Power Quality Improvement of Distribution system with Dispersed Generation using Novel Algorithem for Islanding Control and Detection Processes

REA Auditado

Distribution engineers investigate economical and technical feasibility of new capacity expansion alternatives. Distributed generation (DG) can be used effectively to support the customer’s power quality requirements. DG is an imperative tool that can partially replace the need to erect new generating stations in order to cope with the increasing load demands.However, numerous complexities arise like parallel operation of DG within existing system, phenomena of islanding and its detection, micro grid operation, monitoring and control etc.

BLIND DECONVOLATION OF STILL IMAGES USING HYBRID COMPUTING

REA Auditado

Restoration of images degraded by unknown blur is a difficult problem. It is called blind image restoration. The unknown blur can be of linear or nonlinear nature. It can also be space invariant or space variant making the blind image restoration problem all the more challenging. Sometimes it is necessary to simultaneously identify the blur and restore the image, a problem that we have addressed in this thesis. The assumption is that coefficients of image model are controlled by autoregressive(AR) process while that of blurring model are controlled by moving average (MA) process.

A Secure Network Architecture for Net Centric Operations

REA Auditado

The thesis presents a secure communication architecture for net centric operations which is a relatively new paradigm for gaining superiority in the battlefield.The net centric operation (NCO) dictates communication as an enterprise to maximize performance for reducing the cost by optimally allocating resources and functionality across terrestrial, air and space layers.The net centric operation connects sensors, communications systems and weapons’ systems on information grid for providing real time information to war fighters, policy makers and support personnel.

Time Frequency Analysis Using Neural Networks

REA Auditado

The thesis is divided in three parts. In the rst part, it explores and discusses the diversity of concepts and motivations for obtaining good resolution and highly concentrated timefrequency distributions (TFDs) for the research community.The description of the methods used for TFDs’ objective assessment is provided later in this part.
In the second part, a novel multiprocesses ANN based framework to obtain highly concentrated TFDs is proposed.

Power Flow Control Strategy at the Load Bus in the presence of Dispersed Generation

REA Auditado

Due to increased proliferation of sensitive loads in the distribution network, voltage sags, swells and phase jumps mitigation has become the focus of power quality (PQ) research. This reduces its adverse economical impact. Equipment sensitivity curve shows that small duration outage of one-cycle is tolerable for sensitive loads. Therefore, the control system should be capable for voltage sag detection and mitigation in less than 20 ms at 50 Hz.
There are various custom power devices for protecting industrial processes against voltage sags.

Efficient Correlation Algorithm for Gaze Direction & Head Gesture

REA Auditado

The aim of this thesis is to explore new applications in the area of human computer interaction and to propose solution for these applications based upon gaze direction and head gesture. Gaze direction and head gesture are considered as input modalities for human computer interaction with different degree of freedom and different capabilities.
Gaze direction estimation is achieved by subsequent stages: face detection, eye detection, eye gaze estimation and coordinate mapping for interaction of gaze over natural world surface.

PAPR Reduction in OFDM System

REA Auditado

One of the major drawbacks of OFDM has been the high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) that is characteristic of signals with multiple sub-carriers.The
high PAPR requires additional back off to achieve linear amplification at the transmitter end which results in inefficient power consumption.This inefficient power consumption is the major impediment in implementing OFDM in portable device.

Adaptive Edge-Enhanced Correlation Based Robust And Real-Time Visual Tracking Framework And Its Deployment In Machine Vision Systems

REA Auditado

An adaptive edge-enhanced correlation based robust and real-time visual tracking framework, and two machine vision systems based on the framework are proposed. The visual tracking algorithm can track any object of interest in a video acquired from a stationary or moving camera. It can handle the real-world problems, such as noise, clutter, occlusion, uneven illumination, varying appearance, orientation, scale, and velocity of the maneuvering object, and object fading and obscuration in low contrast video at various zoom levels.
