Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
The Brillouin backscattered wave was examined in a short-length single-mode fiber at different ambient temperatures using a 1553-nm wavelength laser source. To obtain Brillouin scattering depending on the temperature change in a 95-m long single-mode fiber cable, the Brillouin optical time domain reflectometry (BOTDR) technique was used. In this technique, a 1553 nm wavelength signal was sent from one side of the test fiber. The FC/APC connector was attached to the other end of the test fiber. The temperature parameters of the single-mode fiber cables of different brands and types can be obtained using Brillouin scattering. The Brillouin frequency shift …
Concurrent Optimal Design Of Tcsc And Pss Using Symbiotic Organisms Search Algorithm, Muwaffaq Alomoush
Concurrent Optimal Design Of Tcsc And Pss Using Symbiotic Organisms Search Algorithm, Muwaffaq Alomoush
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
The symbiotic organisms search (SOS), which has been recently introduced, is a robust powerful metaheuristic global optimizer. This nature-inspired algorithm imitates the symbiotic interaction strategies in an ecosystem exercised by organisms involved in interrelationships to survive and reproduce. One of the main beneficial features of the SOS in contrast to many other competent metaheuristic algorithms is that the algorithm does not need any specific algorithm parameters or tuning process. This paper applies the SOS algorithm to simultaneously design optimal controllers of a power system equipped with both a power system stabilizer (PSS) and a thyristor-controlled series compensator (TCSC). The algorithm …

The proposed method is fast and requires few calculations. The convergence of the …
A Model Of Optimal Burst Assembly For Delay Reduction At Ingress Obs Nodes, Viet Minh Nhat Vo, Van Hoa Le, Hoang Son Nguyen
A Model Of Optimal Burst Assembly For Delay Reduction At Ingress Obs Nodes, Viet Minh Nhat Vo, Van Hoa Le, Hoang Son Nguyen
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Burst assembly plays an important role in reducing the end-to-end delay of packets transported through optical burst switching (OBS) networks. Several methods have been proposed to reduce the delay of the packets buffered at ingress OBS nodes. However, these have created significant estimation errors, which result in wasting the reserved bandwidth or increasing the delay of excess packets. In this paper, we propose a model of optimal burst assembly for delay reduction, which minimizes the estimation error, eliminates the excess packets, and decreases the blocking probability of scheduling.

The shifted clocking technique is used to reduce the pipelined PA registers. The wave symmetry technique is applied to store (0: $\pi $/2) of the sine wave. The ROM is partitioned into three four-bit sub-ROMs based on the angular decomposition technique and trigonometric identity. A novel approach of memoryless ROM design technique is proposed and implemented in …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
The torque behavior of an outer-rotor surface-mounted permanent-magnet machine is improved by identifying seven pertinent design variables, including rotor height. The optimal design variables are revealed by analyzing 18 experiments determined by the Taguchi method for the minimum torque ripple, minimum total harmonic distortion of the induced voltage, and maximum average torque. In addition, the optimal design variables are obtained very quickly by using gray relational analysis based on the Taguchi method with the single response of the gray relational grade instead of multiple responses. A considerable amount of multiresponse improvement is achieved according to the results of the two …

The FOPID controller is a generalized form of the PID controller in which the order of integration and differentiation is any real number. It is shown that the proposed controller provides a powerful framework to control the PMBLDC motor. Parameters of the controller are found by using a novel dynamic particle swarm optimization (dPSO) method. The frequency domain pole-zero (p-z) interlacing method is used to approximate the fractional order operator. …

Cavitation Detection In Centrifugal Pumps Using Pressure Time-Domain Features, Pouya Samanipour, Javad Poshtan, Hamed Sadeghi
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Condition monitoring of centrifugal pumps is vital due to their crucial role in industries. One of the most prevalent faults in pumps is cavitation, which can cause mechanical faults or even failure in the pump. In this paper, an approach is suggested to detect cavitation in a centrifugal pump using time-domain analysis of the pressure signal residual. First, pressure and torque signals are obtained using a model of the electro-pump, and then pressure deviation from the pump performance curve is defined as a residual. The residual time-domain features are extracted and applied as inputs to a self-organizing map (SOM) neural …

Fractional-Order Controller Design In Frequency Domain Using An Improved Nonlinear Adaptive Seeker Optimization Algorithm, Mano Ranjan Kumar, Vishwa Deepak, Subhojit Ghosh
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Two nonlinear adaptive versions of the conventional seeker optimization algorithm (SOA) have been proposed for the design of fractional-order controllers using frequency domain specifications. The highly nonlinear and undetermined nature of equations resulting from controller design specifications rules out obtaining a closed-form solution. In this regard, the controller design task has been formulated as an optimization problem and solved using modified variants of the SOA. With the nonlinear adaptation of tuning parameters, the proposed variants of the SOA increase the probability of finding global optima along with improved convergence speed. This has been achieved by incorporating exponential weighting and chaotic …

