CST Simulation on Monopole Sensor for Determination of Malaysian Local Oranges Sweetness Quality Non-destructively

Abstract

The production of citrus in worldwide has increased over the years. This is due to demand from consumer as well as positive progress in agriculture produces a lot of citrus but at the same time statistics shows that the number of citrus being imported from other countries is also high. In order to maintain the quality of citrus production, a non-destructive method by using monopole antenna is used in this study. The reflection coefficient is measured at range operating frequency of 8MHz to 5 GHz. The relationship between dielectric constant and S compared during S 11 at resonance. S-42.84 dB.

Measurement of brix level of Malaysian local oranges at resonance frequency

“…For the tangerine particularly, the principle goal is to By and large the result is exceptionally sensor [11] exhibited a mistake rate of just 4.53% and the utilization recommending it has potential for use in characterizing tangerine organic products by sweetness.…”

“…Based on the magnitude of reflectance coefficient, Γ, relative permittivity using the formula [7,11]:…”
