Article Synopsis
  • Preauricular sinus is a congenital ear defect arising from incomplete fusion of certain tissue structures and is relatively common.
  • In Malaysia, tuberculosis (TB) poses a serious public health issue, often causing chronic ailments and complicating wound healing, with pulmonary TB being the most prevalent.
  • The management of three patients with recurrent tuberculous preauricular sinus abscesses highlights the importance of testing for TB, starting anti-tuberculous treatment, and planning for elective sinus excision to prevent further infections after the patient recovers.

An optical decoding technique is proposed for a spectral-amplitude-coding-optical code division multiple access, namely, the AND subtraction technique. The theory is being elaborated and experimental results have been done by comparing a double-weight code against the existing code, Hadamard. We have proved that the and subtraction technique gives better bit error rate performance than the conventional complementary subtraction technique against the received power level.

We experimentally demonstrate a simple method for generating a multiwavelength Brillouin comb by utilizing a linear cavity of hybrid Brillouin-erbium fiber lasers (BEFLs). The optimization of Brillouin pump wavelength, power, and erbium gain played a significant role in determining the maximum number of Brillouin Stokes signals generated. Simultaneous and stable multiple-wavelength laser output of 22 lines with 10.
