A Novel Compact Defected Ground Structure And Its Application In Mutual Coupling Reduction Of A Microstrip Antenna, Soroush Veisee, Mahsa Keshavarz Hedayati, Shahrooz Asadi

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In this paper, a novel compact T-shape defected ground structure (DGS) is proposed in order to reduce the mutual coupling between elements in a microstrip antenna array structure. The proposed DGS has considerable advantages compared to an H-shaped DGS. As is known, DGS insertion is a common problem in microstrip antenna array structures. However, the proposed T-shaped structure is more compact so it could be suitable for a compact microstrip array antenna. The T-shaped DGS is about 24% more compact than the H-shaped one. However, the most important novelty of our work is reducing mutual coupling both in the E-plane …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In every power system there are consumer areas away from traditional power networks. Existing grid expansion can always be treated as one of the ways of powering them over long transmission and distribution lines. This is often characterized by significant transmission losses, as well as significant investments, depending on the distance and the infrastructure development. On the other hand, there are cases when these consumers are not connected to the power system and use alternative methods of supply. For that matter, possible solutions may use locally available energy sources. In this paper, comparative analyses between independent power supply through particular …

Time Series Adapted Supervised Fuzzy Discretization: An Application To Ecg Signals, Umut Orhan Jan 2016

Time Series Adapted Supervised Fuzzy Discretization: An Application To Ecg Signals, Umut Orhan

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In this study, a new method called supervised fuzzy discretization (SFD), which can be used without having expertise on data, is proposed for classifying time series datasets. Because an ECG signal has a partially stationary characteristic, its classification process is more difficult than it would be for completely stationary signals. On the other hand, because the method proposed can be used without having expertise on the data, comprehensive data like ECG signals are enough to introduce one such method. To prove the efficacy of the SFD, RR intervals selected from a common ECG database are used in the classification experiments. …

The processing time of tasks in all jobs and their precedence-constraint times are governed by independent probability distributions. The performance of the proposed stochastic algorithm is compared with SHEFT and ECS based on randomly generated batches of different sizes. The experimental study reveals that the proposed …


Assessment Of The Maximum Loadability Point Of A Power System After Third Zone Of Distance Relay Corrective Actions, Zahra Moravej, Sajad Bagheri Jan 2016

Assessment Of The Maximum Loadability Point Of A Power System After Third Zone Of Distance Relay Corrective Actions, Zahra Moravej, Sajad Bagheri

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In this paper, the operation of a system and distance relay is improved during voltage instability by using an improved strategy. After detecting the voltage instability, the third zone is blocked. However, the system is prone to voltage collapse. Shunt capacitor compensation and a load shedding scheme can be used to protect the system from voltage collapse conditions. Load shedding plans can be performed based on a reduction in the power flow in the line where the relay is located. The reason is that the minimum eigenvalue of the load flow Jacobian (reduced and unreduced Jacobians) is increased and the …

Evaluation Of Hearing Loss Simulation Using A Speech Intelligibility Index, Umut Ariöz, Banu Günel

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Hearing loss simulation (HLS) is a useful tool for hearing studies, since finding large numbers of hearing-impaired volunteers with various levels of hearing loss is usually a problem. Correct simulation of the hearing impaired ear should take into account different suprathreshold effects, such as reduced frequency selectivity, reduced audibility, and loudness recruitment. Although these effects can be implemented using various algorithms, so far they have not been evaluated in detail taking into account subject dependency, effect of noisy environment, and phonetic characteristics of test words. In this study, for the purpose of evaluating the HLS, a speech intelligibility index (SII) …

Turkish Journal of Earth Sciences

The oxygen and carbon isotope compositions of carbonate samples from the carbonatite-like dyke of the Madenska River complex at the Kriva Lakavica section, samples of calcite skarns from the Damjan Fe-ore deposit and the Sasa Pb-Zn ore deposit, and samples of marbles from the Pohorje Mountains were analyzed to provide critical evidence in favor of the magmatic or sedimentary origin of this carbonatite-like dyke. We suggest that the carbonatite-like dyke is not a "normal" carbonatite, but instead represents melted carbonates, which can be associated with an unexposed, deep-seated, causative magmatic body. This dyke has a fluidal texture and carries xenoliths …
