The quantisation module based on Just Noticeable Distortion (JND) for wavelets guarantees the visual quality in the reconstructed data. This method has been further extended to present the Volume of Interest (VOI) based technique that enables

A Wideband High-Power Ridge Gap Waveguide Power Divider for High-Power Division Sub-Systems Applications IETE J. Res. (IF 1.125) Pub Date : 2020-11-16 Ahmed F. Elshafey; Ehab K. AbuSaif; Mahmoud A. Abdalla
ABSTRACT In this paper, a wideband high-power ridge gap waveguide (RGW) T junction power divider within the frequency band from 10 to 13.5 GHz is introduced. In this configuration, the air has the ridge gap to have maximum power handling capability. An excitation transition, from coaxial cable to the ridge gap waveguide, is introduced. The ridge gap waveguide power divider was fabricated using aluminum

ZnO and Bi-metallic (Ag–Au) Layers Based Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) Biosensor with BaTiO3 and Graphene for Biosensing Applications IETE J. Res. (IF 1.125) Pub Date : 2020-11-12 N. Mudgal; Ankur Saharia; Ankit Agarwal; G. Singh
In this work, a novel design of Zinc Oxide (ZnO) and bi-metallic (Ag–Au) layers based surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor with barium titanate (BaTiO3) and graphene is proposed. The proposed structure consists of SF10 glass prism, ZnO, Ag, Au, BaTiO3, and graphene as a top layer for biomolecules adsorption. Here, the performance of this structure is studied and analysed for sensitivity along

A Sturdy Nonlinear Hyperspectral Unmixing IETE J. Res. (IF 1.125) Pub Date : 2020-11-10 M. Venkata Sireesha; P. V. Naganjaneyulu; K. Babulu
ABSTRACT Hyperspectral unmixing (HSU) is a way to process the prediction of the existing endmembers and the fractional abundances (FA) available in all pixels in the hyperspectral images. However, in a practical scenario, hyperspectral image is frequently corrupted due to many types of noises at the time of acquiring phenomenon such as dead-lines, impulse noise (IN), Gaussian noise (GN), and stripes
