Abstract: onthly and annual values of the total column ozone amount have been analyzed for five locations of Iraq for the period from 1979 to 2012 employing Total ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS) data point and (1o × 1.25o ) grid data, It is found that ozone variation is function of latitude, where the higher values of total ozone column occurs at the northern Iraq which represented by Mosul location, it decreases gradually from northern location (Mosul) passing by middle region locations (Biji, Baghdad and Rutba) to southern location (Basra). The values of Total ozone column start to increase gradually from November to reach its maximum at March then it decreases gradually to reach its minimum values at October. The analysis of the spatial distribution of the monthly average of total ozone column for each month of the year has been made. It is found that the largest of total ozone column amounts occurs systematically over the northern regions during winter whereas in spring and early summer months the maximum values of total ozone column directed to the northwestern regions of the Iraq. Latitudinal gradients in total ozone column are very strong especially during winter, spring and early summer months. The spatiotemporal trend analysis has been made by converting the gridded data from time domain to spatial domain, it is found that the results show that the total ozone column trends was negative during most months of the year, whereas the spatial trend analysis of the second period of study (2005 - 2012) presented positive total ozone column during all months of the year except February and September which presented a negative trends and the overall presented positive trends varied from 0.1 to 2.3 DU / year. Finally the results of the two period trend analysis indicated that the ozonelayer may be responding as expected to the reducing on ozone - depleting substances imposed by the Montreal Protocol.

Abstract: درجة حرارة سطح البحر تلعب دور مهم في التغير المناخي لانها تؤثر على درجة حرارة الهواء مباشرة فوق السطح ومعدل التبخر للماء والذي يؤثر بدوره على درجة حرارة الهواء وتكوين الغيوم والامطار. لذلك دراسة درجة حرارة سطح البحر مهمه في حل المشاكل للظواهر الجوية والبحرية ونظام المناخ للارض. يهدف هذا البحث الى دراسة تاثير تغيرات درجة حرارة سطح البحرالابيض المتوسط(SST) على درجة حرارة الهواء السطحية(T2M) والامطار(TP) لمنطقة الشرق الاوسط خلال الفترة .(1980 - 2009) البيانات المستخدمة في هذه الدراسة تم الحصول عليها من المركز الاوربي وتم عمل ثلاث شبكات للمتغيرات لايجاد العلاقة بين SST وT2MوTP ب استخدام طريقتين للتحليل الاحصائي. ففي الجزء الاول من الدراسة تم استخدام طرق التحليل الاحصائي مثل السلاسل الزمنية ومعامل الارتباط, وتم اختيار ثلاث مواقع (نقاط) على الشبكة في البحر المتوسط واربع مناطق في الشرق الاوسط (بغداد, عمان, دمشق, بيروت).النتائج اظهرت ان التغيرات في درجة حرارة سطح البحر لها اكبر قيمة للميل في شهر تموز (0.06) للنقاط الثلاثة واقل قيمة كانت في الفصول الانتقالية, في شهر نيسان كانت (0.01) للنقطتين الاولى والثالثة, في شهرتشرين الاول كانت قيمة الميل (0.04) في النقطة الثالثة. اما اعلى قيمة للميل لدرجة حرارة الهواء السطحية في الشرق الاوسط فكانت في شهر تموز (0.06) في مدينتي بغداد ودمشق وكانت اقل قيمة في شهر نيسان (0.006 - ) في مدينة عمان. بالنسبة لقيمة الميل للامطار فكانت اعلى قيمة في عمان وبيروت (0.3) خلال شهري كانون الاول وشباط على التوالي, واقل قيمة للميل كانت في بغداد (0.27 - ) خلال شهر كانون الاول. بينت النتائج ان درجة حرارة سطح البحر لها اكبر تاثير على درجة حرارة الهواء السطحية في شهر تموز, بسبب ان معامل الارتباط كانت له اعلى قيمة (0.58), (0.48), (0.50), (0.56) للمدن بغداد وعمان ودمشق وبيروت على التوالي خصوصا مع النقطة الاولى. اقل قيمه خصوصا للنقطتين االثانيه والثالثه فكانت في شهر نيسان, (0.007 - ), (0.08 - ), (0.08 - ), (0.08 - ) للمدن بغداد وعمان ودمشق وبيروت على التوالي.ولوحظ انه لاتوجد علاقة بين درجة حرارة سطح البحر والامطار للمناطق الاربع لان معامل الارتباط له قيم قليله في كل المواسم المطرية.في الجزء الثاي من الدراسة فتم استخدام طريقة التحليل بواسطة الدالة التجربيبة المتعامدة (EOF) للتغاير المكاني واخذت اول نمطين للـEOF الاول والثاني (EOF2, EOF1) وطريقة التحليل بواسطة (PC) للتغاير الزمني للنمط الاول (PC1). استخدمت شبكتين للنقاط للبيانات, الاولى تمثل شبكة SST لمنطقة البحر المتوسط والشبكة الثانية تمثل شبكة ((T2M,TP لمنطقة الشرق الاوسط وبقدره تميز 0.50 x 0.50 وقسمت فترة الدراسة الى فترات تمثل كل عشر سنوات.النتائج بينت ان نسبة التغاير المكاني لدرجة حرارة سطح البحر للـEOF1 ودرجة الحرارة السطحية كانت 97% و95% من التغاير الكلي على التوالي , وهذا يشير الى وجود علاقة محتملة بينهم, بينما التغاير المكاني للامطار سجلت اقل قيمة خلال فترة الدراسة.اما التحليل بواسطه التغاير الزمني بواسطه PC للـ SST فقط لوحظ وجود دوره قوية لها عشر قمم كل عشر سنوات من فترة الدراسة. | Sea surface temperature plays an important role in the climate change, because it affects the temperature of the air immediately above the surface, evaporation rate of water, cloud formation and precipitation. Therefore, the study of sea surface temperature is fairly essential for solving many meteorological and oceanographic problems and climate system of the earth. The aim of this thesis is to study the effect of sea surface temperature (SST) variation of Mediterranean Sea on air surface temperature (T2M) and rainfall (TP) in Middle East during the period (1980 - 2009). The data used in this study obtained from the Europe center (ECMWF) and made three grids of the variables in order to determine the relationship between SST and (T2M, TP) by using two statistical analysis methods. In the first part of study, statistical analysis technique used such as time series and correlation coefficient, and select three location (points I,II,III) on the grid of Mediterranean sea and four locations on Middle East (Baghdad, Amman, Damascus, Beirut). The results show that, The variation of SST has the highest value of trend in July (0.06) for the points I, II, III and the lowest value was in the transition season, in April was (0.01) for point I, III, in October was (0.04) for point III. While the highest value of trend for T2M in Middle East was in July (0.06) in Baghdad and Amman city and the lowest value in April ( - 0.006) in Amman city. For the value of trend of rainfall, the highest value was in Amman and Beirut (0.3) in December and February months respectively, and the lowest value of trend was in Baghdad ( - 0.27) in December month. The results show that the SST has the largest impact on T2M in July, because the correlation coefficients has the highest value (0.58), (0.48), (0.50), and (0.56) for Baghdad, Amman, Damascus and Beirut respectively especially for point I. The lowest value of especially for point II, III, in April was ( - 0.07), ( - 0.008), ( - 0.008) and ( - 0.008) for Baghdad, Amman, Damascus and Beirut respectively. And notes there is no relation between SST and TP for the four locations, because the correlation coefficient has small value in all rainfall months. The second part of the study use the Empirical orthogonal function (EOF) for the spatial variance and take the first two EOF (EOF1, EOF2) mode, and principle component analysis (PCA) tool for the temporal variation of (PC1) mode. Two grids of points have been used for the data; the first one represents the SST grid of Mediterranean Sea area and the second one represents the (T2M, TP) grid of Middle East of 0.50 x 0.50 and the period of study divided into periods every 10 years. The results show that the percentage of spatial variation of EOF1 for SST and T2M was 97% and 95% of total variance respectively, that indicate to have possible relationship between them while the spatial variance of TP record the lowest value in the period of study. The analysis made by the temporal variance of PC for SST show it has strong cycle with 10 peaks every 10 years of the period of study.

