Design of an Interdigital Structure Planar Bandpass Filter for UWB Frequency

10.11591/ijece.v8i3.pp1654-1658
S. M. A. Motakabber , M. N. Haidari
A new topology of miniaturized interdigital structuremicrostrip planar bandpass filter for Ultra-Wideband (UWB) frequency has been discussed in this paper. The proposed design and its simulation have been carried out by using an electromagnetic simulation software named CST microwave studio. The Taconic TLX-8 microwave substrate has been used in this research. The experimental result and analysis have been performed by using the microwave vector network analyzer. The experimental result showed that the -10dB bandwidth of the filter is 7.5GHz. The lower and upper corner frequencies of the filter have been achieved at 3.1GHz and 10.6GHz respectively. At the center frequency of 6.85GHz, the -1dB insertion loss and the -7dB return losshave been observed. The simulated and experimental results are well agreed with a compact size filter of 19×21×0.5mm3.

Transceiver Design for MIMO Systems with Individual Transmit Power Constraints

10.11591/ijece.v8i3.pp1583-1595
Raja Muthalagu
This paper investigate the transceiver design for single-user multiple-input multipleoutput system (SU-MIMO). Joint transceiver design with an improper modulation is developed based on the minimum total mean-squared error (TMSE) criterion under two different cases. One is equal power allocation (EPA) and other is the power constraint that jointly meets both EPA and total transmit power constraint (TTPC) (i.e ITPC). Transceiver is designed based on the assumption that both the perfect and imperfect channel state information (CSI) is available at both the transmitter and receiver. The simulation results show the performance improvement of the proposed work over conventional work in terms of bit error rate (BER).

In recent years, a great interest has been observed in the development and use of new materials in microwave technology. Particularly, a special interest has been observed in the use of superconducting materials in microwave integrated circuits, this is due to their main characteristics. In this paper, the complex resonant frequency problem of a superconductor patch over Ground Plane with Rectangular Aperture is formulated in terms of an integral equation, the kernel of which is the dyadic Green’s function. Galerkin’s procedure is used in the resolution of the electric field integral equation. The surface impedance of the superconductor film is modeled using the two fluids model of Gorter and Casimir. Numerical results concerning the effect of the thickness of the superconductor patch on the characteristics of the antenna are presented.

10.11591/ijece.v8i3.pp1933-1938
R. K. Nadesh , M. Aramudhan
The increase usage of mobile users with internet and interoperability among the cloud services intensifies the role of distributed environemtnt in today’s real world application. Modern technologies are important for building rich, scalable and interoperable applications. To meet the requirements of client,the cloud service provider should offer adequate infrastructure especially under heavy multi-client load.To provide solution for large scale requirements and to statisfy the mobile client from the critical situation like lacking with bandwidth,connectivity issues,service completion ratio, we present adhoc virtual cloud model  for different scenarios that include single and multiple client configurations with various file sizes of various file formats for retrieving files in the mobile cloud environement.We evaluate the strategies with the socket and RMI implemented using java and identify the best model for real world applications. Performance evaluation is done with the results obtained and recommends that when sockets and RMI can be appropriately used in peer-to-peer environment when the mobile user cannot connect directly to the cloud services.

Development of Automatic Mixing Process for Fertigation System in Rock Melon Cultivation

10.11591/ijece.v8i3.pp1913-1919
Muhammad Khairie Idham Abd Rahman , Salinda Buyamin , M. S. Zainal Abidin , Musa Mohd Mokji
This work proposed an automatic mixing system of nutrient solution for rock melon fertigation according to the required electrical conductivity (EC) level. Compared to the manual practice, this automatic system will ensure continuous supply of mixed nutrient solution without the need to daily check and mix new nutrient. Thus, this easy to use and low cost automatic system will reduce the burden of the farmers. This system uses an EC sensor to automatically check the concentration level of the mixed nutrient solution. Other than that, the system only consists of electronic pumps for mixing process and an Arduino board as the controller. The controller will monitor the EC level and run the mixing process when the EC level is below the required level. By calibrating the EC sensors, the test shows that the automatic mixing system is able to accurately keep the mixed nutrient solution concentration in a 400 L mixing reservoir at several required levels.

Extended Bandwidth Optimized and Energy Efficient Dynamic Source Routing Protocol in Mobile Ad-hoc Networks

10.11591/ijece.v8i3.pp1460-1466
Bindiya Bhatia , M. K. Soni , Parul Tomar
With the increase in the evolution of wireless communication, the ad-hoc networks are gaining attention and are significantly becoming the technology solutions to the various problems. Mobile ad-hoc Networks (MANETs) are envisaged to grow as a main component in the today 4G architecture, and ad hoc networks are projected to be a significant element of the whole future wireless communication. The MANETs are infrastructure less, self-forming and self-organizing network in which there is no control of any centralized entity. The nodes are free to move around the network with dynamic topology. But this self formation, flexibility and scalability create many challenges and design constraints like hidden  terminal, limited bandwidth, limited energy of a node, unpredictable change in the topology etc. Bandwidth and energy are the scarce resources of the network. In order to effectively manage the consumption of bandwidth and energy, an algorithm is proposed which is the extension of traditional Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) reactive routing protocol. The extended protocol applies the mobile agents to carry the data. The proposed work is intended to optimize the bandwidth and making the protocol energy efficient.

We have demonstrated the performance improvement of L-band hybrid remote Erbium-doped fiber amplifier by introducing a phase modulator to suppress the stimulated Brilloiun scattering (SBS) effect in the transmission. The transmission gain has improved by 12.65dB while the noise figure has reduced by 47.1dB when 0dBm signal power is generated at 1590.05nm wavelength. Furthermore, the optical signal-to-noise ratio has improved from 7.81dB to 29.72dB when the signal power is varied from -30dBm to 0dBm. By implementing a phase modulator to the input signal somehow able to produce better performance regarding gain, noise figure and optical signal-to-noise ratio, especially at the higher signal power as the gain, has been transferred to the Stokes signal and the amplified signal.

