PROJECTS
Performance comparison of several modulation methods using theoretical estimates and simulations: Used MATLAB, to compare all digital modulation methods on the factors of Bit Error Rate and Symbol error rate. The BW efficiency, spectral efficiency and energy efficiency were calculated as part of the inferential reasoning of the performance comparison of the different digital modulation methods.
Design of Wireless Voice Telephony Service communication system employing CDMA: Design parameters involved were fading model, channel capacity, cell radius and layout and modulation technique.
Line Follower Robot using P89C51RD2 and Sunspot Java : An electromechanical setup implementing H-Bridge (L293D), pulse width modulation, and IR sensor interfacing using the P89C51RD2 microcontroller with programming carried out in C using Keil Compiler. Another version of the line follower robot was implemented using NXT light sensors and Sunspot JAVA.
Implementation of Centralised and Distributed Peer to Peer file sharing System: Developed a centralized and distributed system consisting of a server-client architecture wherein text files are stored in the system repository and are queried by any of the peers registered with the system. The architecture was implemented in JAVA using Netbeans IDE.
Automatic formation of Single-Hop networks: Developed a single hop network consisting of a root node and other child sensor nodes that join the network, thereby creating a single-hop broadcast network using both Micaz and Telosb wireless sensor networks. The programming was done on Tiny OS using NesC programming Language.
RFID Tracking System: Designed an automatic data capture space technique which detects the position of an RFID tag and the resultant data is communicated to an RFID receiver which is located on the prime data processing center using wireless communication techniques.
LAN modeling using OPNET: Evaluated the Ethernet load, Ethernet delay and link performance and utilization in different networks simulated using OPNET software for computer network performance.
Case Study on Embedded control system: Designed an Embedded Web server employing ATmega128 microcontroller implementing TCP/Ip protocol interfaced with an Ethernet controller that displays data received on a client that can host a web browser system that had a platoform dependent GUI. Such an embedded system can be used to display information from a integrated home security system such as temperature sensors, water level detectors, smoke detectors etc.. The hardware consisted of the ATMEL mega128 microcontroller with an AVR STK 500 programmable board, an Ethernet controller comprising of a Crystal LAN IC CS8900A(with on chip RAM). The input unit is a any kind of detector unit which gives its inputs to the micro. The data processing unit in the micro is received by the Ethernet controller which does the network configuration for the laptop to which it is connected and on which the final data has to be displayed. The Ethernet controller is capable of receiving and filtering all data packets from the client computer. The microcontroller unit containts TCP/IP stack amd the embedded HTTP server. The TCP/IP stack receives and transmits whenever a packet is sent. Here we can calculate the data packet length and data header. Also, we can assign the MAC and IP address to the microcontroller. For testing we can even ping the microcontroller from our configured laptop. The programming which includes the data processing as well as GUI development can be done in C.
