The Internet of things (IoT) is still in its infancy and has attracted much interest many industrial sectors including medical fields, logistics tracking, smart cities automobiles. However as a paradigm, it susceptible to range significant intrusion threats. This paper presents threat analysis the IoT uses an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) combat these A multi-level perceptron, type supervised ANN, trained using internet packet traces, then assessed on ability thwart Distributed Denial...
Partial discharge (PD) is regarded as a precursor to plant failure and therefore, an effective indication of condition. Locating the source PD before key efficient maintenance improving reliability power systems. This paper presents low cost, autonomous partial radiolocation mechanism improve localization precision. The proposed radio frequency-based technique uses wavelet packet transform (WPT) machine learning ensemble methods locate PDs. More specifically, received signals are decomposed...
Partial discharge (PD) is a well-known indicator of the failure insulators in electrical plant. Operators are pushing toward lower operating cost and higher reliability this stimulates demand for diagnostic system capable accurately locating PD sources especially ageing electricity substations. Existing techniques used source localisation can be prohibitively expensive. In paper, cost-effective radio fingerprinting technique proposed.
