Abstract

The integration of frequency selective surfaces (FSS) with antennas has gained significant attention due to its ability to enhance key radio frequency (RF) performance parameters such as gain, directivity, and bandwidth, making it highly beneficial for modern wireless communication systems. In this work, we propose and investigate an ultra-wideband (UWB) elliptical antenna operating within the 5.2 to 10 GHz frequency range. To further improve its performance, we integrate the antenna with a 13×13 FSS array. The impact of the FSS on the antenna’s characteristics is analyzed, showing a remarkable gain enhancement from 2.6 dBi (without FSS) to 10.05 dBi (with FSS). These results confirm the effectiveness of FSS integration in optimizing UWB antenna performance, making it a promising approach for advanced wireless communication applications.

Abstract

A telemedicine platform needed to be developed to address the various challenges faced by patients in rural areas, such as the lack of specialist doctors, the distance to healthcare and the time spent accessing it, which can present a risk to their lives, especially for those with chronic illnesses. For its realization, we used Laravel 11, a framework that offers powerful features for building modern, high-performance applications. To enable seamless real-time communication, we integrated Laravel reverb, a robust package supporting live interactions, updates, and notifications. The database uses MySQL 8 in combination with PHP 8.2, ensuring performance, scalability, and reliability. The strengths of our systems compared with existing Tunisian platforms are real-time interaction between patient and doctor thanks to 5G, ensuring the transfer of data and access at the same time, real- time communications such as video and audio calls, live notifications and instant messaging.

Abstract

With the advent of Internet of Things (IoT) technologies, offering new possibilities for remote healthcare delivery, the medicine sector has undergone significant advancements in recent years. New tools are used, and diagnostics have become more accurate. We suggest creating a platform that can be extended for several applications. This platform has been realized to attest and demonstrate how IoT technology offers devices that could be integrated to provide novel services like remote consultations. Our proposed platform contains novel functionalities such as real-time video calls, instantaneous messaging, live notifications, vital signs monitoring, and electronic health record access. This is accomplished with enhanced qualities of remote healthcare services. Added to this, healthcare access equity will be guaranteed. The paper emphasizes the potential of Laravel 11 as a framework offering powerful features for creating modern and high-performance applications. We have integrated Laravel Reverb, a powerful real-time communication package, to provide seamless real-time communication with users. With our application, notifications and interactions are dynamically created. This allows instant updates to delivery and engages the user experience. The database was designed based on the latest version of MySQL 8, coupled with the advanced capabilities of PHP 8.2. This combination provides unparalleled performance, scalability and reliability. Added to that, IoT’s technology usage helps to improve healthcare access and delivery, especially in underserved areas. Human and machine cooperation is a main factor of the 5th industry level. This is widely respected by our platform. This offers great help, especially for those isolated and underserved areas, as we hope.
