    Split Ring Resonator of Zero Index metamaterial element has been proposed. The Split Ring Resonator consists of four loops; a more modest loop inside a bigger one, with openings, consolidated into each loop at the far edges, and an expansion of the rectangular loop to realize the gap (split) which permits control of the capacitance. The split ring is designed and simulated using sophisticated simulation software to have accurate simulation results. Two waveguide ports of terminals have been used within the assigned unit cell boundary for the simulated purpose. A parametric study has taken place for the width and length of the split ring resonator to find the optimized design to have zero index at the desired frequency of 2.7 GHz. The optimized dimensions of the split ring resonator are 7.29 mm and 6.0 mm for width and length respectively. The split ring resonator successfully recorded zero index (phase) at the desired frequency of 2.7 GHz for low-frequency applications specifically for GHz ranges.

    The drone mapping has a huge potential for numerous sectors including construction, agriculture, mining, infrastructure inspection and real estate. Drones are used as assisting tools in civil applications for large-scale aerial mapping of buildings, which is a difficult task for surveyors to do because of the unreachable access area, time consuming, and expensive due to limited resources and equipment. To address this issue, this paper introduces UAV-based mapping. Furthermore, when flying from a different flight plan, the UAV will capture and collect visual images. Then, the image from drone was process in Agisoft Metashape software to generate a 3D model of building. This process will go through several steps to analyze which method for capturing images can produce high-quality 3D mapping. The research results of this project are to determine which photogrammetry technique can generate a high quality of 3D mapping with accurate and fast.

    Unit cell is a meta-atom structured to form a metamaterial. The size of the unit cell is related to the frequency of waves. The structure size is smaller than the wavelength of the incident waves. Since light frequency used is Terahertz, the size of unit cell is in nanometer. Unit cell geometrical shape is design using copper and it placed on the Rogers substrate. It designed based on the desired of the researcher. There is no specific design assigned to specific application. The objective in this paper is to exhibit the negative refractive index or negative index material that is capable to bend the light wave. H Shape design has been used widely as a design to manipulate the electromagnetic waves but none of them used for higher frequency such as light frequency. The negative value of material properties obtained from the simulation of the metamaterial at three different part which are at phase=0, real value and imaginary value. CST Microwave Studio used as a simulation software. The results show all the negative value of material properties obtained at different frequency range. However, the negative value of material properties at phase=0 and imaginary part is obtained at same frequency range. While for real part, the negative value for all material properties occurred at different frequency range. This H-Shape design is suitable to manipulate the lights radiation waves.

    Luminosity and contrast variation problems are among the most challenging tasks in the image processing field, significantly improving image quality. Enhancement is implemented by adjusting the dark or bright intensity to improve the quality of the images and increase the segmentation performance. Recently, numerous methods had been proposed to normalise the luminosity and contrast variation. A new approach based on a direct technique using statistical data known as Hybrid Statistical Enhancement (HSE) is presented in this study. The HSE method uses the mean and standard deviation of a local and global neighbourhood and classified the pixel into three groups; the foreground, border, and problematic region (contrast & luminosity). The datasets, namely weld defect images, were utilised to demonstrate the effectiveness of the HSE method. The results from the visual and objective aspects showed that the HSE method could normalise the luminosity and enhance the contrast variation problem effectively. The proposed method was compared to the two (2) populor enhancement methods which is Homomorphic Filter (HF) and Difference of Gaussian (DoG). To prove the HSE effectiveness, a few image quality assessments were presented, and the results were discussed. The HSE method achieved a better result compared to the other methods, which are Signal Noise Ratio (8.920), Standard Deviation (18.588) and Absolute Mean Brightness Error (9.356). In conclusion, implementing the HSE method has produced an effective and efficient result for background correction and quality images improvement.

    The fourth most common form of cancer among women is cervical cancer with 569, 847 new cases and 311, 365 reported deaths worldwide in 2018. Cervical cancer is classified as the third leading cause of cancer among women in Malaysia, with approximately 1, 682 new cervical cases and about 944 deaths occurred in 2018. Cervical cancer can be detected early by cervical cancer screening. Papanicolaou test, also known as Pap smear test is conducted to detect cancer or pre-cancer in the cervix. The disadvantage of this conventional method is that the sample of microscopic images will risk blurring effects, noise, shadow, lighting and artefact problems. The diagnostic microscopic observation performed by a microbiologist is normally time-consuming and may produce inaccurate results even by experienced hands. Thus, correct diagnosis information is essential to assist physicians to analyze the condition of the patients. In this study, an automated segmentation system is proposed to be used as it is more accurate and faster compared to the conventional technique. Using the proposed method in this paper, the image was enhanced by applying a median filter and Partial Contrast Stretching. A segmentation method based on mathematical morphology was performed to segment the nucleus in the Pap smear images. Image Quality Assessment (IQA) which measures the accuracy, sensitivity and specificity were used to prove the effectiveness of the proposed method. The results of the numerical simulation indicate that the proposed method shows a higher percentage of accuracy and specificity with 93.66% and 95.54% respectively compared to Otsu, Niblack and Wolf methods. As a conclusion, the percentage of sensitivity is slightly lower, with 89.20% compared to Otsu and Wolf methods. The results presented here may facilitate improvements in the detection performance in comparison to the existing methods.

