This article investigates different versions of a new multi-band micro-strip antenna design. NASA inspired the antenna design from “Hand of God” galaxy discovery. A multi-band operation between 0.15 and 8 [GHz] is obtained and captures up to 10 frequency bands. The antenna has a small area of 4 x 5 cm2 and is printed on…

Digitization is viewed as the capability to utilize digital technologies for generating processing, sharing and transacting information. Studies show that digitization has now become ubiquitous. In almost all the sectors, we routinely interact with digital technologies. As a result, the impact of digitization is being observed in such sectors. For instance, the positive impact of…

The article proposes a Digital Predistortion (DPD) methodology that substantially meliorates the linearity of limited range Mobile Front Haul links for the extant Long-Term Evolution (LTE) and future (5G) networks. Specifically, the DPD is employed to Radio over Fiber links that contrive of Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Lasers (VCSELs) working at 850 nm. Both, Memory…

The task of fuzzy mathematical modeling of the composition of a polymer composition is singled out and formulated, as one of the types of chemical-technological systems for creating the theoretical foundations for managing the physicochemical properties of the material produced from this composition. Fuzzy data on the technical functions and concentration of individual ingredients that…

Recently, wireless sensor network (WSN) gets more concern due to the robustness in the latest communication technology iteration such as big data, IoT and 5G. Such daily usage of these technologies includes smart home, smart farming, smart traffic control etc. Moreover, WSN becomes the best preference for mobile objects in data accumulating in a wild…

Currently, information security is among the main characteristics that must be achieved within the security of private and public organizations worldwide. For this reason, globally recognized algorithms such as the AES, IDEA, RC5, DES, RSA are researched with the aim of identifying the most suitable and obtaining a greater degree of security and speed of…

Vowel classification is an essential part of speech recognition. In classical studies, this problem is mostly handled by using spectral domain features. In this study, a novel approach is proposed for vowel classification based on the visual features of speech waveforms. In sound vocalizing, the position of certain organs of the human vocal system such…

Wireless communication opens up new avenues in the field of intelligent vehicle systems, including monitoring, guidance and warning applications. In order to determine more precisely the feasibility of using the 802.11n standard in vehicular communication systems, this paper describes a process for evaluating the propagation performance of the 802.11n and 802.11p standards. To do that,…

It is high time to control and prevent power theft by manipulating the meter reading and tampering of the meter. It is possible to deal power theft by developing Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) and smart grids. For most of the distribution companies, utility smart meters’ data is serving as wealthy source of information beyond billing.…

Bitcoin is a popular crypto currency that is used as a mode of investment and a medium for trading goods and services. Anonymity, security and decentralization are significant features of Bitcoin. This creates several opportunities for criminals to involve in illegal and fraudulent activities. This research study aimed to automate the process of gaining the…

Relational database management systems (RDBMS) have been imposed for more than three decades as a facto standard for data storage, management, and analysis. They have a good reputation by supporting ACID properties (Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, and Durability) and by adopting the SQL language which has become a standardized language. However, despite their power, RDBMS have…

Time scheduling as seen in timetabling processes with few and/or competing resources has exposed complex interoperable time scheduling. Attempts to resolving these time scheduling processes has been undertaken, using several classical methods, with difficulty due to inherent complexities, constraints and conflicting issues. The use of ontology-based approaches to resolve time complexity is recently adopted due…

The distribution of bit patterns is an important measure to check the randomness of a sequence. The authors of this paper observed this crucial property in a binary sequence which generated by using a primitive polynomial, trace function, and Legendre symbol defined over the sub extension field. The authors create a new dimension in the…

We examine design principles from more than 20 years of experience in the implementation and protection of mission critical flight systems used by the Mission Design and Navigation Section at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory. Spacecraft navigation has rigorous requirements for completeness and accuracy, often under critical and uncompromising time pressure. Fault tolerant and robust design…

Location-based service has been widely used in modern life. It brings a lot of convenience to our lives. Improving the accuracy of location prediction can provide better location- based service. We propose a location prediction method based on the variable-order Markov model with time feature and user’s spatio-temporal rule. First, the user’s trajectory data needs…

The traditional long-term evolved (LTE) network architecture faces major challenges due to the rapid development of mobile intelligent applications. Evolved packet core (EPC) network, as the core network of the LTE system, faces the same problem as well. In this paper, we propose an innovative EPC architecture, i.e., Not only stack (NOS)-EPC, in which we…

Noise control is essential when applying speech recognition in noisy environments such as factories. In this study, a signal processing for noise cancellation is proposed by using a noise-insensitive bone-conducted speech signal together with an air-conducted speech signal. The speech signal is generally expressed by a nonlinear model. The extended Kalman filter is very famous…

There are various software related to the implementation of IT Service Management (ITSM) for a company, including those that are open source and commercial. An input is needed for companies in determining what software to choose from various software, especially for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that have limited human and financial resources. In this…
