The voltage control in the power distribution network is challenged firstly by constantly increasing in power demand and secondly by a growing number of distributed connections, which significantly changes the load flow in the network. Situation is worsening with the current heavily implemented micro-generation of Solar PV. Consequently, the uncontrollable rapid changes in the power distribution network would affect voltage instability at the feeder with wide area power demand. Voltage instability would affect the energy efficiency of the electrical equipment. Moreover, the lifespan of some equipment would be shortened due to the excessive and unstable voltage supplied. The proposed research aims to implement the low impedance voltage optimization system in solving the existing problem. The voltage optimization system had been tested on both resistive and inductive loads. The power consumption of the loads had been measured at a few discrete values of voltage optimization within the statutory region. Further tests were conducted on industrial water pump, general lightings with mixed loads, office building, restaurant and plastic injection moulding machine. The power measurements were logged and the results in term of power consumption were analysed. The results showed that the proposed optimization mechanism successfully optimize and saved 6.81%, 14.42%, 13.97%, 12.23%, and 26.23% of the power consumptions in respective tests.

For next generation of 5G mobile base station antennas, multibeam, multifrequency and low sidelobe characteristics requested. Simplify the feeding network will contribute a low feeder loss and frequency dependent. From the previous research by the author, low sidelobe level reported by density tapered array configuration from -13 dB to -16 dB and the result maintained for wideband operation frequency at 28 GHz, 42 GHz, and 56 GHz. However, the grating lobe has occurred due to element spacing larger than a wavelength of higher frequency (56 GHz). In this paper, an investigation was made of the performance of radiation pattern for unequally microstrip linear array antenna in frequency 42 GHz and 56 GHz by loading parasitic elements. The effect of parasitic element to the impedance, gain, and sidelobe level of unequally microstrip linear spaced tapered array also examined. The design has been simulated using Ansoft High Frequency Structural Simulator (HFSS) ver 16.0.

New method of secure image encryption and decryption scheme based on the chaos is proposed. There are two steps are followed after the preprocessing step in the proposed system namely, Encryption and Decryption. In preprocessing, images are denoised using median filter. Then the original input images will be encrypted by using the chaos mapping algorithm. At last the original images are retrieved back from the encrypted image by using the key that is specified during the encryption process for the decryption of the original images. Then the histogram mapping is done for the encrypted and the decrypted images. The proposed system is tested on well-known images like Lena, Mandrill, Clown and Barbara. The experimental results have demonstrated that the introduced image encryption scheme can achieve high security for practical image encryption.

A magnetorheological brake (MRB) is a device to dissipate rotational energy using magnetorheological fluids (MRF). MRB can change its braking torque quickly in response to external magnetic field strength. The brake is rotational, utilizing the MRF in shear mode. In this study, the geometrical design of the MRB, magnetic circuit and MRF flow path is addressed. Mathematical models are presented that describe the braking torque of the MRB. A novel prototype is introduced combining T-shape rotor model with serpentine flux magnetic circuit configuration. The rotor member is selected to direct the flux concentration at that location. Serpentine flux configuration is selected to achieve higher torque without increasing the size of MRB by activated more surface area of MRF with the magnetic flux. The finite element method is used to evaluate the magnetic flux density in MRB using FEMM 4.2. FEMM results showed that this novel design could provide sufficient magnetic flux along MRF flow path. Finally, the influence of input current to the MRB on braking torque is investigated. It is found that the braking torque in MRB increases with the increase of the input current. The prototype is formulated as foot-drop prevention orthotic. The MRB would be further integrated into ankle-foot orthoses for post-stroke patients. The design is formulated as a preliminary geometrical design, aiming to obtain the minimum required braking torque.

One of the imaging modalities for early detection of breast cancer malignancy is ultrasonography (USG). The malignancy can be analysed from the characteristic of nodule shape. This study aims to develop a method for classifying the shape of breast nodule into two classes, namely regular and irregular classes. The input image is pre-processed by using the combination of adaptive median filter and speckle reduction bilateral filtering (SRBF) to reduce speckle noises and to eliminate the image label. Afterwards, the filtered image is segmented based on active contour followed by feature extraction process. Nine extracted features, i.e. roundness, slimness and seven features of invariant moments, are used to classify nodule shape using multi-layer perceptron (MLP). The performance of the proposed method is evaluated using 105 breast nodule images which comprise of 57 regular and 48 irregular nodule images. The results of classification process achieve the level of accuracy, sensitivity and specificity at 96.20%, 97.90% and 94.70%, respectively. These results indicate that the proposed method successfully classifies the breast nodule images based on shape analysis.
