A novel similarity measure for interval value picture fuzzy Environment and extended TOPSIS
Abstract: Correct decision-making is the most arduous task in our daily life. The decisions are hard to make in the multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) problems due to ambiguous and unexpected information. In order to cope with such uncertainties in the data, a new decision-making approach has been developed using a newly defined similarity measure under the framework of interval-valued picture fuzzy set (IVPFS), as an extension of picture fuzzy sets (PFS). In …

Evaluation of Antenna Performance using a Novel Measurement Device: Methodology and Results
Abstract: In the last decade, the field of On Chip Antennas (OCA) has experienced unprecedented growth due to the introduction of small, low-cost, low-power System-on-Chip (SoC) wireless communication devices. OCAs are superior to conventional off-chip antennas in a number of ways. They first reduce the overall size of the wireless communication system since the presence of an OCA eliminates the need for an impedance matching network between the antenna and RF …

Application of Dynamic Phasor Model as an Alternative to DFT in Phasor Measurement
Abstract: This paper presents the application of dynamic phasor based models as an alternative to the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) commonly used in the Phasor Measurement Units (PMU). The paper demonstrates that the computation of a phasor using DFT in discrete time domain is equivalent to the computation of phasor (Dynamic Phasor) in continuous time domain. This paper proposes the application of dynamic phasor based models to simulate a Wide Area …
