In this paper the design and modeling of capacitive shunt switch for k-ka band applications is presented. The proposed model for this design is the crab leg flexure. In order to reduce the squeeze film air damping, the perforated switch with reduced spring constant is designed. Analysis of designed switch has been carried out on the various parameters of the switch such as damping factor, switching time, quality factor and Eigen frequencies in order to design a reliable switch. The results indicate that the obtained pull in voltage is 3.1V for the dielectric gap of 1m and spring constant of 2.95N/m 2 . Switching time is observed as 1.2s and 2.15s for the gap of 1m and 1.5m respectively. The capacitance ratio i.e. Cdown/Cup KHz. Return loss is calculated as-44.85dB at a frequency of 1GHz and -25.68dB at a frequency of 27.5GHz and insertion loss is obtained as -0.0447db at 1GHz and -1.0379dB at 27.5GHz. The maximum peak isolation is observed as -59.5dB at 1GHz frequency and -71dB at 27.5GHz frequency.

<span lang="EN-US">Communication among end users can be based either on wired or wireless technology. Cryptography plays a vital role in ensuring data exchange is secure among end users. Data can be encrypted and decrypted using symmetric or asymmetric key cryptographic techniques to provide confidentiality. In wireless technology, images are exchanged through low-cost wireless peripheral devices, such as radio frequency identification device (RFID), nRF, and ZigBee, that can interface with field programmable gate array (FPGA) among the end users. One of the issues is that data exchange through wireless devices does not offer confidentiality, and subsequently, data can be lost. In this paper, we propose a design and implementation of AES-128 cipher algorithm on an FPGA board for image processing through the <a name="_Hlk107307233"></a>universal asynchronous receiver transmitter (UART) protocol. In this process, the advanced encryption standard (AES) algorithm is used to encrypt and decrypt the image, while the transmitter and receiver designs are implemented on two Xilinx BASYS-3 circuits connected with a ZigBee RF module. The encrypted image uses less memory, such as LUTs (141), and also consumes less chip power (0.0291 w), I/O (0.003), block RAM (0.001 w), data, and logic to provide much higher efficiency than wired communication technology. We also observe that images can be exchanged through the UART protocol with different baud rates in run time.</span>

Cantilever sensors have been the growing attention in last decades and their use as a mass detector. This work presents design, modeling and analysis of Triple coupled cantilever(TCC) sensor using MEMS simulation software Comsol Multiphysics with critical  dimensions of 100μm length,20μm width and 2μm thickness. Simulations were performed based on finite element modeling techniques, where different resonant frequencies were observed for different modes of operation. It is also observed that the resonant frequency of the sensor decreases as some mass is applied on one particular cantilever. The various parameters greatly affecting the performance of TCC such as resonant frequency, dimensions, material and pressure or force applied on it.we also observed that while adding some mass on any one lateral cantilever, the resonant frequency of that respective mode reduced.
