A novel low-cost microwave sensor system is proposed for accurate sensing of the real relative permittivity materials under test (MUT). The solution eliminates need using advanced measurement devices such as vector network analyzer (VNA) characterization. built on a software-defined radio platform. suitable two-stage frequency estimation approach was developed estimating shift resonator associa...

Abstract: A multi-variable Golden-Section adaptive controller is proposed for the tracking control of robotic manipulators with unknown dynamics. With a small sample time, the unknown dynamics of the robotic manipulator are denoted equivalently by a characteristic model of a 2-order multivariable time-varying difference equation. The coefficients of the characteristic model change slowly with t...

A mathematical model for ATC based on optimal power flow was built under the static security constraints, where the maximum of all load nodes in receiving area was considered as aim function. In view of the defects of slow convergence and low accuracy in ATC optimization algorithms, a chaos cloud particle swarm optimization algorithm based on golden section criteria (CCGPSO) was proposed. This ...

In this paper, we propose an extension to GridFTP that optimizes its performance by dynamically adjusting the number of parallel TCP connections. GridFTP has been used as a data transfer protocol to effectively transfer a large volume of data in Grid computing. GridFTP supports a feature called parallel data transfer that improves throughput by establishing multiple TCP connections in parallel....

The extraction and identification of ECG (electrocardiogram) signal characteristic parameters are the basis of ECG analysis and diagnosis. The fast and precise detection of QRS complexes is very important in ECG signal analysis, for it is the precondition of the correlative parameters calculation and diagnosis. In this paper, the modulus maxima of wavelet transform was applied to the QRS comple...

This paper shows the analytical performance of maximum power point tracking for a photovoltaic system. In contemplation for photovoltaic (PV) systems to escalate their efficiency of power generation, it is mandatory to locate the Maximum power point (MPP) under all possible illumination conditions. The current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of PV devices are non-linear in nature, thereby the , M...

This thesis addresses problems of free-form object matching for the point vs. NURBS surface and the NURBS surface vs. NURBS surface cases, and its application to copyright protection. Two new methods are developed to solve a global and partial matching problem with no a priori information on correspondence or initial transformation and no scaling effects, namely the KH and the umbilic method. T...
