This academic paper introduces a novel sensor known as the Planar Microstrip-based Triple Ring Bridge Complementary Split Ring Resonator (TRB-CSRR) sensor. The main objective of this sensor is to determine the permittivity and thickness of solid dielectric substances. The TRB-CSRR sensor is meticulously designed to resonate precisely at a frequency of 4.86 GHz, achieving a significant notch depth of -33.5 dB. This configuration displays an enhanced average relative sensitivity of 20.2%. The study undertakes numerical assessments across various scenarios, encompassing situations where the sensor interacts with diverse dielectric materials. These assessments yield insights into alterations in resonant frequencies. By meticulously refining the design, the sensor's capability to confine electric fields precisely at the resonant frequency is amplified, ultimately resulting in heightened sensitivity towards dielectric characteristics. The sensor's efficacy is tested using materials featuring relative permittivity values spanning from 1.006 to 12.9, while consistently adhering to dimensions of 5 mmx5 mmx1.6 mm. To validate the conceptual frame -work, a physical sensor is fabricated, and its response is gauged through the utilization of a vector network analyzer (VNA-AV3672D). Employing curve fitting methodologies, alterations in resonance frequencies due to interactions with the tested materials are presented, underscoring the impact of permittivity and thickness. The outcomes derived from simulations, empirical measurements, and calculations display a robust alignment.
This research suggests a compact, wideband Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) antenna designed for S-band applications, emphasizing high isolation between closely positioned antenna elements.Achieving this isolation is accomplished through the implementation of a Defected Ground Structure (DGS) technique.The DGS is realized by etching two elliptical patterns on an economical FR-4 substrate with inherent loss properties.Three rectangular slots and two L-shaped stubs are introduced to improve isolation and minimize the size of antenna increment by lowering surface wave propagation.To validate the proposed layout, a physical prototype was constructed for a direct comparison of its performance with the simulated parameters.The results demonstrated highly favorable outcomes, including Diversity Gain (DG) exceeding 9.97 dB, Envelope Correlation Coefficient (ECC) registering below 0.05, Mean Effective Gain (MEG) lower than -3 dB, Total Active Reflection Coefficient (TARC) below 0.4, and Channel Capacity Loss (CCL) less than 0.3.Furthermore, the current distribution and radiation pattern were found to be highly suitable for applications in the S-band and the lower part of the C-band, encompassing technologies like Bluetooth, WiFi, WiMAX, 4G, and 5G.
In this paper, a low-cost resin-coated commercial-photo-paper substrate is used to design a printed reconfigurable multiband antenna. The two PIN diodes are used mainly to redistribute the surface current that provides reconfigurable properties to the proposed antenna. The antenna size of 40 mm × 40 mm × 0.44 mm with a partial ground, covers wireless and mobile bands ranging from 1.91 GHz to 6.75 GHz. The parametric analysis is performed to achieve optimized design parameters of the antenna. The U-shaped and C-shaped emitters are meant to function at 2.4 GHz and 5.9 GHz, respectively, while the primary emitter is designed to operate at 3.5 GHz. The proposed antenna achieved peak gain and radiation efficiency of 3.4 dBi and 90%, respectively. Simulated and measured results of the reflection coefficient, radiation pattern, gain, and efficiency show that the antenna design is in favorable agreement. Since the proposed antenna achieved wideband (1.91–6.75 GHz) using PIN diode configuration, using this technique the need for numerous electronic components to provide multiband frequency is avoided.

This article presents a quad-element MIMO antenna designed for multiband operation. The prototype of the design is fabricated and utilizes a vector network analyzer (VNA-AV3672D) to measure the S-parameters. The proposed antenna is capable of operating across three broad frequency bands: 3–15.5 GHz, encompassing the C band (4–8 GHz), X band (8–12.4 GHz), and a significant portion of the Ku band (12.4–15.5 GHz). Additionally, it covers two mm-wave bands, specifically 26.4–34.3 GHz and 36.1–48.9 GHz, which corresponds to 86% of the Ka-band (27–40 GHz). To enhance its performance, the design incorporates a partial ground plane and a top patch featuring a dual-sided reverse 3-stage stair and a straight stick symmetrically placed at the bottom. The introduction of a defected ground structure (DGS) on the ground plane serves to provide a wideband response. The DGS on the ground plane plays a crucial role in improving the electromagnetic interaction between the grounding surface and the top patch, contributing to the wideband characteristics of the antenna. The dimensions of the proposed MIMO antenna are 31.7 mm × 31.7 mm × 1.6 mm. Furthermore, the article delves into the assessment of various performance metrics related to antenna diversity, such as ECC, DG, TARC, MEG, CCL, and channel capacity, with corresponding values of 0.11, 8.87 dB, −6.6 dB, ±3 dB, 0.32 bits/sec/Hz, and 18.44 bits/sec/Hz, respectively. Additionally, the equivalent circuit analysis of the MIMO system is explored in the article. It’s worth noting that the measured results exhibit a strong level of agreement with the simulated results, indicating the reliability of the proposed design. The MIMO antenna’s ability to exhibit multiband response, good diversity performance, and consistent channel capacity across various frequency bands renders it highly suitable for integration into multi-band wireless devices.

Car resale value prediction is the technique for estimating the prices of an old car. Second hand cars are in high demand but the process for evaluating their value is flawed which may lead them to be priced at unrealistic rates. Here, we offer our contribution for this issue. In this paper, an ensemble machine learning approach, XG Boost is proposed, which takes the important features of a car into account and assigns the cost based on it. Our proposed system uses multiple gradient boosted trees which minimizes the overfitting and eliminates irregularities from the predictions. Further, the accuracies for different machine learning algorithms such as Linear regression, Lasso Regression, Random Forest, KNN, and CART are calculated and compared with our model. From experimental results, major factors which contributed towards the car prices are found to be year of manufacture, distance driven, fuel type and transmission. The proposed approach contributes promising results in forecasting the resale value of the car, and achieves an accuracy of 93.73%.
