• Item No Preview Available A Multifunctional Smart Field-Programmable Radio Frequency Surface Li, Tianzhi ( 2023-04 ) Wireless communication technology has completely transformed the way we communicate and access information. It operates on the principles of electromagnetic wave propagation, as described by Maxwell's equations. The scope of wireless communication is vast and includes satellite communication, handheld device communication, and Internet of Things (IoT), which have revolutionized fields of industry, healthcare, transportation, education, and entertainment. As demand for faster and more reliable communication continues to grow, a range of wireless communication standards has been developed, including WiFi, BLE, cellular networks, near-field communication (NFC), and ZigBee, each operating at a unique frequency range. Antennas that can operate across multiple communication standards have remained a challenge due to the interdependent factors of antenna geometry, size, and RF characteristics. As the number of devices with wireless connectivity increases dramatically, the spectrum resource is getting limited, which results in congestion and reduced performance. Reconfigurable antennas have been intensively studied in the last few decades to mitigate this challenge. Although reconfigurability in operating frequency, radiation pattern and polarization have been implemented, limitations including lack of programmability, pattern diversity, and self-adaptive capability against environmental interference exist. To address these limitations, we proposed a new concept called Field-programmable RF surface (FPRFS), which allows for the control of current flow on the surface to achieve desired antenna characteristics and impedance matching capabilities. This work starts with the theoretical analysis and creates the mathematical model for the FPRFS in antenna, impedance matching network, and filter applications. Our research demonstrated the reconfigurability of FPRFS antennas in operating frequency, radiation pattern, and polarization reconfigurability with radiation gain and efficiency levels that are comparable to those of conventional fixed patch antennas and enhanced immunity to surrounding obstacles. We developed a software algorithm for the FPRFS that enables it to automatically optimize its configuration in real-time, thereby adapting to changing load impedance or environmental interferences.

Determine the Project's Scope.

Do you know what you are looking for?  Can you describe your project using one simple sentence or can you phrase the project as a question?  Without a clear idea of the project, you may not be able to determine which are the best resources to search, what terminology should be used in those resources, and if the results are appropriate and sufficient.    

If you're having difficulty getting your project described succinctly, try using a PICO chart to identify the concepts involved:

• P is the popluation, problem, predicament or process
• I is the intervention or improvement
• C is what you'll compare your intervention/improvment to, and
• O is the outcome (or results of the comparison of I and C ) 

For example: 

Your client, the owner of a nuclear power generating facility, has had several less than optimal safety inspections recently.  The inspectors have singled out operator error as a major concern and have required changes in employee training.  But is more training the solution?  The employees complain that the plant's poorly designed control room hampers their ability to respond to non-standard situations.  Could a redesign improve performance and decrease the occurance of unsafe events?   Your client wants more than just your opinion, he wants to see the data to back it up.   So, what can you find in the literature?

Here's one way that the PICO chart could be filled out:     

• P =   nuclear power safety  
• I  = human factors engineering
• C  =  additional training; little or no human factors engineering used  
• O = accident rate or safety inspection comparison

And here are examples of possible search statements:  

• I am looking for ways that human factors engineering can improve safety in the nuclear power industry.
• Is additional training or employing human factors engineering the better method for reducing safety violations in a nuclear power plant? 

Your research will always start with a " P AND I " search; those are the most important pieces of the puzzle.  However, once you have the results from that search, you'll need to know where you want to go with those results; that's when the C and O concepts need to be considered.  

 Also, don't forget --- determine if your project has limits.  For example:

• Are you reviewing the literature only within a specific time frame?
• Are you looking at English-language material only?
• Are you considering research from just the United States or worldwide?
• Are there types of material you won't be covering (trade magazines, patents, technical reports, etc.)?  

Take the simple sentence or question that describes what you are looking for.  What are the concepts in the sentence? Are there synonyms that describe the same concept?   If you filled out a PICO chart, concentrate on the  P (problem) and the  I (intervention) for the concept chart.  

Concept Chart:

Concept 1:   _______  OR _______  OR _______  AND Concept 2:   _______   OR   _______  OR   _______  AND Concept 3:  _______  OR  _______  OR   _______ 

  Example:  

I am looking for ways that human factors engineering can improve safety in the nuclear power industry. 

Concept 1:   nuclear power    OR _ nuclear industry _____   AND Concept 2:   _safety___  OR   _accident prevention____   AND Concept 3: _ human factors engineering ___   

What resources you'll use for your literature review depends on what types of materials you want to find.  

