This paper presents a novel and compact wideband Doherty power amplifier (PA) architecture with a broadband characteristic. An improved impedance configuration is introduced in the load modulation network (LMN) to provide wider bandwidth. As well as it eliminates the need for an output impedance matching network (IMN). Hence the designed device is compact. This approach is a synthesis of key concepts derived from the conventional Doherty PA and the analysis of LMN. For the proposed Doherty PA architecture analytical solution and its thorough analysis are presented. A prototype is designed using commercial GaN transistors that exhibit more than 18% fractional bandwidth in the frequency spectrum from 3.07 to 3.68 GHz. It has been observed that the proposed DPA provides an average output power of 37.0-38.0 dBm with 38.0-45.0% efficiency. Furthermore, it supports a peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) of 6 dB with an efficiency of 54-68% and peak power of 43.0-44.0 dBm. Proposed Doherty PA also achieved adjacent channel leakage ratio (ACLR) of −32 dBc (without any linearization techniques), output third order intercept (TOI) at 50 dBm and input TOI at 39 dBm.

The software systems usually include some defects that will show adverse effects on the use of the application. Software fault-prone module will help software professionals to release the software within given time and cost. Software industries have to spend most of the budget in the testing phase only. If the fault-prone software modules are identified before testing phase, the limited testing resources will be allocated to the fault-prone modules to reduce the cost. In this paper, we have proposed a novel approach that leverages deep learning techniques to classify the software modules into faulty and non-faulty modules using learning automata. The deep learning model is trained using learning automata. We have validated our proposed approach using publicly available data set taken from public repository. We have also applied over sampling techniques on four data sets to balance the data set in order to obtain better performance measures. We have compared the results of proposed approaches with some existing models and we found our proposed approach is able to provide better prediction performance.

The success of a country in dealing closely with the challenges of globalization has been linked to the innovation created by the nation's human resources. Indonesia continues to improve the various innovations needed to overcome the challenges ahead, such as the national defense issue. According to the national defense system that has been widely recognized was connected to the concept of a Triple Helix which consists of government, industries and academics. The three were highly interactive, particularly in the field of human resource quality, to achieve the self-reliant of the Indonesia defense industry. Self-reliance will be achieved if the national defense human resource is capable of mastering defense knowledge and technology. Human resource development aims to empower all Indonesian citizens to be qualified and proactive in responding to the challenges of globalization. Furthermore, the process of human resource development using the approach by a collaborative model to integrate the elements in the Triple Helix. Through a collaboration model, the Triple Helix elements will be effective by building the same vision of working and learning to form a harmonious practice. This concept will provide leadership skills and flexibility to manage risks and solve problems professionally for national human resources. Professionalism itself is known as the quality of knowledge and expertise possessed to carry out its tasks to be measured by four dimensions, namely qualification, competence, performance and discipline. The competency dimensions must be held by national defense human resources such as managerial, sociocultural and technical competencies. As a result, the focus of integrated human resource development is becoming important, strategic and serious in terms of robust defense to be able to achieve the self-reliant of the Indonesian defense industry.

Assessment of manufacturing readiness in an industry can be done using the MRL scale that appropriates to apply in the military and commercial industry. The assessment criteria according to the US Department of Defense (DoD) can be adjusted to the process carried out by the intended industry. The implementation of MRL assessment helps to manage risk in the manufacturing process by improving the work performance to increase the quality product, reducing cycle time, save the cost production and as a result MRL provide the scale of manufacturing readiness. This research conducting the study of the initial approach by analysis of the manufacturing readiness level, especially for the defense industry in Indonesia.

The analysis with MRL will help the stakeholder also the government to develop the defense industry in the future. Therefore, this research directly contributes to broadening knowledge of the importance of the defense industry to have the MRL assessment by understanding each process of its.

Indonesia must be able to develop defense technology capacity, which depends on the ability to strengthen the national defense industries. The role of a technology audit is crucial for the advancement of the Indonesia defense industry to provide a holistic assessment of product quality of the domestic defense industry. It is important to understand that technology audits play a role in all areas from the start to the end of the life cycle of defense equipment, especially the main weapon system. However, Indonesia still does not have the specific tools of auditing technology to develop defense technology in line with the characteristics of the country’s defense system. On the other hand, technology audits process is expected to bring out the transparency and benchmarks as technological advances comparison owned by the Indonesia defense industry to be in the Global Supply Chain Through the result of the Defense Technology Audit, the stakeholders will get systematic maps of the defense industry’s capabilities, development and production capacity according to the availability of resources and objectives to be achieved. This research aims to support and accelerate the process of developing defense technology towards the self-reliant of the national defense industry through innovation in the field of technology audits. Furthermore, the innovations presented in this paper provide ideas and designs to form the basis of conceptual design to produce technology audit instruments for defense products. The research will describe various aspects that influence the defense technology audit process which will develop based on secondary data, such as prevailing policies and supporting literature elaborate with the tools of Technology Readiness Level and Manufacturing Readiness Level.

Fighter aircraft technology has continued to experience rapid development in recent decades. Nowadays the development of fighter aircraft has reached the fifth generation where stealth technology is one of the key technologies. The use of composite materials is a step used to increase the stealth technology of fighter aircraft. Composite technology also experiencing rapid development and has become a major part of the fighter aircraft structure with current usage which has reached 40 %. Indonesia as a developing country currently developing a fighter aircraft with stealth technology as one of the deterrent effects for facing threats that can come at any time. In development, composite technology is one of the technologies that are the focus of technological mastery. Although it is a complicated technology, it does not mean that Indonesia cannot master composite technology well. With the opportunities they have, those are human resources, equipment facilities, market opportunities, and previous experience. However, there are challenges that must be faced, namely the inability of the domestic industry to be able to produce because of new technology and the level of technological readiness that has not been reached. For this reason, mastery of composite technology is focused on mastery of raw material technology and processing technology which are important factors that must be mastered first.

One of the principles used as a reference in the implementation of the defense industry is self-reliance, self-reliance in defense industry coincides with the development of a strong foundation to maintain sustainability and prevent the collapse of a country, Indonesia and South Korea in 2009 signed a joint development cooperation related to the development of 4.5 generation fighter aircraft, in the process defense technology acquisition, the availability of technology is the main requirement in development, but in its development there are often major problems such as the licensing of technology, especially the Critical Technology Element (CTE) which is a key technology that plays an important role in technological development.
