INDIVIDUAL PROBLEM STUDY
COMSOL Multiphysics to simulate and optimize Graphene based Plasmonic Transceiver for
Tera hertz band communication – Fall 2014
• Individual Research Problem
• Investigated Plasmonic effects expected in the 2DEG of High Electron Mobility
Transistor (HEMT) at Terahertz band frequencies
PROJECTS
Electronic Lock Code-Summer 2014
• Electronic Locking System built using Xilinx Spartan 3E-100 FPGA board
Packet Prioritization of Video Data for Energy Efficient Transmission-Spring 2014
• Proposed a framework which discusses physical layer centric solutions such as power
control, system level solutions such as dynamic power management, packet prioritization
for increasing efficiency of the system
• Framework formulated as a Markov Decision Process (MDP)
MIMO technique in LTE and LTE Advanced standards-Spring 2014
• Survey on Spatial Multiplexing, LTE Downlink, LTE Uplink and MIMO for LTE-A
Quorum Sensing Enabled Diffusion based Molecular Communication – Spring 2014
• Concept of Quorum Sensing, Sensor Capacity Analysis, Signal Amplification, Diffusion
based Noise, Bio Nano Robots
Performance Improvement in OFDM system by Peak to Average Power reduction – Fall 2013
• Implemented the following techniques for PAPR reduction : Clipping, Selective
Mapping
Palm Print Recognition, Fall 2012/Spring 2013 –Final Year Project
• Performed image acquisition, pre processing, feature extraction, matching of an image to
get results successfully
• Used Center symmetric local binary pattern(CSLBP), Singular Value
Decomposition(SVD),
Diagonal Matrix, Gaussian Pyramid for feature extraction as a part of software development
• Developed a hardware model for capturing palm images for creating our own database
Signature Recognition System -Spring 2012
• Used a curvature-based corner detector that detected both fine and coarse features
accurately at low computational cost
• Used the concept of Euclidian distance in the feature space between the claimed signature
and the template
• Concluded that by using a higher dimensional feature space and incorporating dynamic
information gathered during the time of signature can also improve the performance.
Battery Charger- Fall 2011
• Battery charger is designed for overcharge protection and deep discharge protection
