Real-Life Experiments based on IQRF IoT Testbed: From Sensors to Cloud
2018
Master's thesis Information- and communication technology IKT590 - University of Agder 2018 Internet of things (IoT) is the next generation internet technology which connects devices and objects intelligently to control data collected by diverse types of sensors, radio frequency identification and other physical objects. To address the challenges in IoT such as integrating artificial intelligent techniques with IoT concept, developing green IoT technologies and combining IoT and cloud computing, various platforms which support reliable and low power wireless connectivity are required. IQRF is a recently developed platform for wireless connectivity. It provides low power, low speed, reliable…
Optical-Microwave Sensor for Real-Time Measurement of Water Contamination in Oil Derivatives
2023
This paper presents a novel microwave sensor using optical activation for measuring in real-time the water contamination in crude oil or its derivatives. The sensor is constructed from an end-coupled microstrip resonator that is interconnected to two pairs of identical fractal structures based on Moore curves. Electromagnetic (EM) interaction between the fractal curves is mitigated using a T-shaped microstrip-stub to enhance the performance of the sensor. The gap in one pair of fractal curves is loaded with light dependent resistors (LDR) and the other pair with microwave chip capacitors. The chip capacitors were used to increase the EM coupling between the fractal gaps to realize a high Q-…
