ABSTRACT

This article provides insights in designing a dielectrically modulated biosensor by adopting high-k stacked gate oxide proposition in a bi-metal hetero-juncture Tunnel Field Effect Transistor (BM-SO-HTFET) with Si0.6Ge0.4 source. The integrated effect of heterojunction and stacked gate oxide leads to enhanced electrical performance of the proposed device in terms of carrier mobility and suppressed leakage current. Nano-cavity engraved beneath the bi-metal gate structure across the source/channel end acts the binding site of the biomolecules to be detected. This Configuration leads to improved control of biomolecules over source/channel tunnelling rate and the same is reflected in the sensing ability of the device while extracting the ON current sensitivity (SON) of the sensor. The reported biosensor is simulated using Silvaco ATLAS calibrated simulation framework. The analysis of the device sensitivity is carried out varying dielectric constants (k) of various biomolecules, both neutral as well as charged. Our study reveals that BM-SO-HTFET with Ge mole fraction composition x = 0.4 exhibits sensitivity as high as 4.1 × 1010 for neutral biomolecules and 3.2 × 1011 for positively charged biomolecules with k = 12. Furthermore, a transient response profile for the drain current with various biomolecules is explored to determine the varying settling time. From the simulation results, it is noted that BM-SO-HTFET exhibits ON current sensitivity of 4.1 × 1010 and 3.2 × 1011 for neutral and charged biomolecules respectively. In addition to this, for highly sensitive and real time detection of biomolecules, the impact of temperature and certain non-ideal factors drifting from ideal case of fully filled cavity have also been considered to analyze its optimum sensing performance.

ABSTRACT

Microstrip antennas usually suffer from high losses, gain, and efficiency degradation. It is a challenging task to miniaturize the patch antenna without degrading the performance parameters. To mitigate the above problems, a microstrip patch antenna loaded with stubs and printed on the ground plane loaded with dumbbell meta-atom is presented in this paper. The proposed double dumbbell meta-atom consists of two complementary split ring resonator (CSRR) cells loaded with rectangular rings. This exhibits the Double Negative (DNG) characteristic at 2.45 GHz. The devised meta-atom possesses dimensions of 0.05λ x 0.03λ at lower giga-hertz range. The meta-atom is further analyzed in CST-Microwave Studio and the corresponding S-parameters are extracted in MATLAB using the Nicolson Ross Weir (NRW) method. The electrical model of the meta-atom is also analyzed using Agilent ADS simulator. Further, two models of the proposed antenna with FR-4 and RT/Duroid-5880 are designed and compared. The proposed patch antenna resonates at three different frequency bands i.e. 2.445 GHz with a 3-dB bandwidth of 110 MHz (2.4 GHz-2.51 GHz), at 5.85 GHz with a 3-dB bandwidth of 730 MHz (5.13 GHz-5.86 GHz), and at 8.83 GHz with a 3-dB bandwidth of 1.83 GHz (7.7 GHz-9.53 GHz). This exhibit peak gains of 2.75dBi, 3.53dBc and 4.36dBi with low cross polarization levels at the said frequencies of operation. Further, the antenna possesses circular polarization in the frequency band (5.15 GHz-5.63 GHz). This antenna is used for Wi-Fi, ISM and X-band communications. The designed prototype is fabricated and tested and bears resemblance to the simulated results.

ABSTRACT

A comprehensive examination of human action recognition (HAR) methodologies situated at the convergence of deep learning and computer vision is the subject of this article. We examine the progression from handcrafted feature-based approaches to end-to-end learning, with a particular focus on the significance of large-scale datasets. By classifying research paradigms, such as temporal modelling and spatial features, our proposed taxonomy illuminates the merits and drawbacks of each. We specifically present HARNet, an architecture for Multi-Model Deep Learning that integrates recurrent and convolutional neural networks while utilizing attention mechanisms to improve accuracy and robustness. The VideoMAE v2 method ( https://github.com/OpenGVLab/VideoMAEv2 ) has been utilized as a case study to illustrate practical implementations and obstacles. For researchers and practitioners interested in gaining a comprehensive understanding of the most recent advancements in HAR as they relate to computer vision and deep learning, this survey is an invaluable resource.

