ACADEMIC PROJECTS
RF Measurements: Semester long course involved in circuit design, EM simulation, assembly and measurement of circuits used in RF designs. Microstrip based passives were designed on 1.52 mm thick Rogers 3035 substrate.
Performed gain, power and noise figure measurements for an RF amplifier at 2.5GHz using vector network analyzer and noise figure meter at 0.1, 0.5 and 1.0 GHz.
Performed conversion loss measurements for RF mixers and analyzed the effect of resolution bandwidth on noise.
Microstrip Resonator Design
Designed single and double stub resonator on RogersO3035 substrate at 2.5GHz.
Wilkinson Power Divider
Designed a 3-dB microstrip Wilkinson power divider on FR-4 at 2.5GHz frequency with <1 dB of insertion loss.
Microstrip Filter Design
Designed a Chebyshev 0.5dB equi-ripple low pass filter on FR-4 substrate at 2.5GHz cut-off frequency.
Designed a 3-dB maximally flat Butterworth low pass filter on FR-4 substrate at 2.5GHz cut-off frequency.
Dipole Antenna Design
Designed two identical half-wave dipole antennae, resonant at 2.5GHz and measured the received power sourced from signal generator.
Analyzed the RF power at the receiver linear and cross-polarization by varying the distance between the antenna.
RF Systems - Remote Sensing of Ice Sheets
Implemented an RF system that detects and communicates conditions of ice sheets in the polar region by dynamically monitoring their variation in size/location using RADAR and two communication systems (14.475 GHz) in AWR VSS that also measured various RF Link Budget parameters with cascade analysis and yield analysis.
WORK EXPERIENCE