Relationships between solar activity (sunspot cycles) with some climate elements such as precipitation, Air temperature was the primary aim of this thesis, biased on many years of observations and using linear correlation coefficients to examine the relations between two variables. The methods of this research were organized in two domains as follows : The first domain : Studied the relation between solar cycles (for about eleven cycles) with (NAO) and with (ENSO). The main results were the long - term variations of NAO are negatively correlated with sunspot activity at the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century, with a correlation coefficient of ( - 0.65), whereas positively correlated for the period (1940 - 2010), with a correlation coefficient of (0.75), links (NAO and ENSO) with air temperature and precipitation have been also studied for three stations, Mosul, Baghdad and Basra. The main results showed that the NAO is closely correlated with air temperature in winter season (higher than summer) for the three stations, but this correlation relatively decreased toward south of Iraq. The relation between NAO and precipitation was oscillated between high and low correlations. The relations between the ENSO with air temperature and with precipitation were not obvious for the three stations. The second domain : is using continuous wavelet transformation by MATLAB technique. The relations between the solar cycles with annual precipitation for the period (1910 - 2000), air temperature, for the period (1871 - 2008) have been studied for Iraq. The results indicated that the sunspot cycles have three main periods, around 11, 21 and 33 year, while the studied climate elements had small periods (3 - 7) as well as the 11, 21, 33 years. After applying moving average according to the periodicities that found by continuous wavelet transformation, relations between solar cycles were closely related to the annual precipitation. Whereas the correlation of solar activity with air temperature was found to vary with place and time

