Academic Projects
1. Smart Home Control System for People with Special Needs Based on Arduino Platform
• Design a kit that constructs standalone embedded system board on android ADK.
• Established Communication between ADK and Android Mobile Device.
• Implemented the method of automation system for tracking and commanding home appliances through tablet or android phone.
2. Discrete Wavelet Transform Approach for Image Registration Using Adaptive Polar Transform
• Translation Estimate is done faster by combining Gabor feature extraction and discrete wavelet transform.
• Scale invariant feature transform is used along with DWT to enhance the result.
• Used R-projection, Phi-projection and Adaptive Polar Transform to improve the image resolution. 3. Wireless Electronic Notice Board Using GSM Communication System
• Designed a SMS driven automatic display board.
• Microcontroller receives the SMS, validates the sending mobile identification number and displays the desired information.
4. Design and Simulate a Multi User Code Division Multiple Access Communication System with Forward Error Correction Code
• Analyzed the performance of multiuser CDMA system with Forward error correction code.
• Modulation techniques were used to check the performance of BPSK, QPSK, and 8PSK.
• Signal to noise ratio, Bit Error rate for matched Filter, decorrelator and MMSE multi user detector were estimated using Matlab
