WORK EXPERIENCE Prototype design of GPS locating device, iTag, Los Angeles, CA Feb10-Present Analyzed the business requirements and researched various possible technologies. Based on research, narrowed the technologies to GPS and GSM to achieve the desired function. Selected the components and modules based on size, cost and features. Developed program to exchange SMS between cell-phone and server. Developed program to exchange AT commands between tracking device and server on Field Programmable Gate-Array (FPGA) using Verilog and Python. Designed a solar-based power source for the device to make it self-sufficient and long lasting. Data collection, analysis and network planning, Korea Telecom, Stony Brook NY. Aug09-Sep09 Analyzed the floor plan of CEWIT building and the capabilities of KT's WiBro femto access points. Based on the analysis, selected locations for the access points. Conducted data collection and measured RSSI and Path Loss for each of the locations. Based on the results of data collection, proposed the optimum number of access points needed to cover the entire building and parking lot. Ethernet 802.3 MAC Transmitter, CDAC India Studied the Ethernet IEEE 802.3 MAC layer Recognized the different modules and signals required for the architecture. Defined and designed the state machines for the Ethernet MAC transmitter Programmed the transmitter in Verilog using Xilinx ModelSim and Xilinx ISE. Jun08-Aug08

Lab Consultant, Residential Computing Centre, Campus Residences, Stony Brook NY Jun09-Dec09 Managed five computing labs of 20 machines each by helping students with software difficulties. Set up the lab with projectors for different presentations Ran the lab printer, scanner and ensured smooth network. Data Entry, Campus Residences, Stony Brook Jun09-Sep09

Created and maintained the database for the entire on-campus wo rk o rd e rs housing in the Stony Brook University.

KEY PROJECTS Incorporation of Relay in WiMAX CE-Wireless Info Tech, Advisor Dr. J. Sharony Fall 09 Studied IEEE 802.16j thoroughly with focus on PHY layer. Researched the possibility of introducing multiple relays so as to extend the coverage area and increase capacity. Recognized the various roadblocks in the implementation of relays. Suggested alternatives and solutions to the problems related to network entry, network architecture, collisions avoidance and power consumption. Co-Operative Networks: Recent Developments and Future Work: Advisor Prof. Xin Wang, Sprg09

Studied the concept of co-operative networks. Researched the various advantages and disadvantages Studied the MIMO technology and the difference between these two technologies.

Implementation of TCP socket client / server programming Fall 09 Studied the TCP/IP protocol. Programmed the TCP socket for client/server using C language on a Linux and Solaris 10 Machine. Introduced child processes, threads and I/O multiplexing for better understanding of the protocol. Study and Simulation of WiMAX Transceiver Senior Design Project 2008 Studied the IEEE 802.16e MAC layer. Recognized the various modules of Transmitter and Receiver. Studied the parameters of modulation and encoding schemes as defined in the standard. Simulated the Transmitter and Receiver along with OFDM block using MATLAB SimuLink and measured the BER for the model with variations in the parameters. Investigated the use Turbo encoder/decoder and OQPSK modulator in the model and measured BER. Comparison of BER for the various versions of the model was conducted. Design of a Futuristic Advertising Mode Using RTLS and Wi-Fi Fall 08 Conceptualization of a new method of localized and effective advertising using Wi-Fi and Real Time Location System, RTLS. It involves digital sign-age on city buses that change with the location and time of day. These city buses will be connected to the Bus depot using WiMAX and communicate with its passengers and pedestrians in the area via Wi-Fi access point and Wi-Fi enabled cell phones. A user with a wireless device in its vicinity can request a coupon for an advertised offer by logging in and choosing from the real-time list of services generated. A mode of secure payment can also be incorporated to take advantage of the offer instantaneously. Implementation of Convolutional Encoder and Viterbi Algorithm Sprg09

Studied Convolutional Encoder and Viterbi algorithm Implemented them along with the Source and Channel for short and long sequences and studied their performance.

Comparison of Performance of Different Source Coding Schemes Applied To Images Sprg09 Studied Shannon-Fano and Hoffmann coding schemes. Programmed these schemes using MATLAB Applied the code to a set of images and measured their efficiencies. Proved that Hoffmann coding scheme is more efficient than Shannon-Fano coding scheme based of the results. Caller Identification Number System Junior Design Project Studied the DTMF codes and the voltage levels on the telephone line for them. Chose the necessary components, DTMF-to-BCD converter and power supply for the circuit. Designed the PCB design using OrCAD Capture CIS and PCB designer for optimization. Etched the PCB design and soldered the components. Interfaced the calculator to display the number of the calling party. 2007

Application of Various Filters on a Color Image Sprg09 Converted RGB into HSI of a jpeg image Implemented the following filters on it: 1. Geometric Transformation. 3. Shift-variant linear filtering (Rao Transform). 2. Frequency domain filtering. 4. Non-linear filtering: Edge-preserving noise smoothing with a 5x5 Median filter. Website Development May04 Aug04
