Enhancing OFDM Performance Using Wavelet Transform Techniques in Wireless Systems
Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) technique has attracted major interest because of its robustness to time selective channels and its aptitude to accomplish high data rate. OFDM is the fundamental solution in 4G and 5G systems due to its simplicity of implementation and effectiveness in severe environments. Traditionally the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) algorithm is adopted to implement OFDM transmitter. Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) is recognized as an improvement to Discrete Fourier Transform; therefore, many academics proposed it as alternative approach to FFT in OFDM transmission system. We propose to study the impact of DWT on the performance of the OFDM transmission system considering various modulation techniques and order in noisy and fading environments. We implement two approaches namely OFDM-FFT and OFDM-DWT, their performances respective are studied and compared. Through simulation examples, we notice the improvements obtained by performing the wavelet transform. The wavelet-based OFDM techniques perform better than OFDM-FFT. The results obtained demonstrate the improvements achieved by adopting the wavelet transform relatively to the FFT for all evaluation metrics used. OFDM-DWT cancels interferences, as we can learn from constellation diagrams, where symbols are delimited in their original zones. OFDM-DWT performs the lowest bit error rate (BER) and a reduced Complementary Cumulative Distribution Function (CCDF) of the Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR)

Speed Control of the Pentaphase Asynchronous Machine: Comparative Study Between Vector Control with Conventional PI and Fuzzy PI
Controlling asynchronous machines is complex because of the non-linearity of the model and the coupling between stator and rotor quantities. Thanks to advances in power electronics, decoupled control techniques have been developed to reproduce the performance of DC machines, while eliminating mechanical constraints. However, in the case of polyphase machines, these control strategies remain limited due of the harmonics generated by the inverter, which degrade power quality. To address this issue, a new fuzzy logic control strategy is proposed, aimed at reducing parasitic currents and improving dynamic performance in a five-phase asynchronous machine. A comparison between vector control using conventional PI and fuzzy PI is considered, based on the dynamic responses of speed, torque and harmonic distortion rate, especially under load variations and during rotational reversals. The simulation results obtained in MATLAB demonstrate a significant enhancement in speed stability and a reduction in ripples, confirming the effectiveness of the proposed approach

Reduction of Speed Ripples in a Polyphase Motor Using Adaptive Gain Fuzzy Control
Multiphase motors are increasingly used in high-performance industrial applications due to their improved efficiency, reliability and fault tolerance compared to traditional three-phase machines. However, one of the persistent challenges in their control is the presence of speed ripples, which can degrade performance, increase mechanical stress and reduce system life time. This paper proposes a control strategy based on adaptive gain fuzzy logic applied to the vector control of a five-phase motor. Unlike conventional fixed-gain controllers, this approach allows the controller gains to be dynamically adjusted according to the state of the system, thus increasing robustness to disturbances and load variations. Fuzzy logic enables the controller's behaviour to be modelled according to linguistic rules inspired by human expertise, making the system more responsive and intelligent. Simulation results obtained using Matlab show a significant improvement in speed stability and a marked reduction in ripples, confirming the effectiveness of the proposed method.. Keywords – PI- controller; five-phase asynchronous machine; fuzzy logic, speed oscillations.

Analysis of FFT and DWT Based OFDM Techniques for improving Wireless Communication Performance
The need for high-speed wireless telecommunications services has renewed attention to multi-carrier modulation, more explicitly the Orthogonal Frequency Division multiplexing (OFDM). The excellent performance of the OFDM in mitigating multipath propagation allowed its integration in current and future telecommunication system. Fast Fourier Transform based OFDM is widely used in standards such as LTE and Wi-Fi, and DVB. The OFDM simplicity and robustness beside multipath fading and high transmission efficiency makes it an attractive technique. To further enhance the OFDM performances, Discreet Wavelet Transform (DWT) is adopted as alternative to the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) in the modem. DWT-based OFDM is gaining more attention in academic research for its potential performance advantages. DWT-based OFDM is more resilient to interference and channel dispersion owed to its multi-resolution abilities and good localization in both time and frequency. FFT-based OFDM is more sensitive and depend on the Cyclic Prefix (CP) to handle such impairments. We propose an analyze of the impact of DWT on the OFDM transmission system. The simulations we carried out allowed us to highlight the improvements obtained by the OFDM-DWT in term of the Bit Error Rate (BER) and Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR), relatively to the OFDM-FFT. Among the wavelet types studied, the Haar wavelet provides the best performances.

Analysis of a Circular Printed Antenna With Air Gap Using Chebyshev Basis Functions
Abstract – The resonant frequency and bandwidth of a printed antenna can be modified by varying the physical parameters of the structure. The circular printed antenna with an air-gap proposed here enables these characteristics to be modified without having to design and build a new printed antenna. Its resonant frequency can be modified by adjusting the height of the air gap between the substrate of the radiating element and the ground plane. In addition, the presence of an air gap significantly increases the bandwidth of the a printed antenna. Our first step was to characterize the resonance and bandwidth of this type of antenna theoretically, using the integral equation technique, the moments method via the Galerkin procedure applicable for numerical resolution. To achieve this, the mode systems (TM, TE) derived from the cavity model were used as Chebyshev basis functions to present the current distribution on the conductive disk. Our results are in good agreement with the theoretical results previously published in the literature. In order to validate this study, practical realizations of this type of structure were carried out at the IUT de Chartres -Institut PRISME- to compare our results with real measurements. Good agreement was again found, confirming the interest of this type of antenna. Keywords – air-gap ; physical parameters ; Chebyshev Basis Functions ; Galerkin procedure; theoretical results