Abstract: The ongoing depleting of oil and gas reserves, combined with the growing concerns about global warming, has made it inevitable to seek alternative resources of energy. To substitute oil produced energy and eventually minimize atmospheric degradation, renewable energy resources have increasingly become attractive and have been widely used. Therefore, this study focuses on one of the most important resources of renewable energy which is wind energy.Wind speed and direction data of Sulaymaniyah Province (airport station) in the north of Iraq in (2012) measured with 10 seconds time interval, were used to calculate wind potential in the site. Wind speed values with 10 seconds time interval are important to calculate wind turbulence intensity. Mean wind speed and standard deviation with (1, 10, and 60 minutes) time intervals were calculated, together with wind speed distribution, wind direction distribution, wind shear, and turbulence intensity; also, the appropriate class of wind turbine was identified.The impact of meteorological parameters (turbulence intensity, and wind shear) on the performance of wind turbine has been calculated using a MATLAB programming language, which was designed and implemented for this study.Results show that the turbulence intensity is the most significant parameter due to its major effects on the useful life time of a wind turbine. In addition, ambient turbulence intensity was determined, and the turbulence generated by wind turbines was calculated, this type of turbulence is called effective turbulence intensity (Ieff). It was found that wind turbine class (C) is a suitable choice to be installed at the study site (Sulaymaniyah airport station).VIAlso, results show that wind shear is a very important concept for wind turbine developers and installers, since a small difference in wind speed can lead to large difference in power output of a wind turbine. This can be achieved either by calculating wind speed at different heights using equivalent wind speed or by calculating wind speed at hub height using power law. It can be concluded that using equivalent wind speed to evaluate the site gives better calculation of mean wind speed available at that site than wind speed calculated at hub height only. In addition, shear exponent calculation as a function of height is more accurate than its assumed constant value (0.14), in power density estimation.Moreover, wind speed data, of Baghdad Province (Al - Mustansiriyah University meteorological station) in the middle of Iraq in (2008) measured with 15 minutes time interval, were used to calculate the characteristic turbulence intensity of small wind turbine, and monthly mean turbulence intensity. It was found that wind turbine class (B) is the best choice in Al - Mustansiriyah University site. In addition, the highest values of monthly mean turbulence intensity at Baghdad (Al - Mustansiriyah University) were obtained during November, and January, while the lowest values were in June, and July.Finally, wind data were analyzed using Weibull distribution function with its parameters (scale and shape), which were calculated using three analytical methods. Results show that the maximum likelihood method (MLM) gives the best calculation for Weibull parameters in both Sulaymaniyah airport and Al - Mustansiriyah University stations.

Abstract: Clouds has a crucial role in the dynamic and thermodynamics of the atmosphere. Precipitation from clouds is of vital importance for human life and activity. Cloud seeding, a form of weather modification, is the attempt to change the amount or type of precipitation that falls from clouds, by dispersing substances into the air that serve as cloud condensation or ice nuclei, which alter the microphysical processes within the cloud. The usual intent is to increase precipitation (rain or snow), but hail and fog suppression are also widely practiced in airports. The aim of this study is to develop and implement a numerical warm cloud models to simulate microphysical processes within clouds and investigate the effects of seeding process on the formation of raindrops. Results of the modeling the effects of solute on the formation of cloud droplets suggested that the super saturation is decreased by solutes and critical super saturation value depends on the activity of the solute. The results also indicated that Urea is the best solute for decreasing super saturation, as compared with other materials. Bulk modeling of warm clouds showed that updraft, fall speed, radius of cloud element, and surface temperature are the most important factors affecting the microphysical processes within the cloud parcel. An increase in these parameters can lead to an increase in the fallout from cloud. Simple model of warm cloud droplet suggested that updraft, initial drop radius, and liquid water content play an important role in the growth of cloud drop and rain formation. Numerical simulation of warm cloud seeding by salt solution showed that growth of most drops depends on seeding density value, the rate of growth of the cloud drop increase with increasing seeding density in a nonlinear way. The results illustrated that the radius of the large drop plays an important role in growth process while very small radius of small droplets has almost negligible effects on the growth process. It was found that rainfall is increased when seeding density is increased from 0 (the case of no seeding). The results also showed there is an optimum value for seeding density that gives the relatively largest amount of rainfall. Beside seeding density, the updraft radius of the cloud plays an important role in the formation of rain. Therefore the proper seeding density to be used depends on the updraft radius of the cloud

