This work aimed at designing and implementation of Shunt Active Power Filter (SAPF) for power quality improvement through harmonic reduction. The current harmonics are being caused by nonlinear characteristic of power electronic...
Over the years, the issue of banking fraud has become a very huge problem in the banking system of today. The percentage of banking fraud has risen greatly day-by-day by the cyber criminals coming up with different strategies su...
This thesis presents the development of novel digital image watermarking technique for the shielding of intellectual property rights of digital images. Because of their digital nature, multimedia data can be duplicated, modified...
This thesis presents the development of smell agent optimization (SAO) algorithm. The developed algorithm consists of three modes (sniffing, trailing and random modes). The evaporation of smell molecules from the smell source is...
This research work presents the development of branch current based state estimation for Non- Technical Losses (NTLs) Detection and Localization. The use of weighted least square (WLS) state estimation for the evaluation of bran...
This research work presents a scheme that identifies line outage and generator outage using contigency analysis and effectively splits the network into a set of predefined islands, with a load shedding strategy to minimise the a...
This study shows how to monitor the movement of cattle using wireless sensor nodes powered by a renewable energy source capable of detecting location, and incorporated in it all the available mobile networks to ensure that infor...
Femtocells are overlayed on existing Macrocells to form Macro-Femto heterogeneous network (HetNet), to reduce cost of mounting expensive macrocell nodes, improve cellular network capacity and throughput performance. However, Het...
This research presents the development of a Frangi filter and first-order derivative of Gaussian (FF-FDOG) based power line detection (PLD) algorithm as an improvement to the standard PLD algorithm. Vision-based PLD is important...
Energy conservation in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is a key area of research aimed at addressing the challenge of efficient energy utilization. This is due to the fact that the Sensor Nodes (SNs) have limited energy. The lim...
