Protokol media access control (MAC) berperan menjamin keberhasilan transmisi data antar sensor nirkabel dan konsumsi daya pada Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN). Penelitian ini membandingkan unjuk kerja dua buah protocol MAC, yaitu T-MAC dan ZigbeeMAC pada sistem WBAN, pada laju kedatangan paket (λ) yang berbeda. Hasil simulasi menunjukan bahwa pada jaringan dengan λ rendah tingkat keberhasilan pengiriman paket antara protocol T-MAC dan ZigbeeMAC mencapai rata-rata 90% dari throughput maksimal walaupun pada kondisi tersebut kinerja ZigbeeMAC memiliki nilai lebih baik dibanding T-MAC. Pada laju kedatangan paket tinggi, throughput pada T-MAC memiliki perbedaan yang signifikan terhadap ZigbeeMAC. Pada keadaan terburuk troughput T-MAC adalah 88% dari throughput maksimal sedangkan Zigbee menurun hingga 43% dari throughput maksimal. Kosumsi daya pada ZigbeeMAC cenderung konstan untuk setiap laju kedatangan paket sedangkan pada T-MAC meningkat sejalan dengan pertambahan laju kedatangan paket.

DESIGN OF PROTOTYPE DYNAMIC AC POWER MACHINE WITH EQUIVALENT CIRCUIT MODELING (TORQUE SPEED CURVE OF INDUCTION MOTOR 1,1, KW)
Authors: Abidin Zainal , Adam Adam
Published: December 2020

Squirrel cage induction motors are widely used in electric motor drives due to their satisfactory mechanical characteristics (torque, current, overloading) and small dimensions, as well as their low price. When starting an induction motor, a large current is required for magnetizing its core, which results in a low power factor, rotor power losses and a temperature rise in the windings. None of these parameters should reach values beyond certain limits until the motor reaches nominal speed. The speed of an induction motor 1,1kW is affected very little by fluctuations of voltage. The greater the supply voltage of the motor, the induction motor's speed will increase. The torque values (Tstart, TSmax and Tmax) are affected by the value of the motor supply voltage: (Vp-nl : 132.8, Tstart1 : 7.4, T S-max1 : 0.4, Tmax1 : 9.9) V, (Vp-nl : 127.0, Tstart2 : 4.8, T S-max1 : 0.3, Tmax1 : 8.4) V and (Vp-nl : 121.3, Tstart3 : 3.3, T S-max3 : 0.2, Tmax3 : 7.1) V. Stator current (IL-nl ; 2.5, 2.2, 1.9 ) Amp rises gradually on account of the increase in magnetising current (Im : 2.5, 2.2, 1.9) Amp. The magnetising current required to produce the stator flux. The component of the stator current which provides the ampere-turns balancing the rotor ampere-turns will steadily diminish as the rotor current (IL-nl) decrease with the increase in rotor speed (nr).

Authors: Mauboy Evtaleny
Published: December 2020

The reasons to shift the generation system from conventional fuel oil generating system to clean energy sources are now based on the increase of fuel cost, climate change and environmental issues in reducing the greenhouse gas emission and also pollution. Wind is one of the renewable energy that has many advantages and the level of the penetration has increased now. Despite the abundance amount of wind, the fluctuation and the intermittent make wind generation system can affect the reliability of the power system. One of the solutions to the problems above is the use of electrical energy storage system. Power that stored in the electrical energy storage system can be used later when the wind is not strong enough to generate electric power. This research intends to investigate more on li-ion battery as one of the promising means in enhancing the reliability of power system when connecting to wind generation system in order to enhance the power system reliability. This work should contribute significantly in wind energy generation stability improvement with the storage system and there will be an advantage in battery storage system application. The results show the stability improvement of the simulation system connected to the wind generation with the battery.
SIMULATION OF ENERGY CONSUMPTION IN MULTI CLUSTER WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORKS
Authors: Pella S. I.
Published: December 2020

Energy conserving protocols in wireless sensor networks (WSNs), such as S-MAC, introduce multi-cluster network. The border nodes in multi cluster WSNs have more active time than the other nodes in the network; hence have more energy depletion rate. Since battery replacement in most networks is considered difficult, one or more nodes running out of energy prematurely will affect the network connectivity and decrease the overall network performance severely. This paper aims to (1) analyze the energy consumption in a multi-cluster sensor network and compare it to the single cluster scenario (2) investigate the merging time in a single cluster network. The result shows that, in average the energy needed to deliver a packet in the multi cluster networks is about 150% more than the energy needed in the single cluster networks. Moreover, the merging time in the single cluster network using schedule offset as the merging criteria in average is slightly smaller than one in the network using schedule ID as the merging criteria.