Abstract: Outgoing longwave radiation (OLR) is a thermal energy represents total upward radiation from the Earth - Atmosphere system towards space. Clouds and greenhouses gases trapped and absorb certain wavelengths of OLR and radiated back towards the Earth, this led to adding an amount of heat to the atmosphere. Variation in OLR values would be influenced Earth’s climate system by increasing or decreasing the average temperature of the Earth's surface. The present thesis involves analysis the spatiotemporal distribution of the outgoing longwave radiation (OLR) and developing an OLR estimation models. Dataset acquired from polar orbit satellite Aqua and its instrument the Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS). The study was carried out using data collected from January 2003 to December 2016 which covered a region [W : 37.5, S : 28.5, E : 49.5, N : 38.5] in a grid of resolution of 1º×1º. The 13 - years data from 2003 to 2015 were used for climatology and for establishing relationships in the developed models, multiple linear regression (MLR) and Artificial Neural Network (ANN)because the suitability of the technique to provide estimates, while the data of the year 2016 was employed to investigate the estimation capacities of these models of monthly - average OLR value in Iraq. The spatiotemporal distribution of monthly averaged values of OLR for 13 years period showed that Winter season have the minimum average values, about (270 15.8) Wm - 2. Start from Spring season OLR levels become increasingly intense and reach (306 16.2) Wm - 2. Summer season became more intense when compared to previous seasons, specifically over the southern parts of Iraq and dominate the highest OLR overall observed average values. These values reached (351 16.2), (360 14.5), (355 12.9) Wm - 2 for June, July and August respectively. As Autumn season start, the reduction of overall average OLR values start. The minimum average values reached in November with a (283.6 12.3) Wm - 2. The results also showed a zonally relationship between OLR and latitude. The spatial variance of OLR values were indicates an indirect zonally relation between OLR and latitude.Different observed meteorological parameters, including (Surface temperature (ST), Relative humidity (RH), and Cloud fraction (CF)) were offered as the input variables for modeling ANN and MLR to get OLR values. For the entire period, these three meteorological parameters were highly correlated (R= 0.980) with measured OLR. Furthermore, satellite data were used in three different locations over Iraq (Mosul, Baghdad and Basrah). Estimations of OLR values were evaluated by using several statistical bases. Comparisons among the three selected cities in test data (the year 2016) showed close agreement between the estimated OLR and measured OLR from AIRS. Mosul city at the north of the study area showed the best statistical performance indicators with the lowest root mean square error (RMSE) of (4.4966 and 1.3853) and highest correlation coefficient (R) of (0.9929 and 0.9993) for the two models (MLR and ANN) respectively, indicating model's efficiency and accuracy. Statistical analysis in term of β (regression constant) showed that surface temperature (1.823 to 2.311) tended to contribute significantly to high OLR values.The estimated results showed a satisfying performance for the ANN model when compared to the MLR model. These results obviously indicate the advantage of using the satellite AIRS data and both of MLR and ANN models to investigate the impact of the atmospheric meteorological parameters on OLR values on cities and country. Finally, the MLR model is used to map the estimated monthly average of OLR over Iraq.

Abstract: Widespread wireless communications system in the last few years, leads people to ask many questions about the advantages and disadvantages of those systems, especially about electromagnetic waves pollution and their effect on human health.The mobile device is frequently used by the general public from adult to child, one of the main sources of electromagnetic waves and very close to the human head. Therefore the focus of this research on the impact of electromagnetic waves from mobile to human health by measuring the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR), at the human head and the hand through SEMCAD - X that uses the Finite Different Time Domain (FDTD). SAR computation uses (FDTD) in the way the limited space of time, to calculate the specific absorption rate. The results have been compared with standards averaged over any 1 g of tissue and averaged over any 10 g of tissue. It didn't exceed the applicable standard.This work evaluates specific absorption rate (SAR) at different ages of three people. Firstly, old man, who was estimated to head 100% size of header used in the program SEMCAD - X. Secondly Adult man was estimated his head by 85% size of header used in program, and finally the child who was estimated his head by 65% size of header used in the program SEMCAD - X, the design hand has been used with all cases.The design of the mobile phone software works in four different packages of frequencies; the packets are the center frequencies 900MHz 1800MHz, 2100MHz and 2400MHz, when increased frequency the SAR increased but in the some state and frequency decreasing.The Evaluation of SAR in the head and the hand of the user device and the generic phone, the highest value of SAR decreases with increasing distance between the generic phone and the user's head and reducing the proportion was 50% for the old man, 40% for adult man and 35% for child. It can be noted that the angle of the rotation of the various frequencies is not fixed, while the ratio approximately is 25% for each angle of rotation.Also, it can be noted that for fixed frequency, the input power is increased to a double and the SAR have been used increased almost to a double.The different positions show that the methods of holding generic phone have a significant impact on the value of SAR. Therefore, the value of SAR can be reduced into 90% when using the correct method.The evaluation of SAR in these cases shows their influence on children and it was much greater than the adult human or old human by parentage 40% old man and 35% adult man.

Abstract: In this thesis, a proposed control strategy is presented to improve the performance of the PWM boost type rectifier when operating under different supply voltage conditions (balanced, unbalanced, and distorted three - phase supply voltages). The proposed control strategy is classified into two parts, the first part is voltage controller and the second part is current controller. In the voltage controller, Repetitive Controller (RC) is used to reduce the even order harmonics in the regulated output dc voltage (5.62V (P.P.)) so small output capacitor (480µF) is used instead of large capacitor (920µF) that is used with the conventional controller (PI controller connected in series with a LPF). RC also reduces the even order harmonics (0.014A (P.P)) which appears in the reflected dc current (IMAX), this leads to reduce the odd order harmonics (0.01A) which appears in the input currents. While in the current controller, enhanced Phase Locked Loop (EPLL) technique is used to obtain sinusoidal and balanced three phases, to construct the reference currents, which are in phase with the fundamental supply voltages Therefore, the supply - side power factor is kept close to unity (0.9036 for extremely distorting case). As a result the calculations of the reference currents in the proposed control strategy does not require Clarke or Park transformations, the same for the calculations of the positive or negative sequence components. A proportional controller is used to give excellent tracking between the line and the reference currents. Using this approach makes the control strategy easy to understand and also it saves calculation time of the control algorithms if implements in real time. The complete system with the proposed control strategy is simulated using Matlab/Simulink (Version 2012). The obtained results for the complete system using repetitive voltage controller are compared to the results of the system with using the conventional voltage controller. The results with the repetitive controller show better responses and stable operation in the steady state under different input voltage conditions, as well as in the transient response under different disturbances.

