This paper present the performance of Fuzzy logic controller in maintain level of water in water tank system. The mathematical modelling was developed to get the initial idea of the system performance. Later, the prototype of water tank system were constructed and tested to get the real time results. The Takagi-Sugeno “on” and “off” interference technique method was implemented due to the control limitation of the pump motor that being used in the experimental setup. The fuzzy logic controller was realized by embedded the algorithm in microcontroller of the water tank system. The experimental results show acceptable level of water within the range of 18cm to 20.5cm and settling time 59 seconds with 20 cm set point.

A common voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) architecture used in the phase locked loop (PLL) is the ring oscillator (RO). RO consist of number of inverters cascaded together as the input of the first stage connected to the output of the last stage. It is important to design the RO to be work at desired frequency depend on application with low power consumption. This paper presents a review the performance evaluation of different delay cell topologies the implemented in the ring oscillator. The various topologies analyzed includes current starved delay cell, differential delay cell and current follower cell. Performance evaluation includes frequency range, frequency stability, phase noise and power consumption had been reviewed and comparison of different topologies has been discussed. It is observed that starved current delay cell have lower power consumption and the different of the frequency range is small as compared to other type of delay cell.

<span>Local area network (LAN) as Bluetooth, WiFi and ZigBee are well established technology. The biggest problem with many LAN is the battery consumption and short ranges link budgets. LoRa is a new, private, unlicensed and spread spectrum modulation technique which allows sending low rates at extremely long ranges with minimal power consumption. More importantly, there is no access fee associated with this type of wireless technology. The main idea behind this work is to conduct performance and capability analysis of a currently available LoRa transceiver. We develop a location monitoring system using LoRa and global positioning system (GPS) module and we analyze the detectable range of its data, its battery consumption as well as received signal strength indicator (RSSI). Our deployment experiment demonstrates that the sy<span>stem is able to detect the transmitted data within 290 meters of distances. Using 6 volts of battery AA, the transmission of data still occurred after 24 hours</span>. <span>This project is emphasized a location monitoring system that provide low power usage</span> but long range.</span>

<span>This paper describes the design and development of a measuring tool using a mobile robot. At present, contractors are measuring distances using measuring tape which has few limitations. This includes using of another manpower or a marking flag. The Robot Measuring System is designed to measure distances at multiple conditions such as smooth and rough surface. An optical quadrature encoder is used as a sensor to measure the distances while a program is installed in Arduino Uno for reading and data collection. Graphical User Interface (GUI) was created using Android software so that the movement of the robot can be controlled using a smartphone within a Bluetooth range. An experiment was conducted to test the reliability in terms of accuracy and precision. The best accuracy and precision were obtained when the robot speed is at 90 cm/s on the plain tiles, 80 cm/s on the tar road and 90 cm/s on the grass surface. The robot speed needs to be adjusted accordingly based on the surfaces in order to get an accurate result. <br /> This paper proved that the robot measuring system was successfully designed, implemented and analyzed.</span>
