Traditional election has many obscurity and people trust it difficult. Governments try to get dependence in society and it has no way except move to E-democracy. But there is many challenges in it. There are some security requirements such as Performance, Comfortable, Availability, Privacy, Eligibility that provide with Mobile voting simply.

Mobile voting is a kind of Electronic voting, or maybe is new generation that use of cell phone that is user interface for sending. As for construction of cell phone and its limitation, so we need to define a different and new security protocol that can observe max requirement of voting. We offer a new protocol with different structure from whatever said now. In this protocol, we use from blind signature in cell phone and Mix networks in Intelligence. Defining, implementation and employed trick make it possible the requirement such as Privacy, Receipt-freeness, Fairness, Verification, and Universal verification, Anonymity, Comfortable, Performance, Incoercibility, Accuracy and Robustness.

Nowadays, the proliferation of non-linear loads (especially power electronics equipment) leads to deterioration of the quality of voltage waveforms at the point of common coupling (PCC) of various consumers. In view of the wide spread use of harmonics-sensitive electronic equipment, power conditioning equipment is becoming more important for both electric utilities and their customers. With rapid development of power semiconductor devices in power and control circuits, a new generation of equipments that help maintaining a good level of power quality, namely active power filters, has been developed. Theirs advantages over conventional means are more flexibility and very fast control response. This paper aim to present the actual status of active power filters based on state of the art power electronics technology. A STATCOM or Static Synchronous Compensator is a regulating device used on alternating current electricity transmission networks. It is based on a power electronics voltage-source converter and can act as either a source or sink of reactive AC power to an electricity network. If connected to a source of power it can also provide active AC power. It is a member of the FACTS family of devices. STATCOM has no long term energy support in the DC Side and can not exchange real power with the ac system; however it can exchange reactive power. Also , in principle, it can exchange harmonic power too. But when a STATCOM is designed to handle reactive power and harmonic currents together it gets a new name – Shunt Active Power Filter. So a STATCOM handles only fundamental reactive power exchange with the ac system. In this paper, the present work is aimed at the study of a STATCOM or Static Synchronous Compensator - as it is otherwise called - as a solution to these (dynamic compensation of reactive and harmonic currents) power quality issues

This paper presents the performance of a text independent speaker identification and verification system using Gaussian Mixture Model(GMM).In this paper, we adapted Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficients(MFCC) as speaker speech feature parameters and the concept of Gaussian Mixture Model for classification with log-likelihood estimation. The Gaussian Mixture Modeling method with diagonal covariance is increasingly being used for both speaker identification and verification. We have used speakers in experiments, modeled with 13 mel-cepstral coefficients. Speaker verification performance was conducted using False Acceptance Rate (FAR), False Rejection Rate(FRR) and Equal Error Rate(ERR).

The authors are developing small UAV and studying flight stabilization control. To understand the characteristics of the aircraft is important for the control. The Vibration from rotor part has an influence on sensors which measures flight parameters. One of the reasons is the unbalance of the weight on the propeller blade. In this paper, trade edition and nylon propellers are selected for multi-rotor UAV. The static balance of a propeller can be inspected by a tool "propeller balancer." It is important to make adjustment for propellers balance at wings weight. In this paper, effect by propeller balance is verified.(current of Motor, characteristic of vibration) Centrifugal force which arises from unbalance of weight is proportional to the square of number of rotations. It was found that Resonant with Natural Frequency of arm part and vibration of rotor part was a problem to the flight-stability of UAV.

The study of Aerial-photography by Unmanned Aerial Vehicle(UAV), becomes more and more important especially for disaster countermeasures. The Vibration from rotor part has an influence on sensors which measures flight parameters. It was found that resonant with natural frequency of arm part and vibration of rotor part gave rise to problems to the flight-stability of UAV. The sensor values from resonance will increase the amount of aircraft control. It is considered to cause overturn and hunting motion of the aircraft. Based on the thrust generated from the propeller, was determined natural frequency of the rotor-arm part by Rayleigh method. Design to understand the natural frequency of aircraft parts, it is important to avoid the resonance. Therefore, the risk of resonance verified with the frequency of rotor rotation speed of propeller.

The efficiency of indium phosphide solar cells might be improved by a wide-band-gap window layer. In this work we was simulated using the one dimensional simulation program called analysis of microelectronic and photonic structures (AMPS-1D). In the simulation, hole doping concentration of Ga0.1In0.9P window was varied fro1018 to1020(𝑐𝑚−3). The rest of layer's doping were kept constant, By varying thickness of window layer the simulated device performance was demonstrate in the form of current-voltage (I-V) characteristics and quantum efficiency (QE).