ABSTRACT

Environmental monitoring, ocean research, and underwater exploration are just a few of the marine applications that require precise underwater target localization. This study goes into the field of underwater target localization using Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) enhanced with proximity-based approaches, with a focus on mean estimation error as a performance metric. In complex and dynamic underwater environments, conventional localization systems frequently face challenges such as signal degradation, noise interference, and unstable hydrodynamic conditions. This paper presents a novel approach to employing RNNs to increase the accuracy of underwater target localization by exploiting the temporal dynamics of proximity-informed data. This method uses an RNN architecture to track changes in audio emissions from underwater targets sensed by a microphone network. Using the temporal correlations represented in the data, the RNN learns patterns indicative of target localization quickly and correctly. Furthermore, the addition of proximity-based features increases the model's ability to understand the relative distances between hydrophone nodes and the target, resulting in more accurate localization estimates. To evaluate the suggested methodology, thorough simulations and practical experiments were carried out in a variety of underwater environments. The results show that the RNN-based strategy beats conventional methods and works effectively even in difficult settings. The utility of the proximity-aware RNN model is demonstrated, in particular, by considerable reductions in the mean estimate error (MEE), an important performance measure.

ABSTRACT

In this work, the operation of photovoltaic system, wind turbine driven doubly fed induction generator along with battery has been observed. Also, a searching space minimization-based artificial bee colony scheme is developed for tracking the maximum power in a doubly fed induction generator-based system. To track maximum power in solar systems, an improved adaptive reference voltage approach has been presented. Several conventional and optimization-based techniques are used by DFIG and photovoltaic systems to get around the non-linearity features in the output parameters. Regarding DFIG, the artificial bee colony method based on searching space minimization can be used to solve the shortcomings of the perturb and observe algorithm. Because of its weather-sensitive nature, it can withstand sudden changes in wind speed. The suggested searching space minimization based artificial bee colony strategy uses a mechanism for determining the range of optimal rotor speed in order to track the maximum power point more quickly. The maximum power point tracking performance of the adaptive reference voltage technique is superior to that of current perturb and observed-based systems. However, a huge processing memory is required in order to track the maximum possible power point. This paper proposes an enhanced maximum power point tracking technique based on adaptive reference voltage that does not require a memory unit. Additionally, despite sudden changes in irradiation conditions, improved adaptive reference voltage can drift-free and reliably monitor the maximum power point. The new adaptive reference voltage technique uses temperature and radiation sensors to identify the region nearest to the maximum power point. This helps the system respond more quickly. The proposed system with searching space minimization based artificial bee colony and improved adaptive reference voltage schemes displays lower inter-harmonic content in grid current compared to perturb and observe scheme. The proposed scheme has been implemented in MATLAB & simulink atmosphere and OPAL-RT displayed satisfactory results.

ABSTRACT

Cybersecurity is critical in today's digitally linked and networked society. There is no way to overestimate the importance of cyber security as technology develops and becomes more pervasive in our daily lives. Cybersecurity is essential to people's protection. One type of cyberattack known as "credential stuffing" involves using previously acquired usernames and passwords by attackers to access user accounts on several websites without authorization. This is feasible as a lot of people use the same passwords and usernames on several different websites. Maintaining the security of online accounts requires defence against credential-stuffing attacks. The problems of credential stuffing attacks, failure detection, and prediction can be handled by the suggested EWOA-ANN model. Here, a novel optimization approach known as Enhanced Whale Optimization Algorithm (EWOA) is put on to train the neural network. The effectiveness of the suggested attack identification model has been demonstrated, and an empirical comparison will be carried out with respect to specific security analysis.

ABSTRACT

Solar Photovoltaic (SPV) technology advancements are primarily aimed at decarbonizing and enhancing the resiliency of the energy grid. Incorporating SPV is one of the ways to achieve the goal of energy efficiency. Because of the nonlinearity, modeling of SPV is a very difficult process. Identification of variables in a lumped electric circuit model is required for accurate modeling of the SPV system. This paper presents a new state-of-the-art control technique based on human artefacts dubbed Drone Squadron Optimization for estimating 15 parameters of a three-diode equivalent model solar PV system. The suggested method simulates a nonlinear relationship between the P-V and I-V performance curves, lowering the difference between experimental and calculated data. To evaluate the adaptive performance in every climatic state, two different test cases with commercial PV cells, RTC France and photo watt-201, are used. The proposed method provides a more accurate parameter estimate. To validate the recommended approach's performance, the data are compared to the results of the most recent and powerful methodologies in the literature. For the RTC and PWP Photo Watt Cell, the DSO technique has the lowest Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) of 6.7776 × 10-4 and 0.002310324 × 10-4, respectively.

