PublicationComparison of rectifier performance using different matching technique( 2017-01-03)This paper describes the design and implementation of the 4-stage Villard multiplier for RF energy harvesting. Each stage is a combination of two HSMS 2850 Schottky diodes and two capacitors for each stage. For ambient energy harvesting, the incident power is extremely small, thus an efficient rectifier is needed. The designed rectifier with the matching circuit is a good candidate since it is able to enhance the rectified output power up to 300% during -40dBm input power compared to the rectifier circuit alone.

PublicationSignal propagation analysis for low data rate wireless sensor network applications in sport grounds and on roads( 2012)
;David L. Ndzi ;M. A. Mohd Arif ;Mohd Noor Ahmad ;Mohd F. RamliThis paper presents results of a study to characterise wire- less point-to-point channel for wireless sensor networks applications in sport hard court arenas, grass fields and on roads. Antenna height and orientation effects on coverage are also studied and results show that for omni-directional patch antenna, node range is reduced by a factor of 2 when the antenna orientation is changed from vertical to horizontal. The maximum range for a wireless node on a hard court sport arena has been determined to be 70m for 0dBm transmission but this reduces to 60m on a road surface and to 50m on a grass field. For horizontal antenna orientation the range on the road is longer than on the sport court which shows that scattered signal components from the rougher road surface combine to extend the communication range. The channels investigated showed that packet error ratio (PER) is dominated by large-scale, rather than small-scale, channel fading with an abrupt transition from low PER to 100% PER. Results also show that large-scale received signal power can be modeled with a 2nd or der log-distance polynomial equation on the sport court and road, but a 1st order model is sufficient for the grassfield. Small-scale signal variations have been found to have a Rice distribution for signal to noise ratio levels greater than 10 dB but the Rice K-factor exhibits significant variations at short distances which can be attributed to the influence of strong ground reflections. -
PublicationMiniature microstrip bandpass filters based on quadruple-mode resonators with less via( 2017-05-03)
;Sugchai TantiviwatThis article aims to design of microstrip resonators in order to reduce size of microstrip bandpass filters in wireless communication systems. Characterized by both theoritical investigation and full-wave simulation, the proposed bandpass filters are designed consist of dual-band bandpass filters and quadruple mode bandpass filters with miniaturized size. The proposed filter is found to have benefits such that the even-mode resonant frequencies can be flexibly controlled while the odd-mode resonant frequency is reserved for the fundamental frequency. Since the structure of resonators is realized using common via holes, the difficulty and complexity of the fabrication process can be shortened. In order to achieve compact size, the total number of resonators is reduced so that the implemented resonators only occupy a small area. -
PublicationDevelopment of branchline coupler using parallel coupled transmission lines( 2017-01-03)
;Rahim N.H.A. ;Rasid R.Siang T.G.This paper investigates the development of branchline coupler using parallel coupled transmission lines on planar microstrip using CST Studio Suite 2010 design tool. This project operates within 4 GHz to 8 GHz frequency band. Two designs are proposed in this project which are basic branch line coupler and branch line coupler with parallel line feeding technique. The main purpose of this study is to improve bandwidth while compare the performance of both designed coupler. The designs are then investigated using CST Microwave Studio simulation tool. The designs are fabricated on microstrip printed circuit board and measured using vector network analyzer. The simulated and experimental results of both developed couplers are compared and analyzed. The overall simulated percentage bandwidth of the proposed coupler is covered from 4 to 8 GHz with percentage bandwidth of 32.32%. -
PublicationParametric studies on effects of defected ground structure (DGS) for dual band bandstop microstrip filter( 2017-11-22)
;Farah Shazuani MahmudA dual-band bandstop microstrip filter is proposed and designed by using microstrip resonator with Defected Ground Structure (DGS). The DGS are placed in the ground plane to obtain high attenuation of the bandstop filter response. The proposed is designed by using R04003C printed circuit board with dimension of 38 mm x 20 mm. Simulated result shows an insertion loss of -12.31 dB, a return loss at -1.75 dB for center frequency at 2.4 GHz and insertion loss of -22.93 dB, a return loss of -0.78 dB for center frequency at 5.8 GHz The results of simulated in different parameters of DGS is analysed and discussed. -
PublicationMiniature triple-mode diplexer with good selectivity( 2017-01-01)
;Sugchai TantiviwatThis paper presents a compact diplexer with high selectivity. The proposed diplexer employs two sets of triple-mode bandpass filters. Using this approach, the pair of even-mode resonant frequencies can be flexibly controlled by adjusting the characteristic impedance or electrical lengths of the two open-circuited stubs while the odd-mode resonant frequency remains at the fundamental resonant frequency. For a demonstration, a diplexer with two passbands centred at 1.50 and 1.70GHz and the transmission zeros are created close to the passband edges which extremely improve the skirt selectivity. As a result, the proposed diplexer occupies an extremely small area, i.e., approximately 0.30λg × 0.35λg. The measured results are in good agreement with the simulated predictions. -
