Abstract

The development of electric vehicle (EV) technology is advancing rapidly in various aspects, driven by the need for environmentally friendly and efficient transportation solutions. Electric vehicles are powered by electric motors, which require an energy source in the form of a battery arranged into a battery pack. A battery pack consists of battery cells arranged in series and parallel to meet the energy specifications required by the electric vehicle. Currently, lithium batteries are considered the best choice for electric vehicles due to their advantages in energy density and cost per cycle compared to other types of batteries. In the design of this battery pack, the vehicle's specifications require a voltage of 144V to power the electric motor, with a target usage time of 5 hours, leading to a designed capacity of 220Ah. The battery used is a Lithium Ferro Phosphate (LFP) type with specifications of 3.2V and 22Ah. Based on mathematical calculations, the battery pack design utilizes 10 batteries in parallel and 48 in series to achieve the required specifications. The design also takes into account the maximum storage space inside the vehicle, with the battery pack divided into two banks placed in the front and rear of the vehicle to maintain a balanced center of gravity. After assembly, voltage measurements showed that the maximum voltage achieved was 153.6V. Testing was conducted after the batteries were installed in the vehicle, which showed that the vehicle could be operated for 19 hours with an average current of 11.5A. From the test results, the battery capacity was calculated to be approximately 218.5Ah. The test results indicate that the battery performance does not fully match the theoretical calculations, due to factors such as battery characteristics and energy losses in the vehicle system.

Abstract

Building access systems have enhanced security but often rely on costly foreign products. This research aims to develop an employee attendance application that integrates facial recognition using the Siamese network method with RFID for dual authentification. Designed to improve security and efficiency, the application allows for real-time monitoring and data collection of employee access without requiring additional hardware when expanding the system. The study designs an access system based on RFID and facial recognition with the Siamese network method. The system includes RFID nodes, a base station, a WiFi access point, a web dashboard, and a database. The RFID nodes read UID data, which is sent to the base station for verification. The system uses the ESP32 microcontroller and is integrated with a Next.js web server to monitor and manage employee attendance data. The test results indicate that the RFID can read RFID cards within a reading range of approximately 0 to 10 cm. The ESP-NOW communication can transfer data within a time range of 0 to 341 ms and a distance range of 50 to 400 cm between microcontrollers without using an external antenna. The HTTP communication protocol has a data transfer speed of approximately 700 ms with an internet download/upload speed of 10.5/5.41 Mbps. Facial recognition using the Siamese network model achieved an average threshold of 0.736 out of 0.5 under various lighting conditions and distances.

Abstract

In the oil and gas processing industry, a reliable control system is essential to ensure energy efficiency and operational safety. One of the critical elements is the control of the air-to-fuel ratio in the combustion process of the furnace. This study aims to design and implement a furnace control system using a ratio control strategy based on the Yokogawa Distributed Control System (DCS) Centum VP R5.04.20. The system is designed to precisely regulate the mass flow rates of air and fuel to achieve optimal combustion efficiency and minimize emissions. Control is executed via PID configuration within the DCS, with parameter tuning optimized to maintain process stability. The implementation results indicate that the system operates under stable conditions with a ratio gain of 2.5, and PID parameters for FIC102 (P=100, I=10, D=0) and PIC201 (P=180, I=60, D=0). The system successfully improves control response and furnace operational efficiency, while also providing a foundation for the future adoption of more advanced automation systems.

Abstract

The increasing number of vehicles in urban areas has led to serious parking space issues, particularly in shopping centers, office complexes, and university campuses. The difficulty in locating vacant parking spots contributes to traffic congestion, fuel waste, and higher exhaust emissions. This study develops a parking lot monitoring system based on the Internet of Things (IoT), which detects vehicle presence in each parking slot in real time using sensors. The availability of parking spaces is displayed digitally, allowing drivers to find vacant spots without circling around. This system also enhances parking management efficiency by enabling centralized and automated monitoring of parking conditions. Implementation results show that the system effectively improves space utilization and significantly reduces the time required to find a parking spot.

Abstract

The crucial challenge in Condition Monitoring (CM) and Predictive Maintenance of high-voltage (HV) equipment is achieving reliable detection and precise localization of the Partial Discharge (PD) source. PD is a vital indicator of insulation degradation. This challenge is compounded by the complex and non-homogeneous operational environment, where internal structures like transformer windings and cores significantly distort and attenuate signals, while simultaneously creating the phenomenon of acoustic multipath. This critical analysis examines the convergence of advancements in sensor technology, calibration techniques, and sophisticated algorithms in the effort to overcome these PD localization challenges. The review highlights significant progress across various sensor types, including Acoustic Emission (AE) sensors optimized with the KLM Model to enhance sensitivity, UHF sensors that offer superior noise immunity, and innovative pressure-balanced fiber-optic acoustic sensors specifically designed for detecting dual PDs. To achieve higher localization accuracy, signal processing techniques have evolved beyond the basic Time Difference of Arrival (TDOA) method. Currently, robust algorithms are applied, such as Generalized Cross-Correlation with Phase Transformation (GCC-PHAT), which effectively suppresses noise and reflections, and Particle-Swarm-Optimization Route-Searching (PSORS) to intelligently model the acoustic signal propagation paths around internal obstructing structures. Alternative approaches also include online localization based on electrical Transfer Function analysis. The integration of highly sensitive sensor technology with intelligent pathfinding algorithms is key to realizing accurate multi-method diagnosis, thereby supporting more reliable and efficient operation of HV equipment

Abstract

As a region with rapid urbanization and residential development, Cibitung District faces challenges in achieving equitable 4G network quality. Optimization of 4G coverage has become an essential need. Therefore, this study focuses on optimizing the 4G LTE network in Cibitung District using the coverage planning method through link budget calculations to obtain the Maximum Allowable Path Loss (MAPL). Two propagation models, Okumura-Hata and Cost-231, were then used to estimate the coverage area per cell and the required number of sites. The optimization simulation was conducted using Atoll software to analyze signal coverage distribution based on the Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) parameter. This method was chosen to estimate coverage capable of reducing blank spots and reaching the entire study area. The results show that using the Okumura-Hata model requires 16 BTS sites, while the Cost-231 model requires 21 BTS sites to cover the entire region. Based on RSRP, good-quality coverage (RSRP ≥ -100 dBm) using the Okumura-Hata model reaches 35.120 km² or 97.95%, while the Cost-231 model only covers 14.921 km² or 41.5% of the total area. This proves that appropriate propagation model selection and coverage optimization strongly influence 4G network implementation in urban areas.