Positive Interval Observer-based State Feedback Controller for Uncertain General Anaesthesia System

10.11591/ijeecs.v10.i3.pp1000-1006
Jing Jing Chang , S. Syafiie
The drug delivery process of general anaesthesia in the human body is most commonly described by the Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) model. Since the PK model is a positive linear system, the design of the controller can be treated as a positive stabilization problem. In this paper, a state feedback controller with positive interval observer was designed using a linear programming approach by taking into account the inter-individual variability among patient in the PK model. The designed controller was assessed by simulation on a pool of patients. The result shows that the design of a fix controller for the whole population is difficult due to the conflict between performance and robustness.

10.12928/telkomnika.v16i3.6756
S.A; Universidad de Talca Kamran , Javier; Universidad de Talca Muñoz
This paper proposes a novel voltage oriented decoupled control scheme for the DFIG’s Grid Side Converter (GSC) of a 2.3Mw, 690V, 50Hz, 6 pole doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) based wind generation system. For Rotor Side Converter (RSC), slip and constant V/Hz control scheme along with a feedback control via PWM is selected but not explained in this paper.Based on the per-phase steady state equivalent circuit model of a DFIG, relationship between stator and rotor voltages is developed. Voltage oriented decoupled control scheme for GSC is designed in such a way that it can keep the dc link voltage constant by regulating grid reactive power when required. The space vector modulation (SVM) algorithm is explained breifly and implemented for the two-level GSC. MATLAB/SIMULINK (R2015a) software validates the proposed control scheme for GSC.

Mohd Saiful Azimi Mahmud , Salinda Buyamin , Musa Mohd Mokji , M.S. Zainal Abidin
Environmental condition is a significant factor that needs to be controlled in mushroom production. Mushrooms are unable to grow if the temperature is higher than 33°C or lower than 25°C. Thus, this work focuses on developing an automatic environmental control system to provide optimum condition to mushroom production house. Environmental factors considered in the system are temperature, humidity and carbon dioxide. For this, DHT11 temperature humidity sensor and MQ135 CO2 sensor are connected to the ESP8266 Wi-Fi module to become IoT (Internet of Things) sensors that send big amount of data to the internet for monitoring and assessment. This enable users to monitor the environmental condition anywhere whenever accessing the internet. Based on the analysis of the data, the system will automatically on and off the irrigation system to put the temperature at an optimum level.

Multiwavelength Fiber Laser based on Bidirectional Lyot Filter in Conjunction with Intensity Dependent Loss Mechanism

10.11591/ijeecs.v10.i3.pp840-846
A. H. Sulaiman , N. Md. Yusoff , N. A. Cholan , M. A. Mahdi
We experimentally demonstrate a multiwavelength fiber laser (MWFL) based on bidirectional Lyot filter. A semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) is used as the gain medium, while its combination with polarization controllers (PCs) and polarization beam combiner (PBC) induces intensity dependent loss (IDL) mechanism. The IDL mechanism acts as an intensity equalizer to flatten the multiwavelength spectrum, which can be obtained at a certain polarization state. Using different ratio of optical splitter has affected to multiwavelength flatness degradation. Subsequently, when we removed a polarizer in the setup, the extinction ratio (ER) is decreased. Ultimately, with two segments of polarization maintaining fiber (PMF), two channel spacings can be achieved due to splicing shift of 0° and 90°.

This paper describes a new risk assessment model for application development and its implementation. The model is developed using a Bayesian network and Boehm’s software risk principles. The Bayesian network is created after mapping top twenty risks in software projects with interrelationship digraph of risk area category. The probability of risk on the network is analyzed and validated using both numerical simulation and subjective probability from several experts in the field and a team of application developers. After obtaining the Bayesian network model, risk exposure is calculated using Boehm's risk principles. Finally, the implementation of the proposed model in a government institution is shown as a real case illustration.

ETDCC: Energy-Efficient Transmission Scheme for Dynamic Climatic Conditions in WSN

10.12928/telkomnika.v16i3.8513

In this paper, an energy-efficient transmission scheme for dynamic climatic conditions (ETDCC) has been proposed in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). This scheme is based on IEEE802.15.4 standard. In this method, open-loop and closed-loop feedback systems are used for snowfall variation. An open-loop system is utilized for snowfall-aware link quality compensation and estimation. However, closed-loop system aids to split the network into two logical regions, resulting the overhead of total control packets is minimized. According to link quality changes due to snowfall variation, the transmitting power is decided on the basis of current number of neighbor nodes and threshold power loss for each region. The simulated results depict that the proposed scheme with reduced control packets overhead adjusts transmitting power level (Plevel) to compensate link quality. This scheme based on threshold level is compared with the conventional approach that comprises the division of regions without threshold level.

The growth of image databases in many domains, including fashion, biometric, graphic design, architecture, etc. has increased rapidly. Content Based Image Retrieval System (CBIR) is a technique used for finding relevant images from those huge and unannotated image databases based on low-level features of the query images. In this study, an attempt to employ 2nd level Wavelet Based Color Histogram (WBCH) on a CBIR system is proposed. Image database used in this study are taken from Wang’s image database containing 1000 color images. The experiment results show that 2nd level WBCH gives better precision (0.777) than the other methods, including 1st level WBCH, Color Histogram, Color Co-occurrence Matrix, and Wavelet texture feature. It can be concluded that the 2nd Level of WBCH can be applied to CBIR system.
