Jumlah kandungan elektron sewaktu gangguan ionosfera bergerak di Parit Raja, Johor

Travelling ionospheric disturbance (TID) is a phenomenon caused by solar activity and TID strength varies by locations, especially in equatorial regions. This phenomenon affects the local total electron content (TEC), especially during the daytime. Because of this, research regarding augmenting TEC values during TID is done by comparing TEC values obtained from the IRI2001 and NeQuick models with IONEX data. By using Global Positioning System (GPS) data obtained from the Parit Raja station in the southern part of Malaysia (1º 52’ N, 103º 06’ E) as reference, research was conducted during geomagnetic quiet day as well as on the disturbed day. The occurrence of TID can clearly be seen when using the real TEC data from IONEX and WARAS. Result obtained from Parit Raja station shows a much more significant effect of TID occurrence on TEC than what was shown by IONEX data. However, the TEC values obtained from the IRI2001 and NeQuick models were influenced by the number of sunspots and were only applicable in geomagnetic quiet days. In order to obtain more accurate TEC values, it is necessary to ensure that TID condition is included in the IRI2001 and NeQuick model

A wireless precoding technique for millimetre-wave MIMO system based on SIC-MMSE

A communication method is proposed using Minimum Mean Square Error (MMSE) precoding and Successive Interference Cancellation (SIC) technique for millimetre-wave multiple-input multiple-output (mm-Wave MIMO) based wireless communication system. The mm-Wave MIMO technology for wireless communication system is the base potential technology for its high data transfer rate followed by data instruction and low power consumption compared to Long-Term Evolution (LTE). The mm-Wave system is already available in indoor hotspot and Wi-Fi backhaul for its high bandwidth availability and potential lead to rate of numerous Gbps/user. But, in mobile wireless communication system this technique is lagging because the channel faces relative orthogonal coordination and multiple node detection problems while rapid movement of nodes (transmitter and receiver) occur. To improve the conventional mm-wave MIMO nodal detection and coordination performance, the system processes data using symbolized error vector technique for linearization. Then the MMSE precoding detection technique improves the link strength by constantly fitting the channel coefficients based on number of independent service antennas (M), Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR), Channel Matrix (CM) and mean square errors (MSE). To maintain sequentially encoded user data connectivity and to overcome data loss, SIC method is used in combination with MMSE. MATLAB was used to validate the proposed system performance

RF Energy Harvesting Wireless Networks: Challenges And Opportunities

Energy harvesting wireless networks is one of the most researched topics in this decade, both in industry and academia, as it can offer self-sustaining sensor networks. With RF energy harvesting (RF-EH) embedded, the sensors can operate for extended periods by harvesting energy from the environment or by receiving it as an Energy signal from a hybrid base station (HBS). Thus, providing sustainable solutions for managing massive numbers of sensor nodes. However, the biggest hurdle of RF energy is the low energy density due to spreading loss. This paper investigates the RF-EH node hardware and design essentials, performance matrices of RF-EH. Power management in energy harvesting nodes is discussed. Furthermore, an information criticality algorithm is proposed for critical and hazardous use cases. Finally, some of the RF-EH applications and the opportunities of 5G technologies for the RF-EH are introduced

Dynamic power allocation and scheduling for MIMO RF energy harvesting wireless sensor platforms

Radio frequency (RF) energy harvesting systems are enabling new evolution towards charging low energy wireless devices, especially wireless sensor networks (WSN). This evolution is sparked by the development of low-energy micro-controller units (MCU). This article presents a practical multiple input multiple output (MIMO) RF energy-harvesting platform for WSN. The RF energy is sourced from a dedicated access point (AP). The sensor node is equipped with multiple antennas with diverse frequency responses. Moreover, the platform allows for simultaneous information and energy transfer without sacrificing system duplexity, unlike time-switching RF harvesting systems where data is transmitted only for a portion of the total transmission duty cycle, or power-splitting systems where the power difference between the information signal (IS) and energy signal (ES) is neglected. The proposed platform addresses the gap between those two. Furthermore, system simulation and two energy scheduling methods between AP and sensor node (SN) are presented, namely, Continuous power stream (CPS) and intermittent power stream (IPS)
