Video over Relay based
Cellular Networks
|
Recent wireless standards, such as 4G LTE and
IEEE 802.16-m, have adopted relays as a cost effective solution
for improving the coverage as well as the the
throughput. The objective of this project is to build a
simplified relay based cellular network using a software of
student’s choice, then analyze the performance of Video traffic
over such a network.

Design and implementation of
an automated conveyor line
|
To design and implement a conveyor line for
filling tablets in bottles. Bottles will be moved in the line,
filled with tablets, moved on and next will be processed and so
on. The number of tablet can be programmed as required.

Designing transceiver for
power line communication
|
The project is to design a system of circuits
to communicate over power lines. it can be within a single house
or in a network of houses depending on the power lines system
arrangement

Digitally Controlled Dual Band
RF Power Meter
|
This project aims at developing a prototype
of a digitally controlled dual-band RF power meter. Commercial
RF circuits will be used to build the system level architecture
of the RF front-end. This architecture will be optimized through
simulations. An envelope detector and a microcontroller board
will be added. The microcontroller board will be
programmed to provide a display of the measured signal strength.
Finally, the prototype will be used to perform measurements of
wireless signal strength.

Knowledge of communication
systems, EE441 / EE407 will be useful.

Design and
Implementation of a Multifunction Protective Relay
|
Overcurrent relays are the most common
type of protective relays. They are being used for protecting
Feeders, Motors, Generators, Transformers,…etc. Microcontrollers
or real time platforms are being used nowadays by all
manufacturers for realizing such relays.
In this project, a prototype is to be
designed, implemented, and tested for such relay with
added functions such as Metering, negative sequence protection
and overload protection.

Wireless Jamming System
|
In this project, a wireless jamming system
will be designed based on commercial off-the-shelf circuits.
This includes the design of a noise source, the system level
design of the RF front end. Also, simulations of the effects of
the interferences on the performance of several wireless
communication standards will be carried out. A prototype will be
assembled and tested.

Wireless Tracking of a Moving
Vehicle
|
In this project the team will
develop a wireless platform for tracking the movement of a
moving target (a remote controlled car/quad-rotor). The wireless
based tracking platform will consist of an inertial measurement
unit (IMU) that is wireless compatible with a ZigBee
transceiver. The team will program the modules, integrate them
within the moving target, and develop a graphical user interface
(GUI) using MATLAB or C to plot the trajectory of the moving
target. |

Design and implementation for
Maximum Power Point Tracking for PV generator
|
It is about maximizing the output of a Loaded
Photovoltaique Generator. The Maximum Power Point Tracking
(MPPT) system is an online tracker to extract the highest
possible power through switching devices that control the
generator output operating voltage of the PV generator. SIMULINK
simulation will be the base of the design of the required
circuit followed by a laboratory implementation and testing of
the design.

The background will be given
during the regular meeting

A Global Navigation Satellite
System (GNSS) Code Generator
|
In this project, the students will design
and implement a variable GNSS code generator based on a
predefined code set (Gold Codes, Kasami, Binary Offset Carrier
–BOC) and based on some a selection criteria, the codes will be
generated and output from the FPGA board. The design will be
made using Verilog HDL, and will be synthesized on the FPGA
board. The spectrum of the various codes will be then
investigated as well.