• Background Information The more you know about a topic, the better you'll be able to research it.  You'll be familiar with the terminology, understand the underlining science/technology and be aware of the issues in the field. Most importantly, you'll be able to understand what you've retrieved from your search.  But no matter how much you know before hand you'll likely run across terms and concepts with which you're unfamiliar.    Materials such as encyclopedias, dictionaries and handbooks will not only help you learn about the basics of your topic before you begin your search but they'll also help you understand the terminology used in the documents you found from your literature review.    You'll find these types of resources listed on the Dictionaries and Handbooks pages on this guide.
• Books The large size of books (usually 100-500 pages) allows a topic to be studied braodly, covering many different issues.  Conversely, the large size also allows for a specific aspect of the topic to be covered in great detail.  Because of the time it takes to publish, sci-tech books generally do not contain the most current information. To find print and online books from both the ASU Library as well as in other libraries, see the Books page on this guide.
• Conference Papers Scientists and engineers frequently present new findings at conferences before these findings are written up in journal articles or books.  Not every conference, however, publishes it proceedings.  In some cases, conferences publish only a few of the papers presented but not all.   Many resources that help you find journal articles, may also be used to find conference papers, see the Articles page on this guide.
• Journal and Trade Magazine Articles Articles in journals (also called magazines) are short, usually 5-20 pages in length and cover a specific finding, experiment or project.  Articles in scholary journals are usually written by academics or professional scientists/engineers and are aimed at others at the same level.   Articles in trade journals/magazines are written by the journal staff and report on industry news suchs as sales, mergers, prices, etc.   To find journal and trade magazine articles, use the resources listed on the Articles page on this guide. 
• Patents Patents are grants from governments that gives the inventor certain rights of manufacture.  Patents provide a wealth of information for how a technology is being advanced and by which companies.  It is frequently stated that 80% of the information in patents never appears elsewhere in the literature. 
• To identify patents granted in the U.S. and internationally see the " Searching for Patents " guide.
• To see statistical information for U.S. patents by technology class see the US Patent and Trademark's website.
• Technical Reports Technical reports are part of the "gray literature";  gray literature refers to documents that are not published commercially, hence they are difficult to both identify and find.  Technical reports focus on a specific experiment or research project and are meant to convey the results of the experiment or project back to the funding organization.  In the United States, common sources of technical reports are the government agencies that sponsor research projects.  Reports generated within a private corporation and funded soley by that corporation are seldom ever available to anyone outside of the company.      To find technical reports, use the resources listed on the Technical Reports page on this guide.     

Search, Read, Refine and Repeat

Now it's time to apply your search strategy in the resources you've decided to use.

• Use the Advanced Search feature (or whatever search is set up with the 3 lines of boxes) and enter your search strategy just as you recorded in your search strategy chart.  Don't forget to set your limits.   If the resource only provides a single search box, rearrange your chart from vertical into horizontal so that the search statement looks like this:   (Concept#1 OR synonym) AND (Concept#2 OR synonym) AND (Concept#3 OR synonym) Example: (nuclear power OR nuclear industry) AND (safety OR accident prevention) AND (human factors engineering)
• Examine the results to find the most appropriate items.  Keep your one-sentence project description (and/or your PICO chart) in mind to help you stay on track.
• Export the records/citations you want to keep into a citation manager.
• If there are subjects (may also be called subject headings, index terms, descriptors or controlled vocabulary) assigned to each item, make sure that those also transferred into a citation manager.  If not, add them manually.
• Get the full text of the items 
• Read the full text of the items and look at the subjects assigned to the item and consider:
• Do I have to change (narrow) my topic to something more specific because I'm finding way too much? 
• Do I have to change (broaden) my topic because I can't find enough about it? 
• Is there additional terminology for my topic/concepts that I hadn't included in my original search?
• Redo your search strategy according to what you found in step #6 and rerun the search in the resources again.
• You may need to repeat this cycle several times before you are able to identify the best terminology to use in each resource. 

If there will be several months in between when you search the literature and when you turn in the paper, consider setting up alerts and feeds so that you are notified should new items about your topic appear.   How you set up an alert or feed will vary.  In most cases you'll be required to set up a personal account or profile with the journal or database --- there is no charge for this but you will have to identify yourself and provide an email address.  

For instructions on setting up alerts and feeds, see the " Keep Current " page.

The UWF Writing Lab can help you with grammar, proofreading, and answer questions about your paper.  For a full list of their services, look at the Lab Hours and Resources menue.

A Literature Review Is Not:

• just a summary of sources
• a grouping of broad, unrelated sources
• a compilation of  everything  that has been written on a particular topic
• literature criticism (think English) or a book review

So, what is it then?

A literature review is an integrated analysis-- not just a summary-- of scholarly writings that are related directly to your research question.  That is, it represents the literature that provides background information on your topic and shows a correspondence between those writings and your research question.

A literature review may be a stand alone work or the introduction to a larger research paper, depending on the assignment.  Rely heavily on the guidelines your instructor has given you.

Why is it important?

A literature review is important because it:

• Explains the background of research on a topic.
• Demonstrates why a topic is significant to a subject area.
• Discovers relationships between research studies/ideas.
• Identifies major themes, concepts, and researchers on a topic.
• Identifies critical gaps and points of disagreement.
• Discusses further research questions that logically come out of the previous studies.

