Abstract: WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) is a technology that bridges the gap between fixed and mobile access and offer the same subscriber experience for fixed and mobile user. In this work, with the performance investigation of the WIMAX system under different applications generating high load data traffic, various modulation schemes like GMSK, BPSK, DPSK, QAM 64 etc. were introduced. The performance of WIMAX physical layer is analyzed based on the simulation results of Bit-Error Rate (BER) and Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) and the results are represented in the form of tables and graphs.Creating the simulation scenario that is equivalent to real world is the first step of simulation. In this work, various modulation techniques used by OFDM physical layer of WIMAX 802.16 are implemented. To generate data in the network, applications generating high load data traffic at VBR will be designed. A discrete event simulator called OPNET (Optimized Network Engineering Tool) Modeller version 14.0 is used to implement all the mechanisms by using the process models provided by the library of the simulator. In the last various performances evaluation metrics are used to gather the results of Bit Error Rate (BER) and Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) in tabular and graphical form and conclusion is drawn based on the gathered results.

DOI: 10.17148/IJIREEICE.2015.31003
Abstract: The objective of the work is to maintain the pressure in the closed loop at desired set value. The pressurized tank has the features of nonlinearity, sluggishness by tuning conventional PI methods. This paper focus on implementation of internal mode control (IMC) to obtain an optimal PI control setting for pressure process. System identification of the process is done by process reaction curve method. To improve the robustness, internal model control method (IMC) is employed in tuning the PI controller and is applied to the First Order plus Time-Delay (FOPTD) model. Here delay is approximated with First Order plus Pade Approximation. At first, a Proportional Integral (PI) controller based on IMC-PI setting is designed and the results are compared with Ziegler Nichols (ZN) controller settings. The robustness of the controllers are endorsed by imposing both servo and regulatory disturbances. The simulation results confirm that IMC-PI controller has improved dynamic performance on disturbance rejection.

Abstract: Histogram equalization (HE) or projection is the well known method for the image enhancement because of its simplicity and is the base for advanced algorithms. Mainly there are two branches: global and local HE. In the global histogram equalization the entire image is equalized at a stretch where as in local histogram equalization the image is divided into sub-blocks and HE is carried for each block. In this paper, the image is segmented first. Number of sub- block is based on size of image and also sub-blocks are taken such that they are not overlapped. Then HP is done individually on each sub-block following this each sub-block is related to three of its adjacent sub-blocks by certain weight. This is to enhance the local details as well as to overcome the blocking effect. The algorithm is implemented using MATLAB and from results it can be shown that it enhances the image without any blocking effects also local details are enhanced. So it well suits for consumer electronics.
Keywords: Histogram equalization, Contrast enhancement, Local histogram equalization.

Abstract: Mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) have garnered considerable research interest owing its popularity to the significant advantages it offers over traditional wireless networks. Recent research in ad hoc networks has focused on implementing secure routing protocols. However singular characteristics of MANET topology namely peer-to-peer architecture, lack of centralized management, resource constraints (battery, bandwidth and computation capacity) and dynamic topology pose significant challenges to security solutions. In this paper, we detail security threats and limitations of AODV [1] and DSR [2] Routing Protocol. We identify the current secure protocols based on AODV and DSR – SAODV, SAR, ARIADNE, SRP and ARAN. We examine the advantages and disadvantages of each secure protocol and compare them based on certain security parameters.
Abstract: In recent years, there has been a growing interest in transmitting voice, data, image and video signals over wireless communication channels. In wireless telecommunications, multipath is the propagation phenomenon that results in radio signals reaching the receiving antenna by two or more paths. Reasons of multipath are scattering, atmospheric ducting, reflection from terrestrial objects, such as mountains and buildings and ionospheric reflection and refraction which results in constructive and destructive interference, and phase shifting of the signal. This deterioration of signals caused by multipath is termed as fading. In the present work, the BER performance has been investigated for Rayleigh and Rician fading channels.
Keywords: Multipath; diversity; Rayleigh fading; Rician fading; bit error rate.
A Hybrid of BFO and MCS Algorithm for Channel Estimation of MIMO-OFDM System
Dr.R.Manjith
DOI: 10.17148/IJIREEICE.2015.31010
Abstract: In this paper, challenges regarding the provision of channel state information (CSI) in multiple input multiple output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM)) systems are addressed. A novel scheme that utilizes a Hybrid of Bacterial Foraging and Modified Cuckoo Search (HBFOMCS) optimization together to design pilot symbols that minimizes the channel estimate mean squared error (MSE) is proposed. The optimal selection of pilot subcarriers is a combinatorial problem that requires heavy computations. To reduce the computational complexity, the HBFOMCS optimization is utilized to determine the position of pilot subcarriers. Then, for a given pilot placement obtained by the HBFOMCS algorithm, the MSE of least squares (LS) and Minimum Mean Square Error(MMSE) based channel estimation are computed. Simulation results indicate that, the proposed pilot symbol design provides better channel estimate MSE as well as the bit error rate (BER) performance with reduced computational complexity for MMSE method when compared with the LS method and other conventional optimization based pilot design.
Keywords: HBFOMCS, LS channel estimation, MMSE channel estimation, MIMO-OFDM,MSE.

Anuradha, Inderjeet Singh Gill
DOI: 10.17148/IJIREEICE.2015.31013
Abstract: MANET is a network of wireless mobile nodes that exchanges information forming a self-governing and self-motivated network without any central management and fixed infrastructure. There is always a requirement of energy efficient and high speed protocols to find a path for forwarding data packets through relay nodes to the destination node. The selection of mobility pattern with high degree of realism is also an important characteristic used for evaluating the performance of wireless network .In this research paper the performance evaluation of wireless network using existing mobility models: Manhattan Grid Mobility Model (MGMM) and Random Waypoint Mobility Model (RWPM) is made and a new such model is proposed combining the features of existing models. The comparison is then made by using AODV and OLSR as the routing protocols and the functionality is analyzed in terms of different parameters: throughput, data drop and traffic received. The preliminary performance demonstrates that the proposed mobility model is found very close to MGMM and better than RWPM in terms of data drop and traffic received.
