Image denoising is of paramount importance in image processing. In this paper, we propose a new design technique for the design of Double density Discrete Wavelet Transform (DD DWT) AND DD CWT filter bank structure. These filter banks satisfy the perfect reconstruction as well as alias free properties of the DWT. Next, we utilized this filter bank structure in image denoising. Our denoising scheme

This manuscript introduces orthogonally polarized quad-element multi-input multi-output (MIMO) antenna with improved isolation. The proposed design of a miniaturized volume of 43 × 43 × 1.5 mm3 covers vast impedance bandwidth more than 17.85 GHz commences at 2.15 GHz to more than 20 GHz, corresponding to reflection coefficient below – 10 dB. A quad-port low-pass filter (LPF) with a very wide

With the widespread use of mobile applications in daily life, it has become crucial for software companies to develop the applications for the most popular platforms like Android and iOS. Using a native development is time consuming and costly. Cross-platform mobile development like Xamarin and React native emerged as a solution to the mentioned problem of native development for the time and cost

This study targets an order fulfillment problem in a freight forwarding company. Some applicable solutions are implemented such as supplier performance evaluation, suppliers' selection, and location analytics. The objective of the study is to reduce the number of unfulfilled orders by supply planning. Some of the tools used to achieve this are Excel (VBA and Pivot tables) to perform drivers'

In this paper, we study a wireless powered cellular network (WPCN) supported with network coding capability. In particular, we consider a network consisting of k cellular users (CUs) served by a hybrid access point (HAP) that takes over energy transfer to the users on top of information transmission over both the uplink (UL) and downlink (DL). Each CU has k+1 states representing its communication

The internet of things (IoT) has provided a promising opportunity to build powerful systems and applications. Security is the main concern in IoT applications due to the privacy of exchanged data using limited resources of IoT devices (sensors/actuators). In this paper, we present a classification of IoT modes of operation based on the distribution of IoT devices, connectivity to the internet, and

A simple and direct procedure for implementing fractional-order filters with transfer functions that contain Laplace operators of different fractional orders is presented in this work. Based on a general fractional-order transfer function that describes fractional-order low-pass, high-pass, band-pass, band-stop and all-pass filters, the introduced concept deals with the consideration of this

Quantum cryptography is a promising technology that achieves unconditional security, which is essential to a wide range of sensitive applications. In contrast to optical fiber, the free-space optical (FSO) link is efficiently used as a quantum channel without affecting the polarization of transmitted photons. However, the FSO link has several impairments, such as atmospheric turbulence and

In free-space optical (FSO) communication, Distribution models such as lognormal, gamma-gamma, and k-distribution describe weak, moderate, and strong turbulence, respectively. Whereas Málaga (M) distribution is a powerful statistical model repeatedly mentioned in the literature due to its generality, Málaga (M) describes the three turbulence conditions while considering the pointing errors

Deployment on different platforms has been a great issue for mobile companies that aim to maximize the return on investments by making their mobile applications available on different mobile platforms. Consequently, the app may be developed several times to match different platforms. Therefore, there is a need to have solutions that enable the developers to develop the app once, and run it