1. Choose your topic, define your question

• Your literature review should be guided by a central research question.  Remember, it is not a collection of loosely related studies in a field but instead represents background and research developments related to a specific research question, interpreted and analyzed by you.

2. Decide on the scope of your review

• How many studies do you need to look at? How comprehensive should it be? How many years should it cover? 

3. Select the databases you will use to conduct your searches

4. Conduct your searches and find the literature. Keep track of your searches!

• Review the abstracts and conclusions carefully. This will save you time.
• Write down the keywords you used and where you found them
• Use RefWorks to keep track of your citations.

5. Review the literature! This is the most time consuming part.

• What was the research question of the study you are reviewing? What were the authors trying to discover?
• Was the research funded by a source that could influence the findings?
• What were the research methodologies? Analyze its literature review, the samples and variables used, the results, and the conclusions. Does the research seem to be complete? Could it have been conducted more soundly? What further questions does it raise?
• If there are conflicting studies, why do you think that is?
• How are the authors viewed in the field? Has this study been cited?; if so, how has it been analyzed?

Starting a Literature Review

If you have never completed a literature review, it can be daunting at first, or tempting to rush through without taking the steps needed to complete the review.  The main point to remember is that you are trying to summarize the current state of research in a specific area/field.  This is done by looking through different sources from different authors/research groups and then putting that information into a single document.

What can be confusing is that literature reviews will vary in length and number of references depending on the topic, field, and depth of research.  For example, a basic literature review for a graduate class might have 15-20 references while a literature review conducted for a dissertation may have 100 or more references.  It is the researcher's job to assess what is needed for their application like any other engineering project.

Finally, be sure to check out the UMD Libraries' Ethical Use of Information Guide to help you through this process!

Literature Review Steps

The basic steps of a literature review include: Search - Record - Evaluate & Analyze - Synthesize.  These can be more explicitly put into the following six steps:

1. Define your topic/research question

2. Search relevant databases, journals, and more (Search)

3. Document references found applicable to topic in a citation manager or similar (Evaluate)

4. Organize references into sub-topics (Analyze)

5. Document results through a summary of the state of research discovered via the steps above (Synthesize)

6. (Recommended) Publish your results!

• No Thumbnail Available Item Segmentation-based Approaches to Pre-operative and Intra-operative Brain Ultrasound Image Registration ( 2024 ) Chel, Haradhan Show more The human brain is made of soft tissues that floats on cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and it frequently shifts during a surgical process. The brain-shift prevents a neuro-navigation (NN) system from locating the diseased region. A brain ultrasound (BUS) imaging system is utilized to monitor the surgical procedure. Brain-shift can be corrected by registering the pre-operative brain ultrasound (pBUS) and the corresponding intra-operative brain ultrasound (iBUS) images. The similarity between the pBUS and the corresponding iBUS image is affected for a variety of reasons, which makes the registration difficult. This thesis developed three methods to extract similar regions in pBUS and iBUS images and register using these regions. The first method finds the common edge-rich regions from the registering image pair and is followed by the registration of those edge-rich regions through the minimization of the mean-squared registration error. The second method proposes a fast and fully automatic method for extracting the hyper-echoic(HE) regions from the registering image pairs. The patch-based approach makes the segmentation faster and robust to noise. The segmented HE regions are registered by minimizing the registration error. The third approach adopts a patch-based level-set strategy for segmenting three prominent HE regions namely, the longitudinal fissure, choroid plexus, tumor, and two anechoic regions namely, the ventricles and the resection cavity. A registration method is followed on the segmented image sections. Various gradient-based and heuristic optimizations are used for minimizing the mean-squared registration error during registration. Experiments were conducted on selected image pairs from the RESECT and the BITE datasets. For performance evaluation, the segmented ground truth images are prepared by annotating the boundaries of different regions in coordination with an expert radiologist. For comparing registration performance, common tagpoints are selected from the registering image pairs, and the improvement of mean target registration error (mTRE) after registration is analyzed. Experimental results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed segmentation-based approaches to the state-of-the-art methods. Show more
• No Thumbnail Available Item Design and Analysis of Memelements for Low Power and Area Efficient High Frequency Applications ( 2023 ) Ananda, Y R Show more Memristor, memcapacitor, and meminductor are the three types of memory elements (memelements). Memristor is the fourth fundamental circuit element based on the missing relationship between two electrical quantities, the charge (q) and the flux (φ). The memristor is considered one of the most promising nano-devices among those currently being studied for possible use in future electronic systems. The best performance features include fast switching speed, high endurance and data retention, low power consumption, high integration density, and CMOS compatibility. Memristors are being explored as a potential technology to replace CMOS for logic-in-memory systems exploiting memristive nonvolatility. It is one of the prominent characteristic features of the memristor, which effectively solves the so-called memory wall problem in conventional von-Neumann architecture. A memristive device is highly nonlinear and non-volatile, which makes this device is better storage element with greater data density than the existing memory devices. In addition, the memristor exhibits switching capability, which is more relevant for implementing logic gates, a realization of Boolean functions, and system designing, such as arithmetic units like adders, subtractors, multipliers and dividers.

