Commonly used image fusion techniques generally produce good results for images obtained from the same sensor, with a standard ratio of spatial resolution (1:4). However, an atypical high ratio of resolution reduces the effectiveness of fusion methods resulting in a decrease in the spectral or spatial quality of the sharpened image. An important issue is the development of a method that allows for maintaining simultaneous high spatial and spectral quality. The authors propose to strengthen the pan-sharpening methods through prior modification of the panchromatic image. Local statistics of the differences between the original panchromatic image and the intensity of the multispectral image are used to detect spatial details. The Euler’s number and the distance of each pixel from the nearest pixel classified as a spatial detail determine the weight of the information collected from each integrated image. The research was carried out for several pan-sharpening methods and for data sets with different levels of spectral matching. The proposed solution allows for a greater improvement in the quality of spectral fusion, while being able to identify the same spatial details for most pan-sharpening methods and is mainly dedicated to Intensity-Hue-Saturation based methods for which the following improvements in spectral quality were achieved: about 30% for the urbanized area and about 15% for the non-urbanized area.

The Harmonics control of any inverters can be decided by the PWM incorporated for the switches. In recent years the carrier and reference modification based research is going on the inverter field. This paper suggests that the alteration of carriers and references of the three phase voltage source inverter enhance the ability to decrease the harmonic content.This enhanced realization deals with the carrier and reference modification arrangement for three phase voltage source inverter through amalgamating the boosted reference and random triangular carrier. The boosted reference is the addition of sine reference with injection of 1/3rd of reference amplitude (3fs) in the middle portion of the reference wave. i.e., [Formula: see text] to [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] to [Formula: see text] . The proposed PWM scheme use two carriers, one is Triangle wave and another one is inverted Triangle wave. The process of selecting the winning carrier among the two triangle carriers is purely based on the LFSR technique. The spectral quality of the induction motor drives has improved by the random carriers. The simulation and experimental values are proving the validity of the PWM method. The PWMs are generated by using parallel processing enabled FPGA processor.


Plants perceive shade by responding to both the fluence rate and to the spectral quality of the natural radiation environment. Changes in fluence rate are perceived by separate photoreceptors absorbing in both the blue and the red wavebands. The identity of the photoreceptor (or photoreceptors) responding to changes in the fluence rate of blue light is unknown (see Briggs, this volume). Physiological responses to changes in the fluence rate in the red waveband appear to be mediated through phytochrome. The relative roles played by the blue-light-absorbing photoreceptor and phytochrome in determining the response to changes in fluence rate varies between species and organs and is also dependent on the physiological age of the plant. Evidence is also presented that supports the concept that phytochrome functions to perceive the specific form of shade caused by surrounding competitive vegetation.

Drying and sortation are the most important steps to improve green coffee beans and cup quality. However, farmers very often neglect these steps. Therefore, a simple technique and soft approach are required to encourage farmers to implement drying and sortation technology. The study aim is to assess suitable drying and sortation technology to improve green coffee beans and cup quality to local culture in Jayawijaya Regency, Papua. The study was conducted using 2 factors; a. Combination of drying floor using a tarp and without sortation (DFWTS), b. Combination of drying tables and with sortation (DTWS). Drying tables were designed as two separate parts. The first part was the permanent tables, and the second part was removable boxes in dimension 80 x 80 cm located on top of the permanent tables. Descriptive analysis was conducted based on SNI 01-2907-2008 by the Indonesian Coffee and Cocoa Research Institute. The results show DTWS produce green coffee beans in compliance with SNI 01-2907-2008 at 4a grade, compared to DFWTS is rejected. Green coffee beans quality is likely to affect cup quality. DTWS obtain cup quality score 83.0 compare to DFWTS is 81.25. In conclusion, DTWS improve green coffee beans and cup quality.
