Southern Methodist University, Dallas, Tx
. Worked as Technical Student Assistant for Information Processing at
Undergraduate Enrollment Division, SMU.
PROJECTS AND PRESENTATIONS
. Analysis of Data Frames using ETHEREAL Protocol Analyzer:
Using Ethereal Sniffer I have presented a report on analysis of Data
Frames in Internet Protocols where I observed the transmission of packets
from one location to another.
. Techniques to enhance data rates in GPRS/EDGE:
In this paper I could learn the modulation techniques like 8PSK, MIMO,
Spatial Multiplexing, OFDM and 64QAM to enhance data rates in GPRS/EDGE.
. Mobile Wimax:
Architecture and logical functionality of mobile Wimax is studied through
this paper.