• No Thumbnail Available Item Shouted, Overlapped and Competitive Speech Detection in Indian Television News Debates ( 2022 ) Baghel, Shikha Show more Television (TV) news debates present expert opinions, analysis and discussions on contemporary events. These debates play a critical role in navigating public belief and understanding of socio-politically relevant topics. This encourages several agencies to analyze the TV news debate content for monitoring their influence. The availability of huge (and ever increasing) amount of news debate data calls for the necessity of automatic content analysis. TV news debates are generally argumentative in nature. Such arguments are often associated with the presence of shouted, overlapped, and competitive speech. In this context, the present thesis aims to detect these three speech categories in Indian TV news debates. The first contribution of this thesis is the development of an Indian Broadcast News Debate (IBND) corpus containing audio signals from 15 news debates (approximately 13 hours). A multi-level annotation procedure was followed to obtain the final annotations for the three targeted tasks of the thesis. The second contribution lies in the proposal of excitation source based Shouted Speech Detection (SSD). Both handcrafted and learned features from excitation source-based representations are explored for SSD. An autoencoder with Bi-GRU based architecture is used as classifier. The third aim of the thesis is to identify the overlapped speech in TV news debates. Phase-based representations of the speech signals are established as efficient features for Overlapped Speech Detection (OSD) using a CNN-LSTM based classifier. Finally, the shouted and overlapped speech classification network embeddings and their prediction scores are used as features to identify the competitive speech. It has been shown that the detection of competitive speech can be performed efficiently using high-level information of both shouted and overlapped speech. Show more
• No Thumbnail Available Item Operation and Control of Smart Transformer Based Meshed Hybrid Microgrid ( 2023 ) Das, Dwijasish Show more The excessive use of fossil fuels for power generation in the previous decades has led to various environmental concerns. Moreover, such fuels are also with limited availability. These factors have encouraged engineers and scientists to look for alternate renewal energy sources (RES) for power generation. Various RES like solar photo-voltaic (PV), wind, geothermal, etc., have been used for power generation and injection into the electric grid. However, such changing trends come with their own limitations. RES are generally intermittent in nature with widely varying levels of availability throughout the day and round the year. In addition to that, such sources also need power electronic interface for power injection into the electric grid. These factors give rise to various challenges like voltage variations, faults, harmonics in voltages and currents, islanded operation, complexity of control, etc. Various power electronic equipment such as distribution static compensator (DSTATCOM), dynamic voltage restorer (DVR), unified power quality conditioner (UPQC), static transfer switch, static current limiter, etc., are used in the electric grid to address such challenges.

