Abstract

The double bazooka antenna is an antenna developed for military applications and later adapted by amateur radio enthusiasts for high-frequency (HF) communication. The double bazooka antenna consists of two elements: the main element, which functions as the transmitter element that transmits and receives radio frequency (RF) signals, and the auxiliary element, which serves to widen the bandwidth. The main element is the most significant factor influencing the antenna’s parameter characteristics. This study aims to realize a double bazooka antenna with a semi-directional radiation pattern at an operating frequency of 433 MHz, which will be applied as an external antenna in a hybrid communication system. The antenna material used in this study is RG-8 cable with a relative permittivity (εᵣ) of 2.3. Antenna parameter testing was conducted at the Telecommunication Engineering Laboratory of the State Polytechnic of Semarang using a Spectrum Analyzer, Vector Network Analyzer, Radio Frequency Generator, and Antenna Trainer Kit. The results of the double bazooka antenna parameter testing showed a return loss value of -23,345537 5 and a VSWR of 1:1.24 at a frequency of 433 MHz, which is in accordance with standards, and has a gain of 19.55 dBi with a semi-directional radiation pattern and vertical elliptical polarization. The double bazooka antenna was successfully implemented in a hybrid communication system, with test results showing that the antenna operates optimally.

Abstract

Solar energy is one of the most promising renewable energy sources that can support the sustainable energy transition. However, the electrical power produced by photovoltaic (PV) panels is greatly influenced by environmental conditions such as irradiation, temperature, humidity, and wind speed, making them volatile and difficult to predict. This study aims to develop a prediction model based on Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) to estimate the power output of polycrystalline panels. Environmental data is collected in real-time, processed through the normalization stage, and then used as input in several model variants, namely pure LSTM, CNN-LSTM, LSTM-Autoencoder, and GWO-LSTM with metaheuristic optimization. Evaluation was conducted using R², RMSE, and MAPE metrics. The results showed that the pure LSTM model provided good accuracy (R² = 0.95; MAPE = 6.2%), while CNN-LSTM and LSTM-AE improved performance with R² reaching 0.97 and 0.96, respectively. The best model is GWO-LSTM, with R² = 0.98, RMSE = 0.31 kW, and MAPE = 4.3%. These findings prove that metaheuristic optimization in LSTM can increase the reliability of PV power prediction and support a more efficient energy management system.

Abstract

- The reliability of the electricity supply is a vital factor in ensuring the sustainability of modern poultry farming systems.Power outages or electrical disturbances can disrupt ventilation, heating, and lighting systems, resulting in decreased productivityon poultry farms. This study aims to design an Internet of Things (IoT)-based power supply detection and early warning system tomonitor electrical conditions in real-time and provide automatic notifications to farmers. The system was developed using aZMPT101B voltage sensor, an ACS712 current sensor, and a NodeMCU ESP8266 microcontroller, all of which are connected tothe Blynk platform for notification delivery. The research employed a prototyping approach, consisting of five stages: communication, planning, design, construction, and implementation. Testing was conducted in a closed poultry house located inWonolopo, Mijen, Semarang City. The results showed that the system was able to detect power disturbances with an accuracy rateof 97.6% and a notification response time of less than 3 seconds. The system proved effective in providing early warnings to farmers and enhancing the operational safety of electricity-based poultry farms.

Abstract

The implementation of IoT requires careful planning so that the system can function optimally. This study describes the planning of WSN development as a network in an IoT system with a long, straight topology, such as that found on railway tracks. The planning includes the use of appropriate technology with minimal power consumption. Three simulation scenarios were conducted using LPSAN, LPWAN, and a combination of both to compare their performance on a straight-line topology. The profile of each technology in LPSAN and LPWAN in terms of their performance in transmitting sensor data in the IoT system will be determined. The network lifetime performance is also determined to demonstrate the energy efficiency of each technology. Thus, the most optimal scenario in terms of configuration and topology in a straight-line network will be selected. From the experiments conducted, it is concluded that multihop topology is generally recommended for use in straight-line networks compared to star topology, except in conditions where nodes are very close to the gateway
