Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHeavy Metals Pollution of Owerri and Asuokofi Rivers in Konongo, GhanaWiafe Samuel, Buamah Richard, Essandoh HelenThe effects of polluted water and soil resulting from anthropogenic activities have impacted negatively on the livelihood of both human and animal existence. A thorough study was therefore required to ascertain the extent of pollution caused by the undertakings of these anthropogenic activities particularly within the Asante Akim Central Municipality of Ghana. This study assesses the dispersions and the extent … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 2 · 14 Jun 2021 · 6,874 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn On-line Analytical Processing (OLAP) Aggregation Function for Rising Aspects in Collaboration and Social NetworksWaqas Nawaz, Kifayat Ullah Khan, Muhammad Shoaib SiddiquiThe overwhelming usage of social and collaboration networks provides the opportunity to analyze evolution of relationships among individuals, like celebrities or co-authors. Discovering such phenomenon in large complex networks is non-trivial due to their large sizes. In this situation, the aggregation functions used in OLAP, are useful to analyze the summarized data. OLAP has successfully proven its worth on multidimensional … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 6 · 10 Jun 2020 · 7,120 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComputer Vision for Vulnerable Road Users using Machine LearningDevi Chilukuri, Sun Yi, Younho SeongTransportation has become a very important component for all ages in today’s life. However, seniors often find difficulty in travelling by public transport or even by their own vehicles. Thus, they are considered as Vulnerable Road Users (VRUs). This research mainly concentrates on creating an application that helps the elderly mobile users in virtually screening of directions using GPS, tracking … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 11 Mar 2019 · 7,078 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDirect Sequence and Frequency Hopping Signals Classification Based on Co-Occurrence Matrix and Clustering TechniquesHaidy S. Fouad, Hend A. Elsayed, Shawkat K. GirgisSpread Spectrum techniques (SS) were first developed for military applications, but currently, they have commercial applications. SS provides secure communication and allows multiple accesses for same radio spectrum. So, most Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) systems use it, as do Cognitive Radios (CR), space systems and Global Positioning Systems (GPS). Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) and frequency hopped spread spectrum … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 10 Jan 2019 · 8,203 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMapping, Characterization and Dispersion of Metallic Pollutants within a Catchment of Illegal Gold Mining Activities in GhanaWiafe Samuel, Richard Buamah, Helen Essandoh, Lawrence DarkwahThe illegal gold mining activities prevalent in most part of Ghana have caused substantial havoc to the environment especially water bodies which serve as sources of water for domestic, industrial and agricultural purposes. The Ghana Water Company Limited (GWCL) recently shut down their water treatment plant due to the extreme pollution and high cost of treatment. This study focusses on … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 13 Jan 2018 · 8,176 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSynthesis of Optimal Incoherent Subcarrier Tracking of BOC(1,1) Navigation SignalsAlexandr Ivanovich PerovNavigation receivers of global positioning systems that are operated in complex electromagnetic environment must have an increased noise immunity characteristic. One way of such noise immunity rising is to use incoherent operating mode of navigation receiver. There are known processing algorithms for navigation signals with Binary Phase Shift Keying (BPSK) modulation. But in the near-term outlook Global Navigation Satellite Systems … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 9 · 26 Sep 2016 · 7,166 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Indoor Positioning System (IPS) using Grid ModelWutjanun Muttitanon, Nitin Kumar Tripathi, Marc SourisTo date many positioning systems are available to determine or track a user's location; three main categories include Global Positioning System (GPS), wide area location system and indoor positioning system. GPS has its limitation (poor signals) in indoor or urban uses, while wide-area location systems are cellular networks dependent. For indoor positioning system many approaches like infrared sensing, radio frequency, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,175 accessesView PDFCite
