The paper presents an optimal fuzzy logic controller – controlled shunt active power filter (SAPF) used to compensate for harmonic distortion in three-phase systems. A optimal fuzzy logic controller based current controller strategy is used to regulate the filter current and hence ensure harmonic free supply current. The optimal adjustment of the membership functions and normalization gains are realized by using Ant Colony Optimization. Simulations results show the best dynamic behavior and performance control compared with traditional Fuzzy controller. as well as effective in reducing harmonic. The validity of the presented approach in harmonic mitigation is verified via simulation results of the proposed test system under different loading conditions.

A dual-band characteristic of multilayer aperture coupled microstrip log-periodic dipole antenna is studied. Further loading of patches is performed and its effects are investigated. It is a probe fed antenna for impedance matching with 50? coaxial cable. This antenna works well in the frequency range 4.3 GHz to 8.5 GHz. It is basically a low cost, light weight medium gain antenna, which is used for wireless communication. The multilayer microstrip antenna structure involves addition of multiple layers one over the other. When a microstrip antenna is stacked with a superstrate dielectric layer, its properties like resonance frequency, gain and bandwidth are changed, which may affect the system performance. With proper choice of the thickness of substrate and superstrate layers, significant increase in bandwidth and return loss can be achieved for practical applications. This structure uses stacked configuration of three different substrates. One dielectric substrate as a feeding plane, one dielectric substrate as aperture plane and a dielectric substrate as a LPDA. The simulated antenna yields -29.16 dB return loss with 33% bandwidth with a size of 24x26x6mm3. The proposed antennas present an excellent candidate for compact and low-cost microwave integrated systems.

A circuit which accepts two sinusoidal waveforms with phase difference Ø and provides two dc output voltages in which one dc output voltage is proportional to the quadrature component SinØ and the another is proportional to the in phase component CosØ, by position sampling of the reference quadrature waveforms, is described in this letter.

Increasing need for energy and limited fossil resources, increasing environmental pollution resulting from the burning of these resources, the effects of global warming and the greenhouse effects, acid rain and the need to balance the propagation of CO2, all call for the necessity of saving fossil resources and increased attention to the use of renewable energy sources. Wind energy is one of the main types of renewable energies that have always attracted the human mind so that man is always thinking of using this energy in the industry. The human had been used wind to move boats and sailing ships and windmills. In the current situation with regard to the above mentioned terms and economic justification of wind energy compared to other energy sources, wind energy seems to be vital and essential. This article firstly provides an introduction to the field installation locations of wind turbines in the power system and then various methods for predicting wind speed and power of wind farms are expressed. After that Modeling of wind powerhouses are explained. Finally, wind powerhouse modeling methods are fully described and the equations of each model are given.

The studies improved that the temperature has an impact on the PV as well as the solar radiation. In this article, we try to find the relation between the tilt angle and the temperature resulted. The practical experiments were conducted in the lab using a solar cell simulator to find this relation and to evaluate the impact of this relation on the panel's outcomes. The results indicated that the PV module temperature increases as a result from the increase of the solar intensity with increasing the tilt angle. The increase in the PV module temperature caused an increase in the voltage, a decrease in the current, and finally, increased the power

This paper proposes cost effective method of monitoring of government schools which are functioning in rural area where no internet and other advanced technologies are available. The main objective of this paper is to monitor students / employee attendance and management of schools using biometric and mobile technology. Many rural schools may not have facilities such as computers, Laptops, or internet connection at the school. But most of the employees / teachers are well versed with usage of Mobile phone now a days and it is easy to carry and maintain. Many activities are happening at the school level such as construction of school building, construction of classrooms, providing drinking water facility, providing toilet facility and other incentives schemes such as mid-day meal, textbook distribution, uniform distribution etc. In this context, to manage rural school and to get accurate and correct data instantly from rural schools to the state level, mobile technology is proposed. The system allows the user’s to monitor students/employees by capturing attendance details and civil works progress details along with its GPS location with the help of mobile phone which is equipped with an internal GPS receiver and a GPRS transmitter. A mobile phone application has been developed and deployed on an Android phone whose responsibility is to capture attendance with the help of fingerprint scanner and civil work’s GPS location. Data captured through software will be sent to remote server by creating GPRS packet. Biometric technology involves the identification and verification of individuals by analyzing the human fingerprint. Commercially available android supported biometric device is used to capture students/employee attendance details. Smartphone with 5MP and above camera is used to capture image of civil works. Once the data is uploaded to the remote server, the data will be made available in the form of reports or dashboard through web portal. Instant data sharing across different levels in the organization is possible which leads to effective and efficient administration. This system ensures transparency, accuracy and accountability at all levels.

The angular spectrum approach (ASA) is applied for the simulation of focused ultrasound produced by NXN rectangular transducer phased arrays by inserting through human mouth towards lung surface. The ASA rapidly computes the output pressure in a certain volume. The pressure deposition due to the array used is converted to therapeutic temperature for tumor treatment. Simulation and results show that the NXN rectangular phased array producing pressure determined by ASA can be applied successfully for lung tumor treatments.

The need for mobile communications computing and net-working has turn out to be important more than ever. With the increasing demand for low cost and high integration of wireless transceiver building blocks, the low power is a great concern for Radio Frequency Integrated Circuit (RFIC) designers. Exhaustive exertion has been made to advance RF integrated circuits and systems in the GHz range using CMOS process in low cost. Frequency Synthe-sizer that includes Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) is a signifi-cant block of the transceiver this generates carrier for the down-conversion/up-conversion operations. Voltage-Controlled Oscillator (VCO) and High Frequency Divider (HFD) decides the channel selection of frequency synthesiz-er and power consumption.
