Multiway Relay Based Framework for Network Coding in Multi-Hop WSNs

In today’s information technology(IT)world,the multi-hop wireless sensor networks(MHWSNs)are considered the building block for the Internet of Things(IoT)enabled communication systems for controlling everyday tasks of organizations and industry to provide quality of service(QoS)in a stipulated time slot to end-user over the Internet.Smart city(SC)is an example of one such application which can automate a group of civil services like automatic control of traffic lights,weather prediction,surveillance,etc.,in our daily life.These IoT-based networks with multi-hop communication and multiple sink nodes provide efficient communication in terms of performance parameters such as throughput,energy efficiency,and end-to-end delay,wherein low latency is considered a challenging issue in next-generation networks(NGN).This paper introduces a single and parallels stable server queuing model with amulti-class of packets and native and coded packet flowto illustrate the simple chain topology and complexmultiway relay(MWR)node with specific neighbor topology.Further,for improving data transmission capacity inMHWSNs,an analytical framework for packet transmission using network coding at the MWR node in the network layer with opportunistic listening is performed by considering bi-directional network flow at the MWR node.Finally,the accuracy of the proposed multi-server multi-class queuing model is evaluated with and without network coding at the network layer by transmitting data packets.The results of the proposed analytical framework are validated and proved effective by comparing these analytical results to simulation results.

An Evolutionary Normalization Algorithm for Signed Floating-Point Multiply-Accumulate Operation

In the era of digital signal processing,like graphics and computation systems,multiplication-accumulation is one of the prime operations.A MAC unit is a vital component of a digital system,like different Fast Fourier Transform(FFT)algorithms,convolution,image processing algorithms,etcetera.In the domain of digital signal processing,the use of normalization architecture is very vast.The main objective of using normalization is to performcomparison and shift operations.In this research paper,an evolutionary approach for designing an optimized normalization algorithm is proposed using basic logical blocks such as Multiplexer,Adder etc.The proposed normalization algorithm is further used in designing an 8×8 bit Signed Floating-Point Multiply-Accumulate(SFMAC)architecture.Since the SFMAC can accept an 8-bit significand and a 3-bit exponent,the input to the said architecture can be somewhere between−(7.96872)_(10) to+(7.96872)_(10).The proposed architecture is designed and implemented using the Cadence Virtuoso using 90 and 130 nm technologies(in Generic Process Design Kit(GPDK)and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company(TSMC),respectively).To reduce the power consumption of the proposed normalization architecture,techniques such as“block enabling”and“clock gating”are used rigorously.According to the analysis done on Cadence,the proposed architecture uses the least amount of power compared to its current predecessors.

Fuzzy System Design Using Current Amplifier for 20 nm CMOS Technology

In the recent decade,different researchers have performed hardware implementation for different applications covering various areas of experts.In this research paper,a novel analog design and implementation of different steps of fuzzy systems with current differencing buffered amplifier(CDBA)are proposed with a compact structure that can be used in many signal processing applications.The proposed circuits are capable of wide input current range,simple structure,and are highly linear.Different electrical parameters were compared for the proposed fuzzy system when using different membership functions.The novelty of this paper lies in the electronic implementation of different steps for realizing a fuzzy system using current amplifiers.When the power supply voltage of CDBA is 2V,it results in 155mW,power dissipation;4.615KΩ,input resistance;366KΩ,output resistances;and 189.09 dB,common-mode rejection ratio.A 155.519 dB,voltage gain,and 0.76V/μs,the slew rate is analyzed when the power supply voltage of CDBAis 3V.The fuzzy system is realized in 20nm CMOS technology and investigated with an output signal of high precision and high speed,illustrating that it is suitable for realtime applications.In this research paper,a consequence of feedback resistance on the adder circuit and the defuzzified circuit is also analyzed and the best results are obtained using 100K resistance.The structure has a low hardware complexity leading to a low delay and a rather high quality.
