Efficient design of approximate carry-based sum calculating full adders for error-tolerant applications

10.11591/ijict.v14i3.pp1189-1198
Badiganchela Shiva Kumar , Galiveeti Umamaheswara Reddy
Approximate computing is an innovative circuit design approach which can be applied in error-tolerant applications. This strategy introduces errors in computation to reduce an area and delay. The major power-consuming elements of full adder are XOR, AND, and OR operations. The sum computation in a conventional full adder is modified to produce an approximate sum which is calculated based on carry term. The major advantage of a proposed adder is the approximation error does not propagate to the next stages due to the error only in the sum term. The proposed adder was coded in verilog HDL and verified for different bit sizes. Results show that the proposed adder reduces hardware complexity with delay requirements.

Escalating QoS by firefly optimization of CGSTEB routing protocol with subordinate energy alert gateways

10.12928/telkomnika.v23i6.27007
R.; Vel Tech Rangarajan Dr.Sagunthala R&D Institute of Science and Technology Madonna Arieth , Ramya; Vellore Institute of Technology (VIT) Govindaraj , Subrata; Sri Venkateswara College of Engineering and Technology (A) Chowdhury , Thu; Hanoi University of Industry Thi Nguyen , Tran; Phenikaa University Duc-Tan
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) comprise large numbers of sensor nodes that are highly constrained by limited battery power, making energy-efficient routing essential for sustaining network lifetime and service quality. Among existing solutions, the general self-organized tree-based energy balancing (GSTEB) pro tocol with clustering has been widely adopted for energy-aware communication. However, GSTEB and its clustered variant often suffer from energy imbalance, high packet loss, and reduced quality of service (QoS) due to excessive load on cluster heads (CHs). To address these challenges, this paper introduces an enhanced routing framework that integrates firefly optimization with clustered GSTEB(CGSTEB)andintroduces subordinate energy alert gateways (SEAGs). The firefly algorithm is applied to optimize CH selection through a fitness func tion that balances residual energy and node proximity, ensuring efficient cluster formation and adaptive load distribution. Meanwhile, SEAGs establish a two hop communication model between CHs and the base station (BS), reducing CH energy consumption and preventing premature node failures. Simulation exper iments conducted in NS2 demonstrate that the proposed firefly-CGSTEB with SEAG significantly improves QoS metrics, including network lifetime, energy utilization, throughput, and packet loss rate, compared with conventional CG STEB. These results confirm the effectiveness of combining metaheuristic opti mization with gateway-assisted routing for resilient and energy-efficient WSNs.

10.11591/ijict.v14i3.pp822-829
Blesso Abraham , Thirumalaivasal Devanathan Sudhakar
Using a physics informed neural network for the analysis of geopolymers as an alternate material for cement can be a viable approach, as neural networks are capable of modeling complex, nonlinear relationships in data, which can be beneficial for representing the dynamics of chemical properties. If you have a substantial amount of theoretical data, a neural network can learn patterns and relationships in the data, even when the underlying system dynamics are not well-defined or are difficult to model analytically. A welltrained neural network can generalize from the training data to make predictions for unseen scenarios, which can be useful for real-time analysis of the material.

Enhanced speed regulation using separate P and I gain controllers in a fuzzy-PI framework

10.11591/ijpeds.v16.i4.pp2280-2295
Minh Duc Pham , Duong Nguyen Trong Qui , Truong Phuoc Hoa
This paper explores an enhanced method for regulating the speed of brushless DC (BLDC) motors using field-oriented control. Conventionally, a proportional-integral (PI) controller is employed to adjust output speed and current FOC method. While the PI controller is effective in many scenarios, it exhibits limitations including poor performance when the speed reference changes rapidly. To address these limitations, a fuzzy-PI control scheme is proposed in this study with the aim of improving the speed control performance of BLDC motors, especially under rapidly changing speed reference. The proposed two separate fuzzy logic controllers adaptively adjust the proportional and integral gains so that it combines the robustness of fuzzy logic with the steady-state error of PI control. Simulation and experimental results demonstrate that the fuzzy-PI control significantly outperforms the conventional PI controller in terms of BLDC stability, response time, and accuracy. The proposed approach ensures more reliable and efficient speed regulation for BLDC motors, making it a reliable solution for applications where speed reference fluctuate frequently.

