products which consist of typical instruments for Gas Detection and

Enunciating hazardous scenarios. In this FlexVu UD10/UD20 are fixed

display panels that have capability of taking user inputs and display

parameters on to screen.

Modbus and HART protocols used for monitoring 4-20 mA base digital

current loop as well as providing super visioning interface to

automation application and other Field instruments like 375 Field

communicator

Platform: MSP430FG4618 (A TI Based Microcontroller)

Gurgaon, India

a) Name of the Project: Telematics Control Unit (TCU) development

Project Description: The project is about having a Telematics System

which comprises a central Operations Center and Control unit (CU). The

Operations Center is the system hub. It consists of wireless

communication infrastructure that provides for voice and data

communications with the CU, a Service Center that supports value-added

Telematics services, and a Network Management System (NMS). The TCU is

the in-vehicle component that facilitates the communications between

the multiplicity of vehicles and the network. It contains a Global

System for Mobile Communications (GSM) handheld chipset for voice and

data communications and a Global Positioning System (GPS) chipset to

support location based services.

Platform: Linux (fedora 6), C

Tools: gcc, gdb, gcov

Achievements included:

Worked as a team member in a 20 people team

Worked on various modules of the TCU that interact with the Cellular

Network Controller and als with the Vehicle Interface.

Contributed to Coding, Unit testing, Sub-System Integration.

Worked extensively on multithreaded applications on linux platform.

Participated in System Integration at the client side Hughes Network

Systems, MD, USA.

b) Name of the Project: Femtocell BTS development

Project Description: A Femtocell BTS prototype developed for PSN - Iu

over IP architecture (3GPP).

Platform: Linux (fedora 6), C

Tools: gcc, gdb

Achievements included:

Worked as a team member in a 4 people team

Acquired knowledge of 3G- RANAP stack

Developed RANAP stack for Control plane interface

Developed APIs for RANAP interfacing with SIGTRAN stack.

Led the development activities.

C) Name of the Project: SBSS (Satellite Base Station Sub-System)

Project Description: The SBSS Project develops Mobile Satellite

functionalities to be used by two major Hughes Network Systems Clients,

MSV and Terrestar. As a part of a 40 member MSV team I worked for the

Satellite Adaptation Gateway (SAG) module.

Satellite Adaptation Gateway implements TCP Performance Enhancing Proxy

(PEP), UMTS Satellite adapted Packet Data Convergence layer (PDCP) and

Convergence Sublayer to integrate PEP/PDCP with the 3GPP GTP-U

protocol. The large propagation delay of a geostationary satellite

link, as in Mobile SAT network, limits application performance. The TCP

PEP is used to enhance data transmission performance over the Satellite

link for Transmission Control Protocol (TCP).

PDCP implements protocol header compression using ROHC and IPHC RFC

standards. It also implements zero-byte header compression for VOIP

packets.

Platform: Linux (fedora 6), C

Tools: gcc, gdb

Achievements included:

Worked as a team member in a 5 people team

Acquired knowledge of TCP PEP and VoIP

Developed software for configuration part of the project and test

driver in C using socket

Developed integration test plan document for the entire system

Led the integration testing
