The main part of anesthesia depends on the method of control of the drug type and the patient's analgesic status by regulating and concealing the hypnotic process which depends on the clinical indicators, such as heart beat rate, blood pressure, and BIS index derived from spectral analysis of the brain's electrical plan. In this work, the jacobian method was proposed to obtain the linear model of the nonlinear model where two robust controllers, namely the loop controller and the fixed loop controller, were designed to control the DOA system. The discussion was attended by the head of the department (Asst. Prof. Dr. Azad Raheem Kareem) and the assistant head of the department for administrative affairs. On this occasion, we congratulate the student (Rouneq Adnan Mahmoud) and wish her all the success.

Parallel robots are characterized by their high performance in terms of accuracy, rigidity, acceleration and their ability to handle heavy loads. Parallel robots were used in many applications for various tasks such as the manufacture of automatic tools, the pointing device for telescopes, the flight simulator and satellite measuring devices. In this research, the intelligent control strategy was applied using the type-1 fuzzy logic (T1FL) controller and the interval type-2 fuzzy logic (IT2FL) controller to control the gripper of the 3-RRR parallel-type robot. A comparison was made between the (T1FL) controller and the (IT2FL) controller in terms of track following and the robustness characteristics of the controllers. The effectiveness of each controllers was assessed based on four paths, namely the circle, square, triangle and infinity. On this occasion, we congratulate the student (Huda Talib Najim) and wish her all the success.

Wireless communications are growing exponentially, and new standards are being applied at a high pace. The development of radars is costly and time-consuming due to redundancy design of the mask cost. Moreover, as radio standards become increasingly complex, these costs are increasing. This defends a program-specific radio (SDR) approach, where one piece of flexible radios is reused for different applications and standards, downloadable and under program control. As a result, this research focuses on the implementation of a digital 16QAM SDR transmitter and receiver system based on IEEE 802.11.a. The research provides a design methodology consisting of three phases (or goals). In the first phase, 16 QAM transmitters and receivers were implemented using 16 quadrature formation techniques. The second stage was the design of a random bit generator using single-dimensional chaotic schemes (logistic map) by converting the equation to the system generator design. The third phase was to verify the performance of the proposed system by observing the bit error rate using the Adaptive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) channel, changing the signal-to-noise ratio, and the use of 1 W of power. The system was implemented using MATLAB / Simulink 2011a and the system generator. The simulation results show that the proposed transceiver and receiver system has better performance based on AWGN channel and values of E_b ranged between 0 and 10 dB. For the system, the BER was improved to be between 10-2 and 10-3. However, the transceiver and receiver system provided better performance than the theoretical result for 1000 seconds. On this occasion, we congratulate the student (Reem Hashim Ahmed) and wish her all the success.
