2020-02-01 , Al-bawri S.S. , Goh H.H. , Islam M.S. , Wong H.Y. , Jamlos M.F. , Narbudowicz A. , Muzammil Jusoh , Thennarasan Sabapathy , Khan, Rizwan D. , Islam M.T.

A printed compact monopole antenna based on a single negative (SNG) metamaterial is proposed for ultra-wideband (UWB) applications. A low-profile, key-shaped structure forms the radiating monopole and is loaded with metamaterial unit cells with negative permittivity and more than 1.5 GHz bandwidth of near-zero refractive index (NZRI) property. The antenna offers a wide bandwidth from 3.08 to 14.1 GHz and an average gain of 4.54 dBi, with a peak gain of 6.12 dBi; this is in contrast to the poor performance when metamaterial is not used. Moreover, the maximum obtained radiation efficiency is 97%. A reasonable agreement between simulation and experiments is realized, demonstrating that the proposed antenna can operate over a wide bandwidth with symmetric split-ring resonator (SSRR) metamaterial structures and compact size of 14.5 × 22 mm2 (0.148 λ0 × 0.226 λ0) with respect to the lowest operating frequency.

2020-01-02 , Al-Bawri S.S. , Islam M.S. , Wong H.Y. , Jamlos M.F. , Narbudowicz A. , Muzammil Jusoh , Thennarasan Sabapathy , Islam M.T.

A multiband coplanar waveguide (CPW)-fed antenna loaded with metamaterial unit cell for GSM900, WLAN, LTE-A, and 5G Wi-Fi applications is presented in this paper. The proposed metamaterial structure is a combination of various symmetric split-ring resonators (SSRR) and its characteristics were investigated for two major axes directions at (x and y-axis) wave propagation through the material. For x-axis wave propagation, it indicates a wide range of negative refractive index in the frequency span of 2–8.5 GHz. For y-axis wave propagation, it shows more than 2 GHz bandwidth of near-zero refractive index (NZRI) property. Two categories of the proposed metamaterial plane were applied to enhance the bandwidth and gain. The measured reflection coefficient (S11) demonstrated significant bandwidths increase at the upper bands by 4.92–6.49 GHz and 3.251–4.324 GHz, considered as a rise of 71.4% and 168%, respectively, against the proposed antenna without using metamaterial. Besides being high bandwidth achieving, the proposed antenna radiates bi-directionally with 95% as the maximum radiation efficiency. Moreover, the maximum measured gain reaches 6.74 dBi by a 92.57% improvement compared with the antenna without using metamaterial. The simulation and measurement results of the proposed antenna show good agreement.

Investigation on the Effect of Deflected Ground Structure in Multi-Direction Steerable Antenna for WSN

2020-03-20 , Zainudin N.A.F.M. , Osman M.N. , Thennarasan Sabapathy , Muzammil Jusoh

In this paper, a multi-direction steerable radiation pattern antenna is designed and investigated, which operates at 2.45 GHz frequency. The radiation pattern reconfigurable is achieved by locating four parasitic elements surrounding the driving element at the centre. The artificial switches, are currently used to replace the ideal diode for proof of the concept, are inserted at the specific position on the parasitic element. By controlling the state ON/OFF of the switches, the parasitic is grounded via shorting pin, thus realizing the beam steering to be directed into four direction angles; right, left, upwards and downwards. In this research, an investigation on the effect of deflected ground plane on the steering angles has been carried out. With minimum numbers of switches deployed, the proposed antenna is a potential candidate to serve as a transmitting element in WSN applications.

Beam Steering Monopole Antenna for Low Power Wireless Communication in WSN

2020-03-20 , Mahdir N.A.F. , Osman M.N. , Thennarasan Sabapathy , Muzammil Jusoh , Zainudin N.A.F.M.

Antenna for wireless sensor networks (WSN) application need to satisfy a number of additional properties like antenna efficiency. Since there are many WSN nodes, the use of low cost and high efficient antenna is highly important. Therefore, in this paper, a beam steering antenna resonate at 2.4 GHz with monopole element by using parasitic array technique is proposed. The parasitic array element is introduced to achieve a better gain and acts as a reflector to steer the beam to the desired degree of angles. The structure of the proposed design consists of monopole antenna as the radiating element, and to parasitic patches with the same dimension of monopole are placed next to the radiating patch. Two switches (PIN diode) are used and embedded at the back of the structure. By activating and deactivating of the switches (ON or OFF), the parasitic is either grounded or disconnected from ground. Consequently, depending on the switches configuration, the beam pattern can be steered two direction angles which 25 left or right. The simulated and measured results are presented to demonstrate the performance of the proposed antenna.

