    Over the last few years, free space optical communication (FSO) has emerged as a viable alternative to radio frequency communication. It provides a promising high-speed point-to-point communication solution. However, atmospheric absorption, scattering and turbulence degrade wireless optical communication significantly, lowering device efficiency. The attenuation of signals due to the above atmospheric reasons is another major factor that affects device efficiency. The atmospheric turbulence conditions are observed implemented into different models of FSO systems, such as Single Input Single Output (SISO), Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO), Wavelength Division Multiplexing MIMO (WDM-MIMO) and proposed model Double Multiple Input Multiple Output (DMIMO) using the Gamma-Gamma model for a variety of reasons. The OptiSystem 7.0 software was used to run simulations to study how various weather conditions (clear, haze and fog) affected the performance of the channel. Simulation results show that implementing Double Multiple Input Multiple Output (DMIMO) techniques for FSO systems provides high quality factor for various ranges while still achieving accurate transmitted data at the receiver side. In the presence of atmospheric turbulence conditions such as clear air, haze and fog, performance improvements signal power levels, quality factor and link distance range have been demonstrated.

    Nutrient composition in soil analysis is investigated by using nitrogen (N) in form of nitrate (NO3-) as a representative factor correlated with NIR spectroscopy spectral absorbance. NIR spectroscopy method of sampling has been tested to overcome time consuming, complex chemical analysis procedure and invasive sampling method in order to identify nitrate content in soil samples. Spectral absorbance data from range 950 nm to 1650 nm correlated with nitrate reading then tested through few pre-processing techniques. Five techniques have been listed as top performer, which are Multiplicative Scatter Correction using Common Offset (MSCCO), Multiplicative Scatter Correction (MSC), Range Normalization (RN), Mean Normalization (MN) and Reduced (R) technique. Data calibration and prediction of both data is evaluated using Partial Least Square Regression (PLSR) model. In the final analysis, R technique has achieved as top performer pre-processing technique for both calibration and prediction results, with the coefficient of determination (R2) values of 0.9991 and root mean square error (RMSE) values of 0.0886 for prediction. Overall, the correlation of NIRS absorbance data and nitrate can be obtained using PLSR model with R pre-processing technique. Henceforth, we can conclude that the NIRS method of sampling can be used to identify nitrate content in soil analysis by using time saving, non-invasive and less laborious method of sampling.

    Prediction rain attenuation effect on free space optical communication Kuching/Samarahan Region
    Rain attenuation is significantly affecting the FSO performance of a free-space optical communication system. Kuching/Samarahan region is situated in Malaysia state which is under tropical climate zone. The rain distribution is recorded high due to having rain season year-round. It worst when turn to monsoon season where the precipitation rate is expected high and dense. It is crucial to design the effect FSO system to ensure good quality transmission beam signal. This paper is focus on Kuching/Samarahan zone as the preliminary result to investigate the rain pattern and effect over FSO propagation. The investigation it focuses on that region is due to development that area to implement fully digital economy which need supported by high speed and capacity data that can be produced by optical technology. Therefore, FSO technology can perform this task. The rain data is collected from Malaysia Meteorology Department (Met Malaysia) which for three years 2017, 1018 and 2019. The performance will measure the effect of scattering coefficient, rain attenuation and geometrical loss. It is expected heavy rain will contribute the great impact over FSO link.

    This paper is motivated by searching for the perfect pattern for the spectroscopy spectra using artificial neural networks (ANN) using python programming coding. The pattern from the spectroscopy is based on the absorption and emission of light and other radiation by materials in relation to the wavelength dependence of these processes. Spectral equipment such as spectrometers, spectral analysers, spectrographs, or spectrophotometers is utilised to determine spectrum values. The problem in this spectroscopy is to identify the sample or analyte, which can be solved by a prediction model for spectroscopy using Python. These problems occur when finding the best algorithm of pre-processing techniques that can predict any model accurately into an understandable format for prediction models. Various types of pre-processing techniques have been used, such as Multiplicative Scatter Correction (MSC), Inverse MSC, Extended MSC (EMSC), Extended Inverse MSC, de-trending, Standard Normal Variate (SNV) and normalisation in order to get a better r2 value. In this project, we find the r2 and the root mean square error (RMSE) to evaluate the prediction values and the actual values. First, choosing pre-processing techniques and then finding the best statistical method for constructing predictive models that produce high accuracy. We used ANN in this project as a prediction model. Based on the results, we managed to achieve our objective, which is that the prediction model has more than 90% of accuracy. Furthermore, the results show that our prediction model has 1.0 accuracy at 100 Epoch with a 0.3 learning rate. Finally, we can conclude that our prediction model can be used to predict the spectroscopy-based data format.

    In this research, the radial Schr¨odinger equation is solved analytically using the Nikiforov-Uvarov method with the Cornell potential. The energy spectrum and the corresponding wave function are obtained in close form. The effect of Topological Defect on the thermal properties and mass spectra of heavy mesons such as charmonium and bottomonium are studied with the obtained energy spectrum. It is found that the presence of the Topological Defect increases the mass spectra and moves the values close to the experimental data. Our results agreed with the experimental data and are seen to be improved when compared with other works.

    The nonrelativistic treatment of the Varshni–Shukla potential (V–SP) in the presence of magnetic and Aharanov–Bohm fields is carried out using the asymptotic iteration method (AIM). The energy equation and wave function are derived analytically. The energy levels are summed to obtain the partition function, which is employed to derive the expressions for the thermomagnetic properties of the V–SP. These properties are analyzed extensively using graphical representations. It is observed that in the various settings of the analysis, the system shows a diamagnetic characteristic, and the specific heat capacity behavior agrees with the recognized Dulong–Petit law, although some slight anomaly is observed. This irregular behavior could be attributed to a Schottky anomaly. Our findings will be valuable in a variety of fields of physics, including chemical, molecular and condensed matter physics, where our derived models could be applied to study other diatomic molecules and quantum dots, respectively.