A Simple Approach To Extract The Unknown Parameters Of Pv Modules, Ahmed Hussein
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
A simple and accurate technique to compute essential parameters needed for electrical characterization of photovoltaic (PV) modules is proposed. A single-diode model of PV modules, including those with series and shunt resistances, is considered accurate and simple. However, PV module datasheets provided by manufacturers provide current-voltage ($I$-$V)$ characteristics as well as the values of selected parameters at standard test conditions (STC), i.e. solar radiation of 1000 W/m$^{2}$, air temperature of 25 $^{\circ}$C, and air mass AM = 1.5. Consequently, important parameters such as series resistance ($R_{s})$, shunt resistance ($R_{sh})$, photocurrent ($I_{ph})$, and diode reverse-saturation current ($I_{o})$ are not provided by …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this paper, a novel microstrip diplexer with tunable bandwidths and switchable channels is presented by using dual-mode square loop resonators (DMSLRs). Two resonators at different electrical lengths are coupled to input and output ports with lumped capacitors, and the isolation between the output ports is optimized by means of these capacitors. In order to obtain tunable bandwidth in each channel, varactor diodes are located at the orthogonal corners of the proposed resonators. In addition, the proposed resonators have reference patch elements at the lateral arms to provide convenience of varactor diode capacitances, such as perturbation elements. Depending on the …

A Novel And Realistic Hybrid Downlink-Uplink Coupled/Decoupled Access Scheme For 5g Hetnets, Nadeem Sial, Junaid Ahmed
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Cell association in present day heterogeneous networks (HetNets) is still based on the technique used by homogeneous cellular networks despite power and coverage area disparities of network nodes. In ongoing policy, both uplink (UL) and downlink (DL) associations are coupled based on DL characteristics, which introduces UL-DL asymmetry and cell load imbalances. Recently, decoupled cell association, also known as downlink-uplink decoupling (DUDe), has been introduced in 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) Release 12 to improve uplink performance, load balancing, and cell capacity. In DUDe, characteristics of both DL and UL channels can be considered. By using this concept, various theoretical …
Analysis And Design Of An Invisibility Cloak Based On Transformation Optics At Microwave Frequencies, Maryam Bayati, Masood Omoomi
Analysis And Design Of An Invisibility Cloak Based On Transformation Optics At Microwave Frequencies, Maryam Bayati, Masood Omoomi
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Invisibility cloaks can be constructed with electromagnetic metamaterials. In this paper, structural metamaterials are used to design an invisibility cloak. To this end, transformation optics is used to design electromagnetic parameters. These parameters are selected so that when we excite the cloak its presence does not perturb radiated fields. Therefore, we formulate the electric field both at the inner and outer parts of the cloak, when the excitation source is placed both inside and outside, and we show that the scattered fields will be suppressed due to its presence. Finally, simulation results verify that the invisibility cloak is well designed …

An Adaptive Clustering Segmentation Algorithm Based On Fcm, Jun Yang, Yun-Sheng Ke, Mao-Zheng Wang
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
The cluster number and the initial clustering centers must be reasonably set before the analysis of clustering in most cases. Traditional clustering segmentation algorithms have many shortcomings, such as high reliance on the specially established initial clustering center, tendency to fall into the local maximum point, and poor performance with multithreshold values. To overcome these defects, an adaptive fuzzy C-means segmentation algorithm based on a histogram (AFCMH), which synthesizes both main peaks of the histogram and optimized Otsu criterion, is proposed. First, the main peaks of the histogram are chosen by operations like histogram smoothing, merging of adjacent peaks, and …

Two-Bit Transform Using Local Binary Pattern Method For Low-Complexity Block Motion Estimation, Aysun Taşyapi Çelebi̇
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Low bit-depth representation-based motion estimation approaches have been drawing considerable attention recently, mainly because of their small hardware footprint. In this paper, a new two-bit transform using a local binary pattern (LBP) for low-complexity motion estimation is proposed. The proposed approach utilizes the LBP method to obtain two-bit representations of video frames in the binarization process. Video frames are transformed into their low bit-depth representations by the LBP and then a motion estimation process is carried out using these binary frames. A Boolean exclusive-OR operation is used to calculate the number of nonmatching points metric instead of the conventional sum …
Lifetime Maximization Of Wireless Sensor Networks With Sink Costs, Muhammed Emre Keski̇n
Lifetime Maximization Of Wireless Sensor Networks With Sink Costs, Muhammed Emre Keski̇n
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Balanced distribution of the energy load of the sensors is important for the elongation of wireless sensor network (WSN) lifetimes. There are four main WSN design issues affecting the energy distribution among the sensors: sensor locations, sensor activity schedules, mobile sink routes, and data flow routes. Many studies try to make energy usage more efficient through optimal determination of these design issues. However, only very few studies handle these four design issues in a combined manner. Additionally, the cost of the sinks is neglected in all studies. In this study, a mixed integer linear program is first proposed, in which …