Authors: Singh Rakesh Ramdayal , Kumar Yogesh , Azam Maseeh , Singh D. K. , Jana Debarshi
Published: December 2020

Background: One of the popular graft choices for ACL reconstruction have been Hamstrings tendon autograft. Thereis no consensus on the ideal technique of fixation of hamstrings graft to femoral condyle. Theoretically we hypothesized that transfixation method of hamstrings graft fixation to femoral condyle should be superior to bio-interference screw fixation technique. Hence aim of our study is to compare this two fixation methods of hamstrings autografts clinically.
Methods: 50 clinically and radiologically proven ACL deficient fighting soldiers are selected for the study. In groupA; 25 patients underwent ACL reconstruction with Bioscrew using aperture technique on femoral side. Other 25 patients in group B underwent ACL reconstruction with transfixation screw using cortico-cancellous fixation technique on femoral side. In both groups quadrupled semitendinosus autograft is utilized. All the patients evaluated for functional outcome at the end of 6 weeks and at 6 months and at the end of 1 year following the procedure. The subjects are evaluated using the modified Lysholm knee score and knee laxity is measured by Rolimeter.
Results: At 01 year post op. there was no statistically significant difference in both groups in terms of Manual laitytests,Rollimeter laity measurement and Lysholm knee score.The overall satisfactory result (Excellent + Good) in both the groups at 01 year follow up were 98% by Lysholm score.
Conclusions: Transfixation and Bioscrew fixation showed comparable results in manual knee laxity tests,instrumental knee laxity tests using Rolimeter, Lyslohm scores and high patient satisfaction, with almost 96% of patients in both groups returned to their pre-injury levels.

Introduction Dental rehabilitation of partially or totally edentulous patients with dental implants has become a popular treatment modality with reliable long-term results. These days’ new methods are being used to improve the quality of osseointegration. Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF) is a second generation platelet concentrate which is a new biotechnology, it has been suggested to be of great use in implant dentistry as it can enhance the quality of osseointegration. Various studies show that it improves healing of both hard as well as soft tissues. Aim To compare the quality of osseointegration using platelet rich fibrin over conventional implant placement. Materials & Methods 40 dental implants were placed in total for this study. 20 implants each were placed with PRF (Goup A) and without PRF (Group B) in the osteotomy site. After three months CBCT was done to evaluate and compare the quality of osseointegration between the 2 groups measured in gray value using the Galileos Implant Software- Sirona. Result Mean values obtained were ≈1928 in group A (with PRF) and ≈1734.6 in group B (without PRF). Independent Samples T-Test showed a significant p-value of 0.013 ( p-value>0.05). Conclusion Results from our study show that PRF can play a promising role in the quality of osseointegration when used as a biomaterial in oral implantology. Our study provides a basis for future research with larger sample size and longer follow-ups to elucidate this outcome further.

Published: December 2020

Hernia is defined as abnormal protrusion of viscus through a normal or abnormal weakness in the wall of its containing cavity. Ventral Hernias are second most common type of hernias accounting for 21 to 35% of all verities of hernias. The main danger of all forms of hernia is strangulation and hence need surgical intervention. Repair of ventral hernias can be technically challenging and a myriad of methods have been described. The most important distinctions in describing surgical management of ventral hernias are primary vs mesh repair and open vs laparoscopic repair. Mesh repair became the gold standard in elective management of most ventral hernias. In the recent era of Minimal invasive surgeries, laparoscopic ventral hernia repair is being favoured by patients as well as the surgeons when compared to open repair. There is need to evaluate and compare quality of life and pain scoring postoperatively between open repair and laparoscopic repair of ventral hernias. AIMS & OBJECTIVES- TO COMPARE SURGICAL OUTCOMES OF INTRA PERITONEAL ONLAY MESH REPAIR(IPOM) VS OPEN ONLAY MESH REPAIR FOR VENTRAL HERNIA ON VARIOUS PARAMETERS MATERIAL & METHODS-This study was conducted on 60 pts which were divided in 2 groups (30 Intra peritoneal onlay mesh repair- 30 open onlay mesh repair) CONCLUSION-Laparoscopic ventral hernia repair provides lesser post-operative pain, lesser complications, shorter hospital stay and lesser economic impact as they returned to returned to work early. Thus patients have less morbidity and improved quality of life. LVHR may be considered a primary approach for most ventral and incisional hernias unless contraindicated for laparoscopy

Background: Gossypiboma refers to incidences of retained foreign bodies usually forgotten within the abdominal cavity at the end of an operation. It may be a surgical sponge, gauze pad, or other forms of textiles, instruments. Aims and objective: To try and identify the factors which are responsible for the formation of Gossypiboma. Material and method: A Retrospective study was carried out in patients presented with postop (following open surgery) complications; diagnosis is made first followed by looking into possible causative factors. Results: In our study of 900 patients (age group>20 yrs; underwent open surgery in past); Out of 900 patients included in the study, it was found that 5 patients were found to have retained foreign objects in the abdomen. Among four patients two were operated for caesarian-section, one for open cholecystectomy, and one underwent laparotomy for intestinal perforation. The Surgical safety checklist was not being followed in all five cases; the adequacy and compatibility of OT staff was questionable in 2 cases. Conclusion: By following standard surgical protocol of Surgical safety checklist along with proper teamwork (good rapport and communication among the dedicated OT staffs and operating surgeon); allocation of ample working hours; regular teaching and training of OT staff personnel about the maintenance of standard surgical protocols and finally addressing the consequences of legal repercussions as well as ignominy faced by hospital administration; such rarely occurring incidences can be minimized to never happening incidence. Keywords: Gossypiboma, Mops, Sponge, Surgical safety checklist.