ABSTRACT

In wireless communication, multiple signals are utilized to receive and send information in the form of signals simultaneously. These signals consume little power and are usually inexpensive, with a high data rate during data transmission. An Multi Input Multi Output (MIMO) system uses numerous antennas to enhance the functionality of the system. Moreover, system intricacy and power utilization are difficult and highly complicated tasks to achieve in an Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) at the receiver side. An infinite number of MIMO channels are used in wireless networks to improve efficiency with Cross Entropy Optimization (CEO). ADC is a serious issue because the data of the accepted signal are completely lost. ADC is used in the MIMO channels to overcome the above issues, but it is very hard to implement and design. So, an efficient way to enhance the estimation of channels in the MIMO system is proposed in this paper with the utilization of the heuristic-based optimization technique. The main task of the implemented channel prediction framework is to predict the channel coefficient of the MIMO system at the transmitter side based on the receiver side error ratio, which is obtained from feedback information using a Hybrid Serial Cascaded Network (HSCN). Then, this multi-scaled cascaded autoencoder is combined with Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) with an attention mechanism. The parameters in the developed Hybrid Serial Cascaded Multi-scale Autoencoder and Attention LSTM are optimized using the developed Hybrid Revised Position-based Wild Horse and Energy Valley Optimizer (RP-WHEVO) algorithm for minimizing the "Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), Bit Error Rate (BER) and Mean Square Error (MSE)" of the estimated channel. Various experiments were carried out to analyze the accomplishment of the developed MIMO model. It was visible from the tests that the developed model enhanced the convergence rate and prediction performance along with a reduction in the computational costs.

ABSTRACT

The Underwater Acoustic Sensor Network (UASN) is a large network in which the vicinity of a transmitting node is made up of numerous operational sensor nodes. The communication process may be substantially disrupted due to the underwater acoustic channel's time-varying and space-varying features. As a result, the underwater acoustic communication system faces the problems of reducing interference and enhancing communication effectiveness and quality through adaptive modulation. To overcome this issue, this paper intends to propose a model for optimal path selection and secured data transmission in UASN via Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) based energy prediction. The proposed model of transmitting the secured data in UASN through the optimal path involves two major phases. Initially, the nodes are selected under the consideration of constraints like energy, distance and link quality in terms of throughput. Moreover, the energy is predicted with the aid of LSTM and the optimal path is selected with the proposed hybrid optimization algorithm termed as Pelican Updated Chimp Optimization Algorithm (PUCOA), which is the combination of two algorithms including the Pelican Optimization Algorithm (POA) and Chimp Optimization Algorithm (COA). Further, the data is transmitted via the optimal path securely by encrypting the data with the proposed improved blowfish algorithm (IBFA). At last, the developed LSTM+PUCOA model is validated with standard benchmark models and it proves that the performance of the proposed LSTM+PUCOA model attains 90.85% of accuracy, 92.78% of precision, 91.78% of specificity, 89.79% of sensitivity, 7.21% of FPR, 89.76% of F1 score, 89.77% of MCC, 10.20% of FNR, 92.45% of NPV, and 10.22% of FDR for Learning percentage 70.

ABSTRACT

Deep-sea object localization by underwater acoustic sensor networks is a current research topic in the field of underwater communication and navigation. To find a deep-sea object using underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSNs), the sensors must first detect the signals sent by the object. The sensor readings are then used to approximate the object's position. A lot of parameters influence localization accuracy, including the number and location of sensors, the quality of received signals, and the algorithm used for localization. To determine position, the angle of arrival (AOA), time difference of arrival (TDoA), and received signal strength indicator (RSSI) are used. The UWSN requires precise and efficient localization algorithms because of the changing underwater environment. Time and position are required for sensor data, especially if the sensor is aware of its surroundings. This study describes a critical localization strategy for accomplishing this goal. Using beacon nodes, arrival distance validates sensor localization. We account for the fact that sensor nodes are not in perfect temporal sync and that sound speed changes based on the medium (water, air, etc.) in this section. Our simulations show that our system can achieve high localization accuracy by accounting for temporal synchronisation, measuring mean localization errors, and forecasting their variation. The suggested system localization has a lower mean estimation error (MEE) while using RSSI. This suggests that measurements based on RSSI provide more precision and accuracy during localization.
