USB Charger Using Pedal Power
Abstract: Profound cyclists will no doubt have every now and then thought that is would be agreeable to have some special type of on-board power supply to charge a mobile device such as a phone or a satnav even though on the road. The project describes how this can be achieved quite simply using power from the bicycle’s dynamo and a switching regulator. The alternating voltage delivered by the bicycle’s dynamo …

Verilog Implementation of a Turbo Encoder and Decoder with MAP-Based Decoding
Abstract: The most significant achievement in coding theory is the turbo codes which are forward error correction codes developed in 1993. By using two simple recursive systematic convolutional codes in parallel we can achieve near-capacity performance in transmission system which was defined by Shannon-Fano. By using iterative decoding structure near-capacity performance is possible with a relatively easy decoding complexity, using a soft in soft out (SISO) maximum a posteriori (MAP) decoding …

A Programmable Logic Controller Implicated to Control Speed
Abstract: The aim of developing this project is to control the speed of DC motor. The main advantage in using a DC motor is that the speed-torque relationship can be varied to almost any useful form. To achieve the speed control an electronic technique called pulse width modulation is used which generates high and low pulses. These pulses vary the speed in the motor. For the generation of these pulses a …

Utilization of Power in Street Lights using PWM Technology
Abstract: The important consideration in the present field of electronics and related technologies are automation, power consumption and cost effectiveness. Automation is intended to reduce manpower with the help of intelligent systems. Power saving is the main consideration forever as the sources of the power (thermal, hydro etc.) are getting diminished due to various reasons. The power saving part in this project is that LEDs are used instead of helium bulbs …

Design and Simulation of Ternary Gates Using Fin-FET
Abstract: In recent years, digital communication system has becomes more popular. But the on-chip interconnections have become a major problem as more and more modules are packed into a chip by reducing the gate size. As the gate size is reduced further the complexities in the circuit increases. Binary logic circuit dissipates a lot of energy, increase processing time, and causes coupling effect. In the Ternary logic system, there are three …