• No Thumbnail Available Item Avergage Modeling and DC-Link Capacitor Voltage Regulation of SRF-dq Controlled Single-Phase ANPCI for Solar and Wind Power Applications ( 2022 ) Missula, Jagath Vallabhai Show more A Voltage Source Inverter (VSI) converts DC voltage to ac voltage with adjustable magnitude and frequency. VSIs have numerous industrial applications, such as, uninterrupted power supplies, adjustable speed drives, High Voltage DC (HVDC) transmission, Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS), renewable power generation, etc. Based on the number of output voltage levels, the VSIs can be classified as two-level inverters and Multi-Level Inverters (MLIs). Due to the high voltage and large power handling capability and reduced Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) in the output voltage, MLIs are preferred to two-level inverters, mostly in the medium and high-power applications. Neutral Point Clamped (NPC) MLI, Flying Capacitor (FC) MLI and cascaded H-bridge MLI are the most popular topologies among the various MLIs available in the literature. Show more
• No Thumbnail Available Item Design and Implementation of Hardware-Efficient Architectures for FFT Algorithms ( 2024 ) Hazarika, Jinti Show more The Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) holds significance across diverse applications in wireless communications, audio, and signal processing. This doctoral thesis addresses the imperative need to enhance hardware efficiency while concurrently minimizing area and power consumption in FFT processors. Extensive efforts by researchers have centered on optimizing FFT algorithms, determining the requisite number of multipliers, adders, and registers, all of which intricately influence power consumption and overall area. These considerations become pivotal constraints in FFT applications, necessitating a judicious trade-off between complexity and performance. Show more
• No Thumbnail Available Item Investigation on Multi-dynamic Radar System: A concept for Airborne Surveillance Application ( 2024 ) Qumar, Javed Show more During the last few decades, Stealth technology has proven to be one of the most effective approaches to hiding the target from radar systems. The basic concept of low observable is mainly the reduction of Radar Cross Section (RCS) in direction of the receiver. So, for detecting such targets, concepts of bistatic and multi-static radar attracted substantial attention. However more challenges lie when radar platforms are mobile or airborne. The geometrical structures are studied with different spacing of radars, it is one of the parameters for Bi-static Radar (Baseline distance between transmitter and receiver) to extend the detection coverage over the mono-static radar. The simulation is also made to extend further for multi-dynamic scenarios. Transmitted waveform identification is very important to know the info about the waveform to processing the returned signal accordingly. The simulation is made for transmitter identity based on augmented BPSK/BASK based waveform ID tailored with standard LFM. However, another way of Transmitter ID info is simulated using IFF Mode-S waveform so that IFF waveform can be utilized for waveform ID of the radar. Show more
• No Thumbnail Available Item Application of Reduced Switch Single DC Source based Cascaded H-bridge Multilevel Inverter for Power Quality Improvement ( 2022 ) Chakrabarty, Ramyani Show more Distribution static compensator (DSTATCOM) is a shunt connected custom power device which is widely used for load compensation and improvement of power quality. The conventional MLIs used for DSTATCOM implementation pose some drawbacks like large component count, multiple DC-link capacitors and capacitor voltage balancing issues which complicate its design and control. To overcome these issues, a 7-level reduced switch single DC source based cascaded H-bridge multilevel inverter (RSDCHBMLI) topology is presented in this thesis. RSDCHBMLI utilizes lesser number of switches, single DC source and has no requirement of additional diodes or capacitors. As the number of switches in this topology is reduced, a single carrier level shifted pulse width modulation (SC-LS-PWM) technique is developed which is implemented in low-cost controller. The RSDCHBMLI operation is implemented and analyzed in both open-loop and closed loop using state-feedback control (SFB). SFB controller combined with SC-LS-PWM results in constant switching frequency operation of the inverter. The 7-level RSDCHBMLI is implemented as a DSTATCOM connected to weak distribution system. Both SFB current control and finite-control-set model- predictive-control (FCS-MPC) is implemented for load compensation, and it is observed that FCS-MPC gives better dynamic response. It also develops a current based DC-bus voltage controller whose gains can be easily computed and gives better performance than conventional controllers. Detailed case studies for DSTATCOM operation under various conditions of loads and source voltages are also presented. Show more
• No Thumbnail Available Item Ripple Minimization of Input and Inductor Currents in Coupled Inductor Single Input Dual Output DC-DC Converters ( 2023 ) Nupur Show more The single input multiple outputs (SIMO) DC-DC converters with two outputs are called single input dual output (SIDO) DC-DC converters. The SIDO converters can generate two different DC voltage levels from only one available DC voltage level with the reduced component count, reduced losses, reduced physical size and increased efficiency. The introduction of an inversely coupled inductor further reduces the physical size as the flux due to the two windings cancels each other, resulting in a reduced flux in the core. Therefore, the coupled inductor single input dual output (CI-SIDO) buck, boost, and buck-boost converters are analyzed in this thesis. The analysis of each CI-SIDO converter for all possible values of the coupled inductor parameters, duty ratios, and the gate pulse shift is very tedious and repetitive. An approach to unify inductor current waveforms and inductor current ripples in CI-SIDO converters is presented by forming sectors of duty ratios. The CI-SIDO converters have two MOSFETs with two gate pulses. It is found that the shift of one gate pulse with respect to the starting point of another gate pulse reduces the ripples in two inductor currents and input currents. The ripples in inductor currents reduce up to $92.46\%$ with respect to the zero shifting. The condition of the ripple-free input current is also proposed. This work also proposes a unified coupled inductor design with reduced inductor current ripples. An approach to design a CI-SIDO boost converter is also proposed such that the ripple in input current is either zero or less than the maximum specified ripple limit. It is further found that there is no undesirable effect of gate pulse shifting on any of the variables of the CI-SIDO converter, such as the average value of inductor current, input current, and output voltage ripples. Also, the range of CCM operation increases as the shifting is introduced by decreasing the CCM/DCM boundary. The discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) of the CI-SIDO boost converter is also analysed. The input-output voltage relations of DCM are found, and the effect of change in load currents, input voltages and duty ratios are analysed for all possibilities of the CI-SIDO boost converter Show more
• No Thumbnail Available Item Theoretical and Experimental Investigation of Graphene based Devices for Bio-Sensing Applications ( 2022 ) Singh, Rajan Show more Biosensors are widely used to expedite the estimation of vital health signatures and provide techniques that aid in the continuous health monitoring of patients. Over the last few decades, the advancement in the silicon industry caused significant improvement in the development of sensing devices, marketing sensitive and robust sensors. However, multidisciplinary expertise is needed for the furtherance of developed biosensors. Biotechnology provides simple yet efficient assays to detect biomarkers and hence plays an imperative role in sensor development. Recent developments in two-dimensional nanomaterials such as graphene have also proved to be of great importance to achieve better sensor performances. However, the estimation and modelling of the interaction between the biomarkers and newly discovered nanomaterials are not yet matured, which is indispensable for developing a new generation of sensors. The traditional methods to evaluate these interactions are based on experimentally determined parameters that are difficult to estimate. Therefore, methods for electronic structure calculation, such as density functional theory (DFT), can be a good candidature for the study of interactions between biomarkers and nanomaterials. The primary research objective of this thesis is to employ DFT for estimating the electronic structure of pristine graphene and doped graphene nanostructures and evaluating their interactions with numerous gaseous molecules and biomarkers by calculating binding energies, electronic structures, and charge transfer. The doped nanostructures exhibit superior sensing capabilities over pristine nanostructures. Further, the synthesis of graphene and its functionalization routes to employ them as Glutathione and Lactate sensors are explored. Later, for experimental proof, the chem-resistive-based sensing devices were fabricated, and sensor parameters were estimated. The high sensitivity and better limit of detection of the fabricated devices make them suitable for devices for point of care applications for detecting various health disorders. Show more
• No Thumbnail Available Item Analysis and simulation of piezoelectric vibration energy harvesters having uniform stress profile ( 2023 ) Kundu, Sushanta Show more The objective of the presented work is to improve the electrical power output by modifying the geometry of the piezoelectric vibration energy harvester (PVEH). The key contributions of the thesis are, modification of the thickness profile of conventional cantilever-based bimorph PVEH to achieve uniform stress along the beam length. In this regard, two thickness-tapered geometries are proposed: PVEH-1, which consists of a thickness-tapered substrate sandwiched between two uniform thickness piezoelectric layers, and PVEH-2, which consists of a bimorph cantilever with a substrate of uniform thickness sandwiched between two thickness-tapered piezoelectric layers. In diaphragm-based PVEH, radial cuts are introduced to reshape it in identical slices (sectors) of 32.7o each resulting in improved harvested power. Further, a broadband energy harvester is designed using several slices of different central angles. Show more
• No Thumbnail Available Item Visual Object Tracking in Dynamic Scenes ( 2023 ) Francis, Mathew Show more Visual object tracking is one of the popular and legacy problems in computer vision. Tracking has applications in a wide spectrum of domains with applications in agriculture, automobile, surveillance, defence, and entertainment. It remains a challenging research problem on account of various factors like occlusions, shape deformations, illumination changes and background clutter. The object tracking performance depends on the joint efficiencies of a target object modeling scheme and a localization strategy. Accordingly, this thesis proposes three major contributions. First, a colour feature based representation that models the foreground while considering the background context. The target is further localized by using a meta-heuristic search strategy based on breeding fireflies. The breeding fireflies technique is realized through a combination of Real Coded Genetic Algorithm (RGA) and the Firefly Algorithm (FA). The second contribution involves target representation in the sparse representation framework. Here, the object is modeled using a (weighted) distribution of sparse codes. The weights are derived from a foreground-background classifier. Here, the target is localized by using the Firefly-RGA approach. The third contribution uses target representation using deep network embeddings. Here, a Siamese network is used to derive the object location predictions. Additionally, a multi-part object model is explored for handling occlusions. All three proposals use the appearance features to predict the object positions. Thus, complementary information is derived by inter-frame dense motion estimation. The motion based predictions are used to enhance the accuracy of the three proposed appearance based trackers. Thus, all the proposed trackers are realized in an ensemble framework of appearance and motion based predictions. The colour feature based tracker has an object model based on handcrafted features derived from colour distribution. The sparse representation-based tracker learns the model by using features from only the first frame of the sequence. In the Siamese tracker, a pre-trained deep network is used for extracting image features. The performances of the classical methods are limited by the feature used. For example, colour distribution-based features get disturbed by illumination changes and structure-based features face challenges from geometric transformations. In contrast, the deep network used in the Siamese tracker is trained on a very large set of general images (for image classification task) and is thus capable of generating rich feature representations. It is also observed that the Siamese tracker has significantly outperformed the other two trackers. The proposed trackers are benchmarked on the VOT2018, OTB2015 and UAV123 datasets and are compared against a number of baseline methods formulated in traditional and deep learning framework.

