Various standard in digital television broadcasting system has been developed in the world, one of which is the Digital Terrestrial Multimedia Broadcasting, or abbreviated as DTMB that currently used by China and Hong Kong. DTMB has several standard configurations and parameters. In this research, DTMB system was designed and the results was validated through simulation using computer program, named Simulink. The parameters used in this research is the FEC with code rate of 0.4, 4QAM modulation, interleaver mode 1 and using a single carrier transmission mode. Stream format used in the simulation was MPEG2-TS as the input for DTMB system. Parameters selection was based on low implementation complexity, but with good results. Two important things in DTMB system is the existence of FEC and TDS-OFDM. FEC consists of cascaded BCH as the outer encoder/decoder (codec) and LDPC as the inner codec. The reason of using TDS-OFDM because it provides better picture quality when the receiver is in motion. The test results have shown that for static video, DTMB was able to receive video with identical quality compared to the original video, when the value of SNR=11dB and SNR=12dB for dynamic video. It is shown that after going through the process from LDPC to BCH, the number of bit errors decreased while the value of SNR increased.

This paper is under in-depth investigation due to suspicion of possible plagiarism on a high similarity indexIn this article, A compact size band pass filter based on octagonal resonators is presented to give sharp response at desired frequency bands along with very low insertion loss. The proposed filter structure is composed of octagonal microstrip resonators, backed by Quasi-Yagi slots ‘Quasi-Yagi Defected Ground Structure’ (Quasi-Yagi-DGS). By controlling the electrical coupling between the octagonal–strip and the Quasi-Yagi-DGS, the bandpass filter’s stopband is optimized for better rejection. The proposed BPF has low insertion loss and compact size because of the slow-wave effect. Meanwhile, sharp rejection bands induced by the presence of two transmission zeros. The simulated center frequency and passband insertion loss are 2.4 GHz and 0.6 dB, respectively.

Synchronous mobile robots formation control is one of the most challenging and interesting fields in robotics. The mobile robots communicate with each other through wireless communication to perform similar movement. This study analyzed two mobile robots that can perform synchronous movement along a shaped path. A square shape is set as a path for the mobile robot movements. The front robot being the leading robot transmits the instruction of its movement to the robot behind it, acting as the following robot through a wireless communication. The instruction sent by the leading robot is received by the following robot through a program embedded in the leading robot microcontroller which then drives the following robot to move and imitates the movement of the leading. The algorithm for the movement is tested on the hardware and the results of the experiment are included to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.

This research developed a small RLSA antenna that mimics the specification of a Wi-Fi antenna that is available in markets, which is a Back Fires 17 dBi LAN antenna. This research used the size of the back fires antenna as the size for the RLSA antenna. Base on this size, we designed and simulated 71 RLSA antenna models. Among them, we chose a best model and fabricated its prototype. We measured the prototype and found that the measurement result fits the simulation result, thus verifying the correctness of the antenna model. Furthermore, we analysed that with the same size, our RLSA antenna has better performance compared to the back fires antenna, in term of gain (0,53 dB higher), and in term of bandwidth (1075 MHz wider). We also found that our RLSA antenna is lighter and thinner compared to the back fires antenna. We also test the RLSA antenna in real condition for indoor and outdoor communication link. The test showed that the RLSA antenna can performs properly.

Soil spectroscopy measurement is widely used to determine the macronutrients content in the soil. Spectrometer is costly equipment and commonly used to determine the transmittance, absorbance or reflectance level of various liquids and opaque solids by measuring the intensity of light as a light source passes through a sample chemical substance. This paper is reported on a low cost experimental assessment of soil macronutrient for soil spectroscopy utilizing Raspberry Pi (RPI) module in visible and near-infrared (NIR) wavelength. The sensitivity measurements are mainly due to the concentration level and the intensity of light emitting diode (LED) light source. The work is focusing on the absorbance spectroscopy particularly on linear relationship to determine the Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P) and Potassium (K) content level in soil using colour-developing reagent. The development of low cost and portable RPI based spectrophotometer has created new possibilities to measure the concentration level of the existed soil macronutrient within visible and infrared light wavelength of light sources. The absorbance of light was computed based on Beer-Lambert Law. The low cost RPI based spectrometer costs 80% less than the spectrometer available in the market and is capable of recording the absorbance measurements up to 5 samples. The performance of this prototype shows that it is possible to build the spectrometer using open-source software and hardware by considering the limiting factors such as light transfer to the sample, spectral filtering and the sensitivity due to the signal-to-noise ratio.

