Two-Group Decodable Distributed Differential Space-Time Code For Wireless Relay Networks Based On Sast Codes, Obada Abdallah, Ammar Abu Hudrouss

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Space-time code can be implemented in wireless relay networks when all relays cooperate to generate the code at the receiver. In this case, it is called distributed space-time code. If the channel response changes very quickly, the idea of differential space-time coding is needed to overcome the difficulty of updating the channel state information at the receiver. As a result, the transmitted signal can be demodulated without any knowledge of the channel state information at the relays or the receiver. In this paper, development of new low decoding complexity distributed differential space-time codes is considered. The developed codes are designed …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Distributed generation (DG) is widely used to minimize total power losses in distribution networks. However, one of the problems of DG in a grid system is reverse current flow (RCF), which is when the DG output becomes greater than the connected load. Therefore, this paper proposes a multiobjective artificial bee colony (MOABC) algorithm to determine the optimal network reconfiguration for reducing total RCF in DG. The proposed algorithm is tested on 33-bus radial distribution systems in two different scenarios, i.e. base case and with 50% load. The proposed technique can reduce reverse current by up to 93%; however, the total …

Robust Local Parameter Estimator Based On Least Absolute Value Estimator, Volkan Özdemi̇r, Murat Göl

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Changes in weather conditions such as temperature and humidity, miscommunication between the control center and circuit breaker transducers and tap changers, and inaccurate manufacturing data may cause parameter errors. Because of incorrect parameters, the state estimator may provide biased state estimates, which may lead to many serious economic and operational results. In order to prevent that, one must identify and correct those parameter errors. This work proposes a local parameter estimator based on the least absolute value (LAV) estimator, which is known to be robust against bad measurements, i.e. measurements with gross error. Considering the increasing number of phasor measurement …

Distinct Degradation Processes In Zno Varistors: Reliability Analysis And Modeling With Accelerated Ac Tests, Hadi Yadavari, Mustafa Altun

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In this study, we investigate different degradation mechanisms of zinc oxide (ZnO) varistors. We propose a model that shows how Vv (defined as DC varistor voltage when a 1-mA DC current is applied) changes with time for different stress levels. For this purpose, accelerated degradation tests are applied for different AC current levels and voltage values are then measured. Different from the common practice in the literature that considers degradation with only decreasing Vv values, we demonstrate either an increasing or a decreasing trend in the Vv parameter. The tests show a decreasing trend in Vv for current levels above …


Unsupervised Learning Of Allomorphs In Turkish, Burcu Can Jan 2017

Unsupervised Learning Of Allomorphs In Turkish, Burcu Can

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

One morpheme may have several surface forms that correspond to allomorphs. In English, ed and $d$ are surface forms of the past tense morpheme, and $s$, es, and ies are surface forms of the plural or present tense morpheme. Turkish has a large number of allomorphs due to its morphophonemic processes. One morpheme can have tens of different surface forms in Turkish. This leads to a sparsity problem in natural language processing tasks in Turkish. Detection of allomorphs has not been studied much because of its difficulty. For example, tü and di are Turkish allomorphs (i.e. past tense morpheme), but …

The major issues in most watermarking schemes are security, reliability, and robustness against attacks. To achieve these objectives in a watermarking algorithm, the selection of a scale factor to embed the watermark into the host image is a challenging problem. In this paper, a block singular value decomposition (SVD)-based reliable, robust, secure, and fast watermarking scheme is proposed that uses particle swarm optimization (PSO) in the selection of the scale factor. SVD is applied here on the nonoverlapping blocks of LL wavelet subbands. Selected singular values of these blocks are modified with the pixel values of the watermark image. Selected …

In the proposed approach, the most relevant features are identified by ranking each feature with the coefficient obtained through ELM divided by CV. The achieved accuracies and computational costs, obtained with the use of features selected via the proposed approach in 9 classification and 26 regression benchmark data sets, were compared to those obtained with all features, as well as those obtained with …


An Rc-Triggered Esd Clamp For High-Voltage Bcd Cmos Processes, Fati̇h Koçer Jan 2017

An Rc-Triggered Esd Clamp For High-Voltage Bcd Cmos Processes, Fati̇h Koçer

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

This paper presents a novel RC-triggered, field-effect transistor (FET)-based power clamp that can be used in high-voltage complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) processes. A simple two-stage design provides a fast trigger while keeping the clamp transistor on for much longer than the triggering duration without the need for an additional digital latching circuit. As the presented technique does not require any digital circuits, it is especially useful in bipolar-CMOS-DMOS (BCD) processes, where the implementation of digital blocks is difficult due to the limited gate-to-source voltage of the laterally diffused metal oxide semiconductor (LDMOS) transistors. The proposed architecture is implemented in …

In this paper, an evolutionary uncertain data-clustering algorithm, E-MFDBSCAN, and a prediction model using E-MFDBSCAN for uncertain data are proposed. The proposed methodology may be successfully applied to noisy gene expression data. In this methodology, global patterns of time series data can be extracted using our evolutionary clustering approach. These patterns are used to infer future projections. In the proposed methodology, an autoregressive time series …

Relaxation Rate And Polarization Charge Density Model For Aln/Al$_{X}$Ga$_{1 - X}$N/Aln Heterostructures, Nagarajan Sivarajan, Reeba Korah, Mariya Kalavathy Ganamani

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

This work describes the strain-relaxation--dependent carrier concentration ($n_{s})$ profile model using spontaneous and piezoelectric polarization for AlN/Al$_{x}$Ga$_{1 - x}$N/AlN HEMTs in all mole fraction ($x)$ interpolations. As $x$ varies, the Aluminum Gallium Nitride (AlGaN) channel shows strain relaxation with the Aluminum Nitride (AlN) barrier. The degree of relaxation is modeled from AlN to GaN regions in the channel. It shows that the AlN barrier and buffer relaxation and strain recovery occurs due to the gradual crystal quality degradation from barrier/buffer to the channel interface. These combination devices show less drain current degradation with temperature variation from 300 K to 573 …