• No Thumbnail Available Item Design of Hybrid (De)multiplexers for Optical Interconnects on SOI Platform ( 2022 ) Minz, Manoranjan Show more The ever increasing data traffic due to technological advancements as well as increase in the number of users has ignited tremendous interest in the research and development of high performing computing systems. However, the performance increase is limited by the usage of electrical interconnects, as it suffers from high power dissipation and propagation delay. To overcome these issues optical interconnect has emerged as a viable solution owing to its low power consumption and potential for link capacity improvement by employing various multiplexing techniques such as wavelength division multiplexing (WDM), polarization division multiplexing (PDM), and mode-division multiplexing (MDM). Silicon photonics platform has attracted a lot of attention as it has enabled monolithic integration of photonics and microelectronics due to its compatibility with the standard complementary metal oxide semiconductor technology. Considering the demands of high-link capacity in the future, research is in progress to combine multiple multiplexing schemes to realize a multi-dimensional hybrid multiplexing technology. This thesis explores the design of such hybrid (de)multiplexers, which are based on the contra-directional coupling principle using periodic grating structures. To the best of our knowledge, for the first time, a grating assisted collaterally contra-directional coupled TE and TM MDMs are introduced using silicon slab waveguides. Then by cascading the TE and TM MDMs, a hybrid MDM-PDM device has been reported on silicon-on-insulator platform. The theory of supermodes has been utilized to determine a suitable gap between the waveguides such that contra-directional coupling occurs with low reflection at the input. Mathematical models of the proposed devices are presented with coupled-mode equations and their solutions. A hybrid MDM-WDM device is demonstrated using the buried strip waveguides and silicon grating structures by integrating the wavelength and mode division multiplexing schemes. To further increase the link capacity, PDM is combined with the MDM-WDM structure to realize a hybrid MDM-PDM-WDM device. The devices are designed and analyzed using the numerical finite-difference time-domain method. Show more
• No Thumbnail Available Item Condition Assessment of Natural Ester Oil and its Nanofluid filled Transformer ( 2022 ) Baruah, Niharika Show more This thesis presents the condition assessment of transformers filled with alternative dielectric fluids such as natural ester oil (NEO) and its nanofluids (NFs) by evaluating the oil properties. It also presents the development of a NEO modified with nanoparticles (NPs) with enhanced physicochemical, thermal and electrical performance for transformer application. The dissolved gas analysis (DGA) is performed to monitor the emission pattern of gases when the oil is subjected to thermal stress in a sealed beaker setup at 150oC. The classic Duval triangle, Dornenburg ratio, Rogers ratio and IEC method are applied to ascertain the type of incipient faults. The total dissolved combustible gases (TDCG) of the oils are done to examine the composition of combustible gases. To study of the ageing characteristics of the NEO, the frequency domain spectroscopy (FDS) is performed to obtain the dielectric parameters over a wide range of frequencies. The oil is subjected to thermal stress in an open beaker ageing test setup at 115oC for up to 500 hours, and samples are taken out at intervals of 100 hours for testing. A statistical model is developed to relate frequency, ageing duration and dielectric parameters based on the FDS results. The temperature dependence on the FDS characteristics of the dielectric liquids is also studied by considering semi-conductive titanium oxide (TiO2) NP dispersed in the base fluids, in the frequency range of 10-3 to 104 Hz and the temperature range from 30 to 90oC. The Cole-Cole double relaxation model is used to ascertain the number of relaxations in the samples. It is observed that the conductivity increases with increase in temperature for all the oil samples. A predictive analysis model is proposed using machine learning (ML) algorithms to predict the dielectric properties based on FDS. To understand the breakdown probability of the fresh and aged NEO and NEO-NFs, statistical analysis is carried out on the AC breakdown voltage (ACBDV) data. The ACBDV tests are performed for all the samples and a comparative examination is done among them to estimate the behaviour of the new and aged oils. To understand the statistical behaviour of the ACBDV of the oil samples, normal, 2-parameter Weibull and 3-parameter Weibull distributions are considered and hypothesis testing with Shapiro-Wilk test and Anderson-Darling test is carried out. The goodness of fit using the correlation coefficient shows that all the 4 oil datasets follow a 3-parameter Weibull distribution quite well. As NEOs are being advocated for usage in transformer applications, a new NEO is developed in this work known as the Pongamia pinnata oil (PPO). The crude PPO is modified by the transesterification process and converted to pongamia oil methyl ester (POME) as the crude oil is not suitable for direct use because of its high viscosity, high pour point and acid number. To enhance the properties further, an insulating hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) NP is used. The bulk h-BN NP of size 1 μm is exfoliated into 2-D nanosheets of size 50-100 nm subsequently to enhance the surface area of exfoliated h-BN (Eh-BN), which is then dispersed in the base fluid. The various thermophysical and electrical properties of NFs are also studied. The results of the POME are also compared with two more NEOs, one is the FR3 and the other is JAT and it is observed that the POME shows comparable results and thus may be used as a potential substitute to MO for transformer application.

