ACADEMIC PROFILE
Bachelor of Technology from College of Engineering Trivandrum, University
of Kerala, May 2008
Major - Electronics and Communication Engineering
ACADEMIC PROJECTS
Title : Secure Voice Transmission System
Duration : Jan '07 - Jun '07
Guide : Prof. G S Chandini, Electronics and
Communication Engineering, CET
Brief Overview :
The product is a digital speech security system capable of preventing
eavesdropping on information signals between the transmitter and receiver.
It uses simple ICs and the digital encryption is done using a pseudo-random
noise generator. The highly cost effective system finds applications in
intercoms in hotels and the further expansion in the work is aimed at the
inclusion of programmable devices at the hardware level.
Title : Sub-threshold CMOS Low Noise Amplifier
Duration : Jul '07 - May '08
Project Guide : Dr. M R Baiju, Professor, Electronics and Communication
Engineering, CET
Brief Overview :
This project presents a 1GHz ultra low power CMOS Low Noise Amplifier
(LNA) design in sub-threshold region based on a source degenerated cascode
topology. At 0.20 W DC power consumption and power supply of 1.0V, this LNA
has a power gain of 27.59dB and noise figure of 6.0dB. Compared to existing
subthreshold biased LNAs, the proposed design achieves a very high power
gain to DC power consumption ratio of 137.95dB/mW.
SCHOLASTIC ACHIEVEMENTS
. Secured 11th rank among more than 5 lakh students in Kerala State in the
Secondary School Leaving Certificate examination 2002.
. 0.1% merit in Chemistry for All India Senior School Certificate
Examination 2004.
. Achieved 138th rank among over 3 lakh aspirants of the Kerala State
Engineering Entrance Examination.
