Class E power amplifier with the presence of π1b matching resonant circuit is applied in this work as a high frequency ac power source since it has the ability to perform dc-to-ac inversion efficiently. It supports the CPT system to attain a maximum power transmission. MATLAB software is used to design and simulate the CPT circuit; and the analysis is made up from the results. This proposed system able to generate 1W of output power by maintaining up to 98% efficiency at 6.78MHz operating frequency for Biomedical Implantable Device application.

The existence of passive tag with proximity to human body in general, represents an intrinsic challenge because of the high losses of body tissues A commercial passive ultra-high frequency (UHF) RFID tag with 860 MHz-960 MHz operating frequency range is modelled to study and analyze the effect on the read range parameter by placing the RFID tag in proximity to human body model (the chest) with respect to the placement of pocket position of any shirt The body model of the chest is consisting of three layers which are skin, fat and muscle. The commercial RFID tag that has been used for this study was INLAY-9662. The measurement is done on the commercial tag prior to modelling and simulation in the CST. Furthermore, the simulation was carried on two conditions: (1) in free-space, and (2) in proximity to human body. In addition, 1 mm, 3 mm and 10 mm have been set as the gap between the modelled tag and the chest model to examine the impacted read range at different distances. The results obtained have shown some variations when the distances are varied from the human chest. The read range were achieved at 0.5 m, 1.3 m and 2.4 m for 1 mm, 3 mm and 10 mm respectively.

They are introduced in a few categories such as single-rotor, multi-rotors, fixed-wing, and hybrid VTOL. As for multirotor drones, quadcopters are the most well-known either commercially or in the research field. Due to its advantages, a quadcopter has been chosen to perform various tasks across various fields such as entertainment, military, meteorological reconnaissance, civil and emergency responses. As the demand for quadcopters has diverged, the required features of quadcopters have also diverged. One of the current features required by quadcopters is the ability to track trajectories. However, due to its nature of non-linearity, under-actuated and unstable, controlling quadcopter for an accurate and stable performance is quite a challenge. Despite the various proposed methods throughout the past decades, PID controller is still used as either the main controller or the base controller in most cases of industrial control, including quadcopter, mainly due to its simplicity and robustness. However, to design a proper PID controller for quadcopter system is a challenge as it defies the control inputs of four with its six degree-of-freedom form, in which six inputs are required to be controlled to ensure a stable and accurate flight. This paper derived a mathematically model of a quadcopter with Newton-Euler’s equation. Some assumptions on the body and structure of the quadcopter are taken into account to make the modelling possible. Then, a manually tuned PID controller is designed to achieve the objective of controlling the operation and stability of the quadcopter during its flight. The designed controller is tested with five different trajectories which are circular, square, lemniscate, zigzag, and spiral. The results show the proposed controller successfully tracks the desired trajectories, which prove PID controller can be used to control a quadcopter.","PeriodicalId":312612,"journal":{"name":"ELEKTRIKA- Journal of Electrical Engineering","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130422551","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the study on the miniature peripheral ECT sensor was limited to 2D image reconstruction and detection of presents of samples in the sensing chamber only and lacked the works on the 3D imaging capability. Therefore, this article investigates the 3D image reconstruction capability of peripheral on-chip ECT sensor through simulation approach by simulating a cube phantom at several test positions in the sensing chamber. Eventually, the 3D and 2D images were reconstructed and the 3D imaging capability of the sensor was characterised qualitatively based on visual inspection of the reconstructed image. The simulation results revealed that the 3D imaging capability of peripheral on-chip ECT sensor was limited to the region where electrodes were present only.

Presently, the Nigerian power industry is undergoing restructuring, especially in the generation and distribution systems. In view of the deregulation of electricity distribution and marketing, the traditional practices of the Nigerian power system are undergoing changes to address the identified problems in the existing power system. Specifically, better utilization of the existing power transmission network to improve on the system transfer capability and minimize cost is one of the key focuses of the deregulation agenda. This work deals with the enhancement of transfer capability of Nigerian 58-bus, 330kV network using FACTS (Flexible Alternating Current Transmission System) devices. FACTS devices are used for controlling transmission voltage, power flow, reducing reactive power losses, and damping of power system oscillations for high power transfer capability. Three FACTS devices; Thyristor Controlled Series Compensator (TCSC), Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC), and Interline Power Flow Controller (IPFC) were used to investigate the transfer capability of the Nigerian 58-bus power system network. NEPLAN was employed in this work to model the Nigerian 58-bus system and optimally placed the FACTS devices at the weakest buses that were found out through the computation for available transfer capability (ATC) after continuation power flow (CPF) simulation was completed. MATLAB codes were developed and used to calculate power transfer capability of the network without and with FACTS devices. Comparing the three FACTS devices, the results obtained showed that UPFC enhanced the power transfer capability of the network than TCSC and IPFC.","PeriodicalId":312612,"journal":{"name":"ELEKTRIKA- Journal of Electrical Engineering","volume":"IA-15 3","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132625021","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There are a few approaches that can be used in order to detect and classify fault in the transmission line. Two methods of fault detection and classification have been used to be analyzed in order to identify both method accuracy and reliability. The two methods are the Wavelet Transform method and the Fuzzy Logic based method. Both methods show their own advantages and disadvantages after simulation have been done. These methods are later being utilized by combining both to create a better version of fault detection and classification method. In this paper, a combined method of Wavelet Transform and Fuzzy Logic based for fault detection and classification model for power systems is developed and simulated.

Simulations are carried out in Biosensor Lab to investigate the performance of ISFET with planar, nanowire and nanosphere structures in detecting PSA. Using nanostructured ISFET in disease diagnosis is demonstrated by comparing the performance with the surface-to-volume (S/V) ratio. The nanosphere biosensor with the highest S/V ratio showed the lowest settling time when there was a low analyte concentration. Its settling time is 788 times lower than planar and almost 3 times lower than nanowire ISFET. In addition, the time needed for a planar biosensor to capture M of PSA is 5 times slower than a nanowire biosensor and nanosphere biosensor. In signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), nanosphere ISFET exhibits the highest value compared to other structures.
