A High Performance Impedance-based Platform for Evaporation Rate Detection

Cross Entropy-Based High-Impedance Fault Detection Algorithm for Distribution Networks

The low fault current of high-impedance faults (HIFs) is one of the main challenges for the protection of distribution networks. The inability of conventional overcurrent relays in detecting these faults results in electric arc continuity that it causes the fire hazard and electric shock and poses a serious threat to human life and network equipment. This paper presents ​an HIF detection algori...

High Performance Method for Skin Roughness Detection Using Raman Spectroscopy

A Novel High-Performance Liquid Chromatography Method for Detection of Alginate in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Background and Objective: The opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa secrets a capsule-like polysaccharide called alginate which is important for evasion of host defenses, especially in patients with suppressed immunity. Method of alginate determination has an important role in the study of microb...

High Throughput Signature Based Platform for Network Intrusion Detection

In this work we propose the intensive use of embedded memory blocks and logic blocks of the FPGA device for signature matching. In our approach we arrange signatures in memory arrays (MA) of embedded memory blocks, so that every signature is matched in one clock cycle. The matching logic is shared among all the signatures in one MA. In addition, we propose a character recodification method that...

HIGH IMPEDANCE SURFACES BASED ANTENNAS FOR HIGH DATA RATE COMMUNICATIONS AT 40 GHz

Millimeter wave High Impedance Surfaces (HIS) based antennas are designed, fabricated, and characterized for high data rate communications at frequencies around 40GHz. HIS with different finite surface area sizes are used as a ground plane for the microstrip patch antennas to suppress the surface waves. The antenna measurements and full wave electromagnetic simulations demonstrate a wide bandwi...
