Unlike other approaches that simply focus on detecting peaks and valleys after filtering, our research concentrates on recovering most of the components of the PPG pulse curve, as these reveal highly important information about cardiovascular health status, and which is essential for a proper diagnosis. To record PPG signals, a photoplethysmography system was placed on both hands of the subjects. On one hand, a three-axis accelerometer was also attached to capture the myokinetic motion, while the other hand remained stationary, allowing the PPG system to record a motion-free signal. After capturing the PPG signals with and without motion, we conducted an analysis by calculating the spectral coherence of the contaminated and recovered signals after adaptive filtering. We compared noisy PPG signals with the reference signal (myokinetic motion-free PPG signal). Based on the spectral coherence criterion, the affine projection algorithm and the variable step-size affine projection algorithm were found to be the most effective for filtering a PPG signal contaminated by myokinetic noise, achieving similarity scores of 94.25% and 94.67%, respectively, between the filtered signal and the motion-free pulse signal.","PeriodicalId":55024,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Latin America Transactions","volume":"23 4","pages":"274-284"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10930368","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143637916","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Increasing their operating frequencies would result in higher energy consumption for the chip as a whole. Thus, in this scenario, multicore and manycore chips appear to be a viable solution. However, distributing mono8 application or multi-application tasks on these devices is not trivial in practice. It is necessary to consider heat dissipation effects throughout the system while simultaneously ensuring fault tolerance and good load balancing. Although there is not yet a considerable number of works in the literature addressing the allocation of multi-applications in NoCs, there are many works focusing on mapping mono-applications. Therefore, this article proposes a multi-objective mapping model that focuses on performance metrics and heat distribution for multi-applications in manycores with NoCs, aiming to contribute in this direction. The results found are compared with the state-of-the-art algorithm in this scenario, showing promise for the field, with improvements of more than 30% in latency and 38% in fault tolerance when all applications are taken into account.","PeriodicalId":55024,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Latin America Transactions","volume":"23 4","pages":"323-328"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10930369","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143637879","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While the Internet of Things (IoT) offers a suitable solution for monitoring and notifying about air quality in smart campuses, it is of paramount importance that these notifications occur in real-time to ensure information reaches users with minimal latency. This paper presents an architecture for collecting, storing, and notifying about atmospheric pollutants in a smart campus and analyzes the use of Real-Time Operating Systems (RTOS) for managing the system. The evaluation focuses on IoT technologies, represented by the end node, gateway, and cloud server. The experimental results show that using RTOS reduces the average transmission interval by 37.5% and achieves higher transmission and reception throughput compared to non-real-time operating systems. For instance, in a monitored location, the transmission and reception throughput reached approximately 178.23 and 164.18 with RTOS, compared to 110.97 and 99.41 without RTOS, respectively.","PeriodicalId":55024,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Latin America Transactions","volume":"23 4","pages":"266-273"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10930347","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143637971","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The rise of Industry 4.0 and the advancement of artificial intelligence are creating new opportunities and challenges for industries. This study investigates the feasibility of substituting a traditional programmable logic controller (PLC) with a neural network-based control system for discrete event management within a robotic cell. The research assesses the feasibility of this replacement, analyzing the associated challenges, limitations, and advantages compared to traditional methods. Digital manufacturing software is employed for simulating and validating the proposed model through a Virtual Comissioning (VC). The control system of the proposed model utilizes artificial neural networks, trained using data derived from a Boolean logic model. The results indicate that it is possible to swiftly train an artificial neural network (ANN) to take over cell control. This approach opens up the possibility of implementing low-cost hardware, aligning the system with the concepts of Industry 4.0. Additionally, the virtual modeling conducted using digital manufacturing software paves the way for a future implementation of a digital twin. Findings indicate that the neural network control approach is feasible and offers operational advantages over traditional programming methods.","PeriodicalId":55024,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Latin America Transactions","volume":"23 4","pages":"301-311"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10930373","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143637963","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Air transportation is a complex infrastructure system, in which each airline represents a different layer. Adding the weight of interactions combined with a multilayer approach can make the network description even more detailed than a single-layer analysis, because important network features emerge from the multilayer character. The multilayer approach for complex networks is yet new in the literature. As far as the authors know, there are no studies yet applying multiplex network to analyze domestic and international Brazilian air network to improve the understanding of complex systems and investigate macroeconomic effects of the economic recession and COVID-19 pandemic in the air network. The objective of this paper is to evaluate changes in the Brazilian Air Transportation network from 2019 to 2020, before and during the COVID-19 pandemic, using topology measures for network characterization. We compared the network topology and evaluated COVID-19 impact on airports under concession and on regional aviation, also comparing with the aggregated approach. Results show a network concentration during this period in hub airports, reduced connectivity and reduced density resulting in a sparser network. The airlines strategies were different over this period and the multilayer approach changed the importance ranking of airports compared with the aggregated approach. These analyses indicate an opportunity to improve regional air transportation and the need to enhance regional airports versatility.","PeriodicalId":55024,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Latin America Transactions","volume":"23 4","pages":"294-300"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10930377","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143637987","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposed converter is designed to operate with a duty ratio less than 50% to ensures reduced losses and less component stress This salient feature makes the proposed converter unique among the other converters reported so far. By reducing voltage stress on switches and diodes, the design permits the use of lower-rated components and reduces the cost. The common ground configuration helps to reduce dv/dt issue. The IGSIDSC is analyzed in steady state with consideration of parasitic resistance for all components of the converter. Further, the simulation results are validated through experimental investigation using the prototype developed in laboratory for the power rating of 200 W. Also, the investigations on steady-state performance and dynamic behavior of the experimental prototype effectively demonstrate the successful operation of the IGSIDSC.","PeriodicalId":55024,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Latin America Transactions","volume":"23 4","pages":"339-352"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10930372","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143637966","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