• No Thumbnail Available Item Development of Robust State of Charge Estimation Algorithms for Lithium-ion Batteries in Electric Vehicles ( 2022 ) Sethia, Gautam Show more With increasing innovation and environmental awareness, electric vehicles (EVs) are becoming more popular than the conventional fuel based vehicles for emission-free future transportation. Lithium-ion battery (LIB) is the most suitable choice of energy storage system that works as the core of an EV. Along with the battery, a micro-controller known as battery management system (BMS) is required for reliable and secure operation of the battery. In BMS, real-time access to the information of one of the most critical battery states, known as state of charge (SOC), is vital as it indicates the remaining capacity of the battery, helps to prevent overcharging and undercharging, increases capacity utilization and lifespan, improves reliability, reduces cost, and ensures safety of the battery and its surroundings. Being an internal state, SOC is not available for direct measurement by any sensor and estimating it accurately for an LIB is non-trivial due to the highly nonlinear nature of the battery and various uncertain operating conditions. The literature reports several different approaches to estimate SOC of an LIB with each having its own advantages and drawbacks. It is important to note that each method of SOC estimation in literature possess some drawbacks either in accuracy or in real-time implementation. Hence, there is a scope for further improvement of these methods to enhance the performance of SOC estimation. Show more
• No Thumbnail Available Item (An) Intelligent Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure ( 2022 ) Sah, Bikash Show more Electric vehicle charging infrastructure is the foundation for ensuring wider acceptance of electric vehicles (EVs). Governments and organisations worldwide are working on policies for deeper penetration of EVs in the transportation sector. The infrastructure comprises various stakeholder who communicates with each other. The communication ensures an optimal operation of each entity in the infrastructure, meeting the requirements of all the stakeholders. Although the present electricity infrastructure is able to support the charging of EVs, there are challenges of integrating bidirectional power flow between EVs and electric grid, developing appropriate communication infrastructure and support systems, motivating users to perform coordinated charging, and options to utilise EVs for ancillary services. Apart from the challenges in the electric grid, the requirement of fast charge with constrained battery degradation is another major challenge to persuade user acceptance. Henceforth, the work presented in the thesis proposes controllers, algorithms, estimation procedures, and techniques to develop an intelligent infrastructure that can perform coordinated charging with the least disturbances in the electric grid and meet the requirement of fast charge with constrained degradation at the user end.