Abstract: Solar energy systems based on photovoltaic (PV) cells have attracted considerable interest in recent years due to their abilities of clear and seemingly limitless generated energy. Solar energy systems based on microinverter architectures are earning in publicity as they are less prone to shading and PV cell malfunction since each PV panel in the system has its own low power inverter.In this thesis two alternative modes of operation for the current source flyback microinverter are suggested : the discontinuous conduction mode (DCM), where a constant switching frequency (CSF) control method is applied, and the boundary conduction mode (BCM) between continuous conduction mode (CCM) and DCM, where a variable switching frequency (VSF) control method is used. These two control methods are analytically studied and compared in order to establish their advantages as well as their suitability for the development of an inverter for grid - connected PV applications.An optimum design methodology is developed, aiming for an inverter with the smallest possible volume for the maximum power transfer to the public grid and wide PV energy exploitation. The main advantages of the current source flyback microinverter are very high power density and high efficiency due to its simple structure, as well as high power factorregulation. The design and control methodology are validated by Powersimulation software (PSIM) and a laboratory hardware prototype is buildusing analogue and digital devices.The microcontroller type (PIC - 18F45K22) is used to implement perturb and observe (P&O) maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm, and C language is used for programing the microcontroller. The simulation and experimental results are obtained to verify the proposed flyback microinverter.

Abstract: هذه الاطروحة تتعلق بتحليل ومعالجة تاثير الضوضاء المحيطية (Clutter) لمنظومة الرادار النبضي، يتطلب رادار الكشف الالي للهدف استعمال عتبة الية (Adaptive threshold) لتحقيق معدل ثابت للانذار الكاذب وذلك لغرض السيطرة على الانذار الكاذب الذي تسببه تغيرات في الضوض | This thesis deals with the analysis and processing of clutter for pulsed radar system. Automatic target detection radar requires adaptive thresholding achieved by Constant False Alarm Rate (CFAR) circuit in order to control the false alarm caused by variations in clutter background.This work focus on worst radar environment that happens when abrupt variation in clutter background merged with multi - interfering target, to detect target in such environments it need robust CFAR algorithm that excise the target spikes and clutter edges from CFAR window in order to give best possible estimation to the noise background. two important algorithms studied which are CA - CFAR and OS - CFAR algorithms in additional to the modified CA - CFAR algorithm. All these algorithms were simulated with mat lab v6.1 and applied them to three different clutter models that represent different environment cases the CA - CFAR family failed to handle model two and three also OS - CFAR family except OSGO - CFAR that handle all models successfully. For modified CA - CFAR family only modified GO - CFAR handle all models successfully and comparing with OSGO - CFAR the modified GO - CFAR need less hardware and processing time because it did not need sorting process that is essential for OSGO - CFAR. Therefore, the modified GO - CFAR is chosen to implement by using FPGA and another important feature in modified GO - CFAR algorithm that is parallel processing since the spike selection process is done at the same time with summing of samples process that make this algorithm much less in processing time from any other algorithm that work in the same environment. The FPGA chip that used to implement modified GO - CFAR algorithm need only three signals from the radar receiver to mach with the receiver circuit correctly which are time base clock signal period reset trigger signal and the pulse duration time. Therefore, the FPGA chip can work effectively with almost any radar receiver system

Abstract: اصبحت محركات التيار المستمر عديمة الفرش شائعة جدا في الكثير من المجالات مثل في الصناعة والتطبيقات المنزلية؛ وذلك يعود الى مميزاتها العديدة على محركات التيار المستمر ذوات الفرش والمحركات الحثية؛ مثل كفائتها العالية, كثافة قدرتها العالية وحجمها الصغيرنسب | Brushless DC (BLDC) motors have become very popular in various fields such as in industry or home appliances; and that is due to their many advantages over the brushed DC motors and the induction motors such as their higher efficiency, high power density and respectively low volume. The traditional and most popular way to drive BLDC motor is by using six - step or trapezoidal technique. This technique however has several problems such as high torque ripple and high distortion in the currents. This thesis presents a BLDC motor drive system where the performance of the motor is improved on various aspects. The first aspect is to improve the speed response by using particle swarm optimization (PSO) technique to find the optimal parameters of the speed controller. The second aspect is to reduce the torque ripple associated with the traditional driving technique and also improve the dynamic response of the motor by using vector or field - oriented control to drive the motor. The third aspect is improving the total harmonic distortion (THD) of the voltages and currents by using multilevel inverter. The last aspect is driving the motor in sensorless operation for reduced cost and for applications where speed and position sensors cannot be used; this operation uses a flux - linkage observer with a phase - locked loop (PLL) structure to estimate the position and speed of the rotor. The control methods are modeled using MATLAB/Simulink program and the results show that the proposed systems has significant improvement in performance as compared with the traditional technique in terms of speed response, torque ripple and THD of the voltages and currents

