In this paper, we propose a hybrid approach for designing Intrusion Detection Systems. This approach is based on a Fuzzy Genetic Machine Learning Algorithm to generate fuzzy rules. The rules are able to solve the classification problem in designing an anomaly IDS. The proposed approach supports multiple attack classification. It means that, it is able to detect five classes consist of Denial of Service, Remote to Local, User to Root, Probing and normal classes. We present a two-layer optimization approach based on Pittsburgh style and then combine it with Michigan style. To improve the performance of the proposed system, we take advantages of memetic approach and proposed an enhanced version... 

Superconducting materials are known to produce intermodulation distortion and other non-linear effects. In microstrip structures, the non-linearity depends on the current distribution on the strip which is mainly determined by the geometrical structure of the device. The current distribution in superconducting parallel-coupled microstrip lines is computed by a numerical approach based on a three-dimensional finite element method. This computed current distribution is used to produce a non-linear circuit model for parallel-coupled superconducting lines. A numerical technique based on the harmonic balance approach is used for non-linear analysis of the proposed equivalent circuit. To validate... 

In this article, a novel miniature broadband omnidirectional antenna is proposed. This antenna is suitable to use in vehicles, especially in unmanned aerial vehicles, since it will be folded in order to reduce its size when the unmanned aerial vehicle lands. A special kind of wire discone antenna is chosen to achieve all desired goals. Passive broadband impedance matching at the input of the antenna improves the voltage standing-wave ratio. A telescopic fiberglass axis is used in the antenna structure in order to reduce size and increase wind resistance. The assessment of the novel structure in implementing the antenna is confirmed by experimental measurements. The measurement results reveal... 

There are unusual nonlinear behaviors in superconducting materials, especially at low temperatures. This paper describes the procedure to reliably predict this nonlinearity in superconducting microstrip transmission lines (SMTLs). An accurate nonlinear distributed circuit model, based on simultaneously considering of both quadratic and modulus nonlinearity dependences, is proposed. All parameters of the equivalent circuit can be calculated analytically using proposed closed-form expressions. A numerical method based on Harmonic Balance approach is used to predict nonlinear phenomena like intermodulation distortions and third harmonic generations. Nonlinear analyses of the SMTLs at the... 

Superconducting materials are known to exhibit nonlinear effects and to produce harmonic generation and intermodulation distortion in superconductive circuits. In planar structures, these nonlinearities depend on the current distribution on the strip which is mainly determined by the structure of the device. This paper investigates the current distribution at the step-in-width discontinuity in superconducting microstrip transmission lines, which is computed by a numerical approach based on a 3-D finite-element method. This current distribution is used to obtain the parameters of the nonlinear circuit model for the superconducting microstrip step-in-width discontinuity. The proposed... 

Superconducting devices are known to produce nonlinear effects. In planar structures, these nonlinearities depend on the current distribution on the strip, which definitely depends on the structure of device. This paper used a numerical method based on 3D-FEM to obtain the current distribution in the open-ends and gaps in the superconducting microstrip structures. This is used to present the nonlinear distributed circuit modeling of these discontinuities and its impact on the nonlinear phenomenon. This nonlinear circuit model is used in the Harmonic Balance (HB) method to analyze nonlinearity in the superconducting microwave devices. Therefore, this simple accurate enough nonlinear circuit...

Quarter-wavelength superconducting spiral resonators have been used to realize a coplanar waveguide bandpass filter and bandstop filter around the center frequency of 6 GHz. These compact coplanar waveguide filters have been made from 300-nm-thick NbTiN thin film on a 525-μm-thick silicon substrate. The bandpass filter is a six-pole Chebyshev filter with two zero transmissions due to nonadjacent coupling in its structure. Accurately microfabricated air-bridges have been used to suppress the undesired slot-line mode in this filter. The bandstop filter is a very simple two-pole structure that used wire bonding to suppress the slot-line mode. Measurements have been done at a temperature of 4.2... 

Design of an Ultra-Wideband 3-dB quadrature (90°) Hybrid using ADS and HFSS softwares plus Measurement report are presented. Simultaneous Use of these two softwares lead to fast and accurate design procedure. The coupler is realized in broadside stripline and with the connection of coupled regions in tandem structure. The measured data agrees well with the expected values from simulations, and shows a good ultra wide bandwidth response over the frequency range of 1-10 GHz. Measurements showed an amplitude unbalance of ±1.5 dB, a phase unbalance of 90°±7° , and an isolation and a return loss characteristics of more than 14 dB over the frequency of 1 to 10 GHz

Lake Urmia (LU) is the second largest hypersaline lake in the world. Lake Urmia's water level has dropped drastically from 1277.85 m to 1270.08 m a.s.l (equal to 7.77 m) during the last 20 years, equivalent to a loss of 70% of the lake area. The likelihood of lake-groundwater connection on the basin-scale is uncertain and understudied because of lack of basic data and precise information required for physically-based modeling. In this study, cross-correlation analysis is applied on a various time-frames of water level of the lake and groundwater levels (2001–2018) recorded in 797 observation wells across 17 adjacent aquifers. This provides insightful information on the lake-groundwater... 

In this paper we explore the existence of periodic solutions of a nonautonomous semi-ratio-dependent predator-prey dynamical system with functional responses on time scales. To illustrate the utility of this work, we should mention that, in our results this system with a large class of monotone functional responses, always has at least one periodic solution. For instance, this system with some celebrated functional responses such as Holling type-II (or Michaelis-Menten), Holling type-III, Ivlev, mx (Holling type I), sigmoidal [e.g., Real and mx2/((A + x)(B +x))] and some other monotone functions, has always at least one ω-periodic solution. Besides, for some well-known functional responses...
