Three new SRAM cells are proposed in this paper. Increasing area overhead is the major concern in SRAM design. One of the new structures is included four transistors instead of six transistors as it is used in conventional 6T-SRAM cell for very high density embedded SRAM applications. The structure of proposed SRAM employs one word-line […]
In this paper, the influence on the voltage compensation type, active superconducting fault current limiter (ASFCL) is investigated under symmetrical and asymmetrical fault conditions. ASFCL is consisting of three air-core superconducting transformers and a three-phase voltage source converter. In the normal (no fault) state, the flux in air core is compensated to zero, so the […]
All oscillators are periodically time varying systems, so to accurate phase noise calculation and simulation, time varying model should be considered. Phase noise is an important characteristic of oscillator design. It defined as the spectral density of the oscillator spectrum at an offset from the center frequency of the oscillator relative to the power of […]
Traffic road sign detection is important to a robotic vehicle that automatically drives on roads. As the colors of most traffic road signs are blue and red, in this paper, we use Hue- Saturation- Intensity (HSI) color space for color based segmentation at first. Using important geometrical features, the road signs are detected perfectly. After […]

Soft switching techniques have recently been used for the design of DC-AC converters, in order to achieve better performance, higher efficiency and power density. One of the soft switching techniques applied in inverters is resonant DC links. These topologies have some disadvantage such as irregular current peak, large voltage peaks, uncontrollable pulse width, etc. Another […]
Induction motors are widely used in industrial, commercial and residential applications. An induction motor may exposed to the unbalanced voltage in the various operating conditions. Therefore, it is vital to investigate influences of voltage unbalance on performance of induction motors. In this paper, the performance of a three-phase squirrel cage induction motor has been simulated […]
This paper proposes a new feature extraction algorithm which is robust against noise using histogram compensation and asymmetric filter.
