ACADEMIC PROJECTS

Design of a preemptive Real-time Operating System (Team size: 3) Spring 2013

Involved in writing RTOS which featured a Priority based scheduler with 8 priority levels. Implemented priority inheritance so that lower priority task does not block higher priority task. learnt about switching between co-operative and pre-emptive schedulers, critical section execution (for interrupts) and the associated latency over-heads.

Rover with IR Triangulation-Based Navigation (Team size: 3) Spring 2013

Involved with designing a robot platform that consisted of controller and rover module. Designed the controller module which maintains sync between the sensor and the rover. Designed hardware to detect IR beacon stations for triangulation algorithm. This project helped me collaborate with different teams that were involved, was the point of contact for hardware design and enjoyed working on this project.

Design of end to end Mobile Communication System (Team size: 3) Fall 2013

Involved with designing a Modulator at user terminal. Simulated MIMO channel which is subjected to Rician flat fading. Involved in designing Demodulator using QPSK Modulation. This project helped me understand working of end to end Mobile Communication in real world.

TCP/IP packet sniffing using Wireshark (Team size: 1) Spring 2013

Observed the packets generated and received between host and target on a controlled network using Wireshark. Traced the route from source to destination and determined number of hops to reach destination and percentage loss of packets. Observed Req/ARP/Ack/SYNC packets using Wireshark.

Design of high speed and low noise 16 bit adder (Team size: 1) Fall 2013

Designed 16 bit adder to meet the speed and noise specifications using the appropriate architecture and logic family after doing literature survey of different architectures and logic families available. Designed Schematic and Layout on Cadence software. Observed the design of circuit at system level using logic design fundamentals.

Audio Frequency Signal Generator and Network Scalar Analyzer (Team size: 3) Fall 2012

Involved with designing a signal generator that generates four different signals of max

Amp 10v and frequency 45 KHz by configuring a 256 bit DAC. Was also involved in parsing the data that the user entered through user interface. Calibrated any offset that was involved in generating signals. The generated signals was then given to device under test (DuT) and the response was captured using rectifier and averaging circuits.

Low Cost Mechanically Scanned Alphanumeric Laser Projector for Enhanced Display (Team size: 4)

Spring 2012

Involved with designing Laser Projector that projects the required message over a long distance using a single laser source. Was also involved in mounting octagonal mirror assembly which reflects the Laser source to desired screen.Interfaced keypad with microcontroller that provided us with options such as mirror alignment, an alternate display etc.Interfaced LCD which was used as an alternate display.