    A split-ring resonator (SRR) array metamaterial of zero-index unit cell configuration has been proposed. The SRR is made up of four loops; r1, r2, r3, and r4, which are inductance related, and the gaps (slots) are introduced to the ring to create the capacitance effect. The split ring is designed and simulated using sophisticated simulation software to have accurate simulation results. The SRR is placed between two waveguide terminals on the z-axis, at the top and bottom of the z-axis, respectively. SRR unit cell is configured into two array structures with a size of 110 x 65 mm2 which are the 7 x 4-unit cell and the 10 x 5-unit cell. A parametric study has been carried out for the split ring resonator to find the optimized design to have zero index as well as positive permittivity and permeability at the desired frequency of 2.7 GHz. Both array configurations recorded zero index (phase) at the desired frequency of 2.70 GHz. The positive on the point of close to zero results of the real part of permittivity and permeability lies at frequency 2.70 GHz as well.

    Background: Contrast enhancement plays an important role in the image processing field. Contrast correction has performed an adjustment on the darkness or brightness of the input image and increases the quality of the image. Objective: This paper proposed a novel method based on statistical data from the local mean and local standard deviation. Method: The proposed method modifies the mean and standard deviation of a neighbourhood at each pixel and divides it into three categories: background, foreground, and problematic (contrast & luminosity) region. Experimental results from both visual and objective aspects show that the proposed method can normalize the contrast variation problem effectively compared to Histogram Equalization (HE), Difference of Gaussian (DoG), and Butterworth Homomorphic Filtering (BHF). Seven (7) types of binarization methods were tested on the corrected image and produced a positive and impressive result. Result: Finally, a comparison in terms of Signal Noise Ratio (SNR), Misclassification Error (ME), F-measure, Peak Signal Noise Ratio (PSNR), Misclassification Penalty Metric (MPM), and Accuracy was calculated. Each binarization method shows an incremented result after applying it onto the corrected image compared to the original image. The SNR result of our proposed image is 9.350 higher than the three (3) other methods. The average increment after five (5) types of evaluation are: (Otsu = 41.64%, Local Adaptive = 7.05%, Niblack = 30.28%, Bernsen = 25%, Bradley = 3.54%, Nick = 1.59%, Gradient-Based = 14.6%). Conclusion: The results presented in this paper effectively solve the contrast problem and finally produce better quality images.

    This paper presents the analysis of a closed loop DC-DC boost converter for renewable energy applications such as PV. Most of renewable energy resources produce DC voltage that implied with DC-DC converters to convert their input voltage into a higher or lower voltage level accordingly to their application. However, there are numerous types of devices or applications that used renewable energy. Thus, it means the evolution of using a closed loop boost converter system must occur. The closed-loop system DC-DC boost converter is used to step up the low-level DC voltage to a high level of DC voltage. By varying the input voltage, the performance of boost converter in terms of its output voltage can be obtained and analysed. Several studies were conducted and validated with hardware implementation. All the results are recorded and show that various levels of input voltage can be converted into a fixed value of output voltage by using this converter. To emphasise, the boost converter generated 73.33 V output when an input voltage of 12 V. Whereas this experiment is conducted to analyse the boost converter performance so that can consider if this converter is compatible with the IR dryer system.

    This paper presents a single-phase transformerless inverter based high step-up quadratic boost converter (QBC). By removing the conventional isolation transformer in the single-phase inverter system is grants higher efficiency and reduction in size as well as cost-effectiveness. The proposed topology can generate a standard single-phase power rating of 230 Vrms from a small dc voltage. The capability of the quadratic boost converter to perform a single-stage boost operation is guaranteed before inverted to the alternating sequence of Ac voltages as the constant duty cycle and proper unipolar modulation technique are well implemented. Experimental results are presented to verify the proposed topology capability.

    Cervical cancer is a cell disease in the cervix that develops out of control in the female body. The cervix links the vagina (birth canal) with the upper section of the uterus, which can only be found in the female body. This is the second leading cause of death among women around the world. However, cervical cancer is currently one of the most preventable cancers if early detection is identified. The effect of unidentified cancer may increase the risk of death when the cell disease spreads to other parts of the female anatomy (metastasize). The Papanicolaou test is a cervical cancer screening technique used to identify potentially precancerous and cancerous cells in women's cervix. In this paper, a few popular detection method was applying and experimented on pap smear images. A few image quality assessment (IQA) was obtained in order to determine the best of detection method. The nucleus detection will help pathologists to diagnosis in early stages of cancer. The early detection is very important stage in order to reduce the cancer incidence and mortality. The method that needs to be invented in this study is the detection method. Image detection is the process of partitioning the image into multiple regions. The detection method is object detection and recognition as well as the boundary in images. The segmented Pap Smear image is one of the detection tools with many different methods that generated different results from different issues. The solution was by analysing different existing detection methods in order to compare the dissimilar performance of existing processes. The precision of the system performance needs to be improved in order to invent a new method. As predicted from the result, the innovative construction method must be proposed and compared in order to find accurate, comprehensive measures and proper sampling procedures by the features of the selection method.
