A cocoyam planter was designed, fabricated and evaluated for performance. The major components of the planter are hopper, metering system, ridging disc, furrow opening disc, furrow covering disc and chain and sprocket ...

This project was carried out to analyse the performance of Satellite Television Receive Only (TVRO) communication systems in terms of the propagation loss in the C-band (6/4 GHz) frequencies. A 3.0m parabolic dish was ...

The measurement of the vertical profiles of rainfall parameters such as drop size distribution, rain rate, liquid water content, fall velocity and radar reflectivity were carried out by using Micro Rain Radar in 2006 and ...

Natural radioactivity was measured in twenty samples of well water collected from hand dug wells and drilled wells (boreholes) from Ogun State, Southwestern Nigeria with a view to provide baseline data on radioactivity ...

The strong impact of rain on satellite-based telecommunication systems makes the prediction of rain induced propagation impairments (such as attenuation and interference) using the cumulative distribution of the point ...

The total atmospheric absorption due to oxygen and water vapour in the frequency range, 1O-350GHz was evaluated employing Liebe's empirical model. The basic data include monthly mean meteorological parameters of pressure, ...

A precise temperature monitoring system in the range 50-1350uC using Radio Telemetry as a means of signal transmission has been designed and constructed. It consists of a sensitive thermocouple amplifier with active cold ...

Investigation was conducted to evaluate the performance of the locally the determination of fabricated screw expeller used for the experiment. It was found that applied pressure was the main factor influencing the performance ...

This work presents an investigation of the amount of signal depolarisation experienced by terrestrial and earth-space communication systems during the passage of linearly polarized (horizontal and vertical) radio waves ...

The study was carried out to quantitatively analyze the economic analysis of Kolanut farming in Odigbo, Ifedore and Akure North, Local Government area of Ondo State, Nigeria. Specifically, characteristics the study examined ...
