Abstract

The main goal of utilizing Selective Harmonic Elimination (SHE) techniques in Multilevel Inverters (MLI) is to produce a high-quality output voltage signal with a minimum Total Harmonic Distortion (THD). By calculating N switching angles, SHE technique can eliminate (N-1) low order odd harmonics of the output voltage waveform. To optimized and obtained these switching angles, N of nonlinear equations should be solved using a numerical method. Modulation index (m) and duty cycle play a big role in selective harmonic elimination technique to obtain a minimum harmonic distortion and desired fundamental component voltage. In this paper, a novel Optimization Harmonic Elimination Technique (OHET) based on SHE scheme is proposed to re-mitigate Total Harmonic Distortion. The performance of seven-level H-bridge cascade inverter is evaluated using PSIM and validated experimentally by developing a purposely built microcontroller-based printed circuit board.

Abstract

The interdigital sensor has been implemented in various field of applications such as microwave device, chemical sensor and biological sensor. This work describes the design and fabrication of an interdigital sensor (IDS) design that has the potential of estimating blood glucose levels using capacitive measurements. The IDS was first designed using theoretical equations and later was optimized by using CST Microwave Studio®. The electrode widths of the sensor were varied from 0.5mm to 0.7mm and the S11 reflection characteristics were simulated.  Upon completion of simulations, the sensor was fabricated using copper clad FR4 boards. The fabricated sensors were measured using a vector network analyzer (VNA) and produced resonance frequencies of 2.02, 2.11 and 2.14 GHz. The highest Q obtained was 11.72 from the 2.11 GHz sensor.

Abstract

This paper has introduced the concept of UWB antenna in array arrangements.The four elements of Balance Antipodal Vivaldi Antenna (BAVA) has been used for planar and h-plane array configuration in this research. Each single element of BAVA Antenna is printed on the glass-reinforced epoxy laminate material (FR4) along an overall thickness of 1.57mm and εr = 4.3 respectively. The optimized measurement of each particular element is 60.75mm x 66mm approximatel.Further the parametric evaluation of four BAVA elements in different planes has been observed in this paper. The placement of array elements has almost coverd entire UWB frequency range and appropriate reflection coefficient which is better than -10dB has been established in both combinations.According to simulation results, the array elements in planar arrangement presenting a suitable reflection and works well at 3.2GHz frequency while the arrangement in h-plane the array elements works well at 7GHz of frequency. In planar arrangement, the operating frequency of antenna elements is shifting as results of the distance among inter elements which increase in wavelength. In h-plane arrangement an antenna elements generate additional gain up to 10.2 dB with good radiation patterns as compared to the planar plane. The CSTMWS simulation software has been used for antenna structural design and parametric verification.

Abstract

The switching control circuit in a DC to AC inverter is the critical part that is applied to control the power transistors insulated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBTs) and metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFETs). This paper proposes a high-performance and low-cost pulse width modulation (PWM) control signal with a 120º phase shift circuit for a two-level three-phase inverter. Typically, a PWM signal with a 120º phase shift for three-phase inverters is generated with the help of analogue components with more complicated designs and power losses or by using a microcontroller with necessary programming or coding. The proposed solution is to design a 120° three-phase shift circuit based on D flip-flops and the 555-timer to generate the clock signal for the flip-flop input in addition to the dead-time control circuit. The proposed circuit is controlled by one square wave signal as an input signal to generate six output PWM control signals at 50 Hz to operate six MOSFETs in the three-phase inverter. Simulation results in power simulation software PSIM and PROTEUS simulation tools are used to verify the proposed circuit. Hardware implementation of the proposed circuit and three-phase inverter is carried out to validate the performance of the proposed design.

Abstract

Crowd management has attracted serious attention under the prevailing pandemic conditions of COVID-19, emphasizing that sick persons do not become a source of virus transmission. World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines include maintaining a safe distance and wearing a mask in gatherings as part of standard operating procedures (SOP), considered thus far the most effective preventive measures to protect against COVID-19. Several methods and strategies have been used to construct various face detection and social distance detection models. In this paper, a deep learning model is presented to detect people without masks and those not keeping a safe distance to contain the virus. It also counts individuals who violate the SOP. The proposed model employs the Single Shot Multi-box Detector as a feature extractor, followed by Spatial Pyramid Pooling (SPP) to integrate the extracted features to improve the model's detecting capabilities. The MobilenetV2 architecture as a framework for the classifier makes the model highly light, fast, and computationally efficient, allowing it to be employed in embedded devices to do real-time mask and social distance detection, which is the sole objective of this research. This paper's technique yields an accuracy score of 99% and reduces the loss to 0.04%. Doi: 10.28991/esj-2021-SPER-14 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

Because of their mortality rate, diabetes and COVID-19 are serious diseases. Moreover, people with diabetes are at a higher risk of developing COVID-19 complications. This article therefore proposes a single, non-invasive system that can help people with diabetes and COVID-19 to monitor their health parameters by measuring oxygen saturation (SPO2), heart rate, and body temperature. This is in contrast to other pulse oximeters and previous work reported in the literature. A Max30102 sensor, consisting of two light-emitting diodes (LEDs), can serve as a transmission spectrum to enable three synchronous parameter measurements. Hence, the Max30102 sensor facilitates identification of the relationship between COVID-19 and diabetes in a cost-effective manner. Fifty subjects (20 healthy, 20 diabetic, and 10 with COVID-19), aged 18-61 years, were recruited to provide data on heart rate, body temperature, and oxygen saturation, measured in a variety of activities and scenarios. The results showed accuracy of ±97% for heart rate, ±98% for body temperature, and ±99% for oxygen saturation with an enhanced time efficiency of 5-7 seconds in contrast to a commercialized pulse oximeter, which took 10-12 seconds. The results were then compared with those of commercially available pulse oximetry (Oxitech Pulse Oximeter) and a thermometer (Medisana Infrared Thermometer). These results revealed that uncontrolled diabetes can be as dangerous as COVID-19 in terms of high resting heart rate and low oxygen saturation. Doi: 10.28991/esj-2022-SPER-04 Full Text: PDF
