Abstract Global food security is a pressing issue that affects the stability and well-being of communities worldwide. While existing Internet of Things (IoT) enabled plant monitoring systems have made significant strides in agricultural monitoring, they often face limitations such as high power consumption, restricted mobility, complex deployment requirements, and inadequate security measures for data access. This paper introduces an enhanced IoT application for agricultural monitoring systems that address these critical shortcomings. Our system strategically combines power efficiency, portability, and secure access capabilities, assisting farmers in monitoring and tracking crop environmental conditions. The proposed system includes a… More >

Abstract In order to fully utilize the regenerative braking energy of metro trains and stabilize the metro DC traction busbar voltage, a hybrid regenerative braking energy recovery system with a dual-mode power management strategy is proposed. Firstly, the construction of the hybrid regenerative braking energy recovery system is explained. Then, based on the power demand of low-voltage load in metro stations, a dual-mode power management strategy is proposed to allocate the reference power of each system according to the different working conditions, and the control methods of each system are set. Finally, the correctness and effectiveness More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract Minimizing the energy consumption to increase the life span and performance of multiprocessor system on chip (MPSoC) has become an integral chip design issue for multiprocessor systems. The performance measurement of computational systems is changing with the advancement in technology. Due to shrinking and smaller chip size power densities on-chip are increasing rapidly that increasing chip temperature in multi-core embedded technologies. The operating speed of the device decreases when power consumption reaches a threshold that causes a delay in complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) circuits because high on-chip temperature adversely affects the life span of… More >

Abstract Increasing the life span and efficiency of Multiprocessor System on Chip (MPSoC) by reducing power and energy utilization has become a critical chip design challenge for multiprocessor systems. With the advancement of technology, the performance management of central processing unit (CPU) is changing. Power densities and thermal effects are quickly increasing in multi-core embedded technologies due to shrinking of chip size. When energy consumption reaches a threshold that creates a delay in complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) circuits and reduces the speed by 10%–15% because excessive on-chip temperature shortens the chip’s life cycle. In this… More >

Abstract Recently, free space optical (FSO) communication is gaining much attention towards the research community. The reason for this attention is the promises of high data-rate, license-free deployment, and non-interfering links. It can, however, give rise to major system difficulties concerning alignment and atmospheric turbulence. FSO is the degradation in the signal quality because of atmospheric channel impairments and conditions. The worst effect is due to fog particles. Though, Radio Frequency (RF) links are able to transmit the data in foggy conditions but not in rain. To overcome these issues related to both the FSO and… More >

Abstract Energy harvesting (EH) technology in wireless communication is a promising approach to extend the lifetime of future wireless networks. A cross-layer optimal adaptation policy for a point-to-point energy harvesting (EH) wireless communication system with finite buffer constraints over a Rayleigh fading channel based on a Semi-Markov Decision Process (SMDP) is investigated. Most adaptation strategies in the literature are based on channel-dependent adaptation. However, besides considering the channel, the state of the energy capacitor and the data buffer are also involved when proposing a dynamic modulation policy for EH wireless networks. Unlike the channel-dependent policy, which… More >
