PROJECTS UNDERTAKEN

Mock Implementation of a Data Communication Network for Maryland Education System :

The main objective of the project was to provide secure administrative computing service to the different offices, to update to a WAN in place of all the interconnected LANs ,to provide versatile information processing to the different users and also to maintain the scalability of the project. For this project I have worked with Cisco 2621 Ethernet Router 2 10/100 ,Etherfast II 24 port switch , Etherfast 20-port hub and CAT 5 cables.

(Networking Project)

Designing of a Digital Communication System: Using Matlab, designed the various parts of a digital communication system, like the source encoder, channel encoder, the FSK modulator and similarly in the detector part the source decoder and the channel decoder. (Communication Engineering Project)

Compression and Decompression of Sound signal: Compressed and decompressed a .20 second .wav signal using the concept of Upsampling and Down Sampling (Filterbanks). (Using Matlab) (Advanced DSP Project)

Cracking The Wired Equivalent Privacy Key (WEP) Key : In this project I cracked a predefined Wired equivalent Protocol defined in IEEE 802.11 (set by the Professor) by using the softwares like Airdump and the operating system BackTrack 4.0 (Wireless Network Security Project)
