The effects of dust storms on propagation of electromagnetic wave at millimeter wave band are investigated. The propagation at millimeter wave band is affected by dust particles by way of signal attenuation. Formula for evaluating the wave attenuation at higher frequencies in a dusty medium is therefore developed in this work. The formula is based

Microwave links performance during dust storms has received considerable interest in recent time with emphasis on signal attenuation. However, phase shift and cross polarization have not been tackled enough. This paper investigates the cross polarization discrimination (XPD) induced by dust storms at millimetre wave band. It introduces simple model

Purpose: To investigate the combined effect of Carica papaya extract and mineral elements wound healing. Methods: Phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) and water extracts of unripe Carica papaya. papaya were analyzed for mineral element composition (Ca, calcium; Mg, magnesium; Na, sodium; Fe, iron; Mn, manganese; Zn, zinc; Ag, silver; and Se, selenium) u

Carbon nanotube reinforced aluminium nano-composites were produced using powder metallurgy route with different weight percent of CNT into the Al matrix. The wear behaviour of pure aluminium (Al) and carbon nanotube reinforced aluminium (CNT-Al) nano-composite with different CNT content were studied with a pin-on-disc tribometer, sliding against AI

Household debt in Malaysia has been on an upward trend and increasing at a relatively fast pace. This study provides an in-depth analysis of the current Malaysian urban households’ vulnerabilities and risks and determines differences across the three major ethnic groups of Malay, Chinese and Indian. It examines households’ perception of risk, t

This chapter presents a study that explores the perceptions of financial institutions on several aspects of PPP implementation in Malaysia, which include the commitment towards PPP, the understanding of the PPP concept and the factors that determine the decision of the financial institutions to finance PPP projects in Malaysia. To achieve the objec

Digital image watermarking techniques have been developed widely in recent years to maintain the broadcasting media and content authentication, broadcast monitoring, copy control, and many other applications. Therefore, many studies have used digital image watermarking to solve these problem. This paper highlights digital image watermarking. It sta

Load prediction is essential for the planning and management of electric power system and this has been an area of research interest recently. Various load forecasting techniques have been proposed to predict consumer load which represents the activities of the consumer on the distribution network. Commonly, these techniques use cumulative energy c

Illegal connection which is direct connection to the distribution feeder and tampering of energy meter has been identified as a major process through which nefarious consumers steal electricity on low voltage distribution system. This has contributed enormously to the revenue losses incurred by the power and energy providers. A Consumer Load Protot
