Projects

  • Classification and Identification of LPI Radar Signals. Faculty Advisor: Prof. V. Umapathi Reddy Abstract: The objective of the project was to develop algorithms for intercepting and analyzing LPI radar signals and trying to classify and identify them. Wavelets were used to get the time-frequency profile of the received signal and the LPI signals were classified based on the waveforms. Technologies used: C, Matlab
  • Optimal Power Allocation For Transmitter and Receiver Selection In MIMO Rayleigh Fading Channels Faculty Advisor: Dr. Zafar Ali Khan Abstract: The aim of the project was to find an optimal power allocation method for MIMO channels with the channel information being available at the transmitter Technologies used: Matlab
  • Co-ordinate Interleaved Modulation for MIMO Systems Faculty Advisor: Dr. Zafar Ali Khan Abstract: The objective of the project was to understand and simulate the performance of co-ordinate interleaved modulation for MIMO systems in Rayleigh fading channels. Technologies used: Matlab
  • Space-Time Block Codes Faculty Advisor: Dr. Zafar Ali Khan Abstract: This project involved studying and simulating the space-time block codes for MISO and MIMO systems in Rayleigh fading channels and analyse the performance of the system. Technologies used: Matlab
