The lighting system is one of the main systems in the building and contributes a considerable amount of energy. Therefore, the daylight harvesting system (DHS) is vital in the lighting system for control and minimize energy consumption from artificial lighting. The main objective of the lighting system is to minimize the dimming level of the luminaires. The optimization method was used in this research to solve the problem formulation in the lighting control system. There are several benefits by using optimization methods such as energy-saving while fulfilling the standard of the average illuminance level based on the European Standard EN12464-1 for the occupancy comfort. In this research, the Firefly Algorithm (FA) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm were compared in order to determine the best optimization method which can solve the problem formulation in the lighting system. The simulation result for FA and PSO has been carried out using MATLAB software. Based on the results, the PSO algorithm shows high performance compared to FA method in order to minimize the dimming level.

The drastic increase in the number of wireless devices and bandwidth requirements, most networks have evolved to distributed networks rather than central client-server configuration. In order to cater a larger number of devices, that is not centrally controlled, a routing scheme is needed that can work with limited configured devices, supports fully dynamic and distributed configurations, and does not overwhelm the network with control messages for the destination that exists in the network but has no message to send. Similarly, this work is focusing on performance analysis of Ad hoc on-demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing protocol to create a mobile ad hoc network (MANET) environment. The simulation has been designed for the real environment of NED University of Engineering and Technology, Karachi, Pakistan, where several buildings of various departments need to communicate with each other without compromising the node's performance with the change in the network occur. The simulation results show that the AODV provides better network performance with fewer packet drops and consistent throughput through the network for varying speeds and locations. The results proved that as compared to Destination-Sequenced Distance Vector (DSDV), the end-to-end delay had shown not much improvement, but comparative delays are observed.

Patient monitoring is a pivotal part of the healthcare system nowadays, either at hospitals or at home. Critical patients require to be monitored consistently and less human involvement, 24 hours a day to enable them to get medical assistance in the moment of need. However, these types of services are only available in private hospitals. Typically, there is a small number of patients in private hospitals, especially from the higher socio-economic backgrounds. Conversely, in public hospital, a huge number of patients require medical attention due to the imbalance between staff to patient ratio. The patient monitoring system is restricted when they are asleep or unconscious due to incapability to call for assistance during an emergency. This may delay the treatment as the medical staff are unaware of the patients’ condition, hence resulting fatality. This work proposes a smart integrated patient monitoring system that automatically detects patient’s emotional state and heartbeat levels through face recognition algorithms, heartbeat and temperature sensors. A Raspberry Pi and NodeMCU are used as client nodes to collect the patient data. These data are then transmitted to an IoT cloud for realtime visualization. Through this monitoring system, critical patients can get immediate attention without the requirement of the staff being present there 24 hours a day. This system offers a faster response from medical staff to provide treatment in critical times.

The GaN is considered by many as it has demonstrated the capability to be the displacement technology for silicon semiconductor in power electronic devices and light emitting diodes. In this project, heterostructure of GaN/AlN were deposited using RF magnetron sputtering at room temperature and its properties was studied. The structural and surface roughness of the deposited films were studied using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and atomic force microscope (AFM). Additionally, cross-sectional of field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) was used for the measurement of GaN/AlN thickness. The XRD results show that the deposited GaN is amorphous while the surface roughness and grain size are in the of $sim 2$ nm and 60 nm, respectively. The surface topography observed using AFM shows that the GaN/AlN has homogenous structure while FESEM images show that the GaN/AlN film has pebble like structure.

The ability of acoustic emission signal in detecting failure in steel structure make it a reliable method in modern non-destructive testing. Generally, the detection of failure relies on the features of signals originated from the source of acoustic emission signal. The aim of this study is to distinguish the acoustic emission signal, based on selected features from two different frictional sources namely metal rubbing and plastic rubbing events on a plate of mild steel panel. During data acquisition, the acoustic emission signals were recorded using a piezoelectric based sensor placed at three specific locations on the mild steel panel. The recorded signals are found to be highly dependent upon the acoustic properties of the source of events. Compared to plastic rubbing, metal rubbing event is found to produce higher absolute energy (<16,333,461aJ) and amplitude (up to 95dB) for all three sensors. Furthermore, the cumulative absolute energy value registered different patterns for both events. The features produced by AE waveforms from each frictional source can be used to characterize and classify the signals. The established correlation between acoustic emission features suggests that this technique can be a valuable tool in predicting various features of signals produced by such metal materials.

One of the equipment that can be used in detecting underground objects is the GPR system. This equipment uses an electromagnetic wave reflection technique produced by its antenna. However, the clarity of the GPR radargram image produced by the system is said to depend on the operating frequency of the system. In order to study the effect of the operating frequency on the GPR radargram, this study developed simulations of the GPR system using three operating frequencies to detect the existence of an underground object, which was divided into a big-sized object and a small-size object. The selected operating frequencies were 0-0.13 GHz, 0-0.5 GHz and 0-1 GHz. The underground object’s depth was set at 2 cm, 5 cm, 7 cm, 20 cm and 30 cm from the ground surface. In the simulations, only the big underground object was detected, except when the object was set on the surface of the ground. Based on the GPR system simulation of underground object detection at 7cm, all the GPR systems developed were able to detect the big underground object, while the GPR system could not discover any small underground object. The GPR radargram produced by the system is able to show the location of the object in the image clearly.

Over the past few years, aviation safety has become a vital area of interest. Foreign Object Debris (FOD) present on airport runways is a huge risk to flights. It can result in grave damage to the air vehicle during crucial operations like takeoff and landing. A high-resolution sensor with ultra high accuracy is needed to detect and locate these small size unwanted articles. Millimeter wave Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) radars that operate at low peak power are specially designed to achieve high range resolution. The proposed design tests the evaluation of such a FMCW radar system operating in K band for single and multiple targets. The proposed radar has a low transmit power of 0.1 W and is able to find tiny alien elements of 0.005 m2 Radar Cross Section (RCS) with accuracy of less than 1 m in 500 m range.

This paper proposes the design of a hybrid renewable energy generation system (HRES) for a large mosque. The selected location is the Putra Mosque, Putrajaya, Malaysia, as it represents a typical large mosque in the country. The location has promising results for the installation of a floating PV system based on the available area on the 12 km lake. Hence, the primary goal of this study is to conduct technical and economic analysis for an installation of a grid-connected floating Photovoltaic (PV) system to mitigate dependency in grid power and minimize CO2 emission. The overall RE system components modeled for the location comprises PV, converter, battery storage, and grid. Whereas, the data collected includes load profile and renewable resources such as solar radiation and temperature. Hybrid Optimization Model for Electrical Renewable (HOMER) software was used to model and simulate the optimal configuration of the hybrid system. The results show a 5-kW grid-connected floating PV system is the best configuration with an initial capital of $ 27,894 and NPC of $ 482,723. This configuration has a 3% RE fraction. This system has lower initial capital and NPC compared to other configurations and has a higher RE energy mix leading to lower CO2 emission