Soil moisture, defined as the amount of water present in the spaces between soil particles, plays a critical role in plant growth. Excessive soil moisture can lead to issues such as root rot, deviating from the ideal conditions required for root absorption. To address this, we developed a prototype tool using the YL-69 soil moisture sensor to monitor and control the soil moisture levels in Agarwood/Gaharu tree planting media. The prototype was designed to activate a water pump when soil moisture exceeded 80%, ensuring optimal humidity for plant growth. Once the moisture level dropped below 80%, the pump was deactivated to prevent overwatering. The YL-69 sensor demonstrated an accuracy of 88.76% under controlled conditions. This study highlights the potential of using low-cost sensors for automated soil moisture management in small-scale Gaharu cultivation.

Brushless DC (BLDC) motors are widely used in applications where high efficiency is crucial. With advancements in permanent magnet technology, BLDC motors are increasingly suitable for high-torque applications such as residential elevators. Known for their high efficiency, low maintenance, and excellent controllability, BLDC motors are ideal candidates for this research. However, the challenge lies in identifying the most efficient rotor structure that can deliver the required torque for residential elevator applications while maintaining cost-effectiveness and compact design. This paper addresses this problem by simulating various rotor types of BLDC motors using the finite element method (FEM), Ansys Maxwell. four different rotor structures have been analyzed to evaluate their back electromotive force (EMF) and torque. The model generating the highest torque will be selected for manufacturing as a motor for residential elevators. Among the models studied, BLDC-ERA rotor structures produced the highest torque of 28 Nm, while BLDC-HR type generates the lowest torque. To ensure practicality and cost-effectiveness of installing elevators in double-story houses or smaller residences, the selected motor must be compact and affordable, enabling senior citizen to maintain their independence. This research not only aids other researchers in designing suitable motors for elevator applications but also contributes to societal well-being by promoting accessibility and independence for the elderly.

10.11591/ijict.v14i3.pp1136-1145
Borislava Toleva
The initial step in determining the number of principal components for both classification and regression involves evaluating how much each component contributes to the total variance in the data. Based on this analysis, a subset of components that explains the highest percentage of variance is typically selected. However, multiple valid combinations may exist, and the final choice is often made manually by the researcher. This study introduces a novel yet straightforward algorithm for the automatic selection of the number of principal components. By integrating ANOVA and bootstrapping with principal component analysis (PCA), the proposed method enables automatic component selection in classification tasks. The algorithm is evaluated using three publicly available datasets and applied with both decision tree and support vector machine (SVM) classifiers. Results indicate that this automated procedure not only eliminates researcher bias in selecting components but also improves classification accuracy. Unlike traditional methods, it selects a single optimal combination of principal components without manual intervention, offering a new and efficient approach to PCAbased model development.

Fuzzy logic-based adaptive PLL switching strategy for voltage control in DVR assisted grid tied PV systems

10.11591/ijpeds.v16.i4.pp2353-2368
R. Srilakshmi , V. Chayapathy
This study aims to enhance power quality in grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) systems by introducing an intelligent fuzzy logic-based adaptive control strategy for dynamic PLL switching in a DVR-supported configuration. A 100-kW grid-tied PV system is modeled with a digital phase-locked loop (DPLL), a conventional synchronous reference frame PLL (CTPLL), and a dynamic voltage restorer (DVR). A Mamdani-type fuzzy inference system (FIS) performs real-time PLL selection based on phase-wise real-time fault monitoring. The system was tested under symmetrical and asymmetrical 20% sag and swell conditions, evaluating voltage stability at both PCC and load, total harmonic distortion (THD), recovery time, and synchronization accuracy. Results show that the proposed method reduces unnecessary DVR voltage injection from ~50 V to ~5-6 V under healthy conditions, maintains a near-unity power factor (< 0.95), and achieves up to 15% THD reduction in inverter current and PCC currents compared to DPLL-only operation. Recovery times improved by up to 25%, with stable synchronization maintained in all fault cases. The integration of adaptive PLL switching and targeted DVR activation offers a novel, hardware-efficient approach to harmonic suppression, voltage stabilization, and fault resilience in medium-scale PV systems.
