Its main job is copying DNA segments. Micro-PCR is the term referring to the small-scale version of this device. It has several advantages including the minute reagent consumption and faster response times. One of the challenges in micro-PCR technology is creating uniform-temperature regions. Thin film heaters have been used in literature to create the needed temperature zones. In this work, printed circuit board (PCB) technology has been used to create meander-shaped micro heaters on FR-4 substrate. Two separate temperature zones have been designed on the substrate. In order to improve temperature uniformity in these areas, a uniform copper layer has been designed on the back of the substrate. Thanks to the double-sided PCB technology, having a uniform copper layer on the back of the substrate is trivial. To study the effect of the copper layer on temperature uniformity, a steady state thermal model has been developed using Ansys®Workbench. Based on the simulation results, the created model can successfully predict temperature distribution in these heat generation areas. Besides, it is shown that the copper layer will lead to more uniformity in temperature distribution.","PeriodicalId":6683,"journal":{"name":"2019 27th Iranian Conference on Electrical Engineering (ICEE)","volume":"31 1","pages":"280-284"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75886603","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}

Considering the fact that multimedia applications are known to be high energy consumers and since the battery lifetime is an important factor for mobile users, multimedia wireless communication is the most challenging issue in the network selection. Enhanced power-friendly access network selection (E-POFANS) has been introduced to maintain an acceptable user perceived quality by selecting the network that consumes minimum energy. In this paper, to improve E-POFANS, the networks' behavior in the past is considered as a metric for network selection. Also, a mechanism to monitor the energy consumption of the mobile device is devised to guarantee that the multimedia stream is played the whole lot before the battery lifetime is finished. This solution achieves about 29% energy saving in comparison with E-POFANS. Through different simulations, we show that the proposed solutions improve the energy consumption and user's throughput, considerably.","PeriodicalId":6683,"journal":{"name":"2019 27th Iranian Conference on Electrical Engineering (ICEE)","volume":"1 1","pages":"1408-1412"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80206477","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 total size of the antenna is 49.5 × 57 mm2and it operates in a bandwidth of almost five octaves, from 1.3GHz to 44GHz. The introduced technique will result in ultra-wide bandwidth while having a small size compare to other works. To achieve this, first, a minimum-size conventional antipodal vivaldi antenna (CAVA) is designed, with respect to the tradeoff between the lowest operating frequency and the substrate dielectric constant. Then, the low end operating frequency is extended and the gain over the entire frequency bandwidth was enhanced, by adding two circular-shape loads (CL) to the CAVA. The reflection coefficient of the resulting CL-AVA is then improved, by applying a tapered triangular corrugation at the edges (TTCE) of the circular sections. The resulting TTCE-AVA is manufactured and tested. The simulation and experimental results demonstrate excellent performance in an ultra-wide frequency band from 1.3 to 44 GHz.","PeriodicalId":6683,"journal":{"name":"2019 27th Iranian Conference on Electrical Engineering (ICEE)","volume":"109 1","pages":"1637-1642"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80528522","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}

Large quantities of labeled training data are needed to build an accurate hierarchical classification model. However, labeled samples are difficult and very time-consuming to obtain. On the other hand, due to the expansion of the Internet, plenty of unlabeled documents are available. In this paper, we propose a top-down method to hierarchically categorize partially labeled documents (having labeled documents only at first few levels of the hierarchy) using “local classifier per parent node” approach. We utilize a classification algorithm for the parent nodes with training data available. We use a labeling strategy for other parent nodes that do not have labeled data to be able to train a classifier. In our knowledge, this is the first study on hierarchical Persian text categorization, and our experiments show that the proposed approach achieves an acceptable performance.","PeriodicalId":6683,"journal":{"name":"2019 27th Iranian Conference on Electrical Engineering (ICEE)","volume":"53 1","pages":"1951-1955"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89840175","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}
