The purpose of this paper is to present the altitude control algorithm for quadrotor to be able to fly at a particular altitude. Several previous researchers have conducted studies on quadrotor altitude by using PID control but there are problems in the overshoot and oscillation. To optimize the control, tunning on PID algorithm must be first conducted to determine proportional and derivative constants. Hence, the paper presents altitude control modification by using PID-like fuzzy without tuning. The PID algorithm is a control algorithm for linear systems. While, system to be controlled is a non-linear, so that linearization is needed by using equilibrium. The proposed algorithm is a modification of the PID algorithm used as an altitude control which enables quadrotor to be stable when hovering. The algorithm used is not PID algorithm with tuning using fuzzy, but this is a single input single output (SISO) control PID-like fuzzy linear programming. The result of the research shows that quadrotor can hover in a rapid raise time, steady state and settling time without performing overshoot and oscillation.

Internet of Things or widely known as IOT makes smart objects become active participants in the communication process between objects and their environment. IoT services that utilize Internet connection require solutions to a new problem: security and privacy. Smart objects and machine-to-machine communications in IOT now become interesting research, including that related to security. Privacy, which is a safe condition in which object is free from interference from other objects, is one of the important aspects in IOT. Privacy can be implemented using various ways for examples by applying encryption algorithms, restrictions on access to data or users, as well as implementing rules or specific policy. Trustable object selection is one technique to improve privacy. The process of selecting a trustable object can be done based on past activities or trust history of the object, also by applying a threshold value to determine whether an object is "trusted" or not. Some researchers have studied this approach. In this study, the selection processes of trustable objects are calculated using Modified Ant Colony algorithm. The simulation was performed and resulted in declining graphic trend but stabilized in certain trust value.

The switched reluctance machine against its several merits such as simplicity, robustness, less cost manufacturing and large speed still suffers from its undesirable torque ripple and acoustic noise. Compared to different candidates of hybrid and electric vehicle engine, the frequency of use of SRM in traction drives is improved with the different optimizing torque oscillation solutions. Most of studies used the generic or specific model of switched reluctance machine in the Simulink library (6/4,8/6 and 10/8). Despite, a new non linear model simply implemented in Simulink tool usinga static finite element analysis a previous study is used in this work. Hence, a 12/8 non linear SRM drive system is simulated using MATLAB toolbox tested with an intelligent controller (FLC) in order to minimize the torque ripple of an oriented starter –alternator application of a hybrid vehicle.

In recent years various methods has been proposed for speech recognition and removing noise from the speech signal became an important issue. In this paper a fuzzy system has been proposed for speech recognition that can obtain accurate results using classification of speech signals with “Ant Colony” algorithm. First, speech samples are given to the fuzzy system to obtain a pattern for every set of signals that can be helpful for dimensionality reduction, easier checking of outcome and better recognition of signals. Then, the “ACO” algorithm is used to cluster these signals and determine a cluster for each input signal. Also, with this method we will be able to recognize noise and consider it in a separate cluster and remove it from the input signal. Results show that the accuracy for speech detection and noise removal is desirable.

The primary task for IoT-based hyper-connectivity communications lies in the development of direct communications technique among IoT devices in RPL (Routing Protocol for Low-Power and Lossy Networks) environment without the aid from infras such as access points, base stations etc. In a low-power and lossy wireless network, IoT devices and routers cannot keep the original path toward the destination since they have the limited memory, except for a limited number of the default router information.. Different from the previous light-weight routing protocols focusing on the reduction of the control messages, the proposed scheme provides the light-weight IPv6 address auto-configuration, IPv6 neighbor discovery and routing protocol in a IoT capable infra-less wireless networks with the bloom filer and enhanced rank concepts. And for the first time we evaluate our proposed scheme based on the modeling of various probability distributions in the IoT environments with the lossy wireless link. Specifically, the proposed enhanced RPL based light-weight routing protocol improves the robustness with the multi-paths locally established based on the enhanced rank concepts even though lossy wireless links are existed. We showed the improvements of the proposed scheme up to 40% than the RPL based protocol.