This paper presents the design and analysis of a multilayer cantilever to harvest vibration energy by generating acoustic signal. To do so, a five layer configuration is used to design the cantilever. Lead Zirconate Titanate (PZT-8), Stainless Steel 405 Annealed, Aluminum and Zinc Oxide are used to develop the layers. Water is used as the medium to analyze the sound propagation pattern. Sound Pressure Level, displacements and electric potential of the cantilever are analyzed along with other parameters. From the results, it is evident that, the proposed cantilever can propagate sound within a range of 78.7 dB to 73.4 dB in a 50 mm spherical distance.

This paper introduces a decagonal C-shaped complementary splitring resonator (CSRR) textile-based metamaterial (MTM). The overall size of the proposed sub-wavelength MTM unit cell is 0.28λ0 ×0.255λ0 at 3 GHz. Its stopband behaviour was first studied prior analysing the negative index properties of the proposed MTM. It is worth noting that in this work a unique way the experiments were completed. For both simulations andmeasurements, the proposed MTM exhibited negative-permittivity and negative-refractive index characteristics with an average bandwidth of more than 3 GHz (considering 1.7 to 8.2 GHz as the measurements were carried out within this range). In simulations, the MTM exhibited negative-permittivity properties within the range of 1.7 to 7.52 GHz and 7.96 to 8.2 GHz; and negative-refractive index from 1.7 to 2.23 GHz and 2.33 to 5.09 GHz and 5.63 to 7.45 GHz. When measured from 1.7 to 8.2 GHz, negative-permittivity and negative-refractive index characteristics are exhibited throughout an average bandwidth of more than 3 GHz. Similarly, the transmission coefficient attained in simulations and measurements indicated about 3 GHz of bandwidth, from 1.7 to 3.88 GHz and from 6.68 to 7.4 GHz. The satisfactory agreement between simulations and experiments indicates the potential of the proposed MTM for microwave applications.

This paper presents the findings of a steerable higher order mode (TEy 1δ3) dielectric resonator antenna with parasitic elements. The beam steering was successfully achieved by switching the termination capacitor on the parasitic element. In this light, all of the dielectric resonator antennas (DRAs) have the same dielectric permittivity similar to that of ten and excited by a 50 microstrip with a narrow aperture. The effect of the mutual coupling on the radiation pattern and the reflection coefficient, as well as the array factor, was investigated clearly using MATLAB version 2014b and ANSYS HFSS version 16. As the result, the antenna beam of the proposed DRA array managed to steer from −32◦ to +32◦ at 15 GHz. furthermore, the measured antenna array showed the maximum gain of 9.25 dBi and the reflection coefficients which are less than −10 dB with the bandwidth more than 1.3 GHz, which is viewed as desirable for device-to-device communication in 5G Internet of Things applications.

A brief review of the EMF interaction: Metal implantation and biological tissues

2017-01-01 , Mohd Hafizuddin Mat , Muzammil Jusoh , Hasliza A Rahim @ Samsuddin , Mohd Irwan Yusoff

In analyzing the near field for a device, such as a mobile phone used in close proximity to tissues, it is difficult to predict the electromagnetic field (EMF) and other characteristics, since certain parts of the mobile phone scatter and reflect the EMF. Moreover, the absorption of EMF in the lossy tissues mitigates as the radio frequency (RF) energy is absorbed by the tissue. In order to minimize the heating effect on human tissue caused by this absorption of RF energy by the human body, all communications equipment (CE) must comply with the guidelines that established the maximum power output of devices. Though RF emissions from CE are carefully measured, the probability exists that the RF characteristics are reformed somewhat when tissue that illuminated by RF energy embedded with implant, thereby increasing the specific absorption rate (SAR). The SAR is the fundamental metric for specifying RF absorption by tissues and it can be calculated at any location in the tissue.

This paper proposes a breast cancer detection module using Artificial Neural Network for small data set. The developed system consists of hardware and software. Hardware included UWB transceiver and a pair of home-made directional sensor/antenna. The software included a Graphical User Interface (GUI) and k-fold based feed-forward back propagation Neural Network module to detect the tumor existence, size and location along with soft interface between software and hardware. Forward scattering technique is used by placing two sensors diagonally opposite sides of a breast phantom. UWB pulses are transmitted from one side of phantom and received from other side, controlled by the software interface in PC environment. Firstly feed forward backpropagation neural network (FFBNN) is developed. Then, k-fold is combined with developed FFBNN for testing purpose. Four data sets are created where contains 125, 95, 65 and 30 data samples in 1st,2nd,3rd and 4th data set respectively. Collected received signals were then fed into the NN module for training, testing and validation. The process is done for all data sets separately. The system exhibits detection efficiency of tumor existence, location (x, y, z), and size were approximately 87.72%, 87.24%, 83.93% and 80.51% for 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th data set respectively. The proposed module is very practical with low-cost and user friendly. The developed breast cancer detection module can be used for large data samples as well as for minimum data samples.