The Morphological Analysis of Human Skin Layers Using Computational Image Segmentation
The human skin, being the largest organ of the body, plays a pivotal role in maintaining homeostasis and protecting the body from external threats. Understanding the morphology and composition of skin layers is essential for both medical and cosmetic applications. This study focuses on the morphological analysis of human skin layers utilizing advanced computational image segmentation techniques. The primary objectives of this research are twofold: first, to develop a robust computational image segmentation framework for accurately delineating the distinct layers of human skin, and second, to perform a comprehensive morphological analysis of these skin layers. The study leverages cutting-edge machine learning algorithms and image processing methodologies to achieve these objectives. To achieve accurate image segmentation, a combination of deep learning models and traditional image processing techniques is employed. Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) are trained on a dataset of high-resolution skin images to segment the epidermis, dermis, and subcutaneous layers. Post-processing steps, such as morphological operations and edge detection, are applied to refine the segmentation results.

An improved learning algorithm for training neural network based lattice equalizer
In nonlinear channel equalization, artificial neural networks (ANN) have attracted a significant interest. The ANN's primary drawback is their intensive training. We propose suggestions for enhancing their training capacities. The first involves applying a whitening technique to the input data by employing a lattice structure as the equalizer. Lattice equalizer therefore becomes insensitivity to the inputs correlation matrix. In the second strategy, we suggest modifying the slope of the activation function. Combining the two methods increases the ANN's nonlinear capabilities and adaptability. Through simulation tests, the offered methodologies efficacy is verified. The results demonstrate that the performance of the neural network-based lattice equalizer is greatly improved by whitening the received data using adaptive lattice channel equalization techniques in conjunction with an adjustable slope activation function.

An Improved Recursive Least Square Algorithm For Adapting Fuzzy Channel Equalizer
Adaptive filters have been thoroughly investigated in digital communication. They are especially exploited as equalizers, to compensate for channel distortions, although equalizers based on linear filters perform poorly in nonlinear distortion. In this paper, a nonlinear equalizer based on a fuzzy filter is proposed and a new algorithm for the adaptation parameters is presented. The followed approach is based on a regularization of the Recursive Least Square (RLS) algorithm and an incorporation of fuzzy rules in the adaptation process. The proposed approach, named Improved Fuzzy Recursive Least Square (IFRLS), enhances significantly the fuzzy equalizer performance through the acquisition of more convergence properties and lower steady-state Mean Square Error (MSE). The efficiency of the IFRLS algorithm is confirmed through extensive simulations in a nonlinear environment, besides the conventional RLS, in terms of convergence abilities, through MSE, and the equalized signal behavior. The IFRLS algorithm recovers the transmitted signal efficiently and leads to lower steady-state MSE. An improvement in convergence abilities is noticed, besides the RLS.

An Adaptive Sigmoidal Activation Function for Training Feed Forward Neural Network Equalizer
Feed for word neural networks (FFNN) have attracted a great attention, in digital communication area. Especially they are investigated as nonlinear equalizers at the receiver, to mitigate channel distortions and additive noise. The major drawback of the FFNN is their extensive training. We present a new approach to enhance their training efficiency by adapting the activation function. Adapting procedure for activation function extensively increases the flexibility and the nonlinear approximation capability of FFNN. Consequently, the learning process presents better performances, offers more flexibility and enhances nonlinear capability of NN structure thus the final state kept away from undesired saturation regions. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated through different challenging channel models, it performs quite well for nonlinear channels which are severe and hard to equalize. The performance is measured throughout, convergence properties, minimum bit error achieved. The proposed algorithm was found to converge rapidly, and accomplish the minimum steady state value. All simulation shows that the proposed method improves significantly the training efficiency of FFNN based equalizer compared to the standard training one.

Performance Evaluation of OFDM and Filtered-OFDM Waveforms for Wireless Communication Systems
Abstract – Multicarrier modulations have seen a great attention in recent years, especially Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) which is widely employed in modern wireless communication systems. OFDM is often recognized by robustness against multipath channels and easiest implementation. Despite its adoption in many communication standard, OFDM suffers from several limitations, counting high out-of-band emissions (OOBE), and sensitivity to synchronization errors, and loss of spectral efficiency, owing to the cyclic prefix. Recent researches propose several waveforms in order to improve OFDM capabilities or as alternatives to OFDM, including Filter Bank Multicarrier (FBMC), Universal Filtered Multicarrier (UFMC), and Filtered-OFDM (F-OFDM). Among these multicarrier waveforms, F-OFDM has attracted important consideration since it is considered as an improvement of OFDM. The key issue of F-OFDM is apply sub-band filtering to OFDM signal, thus improves spectral confinement and reduces inter-band interference. This paper offers a comparative study of OFDM and F-OFDM in terms of spectral efficiency, Bit Error Rate (BER) and OOBE under severe channel conditions. Simulation results exhibits a significant reduction in out-of-band emissions whereas it maintain analogous Bit Error Rate (BER) performance to OFDM. F-OFDM offers similarly an improved spectral performance and ensure compatibility with existing OFDM-based systems. These enhancements in performance is at the cost of a moderate increase in implementation complexity. These results approve the suitability of F-OFDM as a promising development of OFDM, making it a robust candidate waveform for modern wireless communication systems. Keywords –Multicarrier modulatiom, OFDM, F-OFDM, Digital communications.
