PDF Full Text
Abstract

Hilla cities center of province Babil is one of the most important cities in Iraq 100 km (62 mi) south of Baghdad .its relate  the Governorate Baghdad with Governorates south                                            Al-Thawra signalized intersection is one of the most important intersections   in AL-Hilla city Being a major crossing point to the governorates of holy Karbala and Baghdad.The excessive traffic volumes, during the peak periods (at morning and evening), of vehicles that entering the intersection increase traffic density, reduce travel speed, increase travel time, and increase the delay values This paper aims to assess the traffic performance of Al-thawra signalized intersection in Babil city that is consistent with the existing conditions and intersection's geometric properties. For all approaches, video recording has been used to collect traffic volume data. These data are taken out of videos from Babil police cameras (department of communications and information systems)..The intersection was evaluated and analyzed using the SYNCHRO 10.0 software, and the best option was selected. The outcome of the evaluation process indicated that the intersection is operated at the level of service (LOS F) and with a control delay of 162.5 seconds.by recommending a variety of strategies, ranging from signal optimization to geometric enhancements. The suggestion of widening the pavement in the north-south direction was found to be the best solution.  resulting in a decrease in vehicle delays from 162.2 seconds to 95.4 seconds  and the level of service remains constant  (LOS F)  considered an acceptable and cost-effective solution to the intersection's problems.

Pages: 18-28

PDF Full Text
Abstract

Solar cells play a vital role in renewable energy systems, and ongoing research is dedicated to enhancing their power efficiency and longevity. Advancements in perovskite solar cells, particularly in power conversion efficiency (PCE), have shown significant progress, confirming its viability as a technology. Perovskite solar cells have achieved power conversion efficiency (PCE) levels of up to 25.5%, comparable to conventional photovoltaic technologies like silicon, gallium arsenide, and cadmium telluride. The substantial enhancement in power conversion efficiency figures over the last decade has shown a remarkable advancement in the efficiency of perovskite solar cells. This study examines the trajectory of perovskite solar cells in becoming economically feasible and generally embraced as a critical renewable energy technology. The advancement of flexible and wearable solar cells, together with miniature solar-powered sensors, has increased the efficiency of solar cell power production. Perovskite solar cells have shown a specific power of 23 W/g, much higher than traditional silicon or gallium arsenide solar cells. Further research is needed to address the challenges related to perovskite solar cells' stability and power conversion efficiency. Perovskite solar cells integrated with energy storage units have the potential to enhance the overall efficiency of the system. This study discusses an approach to improve the efficiency of novel solar cells, specifically focusing on lead-free tin-based perovskite solar cells and tandem solar cells. The advancement of technology in thin films, such as hybrid nanocomposite thin films and quantum dot-sensitive solar cells, has the potential to improve the efficiency of solar cells. The primary outcome of this study is derived from the following inference: incorporating plasmatic nanostructures into thermal energy systems will enhance their efficiency and sustainability by integrating solar energy.

Pages: 74-83

PDF Full Text
Abstract

 The antenna is a Modified Broadband Butterfly Antenna (MBBA).  The technical parameters of such systems are heavily influenced by the qualities of the antenna feed devices. The aperture theory of antennas uses the representation of the radiation field of the antenna as a superposition of the fields of elementary sources, characterized by their type and amplitude-phase spatial distribution. The radiation field of an antenna of finite dimensions is a superposition of inhomogeneous spherical waves emitted by the antenna elements. This paper is primarily the study process, Radiation models were calculated using the model of the cavity plates, Simple Green model, and the strict commercial Electromagnetic Simulator. The modified active rectangular patches with the Gann diode were combined into arrays of E and H plane. Calculated and measured results for these two active arrays the beam scanning, the possibilities have been demonstrated for both arrays. The results of an electrodynamics numerical simulation were obtained. Broadband and multiband radio systems have already found widespread practical applications by utilizing basic antenna parameters and characteristics.