Published: December 2020

Background: Vocal fold nodules (VFNs), are localized, benign, superficial growths on the medial surface of the true vocal folds (TVFs) that are commonly believed to result from phonotrauma. Nodules are bilateral with a classic location at the junction of the anterior and middle third of the vocal fold (ie, the midpoint of the membranous vocal fold).
AIMS: Correlation between response of treatment (as evident by post-treatment and post follow up GRBAS score), in each group.
MATERIAL AND METHODS: Outpatient department and Indoor wards of Department of ENT and Head Neck surgery, R. G Kar Medical College. Patients attending ENT OPD of R G Kar Medical College during the Study period were the study population. Sample size was atleast 50 Patients.
RESULT: In group-A, the mean Pre Rx GRBAS (mean±s.d.) of the patients was 11.4118 ± 2.0018. In group-B, the mean Pre Rx GRBAS (mean±s.d.) of the patients was 11.1818 ± 2.5794.Distribution of mean Pre Rx GRBAS vs. group was not statistically significant (p=0.7499).
CONCLUSION: Vocal fold nodule is one of the most frequent benign laryngeal lesions, influencing the quality of life of those affected by them, primarily the vocal production. Despite being a well-established therapy in conjunction with surgery, speech therapy alone may also be effective in treating these lesions.
Enhanced URLLC-Enabled Edge Computing Framework for Device-Level Innovation in 6G

Published: December 2020

The upcoming beyond 5G (B5G) wireless networks target various innovative technologies, services, and interfaces such as edge computing (EC), ultra-reliable and low-latency communication (URLLC), backscatter communications, and TeraHertz (THz) technology-enabled inter-chip communications, and high capacity links. Although there are ongoing advances in the system/network level, it is crucial to introduce innovations at the device-level to efficiently support these novel technologies by addressing various practical constraints such as power limitations, computational capacity, and storage capacity.

Considering the contemporary latency requirements of future consumer electronics (CE) (e.g., entertainment, gaming, etc), to enhance the commercial potential of ``edge processing as service'', it is envisioned that URLLC will further evolve as enhanced-URLLC (e-URLLC). In this regard, this paper proposes a novel EC-enabled e-URLLC framework for the next-generation CE devices, named EC for CE (ECCE), in order to enable the support of e-URLLC in the wireless 6G era. Starting with the discussion on recent trends and advances in CE, the proposed framework and its importance in the 6G era are described. Subsequently, several potential enabling technologies and tools for the implementation of the proposed ECCE framework are identified along with a discussion on some interesting open research topics.
A novel Dynamic Pareto bi-level Multi-Objective Particle Swarm Optimization (DPb-MOPSO) algorithm
Authors: Aboud Ahlem , Fdhila Raja , Hussain Amir , Alimi Adel
Published: December 2020

Distributed architecture-based Particle Swarm Optimization is very useful for static optimization and not yet explored to solve complex dynamic multi-objective optimization problems. This study proposes a novel Dynamic Pareto bi-level Multi-Objective Particle Swarm Optimization (DPb-MOPSO) algorithm with two optimization levels. In the first level, all solutions are optimized in the same search space and the second level is based on a distributed architecture using the Pareto ranking operator for dynamic multi-swarm subdivision. The proposed approach adopts a dynamic handling strategy using a set of detectors to keep track of change in the objective function that is impacted by the problem’s time-varying parameters at each level. To ensure timely adaptation during the optimization process, a dynamic response strategy is considered for the reevaluation of all non-improved solutions, while the worst particles are replaced with a newly generated one. The convergence and
diversity performance of the DPb-MOPSO algorithm are proven through Friedman Analysis of Variance, and the Lyapunov theorem is used to prove stability analysis over the Inverted Generational Distance (IGD) and Hypervolume Difference (HVD) metrics. Compared to other evolutionary algorithms, the novel DPb-MOPSO is shown to be most robust for solving complex problems over a range of changes in both the Pareto Optimal Set and Pareto Optimal Front.

El Imperio Inca en el recuerdo de la nobleza provincial en los ultimos anos de los siglos XVI y comienzos del XVII
Authors: Nir Amon
Published: December 2020

Amon Nir's article is an ethno-historic study on how the non-Inca provincial elites of the Inca empire perceived the Inca central government. The study is based on three sources, namely the following post-conquest manuscripts: 'Ritos y Tradiciones de Huarochiris' (Anonymous), 'Relacion de Antiguedades deste Reyno del Piru' (authored by Joan de Santa Cruz Pacha Cuti) and Felipe Guaman Poma de Ayala's 'Nueva Corónica y Buen Gobierno'. His study analyses both the events related in those texts and the language used to describe the Inca central authorities. His study suggests that among non-Inca elites of Huarochiri and Canchis there was acceptance for Inca central government as the legitimate administration.
