Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 2Compact Proton Accelerator in Uhf Band at Kahvelab(JACoW Publishing, 2022) Esen, S.; Adıgüzel, A.; Koçer, O.; Çağlar, A.; Çelebi, E.; Öz, S.; Özcan, V.E.; Karatay, Anıl; Yaman, Fatih; Yılmaz, Hasan ÖnderProton Test Beam at KAHVELab (Kandilli Detector, Accelerator and Instrumentation Laboratory) project aims to design and produce a radio frequency quadrupole (RFQ) operating at 800 MHz in Istanbul, Turkey using the local resources. The beamline consists of a proton source, a low energy beam transport (LEBT) line including the beam diagnostic section and the RFQ cavity itself. This RFQ is 4-vane, 1-meter-long cavity to accelerate the 20 keV beam extracted from plasma ion source to 2 MeV. Its engineering prototype is already produced and subjected to mechanical, low power RF and vacuum tests. In this study, the results of the first test production, especially the bead-pull test setup will be discussed. © 2022 Proceedings - Linear Accelerator Conference, LINAC.

E.; Kaya, U.; Türemen, G.; Ünel, N. G.; Yaman, FatihThe 800 MHz RFQ (radio-frequency quadrupole), developed and built at KAHVElab (Kandilli Detector, Accelerator and Instrumentation Laboratory) at Bogazici University in Istanbul, Turkey, has been designed to provide protons that have an energy of 2 MeV within only 1 m length. The RFQ consists of two modules and the test module of RFQ was constructed. The algorithm developed by CERN, based on the measurements generated by the tuner settings estimated through the response matrix [1, 2, 3], has been optimized for a single module and 16 tuners. The desired field consistent with the simulation was obtained by bead-pull measurements. In this study, we present low-power rf measurements and field tuning of the test module. © 2022 Proceedings - Linear Accelerator Conference, LINAC.

In a practical scenario such as monitoring air pollutants released from an unknown source, it is essential to estimate the location of the molecular transmitter (TX). This paper presents a novel Sensor Network-based Localization Algorithm (SNCLA) for passive transmission by using a novel experimental platform which mainly comprises a clustered sensor network (SN) with 24 sensor nodes and evaporating ethanol molecules as the passive TX. With the usage of the SN concept, novel methods can be developed for the problems in macroscale MC by utilizing the wide literature of sensor networks. In SNCLA, Gaussian plume model is employed to derive the location estimator. The parameters such as transmitted mass, wind velocity, detection time and actual concentration are calculated or estimated from the measured signals via the SN to be employed as the input for the location estimator. The numerical results show that the performance of SNCLA is better for stronger winds in the medium. Our findings show that evaporated molecules do not propagate homogeneously through the SN due to the presence of the wind. In addition, the estimation error of SNCLA decreases for higher detection threshold values. © 2020, ICST Institute for Computer Sciences, Social Informatics and Telecommunications Engineering.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 14Citation - Scopus: 14An Overview of the Recent Advances in Fbg-Assisted Phase-Sensitive Otdr Technique and Its Applications(IEEE, 2020) Yüksel, Kıvılcım; Koçal, Ertunga Burak; Jason, Johan; Wuilpart, Marc; Sainz, Manuel Lopez-AmoIn this paper, we discuss the operation principles, sensing mechanism, challenges and application areas of FBG-assisted phase-sensitive optical time-domain reflectometry. A special emphasis is given to the interrogation of fiber Bragg grating arrays for vibration sensing application. Results obtained by different research groups are compared in terms of performance characteristics and future perspectives. Recent progress obtained through our research collaboration are also presented. In particular, the detrimental spectral shadowing effect and multiple reflection crosstalk are analysed and mitigation techniques are proposed. © 2020 IEEE.Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 7Neural Network Based Robust Control of an Aircraft(ACTA Press, 2020) Tanyer, İlker; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver; Zergeroǧlu, ErkanOutput tracking control of an aircraft subject to uncertainties in the dynamic model and additive state-dependent nonlinear disturbancelike terms is aimed. Uncertainties in the aircraft dynamic model yield an uncertain input gain matrix, which is neither positive definite nor symmetric and an uncertain term in the error dynamics. To deal with the uncertain input gain matrix, a decomposition method is utilized to put error dynamics in a form where an uncertain positive definite matrix multiplies the auxiliary error but this results in the control input to be pre-multiplied first with a unity upper triangular matrix which is uncertain and then with a known diagonal matrix. A novel controller composed of a neural network compensation term and an integral of signum of error is designed. A novel Lyapunov type stability analysis is utilized to prove global asymptotic tracking of output of a reference model. Extensive numerical simulations are presented to demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed controller where robustness to variation of initial states and a comparison with a robust controller are also shown. © 2020 Acta Press.
