« Machine learning system for IoT data stream connected to Freeze-DIC machine sensor
device in drying pineapple»

Summary By analyzing big data generated using IoT-wireless technology, synchronizing

digital, physical value streams, predictive analytics, the process of control and monitor the
manufacturing machines become more predictability and interoperability. Big data analytics
of machine learning systems is proposed for optimizing the DIC-Freeze drying operation of
18
pineapple. The IoT sensor device connected to the DIC-Freeze drying machine will generate a
huge volume and high-speed velocity data signals. Machine learning helps manufacturers
enhance their production, eliminate production downtime, increase the quality of processes,
and reduce financial risk. Therefore, a DIC-Freeze machine with machine learning focuses on
the development of artificial intelligence and a method of data analysis. The aims of complex
algorithms to automate the drying process is to predict the optimum level of time duration,
pressure and temperature for drying different species of pineapple by making insightful
decisions. In addition, it is easy to get fake pineapple extracts and the large quantities of data
produced by DNA sequencing. DNA could be sequenced by generating fragments via the
hidden scheme. The fake issue can be detected based on the DNA sequencing database
integrated with the properties of phytopharmacological characteristics, physical biology and
biometric properties of pineapple species. Some analytical methods of the complex model for
data generation and machine learning are useful for the visualization, observation and
monitoring process to facilitate the data decision making. Multi-processor of distributed
memory architectures of high performance computing platform support the large sparse
simulation. Parallel performance measurements and numerical analysis are the indicators to
investigate the drying process. DIC-Freeze drying with this adaptive manufacturing
technology preserves the sensorial quality and nutritional compounds. In the case of high-
water-content perishable, the treatment is usually accompanied by irreversible damage of cell
structures, maintain the nutrient quality and deterioration of tissue porosity. The working
principles are to identify the factors influencing the customer's choice for a new product of
dry pineapple. To optimize the DIC-Freeze drying treatment and to analyze the characteristics
of potential customers for the premium drying pineapple product, this paper proposed big data
analytics of synchronizing digital, physical value streams and predictive analytics. As a
comparative, freeze-drying machine without IoT data sensor and machine learning analysis
will not produce the highest quality of pineapple nutrient and effect of socioeconomic factors

« Technologies of Optically Transparent Antennas from VHF/UHF to the millimeter-wave
band. »

Summary The development of wireless communications and the increase of radio

applications, such as UMTS, Bluetooth, GPS, WLAN, etc., in dense urban areas are an
environmental challenge requiring innovative technological solutions. To restrict the visual
impact of the associated antenna networks and to improve their location in the city, an
attractive possibility is to develop optically transparent antennas. In this field area of interests,
thin-film materials deposited on see-through substrates provide innovative solutions.
Such transparent antennas are usually fabricated from transparent conducting oxide (TCO)
films, such as indium tin oxide (ITO), fluorine tin oxide (FTO), or multilayers such as
TCO/metal/TCO deposited on glass substrates. However, these solutions imply a limitation in
sheet resistance Rs and/or optical transparency, T values. To circumvent these restrictions, we
have developed an original approach: the fabrication of mesh metal films which exhibit very
low sheet resistance value: Rs=0.05 ohm/sq (to restrict the ohmic loss) combined with high
thickness: 6 μm (to limit the skin depth effect) and high transparency: T=80% in the visible
light spectrum. This novel solution provides the best radiating efficiency at microwave
frequency. In this communication, we report on ITO films, ITO/metal/ITO multilayers, and

19
silver/titanium films deposited on Corning glass substrates by R.F. sputtering and the
fabrication of the mesh metal structures. We investigate the microwave performance of
various transparent antennas made from such materials with different levels of transparency
and sheet resistance values. Each transparent antenna performance is compared with that of a
reference counterpart made from a continuous (opaque) metal film.
Many passive and active antennas examples will be presented and discussed during the
communication.

« The role of lithium ion batteries in the future energy transition»

Summary: The main objective of the energy transition is reducing the greenhouse gas (GHG)
emission due to hydrocarbon materials combustion used in transportation, industry and in
housings and buildings so as to reduce the effects of climate change, such as global warming.
Accordingly, tremendous efforts have been deployed to transit from the combustible sources
of energy to clean and sustainable sources such as solar, wind, waves, hydroelectricity and
geothermal, among others. As a result the cost of solar panels both thermal and photovoltaic
together with the cost of wind turbines have been dramatically reduced making clean energy
economically viable as compared to fossil based one.
A serious limitation of clean energy sources is their intermittency i. e. day/night and clouds
for solar and level of wind for the turbines. Electric power companies are entitled to provide
enough power to their customers 24/7. This is one area where lithium ion batteries will play a
major role in power time shifting and power peak shaving. Besides stationary energy storage
the other major applications of LIB are in mobile electronics and in electric vehicles.
Our research activity is currently focused on improving LIB performances in terms of life,
safety and fast charging and will be shown in this presentation.

« Modern IT and IoT technologies in innovative solutions for aquaculture

Summary: Aquaculture (or aquafarming), is the farming cultivating freshwater and saltwater
populations of fish (crustaceans, molluscs, aquatic plants, algae, and other organisms) under
controlled conditions.
The global aquaculture industry is an important source of fish, it recently exceeded in
production world's wild fish catch and continues to grow rapidly. Such growth is met by
conservatism of business-processes and outdated technologies of the most of producers,
which hinders further development. Therefore, it is expected that aquaculture will soon
become a major consumer of innovations and modern information technologies. A number of
innovative technologies are developing with the Aquaculture 4.0 (similar to Industry 4.0) and
"precision aquaculture" approaches. They relate to artificial intelligence, machine learning,
neural networks, patterns recognition, machine vision, Big Data, cloud/edge/fog computing,
etc; they aimed to address the internal challenges of aquaculture in the domains of risks
management, labour productivity, scalability and production growth.
The report is devoted to the most striking approaches and promising innovative solutions
based on the modern IT and (I)IoT in aquaculture.

« Design of Very Compact Planar Filters Using a New Hi-Lo and DGS Techniques for Radar
Applications»

Summary: In this work, a novel miniaturized microstrip low pass filter using a double
Hi-Lo and cross defected ground structure resonators is presented. The Hi-Lo resonator
is placed on the top layer of the structure while the two identical cross DGS resonators
are etched in the ground plane. Each DGS shape consists of two cross heads, which are
connected with a channel slot. The both DGS resonators are electromagnetically
coupled. The proposed filter has been designed simulated, optimized and
manufactured. The filter topology is simulated using HFSS simulator and measured
using Agilent Field Fox NA, N9918A VNA. The both results of the proposed LPF
shown a sharp roll-off (ξ) of 84dB/GHz and exhibit a very low insertion loss in the
pass band of 0.4 dB from DC to 0.9 GHz and it achieves a wide rejection bandwidth
with overall 20 dB attenuation from 1.2 GHz up to 3.2 GHz. The compact low pass
structure occupies an area of (0.37λg × 0.37λg) where λg = 94 mm is the waveguide
length at the cut-off frequency 1 GHz. The carried-out results confirm the effectiveness
of the proposed method.
