Abstract Privacy of data in Internet of Things (IoT) over fog networks is the biggest challenge in security of Wireless communication networks. In Wireless Sensor Network (WSN), current research on fog computing with IoT is gaining popularity among IoT devices over network. Moreover, the data aggregation will reduce the energy consumption in WSN. Due to the open and hostile nature of WSN, secure data aggregation is the major issue. The existing data aggregation methods in IoT and its associated approaches are lack of limited aggregation functions, heavyweight, issues related to the performance overhead. Besides, the overload on fog node will result… More >

Abstract Cellular systems utilize single and multicarrier waveforms for high-speed data transmission. The Fifth-Generation (5G) system proposes several techniques based on multicarrier waveforms. However, the Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR) is one of the significant concerns in advanced waveforms as it degrades the framework's efficiency. Non Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA) can provide massive connectivity, which is the crucial requirement of the Internet of Things (IoT). The 3^rd generation tested NOMA applications in downlink and uplink transmission. However, NOMA uplink transmission in the power domain has performance degradation and is not considered a possible technique in 3^rd generation power projects (3GPP).… More >

Abstract The hybrid renewable energy harvesting and grid integration system has been proposed and validated in this work. The proposed system uses a Wind Energy Conversion System (WECS) and a Solar Photo Voltaic Energy Conversion System (SPVECS). The WECS uses Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (PMSG) driven by a wind turbine. The variable frequency and variable voltage output of PMSG is rectified by Diode Bridge Rectifier (DBR) and stepped up by Super Lift Luo Converter (SLLC 1), and finally, the harvested wind energy is delivered to the Direct Current (DC) link of a Distributed Static Synchronous Compensator (DSTATCOM). Further, SPV energy is… More >

Abstract Reversible Data Hiding (RDH) is the process of transferring secret data hidden inside cover media to the recipient so the recipient can securely retrieve both the secret data and cover media. The RDH approach is applied in this study in the field of telemedicine, and medical-secret data is conveyed privately via medical cover video. Morse code-based data encryption technique tends to encrypt the medical-secret data by compression using the Arithmetic coding technique. Discrete Shearlet transform (DST) compresses the selected frame from the medical cover video and the compressed secret data is embedded into the compressed frame using logical operations. On… More >

Abstract The physical and the mental health of a human being largely depends upon his physical life-routine (PLR) and today’s much advanced technological methods make it possible to recognize and keep track of an individual’s PLR. With the successful and accurate recognition of PLR, a sublime service of health education can be made copious. In this regard, smartphones can play a vital role as they are ubiquitous and have utilitarian sensors embedded in them. In this paper, we propose a framework that extracts the features from the smartphone sensors data and then uses the sequential feature selection to select the most… More >

Abstract In this paper, efficient charging of electric vehicle battery from a considered renewable solar photovoltaic source with the help of a modified Z source with efficient boosting topology. Adapting this Z-source converter to act as a voltage gainer with a boosting function allows a solar Photovoltaic (PV) input voltage of 25VDC (Volts Direct Current) to be increased to a designed output voltage of 75VDC at a low duty ratio, resulting in minimal switching loss. The closed-loop steady-state and transient parameters at the output were analyzed and compared using modern evolutionary algorithms. The power range upheld throughout the circuit is around… More >

Abstract Wind power conversion systems play a significant position in grid-coupled renewable source networks. In this paper, a permanent magnet based synchronous alternator type wind energy scheme is considered for analysis. The enhanced performance of wind power conversion could be reached by improving maximum power point tracking (MPPT) and by modernising the control circuit of the power electronic circuit. The main task is to enrich its performance level by proposing fuzzy gain scheduling (FGS) based optimal torque management for maximum power point tracking. In addition to the improved MPPT, this article analyses different topologies of direct current–direct current (DC–DC) converters such… More >

Abstract This study proposes an intelligent remedial learning framework to improve students’ learning effectiveness. Basically, this framework combines a genetic algorithm with a concept map in order to select a set of remedial learning units according to students’ weaknesses of learning concepts. In the proposed algorithm, a concept map serves to represent the knowledge structure of learning concepts, and a genetic algorithm performs an iteratively evolutionary procedure in order to establish remedial learning materials based on students’ understanding of these learning concepts. This study also conducted simulations in order to validate the proposed framework using artificially generated data sets, and problematic… More >
