The advancement of physics has often relied on extending observational capabilities beyond natural limits. Innovations like Galileo’s pendulum clock enabled precise time measurement, laying the foundation for Newtonian mechanics. The microscope and telescope, developed around the same era, expanded our view of the micro and macro worlds. The limitations of these instruments, once deemed fundamental,…
This blog presents a novel unambiguous monopulse direction-finding antenna system developed at NUST-SEECS. The proposed system is not only simple in structure, compared to state-of-the-art, but also have polarization reconfigurability feature. I. Background: Monopulse radars are used widely to measure the distance, speed, and angle of arrival of targets at a high speed of operation,…
Can efficiency and privacy in smart device be improved? Dr. Syed Ali Hassan at NUST utilised the power of Federated Learning and Over-the-Air techniques to enhance edge communication for 6G networks. Edge Communication: Machine learning (ML) is remarkably transforming our world, enabling machines to learn from data and make intelligent decisions. This technology is not…
In the face of increasing environmental concerns, the construction industry is transforming sustainable and eco-friendly practices. The cities and communities heavily rely on reinforced concrete structures for various infrastructure projects due to their durability and strength. One promising avenue is the utilization of Recycled Aggregate Concrete (RAC), which minimizes the environmental impact by reducing the…
Pakistan is rich with a wealth of diverse mineral resources, including reserves of metals like copper, iron and gold and non-metallic reserves like marble and gypsum. These are essential resources for various industrial and technological advancements in the twenty-first century. According to recent estimates by geological survey of Pakistan a total value of over $6…
Understanding Biohydrogen Production Biohydrogen production refers to the generation of hydrogen gas through biological processes. This method is considered environmentally friendly compared to conventional hydrogen production methods that rely on fossil fuels. Among the various biological routes, dark fermentation and photo-fermentation are two key processes. Dark fermentation, typically performed by bacteria, produces hydrogen without the…