Abstract: يستخدم اوكسيد الخارصين (ZnO) لكشف الاشعة فوق البنفسجية وذلك لكبر فجوة الطاقة وكبر طاقة اثارة الربط لهذا الشبه موصل. اوكسيد الخارصين كذلك يمتلك سرعة اشباع عالية وفولتية انهيار عالية. في هذا العمل تم تصنيع متحسس اشعة فوق بنفسجية نوع (معدن - شبه موصل - معدن) با | Zinc Oxide (ZnO) has been commonly used for ultraviolet detection due to large band gap and excition binding energy. ZnO has high breakdown electrical field, also has a much larger saturation velocity. In this work three ultraviolet Metal Semiconductor Metal (MSM) photodetectors were fabricated, based on ZnO and Silver (Ag) doped Zinc Oxide (SZO) with (2% and 4 % doping ratios) thin films. The technique used to prepare the thin films was sol - gel and spin coating technique by using Si (100) p - type. Silver interdigitated (IDT) electrodes were deposited on the films by a vacuum coating deposition technique to form the three devices.The electrical properties for the fabricated photodetectors (PDs) were studied using Semiconductor Characterization System (SCS) at room temperature ( 27 C^o). The applied voltage was in the range of ( - 5 to 5) V.The SEM images showed a non - uniform distribution of the Ag dopants, these dopants formed clusters and these clusters increased as the amount of Ag dopants increased. The mobility, carrier concentration, and roughness for the SZO films increased when compared to undoped film. The optical bandgap and the transmittance are decreased when the doping ratio is increased. The saturation current (I - S) was decreased by a factor of 4, and 12 for the devices based on Ag doped ZnO (with 2% and 4 % doping ratios) thin films, respectively. The sensitivity was significantly increased with increasing the doping ratio. This enhancement attributed to the roughness of the Ag dopants (clusters). The detectivity was increased for the devices based on SZO films. The high detectivity with low saturation current made the devices based on SZO films suitable for optoelectronic applications and integrated circuits. From the experimental data and analysis, it was found that the PD with ZnO : Ag 4 % doping ratio has higher responsivity and gain of 0.523 A/W and 257 , respectively. This is confirmed by thin film and device characterization which makes this PD suitable for UV detection purposes.

Abstract: The analysis of a silicon p - i - n photodiode with a uniform doping concentration in each layer is presented. The theoretical treatment aims at investigating the device operation and performance to obtain optimum values of photodiode parameters when operates as a photodetector.Large bandwidth, good responsivity, device speed and quantum efficiency at wavelength of interest, combined with its low operating voltage and capability, make this diode promising for optoelectronic receiver circuits for use in optical communication systems and computer interconnections.High speed silicon p - i - n photodiode which operate at 700 nm wavelength is reported. By using a reverse bias voltage to control electric field, a high quantum efficiency of 80% is attained corresponding to bandwidth of 6.5 GHz at depletion width of 5.36 ?m and biasing voltage of 27.5 V. The minimum detectable incident light signal power is 3.9 ?W corresponding to signal to noise ratio of 6.5*104. The results show that, there is trade - off between quantum efficiency and bandwidth. Since the intrinsic layer of a p - i - n photodiode can be made with a lightly doping concentration, a p - ? - n photodiode is also treated mathematically with a software tool, and the results obtained are very close to those for a p - i - n photodiode. The results are achieved with the aid of MATLAB programming tool version 8.1.0.604 (R2013a).

Abstract: The use Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) can be a form of Artificial Intelligence (AI). The feedforward neural network has a wide application area such as pattern recognition, image compression, and classification problem. Two models of a feedforward neural network are proposed and implemented using the schematic editor of the Xilinx foundation series 2.1i. Model - 1 consists of two layers and specializes in solving linear problems. Depending on the type of application, the input layer can receive 2 to 126 input values ordered in 256x16bits RAMs. The connection weights are distributed over four 256x16bits RAMs where, the four RAMs exchange their active role in swapping operation. Model - 2 is a modified copy from Model - 1 and consists of three layers and it is responsible for classifying non - linear problems.The mathematical model of the data set (weights and inputs) is presented in a matrix multiplication format. Principle Component Analysis (PCA) is a modern method used to reduce patterns set dimensionality and hence speeds up the training phase iterations. Speeds up the training phase will eventually minimize the over all system execution time. Each model is designed and implemented in five stages without using the finite state machine. It controls the processes of the forward propagation phase, error calculation, and training algorithm. These processes are managed by many control circuits like, J - K synchronized circuit, sign - detector/sum - sub control circuit, and timers that takes the role of finite state machine. These five stages make the design easily to implemented and modified. Modification in the system parameters (No. of inputs, No. of outputs, or No. of layers) can be performed in the appropriate stage without reservation.The flexibility, low costly, and real - time operation are the main features of the proposed design. Model - 1 execution time is 2.935µs and model - 2 execution time is 2.96µs, while the costs of two models are 1927 and 2017 CLBs respectively.These features compare extremely well with other existing designs with good advantages.