Due to high nonlinearity with features of large time constants, delays, and interaction among variables, control of the wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) is a very challenging task. Modern control strategies such as model predictive controllers or artificial neural networks can be used to deal with the non-linearity. Another characteristic of this system should be considered is that it works repetitively. Iterative learning control (ILC) is a potential candidate for such a demanding task. This paper proposes a method using ILC for WWTPs to achieve new results. By exploiting data from the previous iterations, the learning control algorithm can improve gradually tracking control performance for the next runs, and hence outperforms conventional control approaches such as feedback controller and model predictive control (MPC). The benchmark simulation model No.1-BSM1 has been used as a standard for performance assessment and evaluation of the control strategy. Control of the dissolved oxygen in the aerated reactors has been performed using the PD-type ILC algorithms. The obtained results show the advantages of ILC over a classical PI control concerning the control quality indexes, IEA and ISE, of the system. Besides, the conventional feedback regulator is designed in a combination with the iterative learning control to deal with uncertainty. Simulation results demonstrate the potential benefits of the proposed method.

In low-power VLSI design applications non-linearity and harmonics are a major dominant factor which affects the performance of the ADC. To avoid this, the new architecture of voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) was required to solve the non-linearity issues and harmonic distortion. In this work, a 12-bit, 200MS/s low power delta-sigma analog to digital converter (ADC) VCO based quantizer was designed using switched capacitor technique. The proposed technique uses frequency to current conversion technique as a linearization method to reduce the non-linearity issue. Simulation result show that the proposed 12-bit delta-sigma ADC consumes the power of 2.68 mW and a total area of 0.09 mm² in 90 nm CMOS process.

This paper presented the performance of faded channel estimation method on orthogonal frequency division multiplexing-multiple input multiple outputs (OFDM-MIMO) i.e. least squares (LS) and minimum mean squared error (MMSE). Channel impuls response (CIR) was required to overcome the intersymbol interference (ISI). Channel impuls response information was obtained from channel estimation processing. Iterance simulation used monte-carlo technique to determine the performance of bit error rate (BER) and mean squared error (MSE). Simulation results show that the mean squared error performance on MIMO system was better than the SISO system. On MMSE channel estimation, the MIMO 2Tx-2Rx system provided ± 2 dB improvement that compared to SISO system at value of MSE 10-2.Furthermore,MIMO 3Tx-2Rx produce improvement about 1.5 dB, MIMO 4Tx-2Rx improve about 3.5 dB at BER 10-4,respectively.The MIMO 2Tx-2Rx system, MMSE channel estimation produced better performance ± 1 dB than LS channel estimation with sufficient SNR value for MSE 10-2 .Pilot arrangement, the simulation results show that the block type-pilot arrangement produced better performance than the comb type-pilot arrangement at fast fading channel. Block type-pilot arrangement system produced better ± 10 dB than the comb type-pilot arrangement with MMSE method at value of BER 2 10-2.

Due to the low biodegradability level of mineral oil and its susceptibility to the fire, palm oil was proposed as alternative insulating liquid. This paper discusses partial discharge (PD) in palm oil under sinusoidal voltages and the comparison with mineral oil. PD was generated using a needle-plane electrode configuration which is enable enhancing electric field at the needle tip. PD pulses were detected using RC detector and they were measured using a Computer-based partial discharge measurement system. The results showed that PD activities in both oils are similar. The PD was initiated at the negative polarity of applied voltage. The discharges took place in both polarity’s of applied voltage with PD number was higher at negative one. Several discharges phenomena showed the presence of space charge which changed electric field and governed PD activities besides the main field introduced by voltage application.

The computation load of traditional navigation data estimation algorithms for weak GNSS signal tracking increases exponentially with respect to the number of data bits needed to be estimated. To solve this problem, by adopting the dynamic programming philosophy, a navigation data bits estimation algorithm is proposed. The proposed algorithm uses the partial sum of correlation values as data bit combination searching branches. It can predict and exclude searching branches of data bit combination which have small coherent accumulated energy as soon as possible by angle quantification, thus reducing its computation load to be linearly related to the number of data bits needed to be estimated. Simulation results show that for signal of 500bps navigation data rate, the carrier track loop with a frequency discriminator implementing 0.12s coherent accumulation by navigation data estimation improves the tracking sensitivity up to 7 dB compared with traditional frequency discriminator under the same track accuracy constraint.
