Fade mitigation technique (FMT) is a method to overcome the rain fade effects in microwave communication link. The frequency diversity method using switching technique was used and implemented in this research. The frequency diversity improvement factor (FDIF) proposed by ITU-R was analysed using measured data. The measurement was used as a benchma

The radio waves propagating through the earth atmosphere is particles, such as water vapor, water drops and the ice particles. The atmospheric gases and rain both absorb and scatter the radio waves, and consequently degrade the performance of the microwave link. Millimeter wave (mmWave) is today's breakthrough frontier for emerging wireless mob

Purpose: Cisplatin and 5-Fluorouracil are the critical components of therapeutic regimen in a broad range of malignancies. Their therapeutic efficacy is limited due to the development of toxic side effects and drug resistance by the cancer cells. Cisplatin toxic side effects are usually associated with mitochondrial injury in vivo and in vitro. In

A feeding trial was conducted to utilize canola meal and soybean meal as major dietary protein sources for kuruma shrimp, Marsupenaeus japonicus. Four isocaloric diets (19 kJ g−1) were formulated by reducing 0 (FM40), 70 (FM12), 85 (FM6) and 100% (FM0) of dietary fishmeal with a combination (4:6) of canola meal and soybean meal (blend). Based on

Flooding is a natural disaster which has been occurring annually throughout the whole world. The disaster, such as other natural catastrophe could only be mitigated rather than it being completely solved. Runoff prediction proved to be very vital in pre-flooding management system.
