ACADEMIC PROJECTS

§ Ongoing project on “Reactively loaded Antenna Array Design using FEKO and CST”

Independently working on Reactively loaded Antenna Array Design by taking 6 wire antennas separated by half wavelength and half wavelength long. Measuring the mutual Impedances and with help of FEKO and CST tool trying to achieve max. Gain by changing the Reactance for an arbitrary direction for N port antenna system.

§ LNA design verification with ADS and smith chart for the matching network. § Independent researched on “MIMO antennas”, “Artificial Transmission Lines”, “2–W W-band GaN

Travelling Wave Amplifier with 25 GHz Bandwidth” § Analyzed Address Resolution Protocol, FTP, HTTP, SMTP and TELNET with Wireshark and

Performance analysis of the Ethernet Network with Opnet § Design a Fiber optic splitter using opti-system.

Simulate the fiber length of 100m to 1Km with and without splitter and verified the results from the eye diagram that indicates, loss for the splitter is less when splitter is present, Bit error rate was also not significant.

§ Design of Encoder and Viterbi Decoder for convolution code using MATLAB. § Built an AUTO. CHANGE OVER PANEL with PLC § Designed a Tire of AUDI A-6 in Solidworks § SIX Frogs projects with DMAIC model
