    RFID is not a new technology. It has been applied in various industries such as for wearable applications. Common RFID tags especially for those that have been designed and are available are not independent of the incident receiver angle. Numerous wearable antennas on the market are only designed for a certain received angle. For example, a wearable RFID antenna is used in medical as a pulse reading detector. If the patient makes any movement, the patient's pulse reading is no longer accurate or there may be no pulse reading. Hence, the purpose of this project is to design and RFID antennas using Frequency Selective Surface, FSS for wearable applications that are independent towards the incident angle and small in size. In this project, several antennas design with Frequency Selective Surface (FSS) is proposed. The design for this antenna is round, square, and hexagonal. This antenna has an operating frequency from 2.4 GHz to 5.8GHz, bandwidth efficiency> 50%, dielectric constant 1.30, independent incident angle up to 60 degrees, and has a high gain of around 2 to 3dB.

    Evaluating Tree-based Ensemble Strategies for Imbalanced Network Attack Classification
    With the continual evolution of cybersecurity threats, the development of effective intrusion detection systems is increasingly crucial and challenging. This study tackles these challenges by exploring imbalanced multiclass classification, a common situation in network intrusion datasets mirroring realworld scenarios. The paper aims to empirically assess the performance of diverse classification algorithms in managing imbalanced class distributions. Experiments were conducted using the UNSW-NB15 network intrusion detection benchmark dataset, comprising ten highly imbalanced classes. The evaluation includes basic, traditional algorithms like the Decision Tree, KNearest Neighbor, and Gaussian Naive Bayes, as well as advanced ensemble methods such as Gradient Boosted Decision Trees (GraBoost) and AdaBoost. Our findings reveal that the Decision Tree surpassed the Multi-Layer Perceptron, K-Nearest Neighbor, and Naive Bayes in terms of overall F1-score. Furthermore, thorough evaluations of nine tree-based ensemble algorithms were performed, showcasing their varying efficacy. Bagging, Random Forest, ExtraTrees, and XGBoost achieved the highest F1-scores. However, in individual class analysis, XGBoost demonstrated exceptional performance relative to the other algorithms. This is confirmed by achieving the highest F1-scores in eight out of the ten classes within the dataset. These results establish XGBoost as a predominant method for handling multiclass imbalance classification with Bagging being the closest feasible alternative, as Bagging gains an almost similar accuracy and F1-score as XGBoost.

    The paper presents the design and investigation of a wearable textile antenna (receiver) and transmitter antenna operating in the wireless body area network (WBAN) of 26 GHz band for 5G mobile networks. The wearable antenna with an overall size of 30 mm x 40 mm x 1.26 mm achieves good impedance matching, high gain, and directive radiation pattern. Both antennas were designed using CST Microwave Studio to validate the simulation results. A rectangular radiating patch comprises a Shieldit electrotextile situated on one side of a non-conductive substrate panel with the ground plane. The bed sheet cotton fabric is used as the non-conductive substrate due to its widespread use in daily clothing with a dielectric constant is 3.2 and the loss tangent is 0.0027. In addition, the wearable antenna successfully achieved the high gain and efficiency of 12 dB and 90.83% respectively. Moreover, the antenna operating at 26 GHz with -40.48 dB return loss, which is less than the -10 dB in requirement. The simulated results show that this proposed wearable antenna is best suited for wireless body area network applications. Hence, the wearable antenna is simple, compact and easy to fabricate.

    RFID technology is evolving as one of the most popular technologies in this era of technology, fast gaining attention due to high demand from users and rapidly garnering interest in scientific and commercial areas. The frequency used will be determined by the RFID application, and the power rate will change as the frequency increases. Without a straight line of sight, the RFID tag antenna can identify distinct objects. For wearable applications, several RFID tag antennas are too big to match the chip impedance. In order to overcome that problem, a small tag RFID tag antenna for UHF is designed which aimed to be operated from 865 to 867 MHz for assembling production. Impedance matching is used to transforms the impedance of the radiating antenna, to match the chip impedance. To design and simulate the designed antenna, CST Microwave Studio software has been used in this project to get the desired result which is the return loss and gain. The design for this antenna is very simple to ease the fabrication process. Overall, the construction comprises a spiral-shaped loop RFID tag antenna printed on Roger substrate RO4350 with a height of 0.8 mm and a dielectric constant of 3.3. The simulation result of the reflection coefficient of the antenna is 866 MHz at the operating frequency.

    Relatively more smartphones developed nowadays come with GPS location software. GPS information is fetched from the satellites and can be retrieved from Bluetooth, wi-fi, cell-id, and a combination of those tools. GPS-based mobile apps have the features of fetching the location of a device using geo-coordinates and some measurement which is an added value in developing various software. Due to the pandemic disease of Covid-19, the world is now aiming for global digitalization. Countries such as Singapore, Chine, and even Malaysia developed applications that can help the citizen in obeying the SOP and receiving current and reliable information regarding the Covid-19 issue. Thus, a real-time monitoring application for PUS s beneficial to break the chain and contain the disease. This research has been done to develop a localization application for Person Under Surveillance using GPS mobile apps. The application implemented the Firebase Authentication in the sign-up and sign-in process and is developed using Android Studio IDE 4.1 integrated with cloud-hosted database Firebase Realtime Database. Android version 6.0 is used which is API level 23. Application is developed to have the functionalities of user registration, fetching coordinates, setting a boundary, and in-app alert. The application was installed and tested on the Pixel 3 API 23 emulator.

    Wireless connectivity is a critical enabler for many IoT applications. Antennas are often required to be installed inside the device cover, which usually occurs in small sizes with optimal performance. On the other hand, a suitable antenna should also have high efficiency, gain and adequate bandwidth covering the desired frequency range. Here, we proposed new type of Frequency Selective Surface (FSS) with miniaturized resonator element to enhance the gain of an CPW antenna. Furthermore, the miniaturization of the Frequency Selective Surface unit cell is attained by coupling the two meandered wire resonators. The wire resonator is separated by thin and single substrate layer. The structure of the FSS is shown to have a FSS unit cell dimension that is miniaturized to 0.057λ. The CPW antenna size is only 28.8mm × 46.5mm operating at 2.45 GHz frequency. With the additional of the FSS, the antenna's gain reaches up from 1.8 dBi to 2.6 dBi with omnidirectional radiation pattern.
