Due to increasing number of wireless communications and devices, the limited radio spectrum is heavily congested. So, the spectrum crowding problem is occurred. To avoid the spectrum crowding problem, we have to utilize the limited radio spectrum in an efficient way. The cognitive radio is an attractive solution for the spectrum crowding problem. The Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing is selected as a physical layer for transmission in cognitive radio. This paper proposes the cognitive radio technology for OFDM for efficient utilization of radio spectrum.Keywords

This work explores the implementation of 3Dimentional DWT algorithm on FPGA and ASIC for video coding, several architectures have been proposed such as convolution based, lifting based and B-spline-based. Advances in medical imaging, video coding and telecommunication systems require efficient speed, resolution and real-time memory optimization with maximum hardware utilization. We propose a modified 3D DWT architecture based on 5/3 lifting scheme architecture, this filter gives better compression ratio. The architecture uses a new and fast lifting scheme which has the ability of performing progressive computations by minimizing the buffering between the decomposition levels. The architecture is modeled in verilog HDL and simulated by Modelsim. The 3D DWT architecture is synthesized in Xilinx tool and verified for the functionality. The 3D DWT has been implemented in Virtex 5 FPGA.Keywords

In this paper a review on different VLSI Architecture for lifting-based Inverse and Forward wavelet transform and mathematical modeling of 3D has been discussed. Video delivery through heterogeneous networks over new multimedia devices of varying capabilities requires scalable coding. In recent years, scalable video coding using the 3-D wavelet transform has gained a lot of attention. Wavelet based 3-D video coding systems use spatial-temporal analysis of a group of frames (GOF) followed by coefficients encoding.Keywords

The visually evoked potential (VEP) is the measure of cortically evoked electrical activity that provides information about the integrity of the optic nerve and the primary visual cortex. Visual evoked potentials (VEP) are very weak and noisy signals. For this reason, powerful extraction tools are needed to improve their clinical use. In this paper, I present the adaptive noise canceller scheme where the input signals represent successive recorded VEP. To test the effectiveness of the method and compare their performance to conventional averaging traditionally used in hospitals. As compared to adaptive linear filtering or conventional averaging techniques, no assumptions are required on the VEP responses such as the stationarity of the signal and the white Gaussian nature of the background. The results obtained show that non-linear filtering performs efficient VEP extraction based on just a few single responses. This is very significant in terms of saving time especially when recording data from elders and children. The challenge of image registration (the process of correctly aligning two or more images accounting for all possible source of distortion) is of general interest in image processing.Keywords

Automated disease detection and drug dosing is one of the most advanced emerging medical applications domain. With the advances in nanotechnology, nanobio sensors are being used to detect diseases. System level design and validation of automated disease detection unit is one of the challenging areas of study. In this paper, we develop a software based experimental setup for performance analysis of nanobio sensors for disease detection. Blood samples and fluids in human body are modeled using appropriate parameters and a mathematical model for nanobiosensor is developed. Performances of three nanobiosensors are analyzed and its properties are compared. Simulations of nanobiosensors are carried out using nanohub.org and Matlab. The results obtained are analyzed with simulation results in nanohub. The developed sensors are suitable for automated drug delivery unit.Keywords

In this paper, the mathematical models required to describe the functionality of nanodevices have been reviewed. Based on these mathematical models sensor equivalent circuits have been developed. An experimental setup is developed to analyze the characteristics of IS Field Effect Transistor (ISFET), nanowire and nanosphere devices. The impact of geometrical properties on device performance is estimated based on the experimental setup. Settling time and surface analyte concentration graphs obtained using the experimental setup is used in designing a nanobio sensor for disease detection. Based on the test results, a mathematical model has been developed in Matlab to model nanodevices. Three different iterations of sensor models are carried out based on the results obtained. Curve fitting techniques are adopted to generalize the developed sensor model using Savitzky-Golay Filter (SG Filter). The sensors modeled can be used for automated drug detection and delivery unit.Keywords

This paper presents estimation of vehicle location by accurate determination of its attitude using low cost MEMS inertial measurement unit (IMU) sensor. This comprises of tri-axial gyroscope and a tri-axial accelerometer. Because of drift problem low-cost MEMS gyro cannot be used. An accelerometer is used to correct this drift problem. However this is not possible because accelerometer measurements are corrupted by external accelerations produced due to vehicle movements. In this paper we show that vehicle kinematics allow the removal of external acceleration from the lateral and vertical axis accelerometer measurements. A adaptive Filter is designed for the conjunction of accelerometer and gyroscope to accurately determine the attitude of vehicle. The proposed filter is able to maintain sub-degree estimation accuracy even under severe and prolonged dynamic condition.

Welding structures are nowadays used in many applications such as machineries in industry and in the form of bridges in civil structures. Crack in those structures results in loss of structural integrity which reduces a efficiency of a system in which the structure is used. Hence crack detection of a structure before implementation is important to reduce a defect. Here adaptive changing and morphology is used to detect a crack in structures.