• No Thumbnail Available Item Digital Hologram Processing Methods and its Applications in Particle Imaging ( 2023 ) Ghosh, Anok Show more Digital holography is a three-dimensional imaging technique, which involves digital recording of a hologram as the intensity of interference pattern of an object scattered light and a reference light. The complex light field at the object plane is retrieved by numerical reconstruction of the hologram. As a result, digital holography provides both amplitude and quantitative phase imaging which is one of its unique features. Especially, digital in-line holographic microscopy (DIHM) has found its way in microscopic imaging applications and microfluidic studies due to its unique features and cost effectiveness. DIHM has found numerous applications in particle imaging due to its three-dimensional particle localization capability, compact and cost-effective experimental setup. The particle objects placed at any given distance between source to camera can be detected in reconstructed images numerically. In general, the reconstructed images in digital in-line holography suffers from twin image effect and background noise. This affect the particle detection and its size estimation accuracy. The improvement of reconstructed image quality can result in improved particle detection accuracy. Conventional reconstruction method takes high computation time for the accurate particle localization as the hologram reconstruction is required to be performed at different planes within the measurement. This problem can be overcome with a computationally efficient reconstruction algorithm. Accurate detection of object focal plane is of crucial importance in digital holography as it offers numerical autofocusing capability. In that context, establishing an appropriate autofocusing criteria is essential. Thus, taking these observations into consideration, a number of digital hologram processing algorithms are reported in the thesis. Novel hologram reconstruction algorithms are developed which provide computational efficiency without compromising the reconstruction quality. In the case of quantitative phase imaging, an important problem of phase unwrapping is addressed by developing an quality-guided, computationally efficient phase unwrapping algorithm. The thesis proposes different autofocusing algorithm for accurate detection of focal plane of amplitude, phase and mixed type objects. The performance of all these algorithms were evaluated and compared with state-of-art method with different simulation examples. Furthermore, practical validation of the algorithms were performed with experimental data. A comprehensive study on the particle size distribution of fly ash samples is also reported. We believe that the proposed hologram processing methods can be important additions in the field of digital holography. Show more
• No Thumbnail Available Item Design of CMOS Integrated Circuits for Full-Duplex Radios ( 2021 ) Sharma, Prateek Kumar Show more In-band Full-duplex (FD) radio is an emerging technology, which transmits and receives the signal simultaneously at the same frequency. FD has the potential of doubling the throughput with low latency. The main challenge associated with an FD system is the self-interference (SI). The SI in an FD radio is caused by the leakage and the echo signals from the transmitter to its own receiver. Due to the direct or the parasitic path, the transmitted signal gets leaked into the receiver in an FD radio. Whereas an echo signal occurs due to the reflection of the transmitted signal in free space. The large in-band SI signal makes the demodulation of the weak desired signal a hard task. To mitigate the problem of SI in an FD radio, an SI canceling circuit which generates an SI canceling signal is often used. The SI canceling circuit should be capable of providing variable attenuation, variable time-delay, and variable phase delay. Apart from the SI signal, blockers from different bands can degrade the performance of the FD receiver, especially in the sub-6 GHz range. The main objective of this research is to investigate the fully integrated circuit techniques for SI cancellation in FD receivers Show more
