Outage prediction modelling of terrestrial free space optics for tropical region by Muftah Shumani, Mohamed Mahmud

“…In modern times, Free Space Optical (FSO) communication technology has become an alternative way to radio links and optical cables. FSO links provide gigabit per second data rates and unlimited bandwidth, however its availability can easily be affected by fading due to different meteorological conditions such as fog, haze, snow and rain. …”

Studies of oxime complexes by Shutie, Winston Michael

“…The complexes Fe(Ppo)2.H2O, Fe(Ppo)2 .2py and Fe(po)2.H2O were found to be high spin. This property contrasts the behaviour of iron(II) complexes derived from 2-nitrosophenols, which are low spin, and is rationalised in terms of conjugation effects and the bonding character of the pyrazol-4, 5-dione monooxime ligand. …”

Neutral point inverter controller using H infinity techniques by M. Alsharif, Ali Omar

“…This can be achieved by using a neutral-point circuit that consists of a conventional neutral leg and a split dc link. In this project, a H infinity (H∞ ) current controller is proposed to force the current flowing through the split dc link to be nearly zero so that the neutral-point current is stable, and then, a current control loop is added to eliminate the imbalance of the current so that the neutral-point current is balanced with respect to the dc terminals. …”
