MAJOR PROJECTS
Course Projects
1. Title: Feasibility of upgrading indoor lights at UAF.
The project aims at evaluating the best lighting option for indoors at UAF. The various lighting options
were evaluated. The characteristics of Fluorescent, Induction and LED lights were compared and
analyzed. In this, Visualization software was used. By comparison from the available options, the best
option was selected.
2. Title: Role of Artificial Intelligence in Software Engineering.
The project aims at discussing the problems associated with the Software Engineering. The tools and
techniques, and the methods being employed in solving the problems associated with Software
engineering are discussed. And the methods for developing practical software are discussed. And how
Artificial intelligence plays a role in solving the problems is discussed. And the necessity for the fusion
of Artificial intelligence into Software Engineering is clearly explained.
3. Title: Lorenz Model.
The project aims at the study of the Lorenz model and its characteristics. This involved various
Optimization, Visualization and Parallelization techniques on Lorenz Model. And used various
programming languages like Matlab, FORTRAN, UNIX for the code.
4. Title: Design of a Microwave path link.
The project aims at designing a NTSC TV signal link between two sites of distance 13 miles. For this,
the line of sight path calculations, factors causing the attenuation of the signal and cost estimates are
clearly studied. And also performed a general analysis of system to noise ratio and antenna efficiency.
B.Tech Final Project
Title: Implementation of Direct sequence CDMA transmitter and receiver using FPGA for
ADHOC networks.
The project aims at the study of data transmission and reception using Direct sequence CDMA
technique using the concept of “Spread spectrum”. In this, the Direct sequence principle based CDMA
transmitter and receiver is implemented in VHDL for FPGA based SOC solutions. Modelsim Xilinx
Edition 5.8(MXE) tool is used for functional and logic verification. The Xilinx Synthesis Technology
(XST) of Xilinx ISE tool is used for synthesis of transmitter and receiver on FPGAs.
ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENTS
