Yayın EEG signal compression based on classified signature and envelope vector sets(Wiley, 2009-03) Gürkan, Hakan; Güz, Ümit; Yarman, Bekir Sıddık BinboğaIn this paper, a novel method to compress electroencephalogram (EEG) signal is proposed. The proposed method is based on the generation process of the classified signature and envelope vector sets (CSEVS), which employs an effective k-means clustering algorithm. It is assumed that both the transmitter and the receiver units have the same CSEVS. In this work, on a frame basis, EEG signals are modeled by multiplying only three factors called as classified signature vector, classified envelope vector, and gain coefficient (GC), respectively. In other words, every frame of an EEG signal is represented by two indices R and K of CSEVS and the GC. EEG signals are reconstructed frame by frame using these numbers in the receiver unit by employing the CSEVS. The proposed method is evaluated by using some evaluation metrics that are commonly used in this area such as root-mean-square error, percentage root-mean-square difference, and measuring with visual inspection. The performance of the proposed method is also compared with the other methods. It is observed that the proposed method achieves high compression ratios with low-level reconstruction error while preserving diagnostic information in the reconstructed EEG signal.Yayın A New speech coding algorithm using zero cross and phoneme based SYMPES(IEEE, 2013-07-11) Şişman, Burak; Güz, Ümit; Gürkan, Hakan; Yarman, Bekir Sıddık BinboğaIn this work, a new low bit rate hybrid speech coding approach which combines the benefits of the SYMPES (Systematic Procedure for Predefined Envelope and Signature Sequences) and zero cross and phoneme based segmentation is proposed. In the new approach, the SYMPES structure is developed in the phoneme based fashion. In order to achieve lower bit rates, some drawbacks such as computational complexity, relatively high encoding times etc. of the SYMPES are also eliminated in the new version. Experimental results show that in almost same bit rates very promising speech quality is obtained compared to the other conventional methods such as CELP (Code Excited Linear Predictive) coding algorithm.Yayın 2W wideband microwave PA design for 824-2170 MHz band using normalized gain function method(IEEE, 2013) Köprü, Ramazan; Kuntman, Hulusi Hakan; Yarman, Bekir Sıddık BinboğaIn this work, we present the design of a 2W linear wideband microwave PA (power amplifier) targeted to operate in 824-2170 MHz mobile frequency range covering GSM850, EGSM, DCS, PCS and WCDMA. The design is basically based on the NGF (Normalized Gain Function) method which is very recently introduced into the literature. NGF is defined as the ratio of T and |S-21|(2), i.e. T-NGF= T/|S-21|(2), shape of the gain function of the amplifier to be designed and the shape of the transistor forward gain function, respectively. Synthesis of input/output matching networks (IMN/OMN) of the amplifier requires target gain functions, which are mathematically generated in terms of TNGF. The particular transistor used in the design is FP31QF, a 2W HFET from TriQuint Semiconductor. Theoretical PA performance obtained in Matlab is shown to be in a very high agreement with the simulated performance in MWO (Microwave Office) of AWR Inc.Yayın Design of a broadband microwave amplifier constructed with mixed lumped and distributed elements for mobile communication(IEEE, 2002) Yarman, Bekir Sıddık Binboğa; Çimen, Ebru GürsuIn this paper, we designed a broadband microwave amplifier utilizing. the "semi-analytic method to describe symmetrical lossless two-ports with two-kinds of elements", namely, distributed and lumped elements in cascade connection. It is expected that the results presented in this paper will find immediate application to design analog/digital mobile communication systems put on MMICs or VLSI chips.Yayın Design and implementation of wideband microwave amplifiers based on Normalized Gain Function(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2014) Köprü, Ramazan; Kılınç, Sedat; Aksen, Ahmet; Yarman, Bekir Sıddık BinboğaIn this work, we introduce the design and implementation of wideband microwave amplifiers based on "Normalized Gain Function (NGF)" method. Normalized Gain Function is defined as the ratio of desired shape or frequency response of the gain function of the amplifier to be designed and shape of the transistor forward gain function. Synthesis of input/output matching networks (IMN/OMN) of the amplifier require target gain curves as the functions of normalized gain function to be tracked in two sequential nonlinear optimization processes. A prototype low power amplifier circuit is produced and measured to show the usability of the design approach.Yayın Generation of optimum signature base sequences for speech signals(IEEE, 2000) Yarman, Bekir Sıddık Binboğa; Akdeniz, RafetIn our previous publications [1-6], we proposed a novel method to represent signals in terms of, so called, "Signature Base Functions-SBF' which were extracted from the physical features of the waveform under consideration. In [1-6], SBF were determined in ad-hoc manner, which requires tedious search process, and they were not orthogonal. Furthermore, optimality of SBF was in question. In this work however, we suggest a well-organised procedure to generate "Optimum Orthogonal Signature Base Functions-OSBF' for selected waveforms, which in turn provides excellent means for signal representations. II is shown that the new method of signal representation, which is based on OSBF, requires less computation time with substantial signal compression and results in efficient speaker dependent recognition.Yayın A tunable inductance topology to realize frequency tunable matching networks and amplifiers(IEEE, 2013) Atilla, Doğu Çağdaş; Aydın, Çağatay; Köprü, Ramazan; Nesimoğlu, Tayfun; Yarman, Bekir Sıddık BinboğaCoverage of commercial communication standards such as GSM, UMTS, Wi-Fi and Wi-Max within a single transceiver chip is one of the most desired properties by wireless communication manufacturers. In this regard, communication companies are keenly interested in the design of high power amplifiers for broadband cellular communications to achieve this coverage. In this work, design of broadband tunable matching networks is investigated using Real Frequency Techniques. In practical applications, tunability is needed to compensate for the load impedance variations with environmental effects. In order to be able to work on sample structures, impedance transforming filters with proper topology are chosen and a broadband tunable matching network with a tunability strategy is developed. Eventually a broadband amplifier has been designed using the tunable inductor concept.Yayın On numerical design technique of wideband microwave amplifiers based on GaN small-signal device model(Springer, 2014-10) Köprü, Ramazan; Kuntman, Hulusi Hakan; Yarman, Bekir Sıddık BinboğaThis work presents an application of Normalized Gain Function (NGF) method to the design of linear wideband microwave amplifiers based on small-signal model of a device. NGF has been originally developed to be used together with an S-parameter (*.s2p) file, whereas this work enables the NGF to be able to work with explicit S-parameter formulae derived from the small-signal model of the device. This approach provides the designer to be able to use simple set of S-parameter equations instead of S-parameter file of the device. Representation of the device simply by several model equations not only eliminates the need of carrying large number of data but also provides the capability of equation-based easy, realistic and equispaced S-parameter data generation in any desired resolution in frequency axis without requiring interpolation. NGF is defined as the ratio of T and |S-21|(2), i.e. T-N = T/|S-21|(2), gain function of the amplifier to be designed and transistor forward gain function, respectively. Synthesis of output/input matching networks (OMN/IMN) of the amplifier requires two target gain functions in terms of T-N, to be used in two sequential non-linear optimization procedures, respectively. An amplifier with a flat gain of similar to 10 dB operating in 0.8-2.35 GHz is designed using a small-signal model of an experimental GaN-HEMT. Theoretical amplifier performance obtained in Matlab is shown to be in excellent agreement with the simulated performance in MWO (Microwave Office, AWR Inc.). A prototype low-power amplifier having a similar to 10 to 12 dB gain, operating in (0.9-1.5 GHz) is also produced and measured which yielded good performance results.Yayın A novel computed tomography image compression method based on classified energy and pattern blocks(IEEE, 2013) Gökbay, İnci Zaim; Gezer, Murat; Güz, Ümit; Gürkan, Hakan; Yarman, Bekir Sıddık BinboğaIn this work, a new biomedical image compression method is proposed based on the classified energy and pattern blocks (CEPB). CEPB based compression method is specifically applied on the Computed Tomography (CT) images and the evaluation results are presented. Essentially, the CEPB is uniquely designed and structured codebook which is located on the both the transmitter and receiver part of a communication system in order to implement encoding and decoding processes. The encoding parameters are block scaling coefficient (BSC) and the index numbers of energy (IE) and pattern blocks (IP) determined for each block of the input images based on the CEPB. The evaluation results show that the newly proposed method provides considerable image compression ratios and image quality.Yayın High precision synthesis of a richards immittance via parametric approach(IEEE-INST Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2014-04) Yarman, Bekir Sıddık Binboğa; Köprü, Ramazan; Kumar, Narendra G.; Prakash, ChackoA Richards immitance is a positive real function expressed in terms of the Richards variable lambda = tanh(pT) = Sigma + j Omega where p = sigma + j omega is the classical complex frequency. A Richards immittance can be synthesized as a lossless two port terminated in a resistance as in Darlington's synthesis such that the two- port consists of commensurate transmission lines. In this paper, a high precision method is presented to synthesize a Richards immittance as a lossless two- port constructed with cascade connections of equal length transmission lines, as well as short and open stubs. The new method of synthesis utilizes Bode procedure ( or Parametric Method) to correct an immitance function specified in the complex Richards variable lambda at each step of the synthesis. It is verified that new technique can synthesize a randomly generated Richards immitate function yielding 25 commensurate lines with the accumulated numerical error less than 10(-3.) A complete synthesis package is developed in MatLab and successfully integrated with the Real Frequency Technique to design broadband matching networks. Examples are presented to show the merits of the new Richards synthesis tool.