Social learning network analysis is a potential approach to analyze the behaviour of students in collaborative work. However, most of the previous works focus on asynchronous discussion forum as the learning activity. Very few of them are trying to analyze the students' collaborative work while using wiki e-learning. This paper proposes the degree centrality and eigenvector method for identifying the collaborative work of students while in wiki e-learning. The log data of the Moodle e-learning system is observed that records the students' activities and actions while using wiki. The result shows that there is a close similarity between the degree centrality and the eigenvector. The result also reveals the students who obtain high outdegree values. Furthermore, Agent_1 and Agent_12 represent the students who obtained high outdegree values, which mean these two nodes are acting as source providers that able to supply information and knowledge through the network. This result also strengthened by value of closeness and betweenness where Agent_1 and Agent_12 leading on this measurement. The high closeness value of Agent_1 and Agent_12 will lead into fast spreading information since they have fastest route and has the most direct route to the other node inside the network, thus collaborative work is easy to be initialized by these Agents. This work has successfully identified collaborative work of student. This finding is believed to bring enormous benefit on the e-learning system improvement in the future.

One of the several failure cases in electric vehicle could be occured at the Lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery connectors when loaded by high current. This failure caused by bad contact of connectors so that the contact resistance increase and lead to high power losses, overheating, and it can even cause a fire hazard. This paper presents a thermal distributions of Li-ion battery connectors on different coating material in relation to the value of contact resistance. There were two test samples of modeled: copper connection without coating and copper connection with silver coating. Each sample was loaded by the DC current of 350A, and temperature at the connection was measured until steady state condition reached and simulated by Solidwork software. The results show that the temperature at the inside contact area was higher than the outside contact area of connection that appears caused by higher of the contact resistance. Both measurement and simulation results have same tendency that copper connection with silver coating having lower contact resistance, lower maximum temperature, and lower losses about 32 % than copper connection without coating. Silver coating can be considered as other alternative to prevent overheating, high losses, and failure in Li-ion battery connector.

The development of computer based sign language recognition system, for enabling communication with hearing impaired people, is an important research area that faces different challenges in the pre-processing stage of image processing, particularly in boundary detection stage. In edge detection, the possibility of achieving high quality images significantly depends on the fitting threshold values, which are generally selected using canny method, and these threshold values may vary, based on the type of images and the applications chosen. This research work presents a novel idea of establishing a hybrid particle swarm optimization algorithm, which is a combination of PSO with the behavioural pattern of cellular organism in canny method, that defines an objective to find optimal threshold values for the implementation of double thresholding hysteresis method, which is viewed as a non-linear complex problem. The attempt to incorporate the model has minimized the problem of quick convergence of PSO algorithm which has improved the detection of broken edges. The efficiency of the proposed algorithm is proved through the experimental observation, done in Tamil sign images to indicate the better performance of canny operator by introducing new variant based PSO.

Highly linear power amplifiers are required for transferring large amount of data for future communication. Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) provides high data rate transmission capability with robustness to radio channel impairments. It has been widely accepted for future communication for different services. But, it suffers from high value of peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR). High value of PAPR drives high power amplifier into its saturation region and causes it to operate in the nonlinear region. In this paper, comparative study of four different PAPR reduction techniques: clipping and filtering (CF), selective mapping method (SLM), partial transmit sequence (PTS) and DFT- spread technique have been done. Mathematical modeling and Matlab simulations have been performed to arrive at the results with 4 QAM modulation format and 1024 number of sub carriers. At 0.01 % of complementary cumulative distribution function (CCDF) significant reduction of 11.3, 3.5, 3.4 and 1.0 dB have been obtained with DFT- spread, SLM, PTS and CF techniques respectively.
