    This paper discusses about the development of output feedback Sliding Mode Control (SMC) and demonstrates that this controller is able to reject disturbance in a nonlinear system.The designed SMC controller works well to ensure system stability and eliminates disturbance in linear and nonlinear dynamics systems. The approach to develop output feedback controller is by implementing High Gain Observer and the output performance from this controller is compared with the output response from the state feedback SMC. Both designed controllers are constructed in simulation by using MATLAB SIMULINK tool. The required gains involve in the designed control laws are tuned heuristically by trial and error approach. The state response results obtained from the simulations are analyzed. Based on the observation and analysis to the results it shows that the output feedback SMC illustrates smooth state response and reduces the effect of disturbance as provided by the state feedback (SMC) without disturbance

    This paper discuss about the development of Proportional and Integral (PI) controller for disc speed by involving the disturbance at the feedback control. The effect of the disturbance to the disc speed system is eliminated by Proportional and Integral (PI) controller. The PI controller is tuned heuristically from the MATLAB/simulink at which integrated with the disc plant. The performance of the disc plant is analyzed in real-time. Based on the analysis in real-time, this paper shows that the performance of the PI controller with disturbance and without disturbance. The result with disturbance shows that the output response quite closes to the result without disturbance even though the overshoot is about 8 percent. By the way, the rise time and settling time of the disc speed with disturbance is reduced for the time less than 0.01 and 0.95 seconds each. From the results with and without disturbance, this paper concludes that the development of PI controller for this speed in simulation give less error about 0.02 compared to the real-time system

    Tension is the force required to pull the wire against the accumulation of all resistance, forces and loads. Tension is one of the important controlled parameters in winding process in order to determine the quality of the product. Winding process in electric discharge machine (EDM) wire manufacturing is the last process before the product is packed and sent to customers. In EDM wire manufacturing process, incorrect tension will result in wire winding failure and wire straightness failure. Since it is the last process in EDM wire manufacturing, it is needed to ensure that there is no reject product contributed in this process. The increase of the pendulum dancer fluctuation and deviation angle when the winding diameter gets bigger especially when it is in high speed will course winding tension problem. This project mainly describes about the modelling of the system and the variation parameters that affects the system performance. The system performance is validated by changing the value of radius of winder

    This paper discussed about the development of low cost Portable Anti-Theft Device (PATD) that able to reduce the issue in snatch-theft, property lost due to leaving it behind, misplace and to monitor the children movement in public area. This device consists of two parts that are the transmitter and receiver controlling circuit which communicate by RFID technology application. It also equipped with a high volume triggering alarm system that activates when the range between the transmitter and the receiver circuits reach a specific distance. It is hope that with this PATD can reduced the issues of theft and snatching crime as well as preventing from loss, injuries and missing

    Vehicle plate number is a unique combination of characters and numbers. Hence, it has been used in various application as personal identification such as for parking system identification, security monitoring system and etc. This paper illustrated the double edge detection technique in order to enhance the vehicle plate image, before character recognition process. Firstly, the vehicle image is captured, and then it will be re-sized and cropped until the resolution of image is 300×300. After the re-sized process, First Edge detection is applied to the image. Threshold of black and white are 59 and 60 respectively used to change the image into black and white colour only. Next, Second Edge detection is used to remove the unwanted image and only remain the plate number in white colour. MATLAB software is used in this experiment

    A New Improvement of Reverse Voltage Single Phase Multilevel Inverter Topology

    The widely use of a multilevel inverter (MLI) in high power system applications proves that MLI is highly superior to the conventional inverter in reducing harmonic distortion. Basically there are three topologies of multilevel inverters that commonly used, which is cascaded H-Bridge, diode clamped and flying capacitor. Even though these inverters can produce low harmonic distortion, many switching devices are needed to perform high voltage level. However, the usage of a numerous number of switching devices can produce high switching losses. It also increases weight, space, cost and switching complexity of the hardware. Therefore, this study attempts to develop low harmonic distortion with less switching devices by improving the reverse voltage topology using MATLAB/Simulink software. The performance of proposed scheme was evaluated through an extensive test considering several scenarios such as amplitude modulation ratio (Ma), total harmonic distortion (THD) and switching scheme under various operating points. Moreover the effectiveness of the proposed scheme was verified by comparing its result with conventional MLI such as reverse voltage MLI topology and cascaded H-bridge topology
