Receiver system Integration Nov 2017

• Validated a super heterodyne receiver (RF receiver subsystem).

• Performed various measurements such as calculating the gain of the amplifier, insertion loss of cables, power measurements at different points on the receiver.

• Verified the performance of the receiver with antenna received input signals. RF Coupled Line Bandpass Filter Design Nov 2017

• Designed a 3rd order coupled line bandpass filter on ADS with a center frequency of 2.1GHz. Chebyshev filter model was used.

• Computed the design parameters like the fractional Bandwidth, Order of the filter, even and odd mode impedences of the coupled line sections.

• Used LineCalc to calculate the width and spacing of the coupled line sections. The filter design was fabricated and measured the insertion loss at 2.1GHz and out of band attenuation of the filter at 1.7GHz using VNA. Impedance Matching Oct 2017

• Designed a distributed microstrip matching circuit to match a complex load to a 50ohm load using stubs and tried to achieve a good 10dB return loss bandwidth at a frequency of 2GHz.

• The design was simulated on ADS and was fabricated and the S11 parameter was measured using VNA. Performance evaluation of a digital communication system through MATLAB simulations Jan 2017

• Conducted a performance evaluation of a digital communication system in presence of noise.

• A system in AWGN channel with QPSK modulation and a rectangular pulse shaping filter was used.

• Created plots of bit error rate versus signal to noise ratio, power versus time, constellation plot, polar plot and Eye diagram. Synchronization and demodulation of a transmitted unknown signal Feb 2017 Developed a MATLAB code to detect a transmitted unknown BPSK signal by performing synchronization in time, frequency and phase. Demodulated the signal to obtain the transmitted message. Design and Testing of RF components, Wireless Circuits and Systems Lab, USF Aug 2017-Dec 2017

• Modeling and simulation of Wireless systems using ADS.

• Circuit characterization with a vector network Analyzer.

• Designed a Lumped element low pass filter for a cut off frequency of 100MHz.

• Designed a impedance matching circuit to match a real load of 110ohm to a 50ohm load.

• Simulated and measured the insertion loss, coupling and isolation of a microstrip coupled line coupler using VNA.

• Characterized a MINI CIRCUITS ZEM 4300 mixer and used VNA to measure the LO-IF isolation, RF-IF isolation thus calculated the conversion loss of the mixer.

• Determined the return loss of a Cushcraft antenna as a function of frequency and also measured the resonant frequency.

• Designed a Microstrip Patch antenna for a resonant frequency of 2.05GHz. Experience