Abstract: This Thesis proposes on a project whose aim is to implement architectures for CFAR processor employed in radars. These proposed architectures are implemented by using Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) technique, with observance of feature desired as flexibility and speed without performance loss. This design written in VHDL Hardware Description Language that can be used to accelerate the implementation. In this thesis, the proposed by design is implemented using MATLAB Simulink on the Trimmed - mean Constant False Alarm Rate Processor(TM CFAR) to obtain system parameters and to test the flow of signal through the system, and then used FPGA devices. FPGA architecture of TM - CFAR processor is implemented to overcome the large processing time required in case of multi - target environment. The use of this technology is suitable because it offers high flexibility in modifying and even developing the required design with a reduction in the required number of hardware and cost. In addition to the main features of the processing chain architectures such as degree of parallelism, small size, accuracy and high computational speed, there is a requirement for generality and adaptively i.e. the ability to handle many different models of operation in different environments. The FPGA implementation of the design is achieved using Xilinx Virtex - II platform as a suitable selected programmable device. The development of the system software for this work has been done using Active HDL 3.5, and ISE Navigator 6.3i programs.

Abstract: In the last decades, the pattern recognition and classification are taking an important area of the research. One of the main applications of pattern recognition is the radar target recognition which is vital in radar system.In this this work, a radar signal were used and analyzed for three targets present a contribution is this trend (aircrafts SR - 71, C - 130 and AH - 64), and used as initial data, then variations are made to simulate the target signal variation (50 range profile for each target).A wavelet transform (multi resolution decomposition) is used to reduce the dimensions of radar range profile and then leads to reduce storage and computation.The wavelet transform including two procedures, the first one using approximation and details coefficients as feature extraction, while second procedure use related with the details coefficient only.Artificial Neural Network (ANN) is used as recognizer. The Feed Forward Neural Network (FFNN) and Elman Recurrent Neural Network (ERNN) are used. The network was trained using Supervised Learning Algorithms. The FFNN was trained by (Levenberg - Marquardt (lm), Bayesian regulation (br), particle swarm optimization). The (ERNN) was trained by (lm, br).The best recognition rate of three targets is obtained by using the feature extraction from (normalized details wavelet coefficient) and the ERNN trained by (br). The recognition rate in this procedure is about 96% compare with other methods.When adding the AWGN S/N=5db, the recognition rate reducing to 85%.

Abstract: Face recognition plays an important role in many applications like security, banking, access to buildings, and surveillance …. etc.Because of the face image can significantly change due to changing in some factors, such as lighting conditions, facial expression, and others factors, therefore face recognition is still a challenging mission. Useful properties of the Contourlet Transform (CT) are exploited in this thesis to investigate more discriminant features to enhance the face identification performance. In this thesis, a face identification system is suggested based on CT, and Multi - Layer Neural Network (MLNN) Classifier. The main reasons behind using the CT are : First, the CT supports progressive data compression/expansion, hence it is used for image compression. Second, the features in human face are not just horizontal or vertical. CT is utilized for feature extraction because it is a genuine 2D transform that can capture the edge information in all directions. After decomposing an image by CT, low and high frequency coefficients of CT are calculated in different scales and various angles. Most significant information of faces is contained in coefficients, which is important for face identification. The frequency coefficients are utilized as an input feature vector for a neural network classifier. Simple feed forward MLNN neural network is used to achieve the identification process. The network parameters are tuned to optimal values, in order to produce fair comparison between different types of feature vectors. To evaluate the algorithm performance, seven standard databases, and a proposed database are used. Some of them are of high variability, to examine the algorithm robustness against variability. In addition, the proposed algorithm is also evaluated using a generated database composed from five databases. Then the suggested method is compared with other classical feature - based methods such as, wavelet, Principle Component Analysis (PCA), and CT - PCA. The results indicate that the CT - based method has better identification (ID) rate, and is faster than the Wavelet - based and the PCA - based methods. This is due to the high sparsity of the CT and its efficient capability of compression. The ID rates obtained for a tested databases are Japanese Female Facial Expression (JAFFE) database (100%), face 94 database (99.34%), proposed database (98.55%), ORL database (96.5%), Senthil database (92%), Yale database (90%), FERET database (76.2 %), and FEI database (72.57 %), and comparing with other systems, an average identification rate 90.64% for the CT, 85.71% for the Wavelet, 53.92% for the CT - PCA, and 46.7% for the PCA for all tested databases.Moreover, the characteristics of low and high frequency sub bands a are studied with their effect on ID rates. The simulation results indicate that the best identification rates are obtained when using only the low frequency sub - band for all tested databases