Distracted Driving Using Mobile Phone

Atheer Muhammed Ali

Pages: 211-221

PDF Full Text
Abstract

Approximately one-quarter of all automobile collisions in the United States are thought to be caused by a distracted or inattentive driver. As more wireless communication, entertainment, and driver assistance technologies become available in vehicles, the number of distracted driving accidents is projected to rise. Driver distraction is a major concern in North America, Europe, and Japan when it comes to road safety. The importance of driver distraction as a road safety concern, on the other hand, has just lately been recognized. This study presents an overview of current studies on in-vehicle driver distraction, with an emphasis on mobile phone usage, as this technol-ogy has garnered the most attention in the literature on driver distraction. The impact of in-vehicle gadgets on driving performance is discussed in this review. The adaptive techniques driv-ers use to maintain acceptable driving performance when distracted are discussed, as well as the situations under which these adaptive tactics can fail and how driving performance is harmed when they do. Legislation prohibiting drivers from using their cellphones while driving has had minimal effect, presumably due to a lack of regulation and enforcement. As potential preventive measures to decrease accidents caused by distracted drivers, behavior modification programs, enhanced vehicle safety, and public awareness campaigns have been created.

Performance Measure of Turbo Code Using LLR Histogram

Mohammed AlMahamdy

Pages: 13-20

PDF Full Text
Abstract

Turbo codes have been deployed in many cutting-edge technologies because they can achieve very high coding gains. Turbo decoders deploy at least two Soft-Input-Soft-Out (SISO) decoders, which operate iteratively to incorporate their results to conclude the output. The soft outputs from the used constituent SISO decoders develop gradually along the iterations. This development is studied and analyzed in this work to understand the dynamics leading to the results. Histograms statistically group and visualize the soft results for further analysis and study. A method is proposed to evaluate the decoding performance based on the density of the values of the soft outputs within the histogram. Results show that the performance is inversely related to the ratio of the values of the soft outputs within the near-zero bins within the histogram. The proposed method can be deployed at the decoder to provide an early indication of the reception and whether it has the potential to be correctly decoded or not. This early decision can save the decoding resources.

Direct Algorithm for Computation of Inverse Real Fast Fourier Transform (IRDFT)

sukaina salih, mounir hamood

Pages: 19-27

PDF Full Text
Abstract

This paper proposes an efficient algorithm for fast computation of the inverse real-valued discrete Fourier transform (IRDFT) using the decimation in frequency (DIF) approach. The proposed algorithm represents a direct method with a new implementation for fast computing of IRDFT. The algorithm derivation is based on the basic principles of the Cooley-Tukey algorithm with the divide and conquer approach and utilizes the advantage of conjugate symmetric property for the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) to remove all redundancies that appear when DFT deals with real data. The analyses of the proposed algorithm have shown that the arithmetic number has reached a minimum, therefore the structure of the developed algorithm possesses the desired properties such as regularity, simplicity, and in-place computation. The arithmetic complexity of this algorithm has been compared with the inverse FFT algorithm, and it was found that it needs the least number of multiplications and additions. The validity of the developed algorithm has been verified by reducing the peak-to-average power ratio PAPR in optical-OFDM systems compared with complex FFT. The simulation using MATLAB(R2021a) findings show that the RFFT O-OFDM system reduces PAPR more efficiently than the FFT O-OFDM system. The PAPR exhibits a reduction of approximately 2.4 to 2.75 dB when evaluated at a probability of occurrence of 10-1 in the complementary cumulative distribution function (CCDF) plot.

A Novel Architecture for M-FSK /DS Spread Spectrum Communication System

ali husien

Pages: 1-9

PDF Full Text
Abstract

The direct sequence (DS) spread spectrum communication technique is widely regarded as one of the most effective methods of mitigating the effects of a repeating jammer in military communications systems. The proposed system coupled DS with multiple frequency shift keying (DS/MFSK). It is comprised of a transmitter and a receiver. Non-coherent demodulation is examined, as are the spreading sequences in question. The effect of AWGN and Rayleigh fading channels on the proposed approach's bit error rate (BER) is examined. The investigation demonstrates that even with an 8 dB signal-to-noise ratio, superior outcomes can be achieved; this study's suggested endeavor is to create a novel transceiver system built on the DS/MFSK modular architecture. MFSK modulation prevents multiple-access interference, while DS is typically employed to boost system efficiency across erratic fading. Test results show that reliability on the AWGN channel decreases a little while reliability is greatly enhanced by Rayleigh fading. Moreover, notable improvements in bandwidth efficiency are achieved.
