The Quantification of the Influence of Rain Attenuation on Received Power at Ka Band

ABSTRACT  The quality of satellite communication link can be seriously affected by variable climatic phenomena such as rain, gases, and scintillation. As the frequency of operation increases 8 beyond 10GHz, the effect of rain becomes very severe with the growing need for high bandwidth frequencies such as frequencies in the Ku-band and Ka- band hence the need for better fade mitigation becomes necessary. In order to identify the appropriate rain fade mitigation technique, there is need to qu...

Design And Construction Of An Automatic Single Phase Transfer Switch

ABSTRACT This project presents the design and construction of a microcontroller based Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) for a single phase system. The ATS, which is based on a switch gear control system, gives a functional system that provides an automatic switching of power supply between a primary source (public utility) and a secondary power source (generator). The methods employed in designing the ATS involve the use of switching and power relays, Atmega8 microcontroller, diodes, resis...

Department Of Electrical And Electronics Engineering Federal University, Oye Ekiti,

ABSTRACT This report presents a design and implementation of a microcontroller based remote controller for fan and lighting system with LCD indicator. It enables the user to switch ON and OFF the fan and lighting system from approximately 6 meters. The entire system is based on microcontroller that makes the control system smarter and easy to modify. The system ranges from a power supply unit to the control unit and the display unit which indicates when the system is turned ON or OFF. ln...

Design And Construction Of Microcontroller Based Metal And Mobile Phone Detector

ABSTRACT This project present the design and construction of a micro-controller based metal and mobile phone detector for security and control purposes. The metal detecting systems is a microcontroller based system. This metal detector make use of microcontroller for it operation as well as other components such as: comparator, voltage regulator, operational amplifier. transistors etc .. For this project, the metal detector is built in a way that a metal sensor (culprit oscillator) senses...

DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF 1.5kv A HYBRIDE POWER MODULAR INVERTER TRAINER KIT

ABSRACT The reliability of Power Company Electricity Service varies greatly due to many factors including the design of the power grid, protective features, power system maintenance practices and severe weather. This work is on the design and construction of a l .5KV A Pulse Width Modulated (PWM), Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor (MOSFET) based Inverter, which works on the principle of Pulse Width Modulation. The inverter uses the IC SG3524 and a pair of six IRFP260N MOS...

Design And Construction Of A Gsm-Based Gas Leakage Detector For Use In Residential Area

ABSTRACT In urban areas, Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) is a leading source of fuel because it is clean compared to kerosene, charcoal and firewood. Due to increase in its use, there is always danger of gas leakage which pose great danger to lives and property due to highly flammable nature of the gas. Cases of gas explosions has been on the rise and thus the need for development of a fast response and high accurate GSM based gas detection system. The developed device is a gas detector us...

Design And Construction Of Microcontroller Based Digital Wattmeter

ABSTRACT The purpose of this project is to design and implement a digital wattmeter that can measure wattage of a circuit The design is implemented using the microcontroller ATMEGA 8, based on the principle of calculating power mathematically two ATMEGA8 were used, one for measuring current while the other for measuring voltage, the multiplication of the voltage and current values gives the wattage reading. At the end of the process the LCD displays the voltage, current and wattage readin...

Design And Implementation Of A 1.5kva Single Phase Inverter

ABSTRACT This project presents a single phase inverter system which serves as an alternative power supply. The conversion technique used is first converting the low voltage DC power to AC power using pulse width modulation (PWM), then boosted to high AC voltage using a step up transformer for constant output voltage instead of boosting the low voltage DC power to high voltage power source using a DC- DC booster which is then convetted to AC power using pulse width modulation (PWM). It is ...

Design And Construction Of A Vehicle Tracking And Accident Alert System Using Gps And Gsm Module

ABSTRACT This project is about the Design and Construction of a Vehicle Tracking and Accident Alert System (VTAA) using GPS and GSM Technology. It comprises of integration between GPS receiver, microcontroller and GSM module, and of course the push button for accident alert activation. The combination of all this technology wilJ produce our VTAA system. The GPS module receive the coordinate of the point at which the system is located, controlled by the user using command interfaces thro...

Design And Construction Of An Audio/video Transmitter

ABSTRACT The design of the wireless audio and video transmitter was done in stages taking into consideration a pre-selected desired frequency. These stages are the power supply stage, the carrier frequency generation stage, the carrier frequency pre-amplification stage, the voltage controlled oscillation stage and the final stage which is the modulation and amplification stage. First, carrier frequency was generated in the oscillator circuit comprising of an NPN transistor Cl 674, a vari...

Design And Construction Of A Fan And Light Automation System

ABSTRACT Electricity is one of the foremost necessary resources during this century which needs to be conserved otherwise the next generations might be deprived of the opportunity. However there is tendency we leave our various rooms and offices and forget to switch off the lights and fan, so electricity is wasted. Additionally in most cases, switches of lights and fan are situated in places where we might need to search for them in the dark and just in case of guests, it becomes tougher. Th...

Monitoring And Control Of 3-Tier Power Supply

Abstract Reliable electricity supply is essential for development. As a result, demand for electricity has continued to increase globally, occasioned by the fact that electricity is highly portable and can be transformed from one form to another to meet needs. In Nigeria and most developing countries, electricity supply from the public utility is not only insufficient but highly erratic. The effect of this is adverse on critical and sensitive infrastructure that depend on uninterrupted power...
