ENGINEERING PROJECT EXPERIENCE: Project title: Inter Vehicular Communications to avoid Collision during Changing of Lanes

Vehicle to vehicle and vehicle to Infrastructure communications is implemented in this project. Every vehicle is given a specific range in order to communicate with the other vehicle.

802.11 Wireless Protocol is used for communication between vehicles and to generate a warning signal when they are dangerously closer.

MATLAB/Simulink based simulation environment is used to create the real time scenario of vehicles.

Project title: Enhanced S-MAC (Sensor-MAC) protocol to improve the power efficiency Modified the S-MAC by redesigning the sync protocol and making it adaptive to a variable duty cycle for listening window.

Clock drift is kept constant and the fastest node is considered to be the base node in order to overcome the synchronization problem. Adaptive listening scheduler and robust priority medium access are implemented to increase the energy efficiency.

Wireless sensor network containing two subnets and a common node are simulated using the visual C++ based simulation environment.

Project title: Simulation of EDGE system and OFDM system over Wireless Multipath Channel Wrote a MATLAB code for 8-PSK transmitter and passed through exponentially decaying multipath channel which randomly updates for every 100 bits.

Received signal is equalized using DFE and DDFSE criteria to remove multipath affects and BER is calculated and compared for different SNR. MATLAB and SIMULINK has been used as a platform and Code composer Studio is used for generating the auto code.

Project title: Implementing the different Image Processing techniques using MATLAB

Square averaging Smoothing filter & order statistic filter of user selected side length is implemented using MATLAB.

Wiener filter, constrained least square filtering and Multi resolution analysis is also implemented using MATLAB.

The noise spikes in a noisy image is detected and a filter is developed to remove the noise at particular co-ordinates.

Deblurring the blurred image using the inverse filtering is also implemented in MATLAB. Image compression is also done using the DCT algorithm. All these techniques are implemented so as to remove the noise from the image and also to compare between different techniques to see which one removes the noise to a great extent. The results are compared with the MATLAB programming that is done using the Image processing tool box. Project title: 2-D Vehicle tracking using Kalman filter

Extended Kalman filter is implemented using MATLAB to detect and track vehicles distance and velocity. The new measurements are processed in real time.

The observation equation is linearized by taking the Jacobian of the Range and the Bearing.

MMSE of the estimated values is plotted so as to evaluate the performance of the Kalman Filter

Vignan’s Institute of Information Technology GPA: 3.8 May 2014 Project title: Automation of street lights by vehicle movement

Prototype of the project is developed using the LM358 Sensors and 8051 Microcontroller. MAX232 is used as interface. Keil uVision software is used to dump the code into the 8051 micro controller.

Microcontroller is programmed to provide different duty cycle at different traffic density conditions so as to increase the power efficiency. GSM technology is used to alert the crew whenever there is any failure of the street light.

Embedded C language is used to program the microcontroller. PCB board is designed from start to finish by following all the required steps

PUBLICATIONS Project title: Virtual Reality museum of Consumer Technologies We built a prototype of virtual museum of the consumer technologies to explore this with the intention of prompting memories of using past technologies in the visitors. The prototype was created using the Janus VR browser and evaluated on a 2D display by 7 young adult users. It successfully prompted memories in all of the evaluators and the all users rated the pleasure of touring the museum neutral or better.