PublicationDesign of Quad-Band Bandpass Filter Using Dual-Mode SLRs and Coupled-Line for DCS/WLAN/WiMAX and 5G Applications( 2022-05-01)
;Tantiviwat S.Soh Ping JackA design of a microstrip quad-band BPF with flexibly controlled bandwidth is presented in this paper. Two dual-mode short-circuited SLRs with a common via-hole are proposed, which are utilized to obtain the first and second passband, while the third passband is generated by implementing the second-order half-wavelength coupled-line resonator. Another dual-mode open-circuited SLR can be operated at the fourth passband. The proposed quad-band BPF is centered at 1.80/2.45/3.50/4.90 GHz for DCS/WLAN/WiMAX and 5G applications. By appropriately choosing the lengths of the four sets of resonators, all passbands can be fully varied independently with minimal effect on other passbands. Moreover, the bandwidth of each passband can be flexibly controlled by tuning the coupling parameters. The dimension of the fabricated proposed filter is about 0.12 × 0.20 λg, indicating the compactness of the design, whereas the measurements are in good agreement with the simulated results. The measured S11 are at least 12 dB in the four pass-bands. The passbands S21 are approximately 0.65, 1.42, 0.78, and 1.20 dB, which exhibit low insertion loss at the passband frequency of the first, second, third, and fourth passband, respectively. -
PublicationFeasibility study on RF energy harvesting in Malaysia( 2017-01-01)
;Mohd Fareq Abd MalekWorlds are looking for a renewable energy to replace current energy sources. Solar and wind renewable energy has been deployed for some years as one renewable energy in a few countries in a large scale. For a small scale renewable energy, the development of electromagnetic energy harvesting has good potential as one of the sources of renewable energy since the electromagnetic energy is available all the time and everywhere, unlike other renewable energy (e.g., solar, wind, thermal and ocean wave). First step of feasibility of scavenging an RF energy is investigated through power density measurement in urban and semi-urban area. An average power of −13.33 dBm (UMTS band) measured in urban environment. -
PublicationThe Performance Analysis of K-Nearest Neighbors (K-NN) Algorithm for Motor Imagery Classification Based on EEG Signal( 2017-12-11)
;Nurul E’zzati Md IsaMost EEG-based motor imagery classification research focuses on the feature extraction phase of machine learning, neglecting the crucial part for accurate classification which is the classification. In contrast, this paper concentrates on the classifier development where it thoroughly studies the performance analysis of k-Nearest Neighbour (k-NN) classifier on EEG data. In the literature, the Euclidean distance metric is routinely applied for EEG data classification. However, no thorough study has been conducted to evaluate the effect of other distance metrics to the classification accuracy. Therefore, this paper studies the effectiveness of five distance metrics of k-NN: Manhattan, Euclidean, Minkowski, Chebychev and Hamming. The experiment shows that the distance computations that provides the highest classification accuracy is the Minkowski distance with 70.08%. Hence, this demonstrates the significant effect of distance metrics to the k-NN accuracy where the Minknowski distance gives higher accuracy compared to the Euclidean. Our result also shows that the accuracy of k-NN is comparable to Support Vector Machine (SVM) with lower complexity for EEG classification. -
PublicationParametric analysis on the effect of open circuit stub resonator towards the performance of ultra-wideband stepped impedance low pass filterThis paper presents the parametric studies on the effect of open circuit stub resonator (OCSR) towards the performance of Chebyshev Ultra-Wideband Stepped Impedance Low Pass Filter (SILPF). The SILPF is realized by loading OCSR to the high impedance line of the main design in order to overcome the drawback of conventional SILPF. The filter can produce sharp transition band and also wide stopband bandwidth. The design of SILPF is based on 5th order Chebyshev with 0.1 dB ripple. The filter is designed to operate at cut-off frequency 7.30 GHz. By investigating the effect of varying dimension of OSCR’s selected parameters, this paper is able to highlight the susceptibility of modifying cut-off frequency, fc and also transmission zeroes frequency, fz in order to be used for different applications. Thus, the combination of SILPF and OCSR and also rectangular patch combined feed-line structure exhibits wide rejection bandwidth better than −20 dB from 8.20 GHz up to 23.38 GHz. The filter design is simulated on Roger 4003 with relative dielectric constant, εr of 3.38 and also the substrate thickness, h of 0.508. This proposed simulated filter design has shown promising result and could be further analyzed for experimental works and fabrication. Therefore, the filter is beneficial for communication and radar systems particularly to avoid the interference and harmonic as well as the spurious response signals.
