To combat packet loss and realize robust video transmission over Internet and wireless networks, a new multiple description (MD) video coding method is proposed. In the method, two descriptions for each video frame is first created by group of blocks (GOB) alternation. Motion information is then dup...

This paper has proposed a fault detecting method for DC supplied permanent magnet synchronize motor (PMSM) drive systems by monitoring the drive DC input current. This method is based on the fault signal propagation from the torque disturbance on the motor shaft to the inverter input currents. The a...

Formal verification of VHSIC Hardware Description Language (VHDL) in Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) design has been discussed for many years. In this paper we provide a practical approach to do so. We present a semi-automatic way to verify FPGA VHDL software deadlocks, especially those that re...

Graphene-based materials have attracted much attention in recent years. Many researchers have demonstrated prototypes using graphene-based materials, but few specific applications have appeared. Graphene-based acoustic devices have become a popular topic. This paper describes a novel method to fabri...

Many competing approaches exist in evaluating sensor network solutions differing by levels of ease of use, cost, control, and realism. Existing work concentrates on simulating network protocols or emulating processing units at the machine cycle level. However, little has been done to emulate the sen...
