It is becoming more so with the widespread use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) for data capture. With a similar purpose to the use of UAV, TanDEM-X satellite images are also able to capture the information about the earth surface. It would therefore be interesting to compare the accuracies of both methods and that became the aim of this paper. The DEM from UAV was generated using Agisoft PhotoScan software. Using ArcGIS, the study made the comparison based on the elevation data extracted from verification points and structure of Triangulation Irregular Network (TIN). The result showed that the DEM extracted using UAV had a better accuracy compared to TanDEM-X product. Expectedly, both are positively correlated with R2 = 0.7992 and therefore both can be used with reliable accuracy.","PeriodicalId":400983,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 15th International Colloquium on Signal Processing & Its Applications (CSPA)","volume":"114 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132305960","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}

ERP systems are now the backbone of many companies and organizations to collect business data and information from a different department in a single database and allow employees and business managers to generate reports that simplify business processes. Cloud system computing is growing and is starting to get into more and more corporations. The significant and most tested cloud systems allow more businesses to gain confidence in the clouds. Traditional ERP systems are hosted locally in every corporation where they themselves need to maintain the system. Since the growth of cloud computing, are beginning to be developed as cloud applications. By removing the maintenance responsibilities of business equipment and tools, the cloud-based ERP system is on an upward trend. This thesis contains a comparison of different ERP cloud systems.

Comfortable furniture and smart peripheral devices become common for well living in daily life. For example, an electronic wireless switch could be controlled via a mobile phone to open or close home appliances (i.e. light, air-conditioner, security and alarm system), it is so-called \"Home Appliances Control\". This paper demonstrated a simple-wireless standalone system for the case of the receiver module attached to the compressor unit of the conventional air conditioner. This research proposed an air-compressor as a source of discrete excitations and employed a conventional buzzer as a transducer. The vibration is harvested its mechanical energy to electricity by using a cantilever-type structure glued with the piezoelectric buzzer. The output energy is stored in capacitors thus being consequent as a miniature generator; then, the transmitted data is received by a wireless receiver from the remote transmitter. These result confirmed that the simple cantilever could act as a charger for the connected capacitors which was subsequently an energy source to feed wireless units. In this work, a running air-conditioner produced a charging cycle to capacitors of 3,150 µF within 1 hour. This is sufficient to send and receive the data of atmospheric temperature around the building. This application is useful as a warning sign for inhabitants.","PeriodicalId":400983,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 15th International Colloquium on Signal Processing & Its Applications (CSPA)","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126101647","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}

While the usages of MLIs are continuously growing in every area of power industries, it also initiates certain challenges that require attention. The increased number of power electronic components is one of the most challenging issues for multilevel inverters. The output power quality and the semiconductor device ratings of the grid connected high power inverters are largely dependent on the number of power components. Thus, it is required to decrease the overall power components as much as possible while designing these inverters. Therefore, this paper proposes a single phase 7-level cross-switched multilevel inverter that can produce higher voltages utilizing lesser power components. In order to further improve the efficiency of this MLI and enhancing its performance, selective harmonic elimination pulse width modulation (SHE-PWM) control technique is implemented. Here, Newton Raphson algorithm is examined to calculate the switching angles for different modulation indices. The fundamental voltage is obtained by solving the equations in such a way that the desired low order harmonics are eliminated.

The UAVs have become applicable in civilian, military and across industries circumstances like remote sensing, mapping, traffic monitoring, storm tracking and forecasting, precision crop monitoring, aerial photography, unmanned cargo transport, law enforcement and border control surveillance, search and rescue, etc. In this context, the use of UAV for border protection is one of particular importance to the State of Libya from illegal immigrant and smuggling of the weapons. Libya geographical position, considered a transit point to Europe and lack off the security stability in recent years. Moreover, the length of the Libya border and the difficulty of the geographical terrain especially the Sahara in the south make it difficult for the Border Guard to monitor the border. The use of UAV is the best way to protect the borders, which has several advantages, notably cheap cost, suitable for desert climate, the quality of images taken by UAVs, with high.

To increase the lifetime of network several protocols have been defined. In this paper, comparisons of different protocols of LEACH have been made to judge performance of these protocols. The protocols LEACH, LEACH-C, MH-LEACH, TL-LEACH, E-LEACH, TB-LEACH, W-LEACH and LEACH-VH have been studied and compared in terms of their energy efficiency. In all the protocols of LEACH cluster head selection mechanism have been discussed in a different way due to which energy is saved. The simulation results of these protocols are observed on MATLAB.

Many studies were done to improve localization effectiveness in the existence of multiple faults. Some studies attempt to isolate faults into separate fault-focused clusters that target single faults. However, isolating failures to their causative faults is still an issue and needs improvement. In this paper, we propose the use of a network community clustering algorithm to isolate faults into separate fault-focused communities, each targeting a single fault. These fault-focused communities will be given to developers to debug the faults simultaneously in parallel. The method is evaluated on 5 well-known multiple-fault subject programs from the Siemens test suite benchmark. The experimental results show that the network community clustering algorithm is relatively effective in isolating different faults into distinct fault-focused communities with improvements in faults localization effectiveness. The result also shows improvement in terms of reducing the expense to produce a failure-free program.","PeriodicalId":400983,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 15th International Colloquium on Signal Processing & Its Applications (CSPA)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131192029","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}

An important component in all modern automobiles is the windscreen wiper which is used to remove rain and snow, ice and even debris from the windscreen. It generally consists of a metal arm, pivoting at one end and with a long rubber blade attached to the other. In the mass production of this windscreen wiper system, consisting of the wiper blade and the wiper arm, their quality is a major factor of competitiveness given that defects on either components will bring negative effect on its market value. As the volume produced is high, it is very difficult to monitor the quality manually. Nevertheless, the current practice is to conduct manual inspection, which leads to high production cost and other quality issues. We have developed an automated defect inspection system which can be implemented in the manufacturing process of car wiper arms using a combination of various image processing techniques together with convolutional neural network (CNN). The goal of this investigation is to detect and to accurately classify wiper arm defects in a very short time. This can improve the quality of the wiper arms shipped to customers and reduce its cost of manufacturing.","PeriodicalId":400983,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 15th International Colloquium on Signal Processing & Its Applications (CSPA)","volume":"61 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133156562","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}