Abstract: ظهر في السنوات الاخيرة اهتمام ملحوظ في استخدام متحسسات تركيز الهيدروجين (الرقم الهيدروجيني) من نوع ترانزستور تاثير المجال (FET) في التطبيقات الطبية الحيوية مثل دم الانسان, اليوريا واللعاب لان عملية تصنيع متحسسات تركيز الهيدروجين تتجه نحو التكلفة المنخفضة | In recent years, there is noteworthy interest in using pH - sensors based on Field Effect Transistor (FET) in biomedical applications such as human blood, urine, and saliva because the fabrication of pH - sensors is tending toward low cost, small size, disposable, and real - time measurement. In this work, Extended Gate Field - Effect Transistor (EGFET) pHsensors were built using thin films of Zinc Oxide (ZnO) doped with Palladium (Pd) as sensing membranes. The Pd - doped ZnO thin films with different molar concentrations (Pd = 0%, 2% and 4%) were deposited onto p - type Si(111) substrate by sol - gel method. The surface morphology of the prepared films was imaged and studied by Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The crystal structure of the fabricated films was examined by X - Ray Diffraction (XRD) test. The optical and electrical characteristics of the films were measured using spectrophotometer and Hall - Effect measurement device, respectively.The EGFET pH - sensor has been prepared by linking the fabricated sensing devices to the gate terminal of a commercial Metal - Oxide - Semiconductor Field - Effect Transistor (MOSFET CD4007UB).The fabricated sensing devices were immersed in buffer solutions with pH range of (pH 3 ? pH 11). The pH sensing characteristics of ZnO and Pd - ZnO/silicon EGFET devices were studied using Semiconductor Characterization System (SCS - Keithley 4200).The ZnO EGFET sensor exhibits voltage sensitivity and linearity of 31.5 mV/pH and 0.9809 (or 98.1%) in linear regime with pH range of (pH 3 - pH 11). The voltage sensitivity and linearity of Pd - doped ZnO (with 4% molar concentration of Pd) EGFET device in the linear regime with pH range of (pH 5 - pH 11) are 27.86 mV/pH and 0.9785 (or 97.85%), respectively. The experimental results show that the Pd - doped sensing films by sol - gel method cannot be adopted for whole pH range. This means that the doped films have fewer amounts of H+ ions sensing sites at its surface than undoped ZnO fims.

Abstract: Various types of binary phase - coded signals are studied in terms of their correlation properties. Then, matched filtering technique as well as mismatched filtering techniques is applied to the codes studied previously in order to reduce the sidelobes of the compressed binary phase - coded signal around the mainlobe, and consequently increase the detection of the received signal. Each filtering technique is performed using programs written by the programming language of MATLAB version 7.4.0.287 (R2007a). White Gaussian noise is introduced in the assessment made to both the filtering techniques and the codes that are adopted in this thesis.The MATLAB programs are tested on various types of binary phase codes that are adopted in this thesis to calculate the criteria to choose the best filtering technique. These criteria are peak sidelobe level, the integrated sidelobe level, and the signal - to - noise ratio loss. Later, the results, which are obtained according to these mentioned criteria, are used to test different filtering techniques on the chosen periodical and aperiodical binary phase codes to choose the best one.It is found that, the optimal peak sidelobe level (PSL) filtering technique is the best filtering technique for the aperiodical binary phase codes in terms of the peak sidelobe level, and in terms of an acceptable signal - to - noise ratio loss. The optimal integrated sidelobe level (ISL) filtering technique comes in the second place.While, it is found that, the mismatched filtering technique is the best filtering technique for the periodical binary phase codes in terms of an acceptable signal - to - noise ratio loss.

This antenna is modified by changing the patch from regular to irregular pentagonal patch with the same area and fixe the other parameter of the antenna. Therefore, the antenna is improved in term of bandwidth and gain, which gives bandwidth of 2.74 - 20 GHz. Many slots with the different shape and size are added to the irregular pentagonal patch to modify this antenna, which makes this antenna have bandwidth of 2.6 - 20 GHz which is suitable for the application that operating in this band. The second design consists of diamond patch and microstrip feed line on one side of dielectric substrate and partial ground plane has square slot on the other side. This antenna is modified by adding three slots in the patch which modifies the gain, so this gives bandwidth of 2.3 - 18.5 GHz.

In addition, switched - capacitor DC - DC converters are superior to inductor - based converters for high - conversion ratio and wide range of load variation. In this thesis , a multistage current - controlled switched - capacitor step - down DC - DC converter is analyzed , designed and simulated. The converter features are of good regulation capability and continuous input current waveform when two step - down converter cells are connected in parallel and operate in antiphase. Classical SC converter with pulse width modulation technique is also analyzed, designed , simulated. For the PWM converter and current - controlled converter , third - order state - space averaging technique is used for analysis. A fuzzy logic controller is used with the current - controlled converter to obtain fast dynamic response, low ripple in the output voltage and robustness against load and supply variations. A 70W ,48/12V and 12.5W 48/5V converters are designed and simulated ( Matlab/Simulink is used for simulation). The simulation results are obtained and compared for the above converters with different control techniques (PWM ,current control with PI controller and current control with fuzzy controller). The results for current - controlled converters with fuzzy controller show higher efficiency , lower ripples in the output voltage ,fast transient response, good disturbance rejection and very small steady state error of output voltage. In this thesis the value of the output ripple must less than 0.05 V and the efficiency should be more than 75 % for current control mode
