Academic Projects

Performance Study of Spatial Multiplexing in the presence of Polarization Diversity: A

MIMO wireless system with dual polarized antennas is developed in MATLAB and symbol

error rate is plotted against signal-to-noise ratio through simulation. Different simulation results

are compared and conclusions are drawn.

Study of LTE – SON with features: Studied about Automatic Neighbor Relation (ANR),

Mobility Robustness Optimization (MRO) and Minimizations of Drive Tests (MDT) and related

issues.

Capturing Network Traffic and analyzing network trace and network protocols: This

project included capture of live network traffic, its network trace analysis and deduction of

various protocol parameters and performance.

System Level Design for a Mobile Wireless User Terminal: A QPSK modulator-demodulator

is designed using block phase estimation algorithm under the influence of Rician Flat fading.

Wireless Channel Capacity Analysis: Completed study and simulation of fading versus static

channel and power allocation schemes for optimizing channel capacity for CDMA 2000 & IS-95.
