Implementation of Kalman Filter Using TDC and PLL for Object Detection and Tracking in Signal Processing
Abstract: The measurement uncertainty of GPS receivers is dependent on a wide range of external factors, including receiver clock precision, thermal noise, atmospheric influences, and minute variations in satellite positions. Estimating hidden states precisely and accurately in the face of uncertainty is one of the main problems facing tracking and control systems. Among the most significant and widely used estimate methods is the Kalman Filter. It uses imprecise and erratic measurements …

Production and Characterisation of Bio-ethanol from Sweet Sorghum Juice
Abstract: Sweet sorghum stalks obtained from local market in Zamfara State were evaluated for bioethanol production. The process is considered to be economically feasible considering the percentage yield of sweet sorghum juice obtained from the stalks which was eventually converted to bio-ethanol through fermentation and distillation. The bio-ethanol obtained in the process was analyzed and the properties are compared with the standard specifications set by Standard Organisation of Nigeria (SON). Most …
