Region 10 International Conference on Electrical and Electronic Technology.

A key part of the proposed models is the \"delay-effect factor\", which measures the expected time lag in correcting the detected faults during software development. To establish the proposed model, we first determine the delay-effect factor to be included In the actual correction process. For the conventional SRGMs, the delay-effect factor is basically non-decreasing. This means that the delayed effect becomes more significant as time moves forward. Since this phenomenon may not be reasonable for some applications, we adopt a bell-shaped curve to reflect the human learning process in our proposed model. Experiments on a real data set for Internet-distributed software has been performed, and the results show that the proposed new model gives better performance in estimating the number of initial faults than previous approaches.","PeriodicalId":358168,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of IEEE Region 10 International Conference on Electrical and Electronic Technology.

At very low bit-rates, these artifacts become visibly annoying, particularly in smooth areas or the image. Most de-blocking techniques to date are block-based and have only limited visual success because of the highly regular grid structure or the block boundaries. This paper is concerned mainly with the reduction of blocking artifacts in these smooth areas using a ternary polynomial surface to model the pixel intensity over a 2/spl times/2 block array called macro-block. Unlike current polynomial surface fitting techniques, including the JPEG technique, our novel technique attempts to compensate for the quantization error in the JPEG compressed DC coefficients. The technique uses a linear programming approach to optimize the fitting of the surface model to the quantized DC coefficients to within their corresponding JPEG quantization range. The proposed technique produces a much more pleasing image while having practically the same PSNR as the current de-blocking techniques using surface fitting approach.","PeriodicalId":358168,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of IEEE Region 10 International Conference on Electrical and Electronic Technology.

This paper presents a new real-time system for this purpose. Two motion cues from background subtraction and temporal differencing are employed to not only get reliable motion detection but also identify detected objects in the scene. A fuzzy reasoning technique is developed to detect and locate motion objects from vertical projection of motion cues. The background model is updated on both pixel level and region level to adapt both slow illumination changes and sudden extraneous events. This new background maintenance technique makes the system able to work under varying environments. The system has been run round the clock in real scenes and the performance is very promising.","PeriodicalId":358168,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of IEEE Region 10 International Conference on Electrical and Electronic Technology.

In common with SPIHT, LZC performs a recursive tree search that is likely to discard some important coefficients when the bit rate is low. Therefore, we propose a new LZC algorithm that uses a raster tree search to minimize important information loss. The zerotree structure is embedded into the recursive tree search but for the raster tree search the zerotree structure will need to be stored in the buffer memory. The new LZC utilizes a flag bitmap to store the matrix-wide zerotree structure that is conventionally stored in coordinate lists by other raster tree search zerotree algorithms. Consequently, the new LZC exhibits not only a dramatically low coding memory requirement but also a very low coding complexity.","PeriodicalId":358168,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of IEEE Region 10 International Conference on Electrical and Electronic Technology.

Ideally these metal samples (electrodes) would be identical, but it is not uncommon, for various reasons, for the electrodes to be significantly different. In that case, the theory linking the noise resistance to the more conventional electrochemical parameter, the polarisation resistance, breaks down. This link is important because it is only via the polarisation resistance that noise resistance can be used for corrosion rate estimation. It is therefore important to be able to detect an asymmetric electrode pair. This paper describes how the cross correlation between voltage and current noise can be used to detect an asymmetry.","PeriodicalId":358168,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of IEEE Region 10 International Conference on Electrical and Electronic Technology.
