Abstract

General Background: Passive 2-way crossover filters play a crucial role in dividing audio signals between woofer and tweeter channels, where their performance is highly dependent on the precision of passive components. Specific Background: Variations in capacitor and inductor values, along with their tolerances, can significantly alter crossover frequency, phase characteristics, and harmonic distortion, yet these effects are not fully quantified in practical implementations. Knowledge Gap: Limited studies provide an integrated empirical–analytical assessment of how component deviations influence frequency response, THD, and impedance stability in real passive 2-way filters. Aims: This study evaluates the influence of component tolerances on crossover frequency accuracy, filter slope behavior, phase stability, and distortion performance. Results: Experimental findings show that ±10–15% component deviations shift crossover frequency by 7.1–8.5%, reduce filter slope by 2.1–3.2 dB/octave, increase THD from 0.8% to 3.2% at 10W, and induce impedance fluctuations that shift the crossover point by an additional 3.2%. Inductors exhibit higher sensitivity (0.72–0.78) than capacitors (0.45–0.52). Novelty: This study provides a combined simulation–measurement analysis linking component tolerance to measurable acoustic deviations. Implications: The results highlight the need for ≤5% tolerance components and pre-assembly verification to ensure stable crossover performance. Highlights: Component tolerances significantly shift crossover frequency and reduce filter accuracy. Inductors have a stronger impact on system performance than capacitors. Using ≤5% tolerance components improves stability, distortion, and overall audio quality. Keywords: Passive Crossover Filter, Component Tolerance, Crossover Frequency Shift, Total Harmonic Distortion, Impedance Stability

Abstract

Traditional clam drying often suffers from energy inefficiency and inconsistent product quality due to manual temperature control that is unable to respond to dynamic environmental changes. This study proposes an adaptive hybrid control system integrating Fuzzy Tsukamoto and PID to enhance thermal stability and drying performance. Temperature and humidity were monitored in real time using a DHT22 sensor, while fuzzy inference and a self-tuning PID mechanism automatically adjusted control parameters. Performance was evaluated through error metrics, temperature stability, drying rate, and statistical validation. The system improved thermal efficiency to 85.2%, reduced Integral Absolute Error by 41.3%, decreased drying time by 22 minutes per cycle, and lowered overshoot by 87.3%. The optimal operating window occurred between 11:00–12:00 with a minimal error of 0.5 °C and a fuzzy output of 64.3, indicating a medium–fast drying rate. Temperature stability of ±0.8 °C results in a more uniform distribution of water content, texture and color, thereby increasing the selling value of the product. These findings demonstrate the strong potential of applying adaptive Tsukamoto–PID control to the seafood-based drying industry to improve process efficiency and quality consistency.

Abstract

The management of boarding houses (kost) is not only related to providing residential facilities, but also involves administrative payment management and access security for tenants. Common problems that frequently occur include late payment of rental fees and the use of conventional door locks, which are vulnerable to misuse such as key duplication and unauthorized access. These conditions make it difficult for boarding house owners to monitor payments and room access effectively and in real time. Therefore, this study aims to design and implement an ESP32-based smart boarding house door lock system integrated with RFID, Firebase, and a mobile application, complemented by billing status detection using the Logistic Regression algorithm. The system operates by reading the tenant’s RFID card as an access identifier. The tenant’s identity data is then verified through the Firebase database to determine the payment status. Door access is granted only to tenants with a confirmed paid status, while tenants with outstanding payments are automatically restricted from accessing the room. The Logistic Regression algorithm is applied to predict payment status based on historical payment data, such as the duration of arrears and the frequency of on-time payments. The research method used in this study is Research and Development (R&D), which includes problem identification, literature study, hardware and software design, system testing, and result analysis. The expected outcome of this research is to enhance room access security, simplify real-time payment monitoring for boarding house owners through a mobile application, and create a more efficient, practical, and integrated boarding house management system based on Internet of Things technology.
