Lab in Charge: Sheela K George

This lab provides softwares needed for design, simulation, and analysis of signal processing systems. Students can design their chips up to 90 nm by using Cadence and alliance tools. Spice simulation software’s provides a platform for circuit analysis and make the student’s job easier.

Signal processing techniques have come to occupy centre place of importance in engineering and technology as evidenced by the plethora of electronic devices available in the market and which employ simple to complex signal processing operations. This points to the opportunities available for signal processing

The centre has facilities such as:

• For simulation purposes, ANSOFT simulation software, Multisim software and PCB design software are also available.

• Additional facilities include ARM microcontroller kits and OMAP boards.

Some of the research activities in progress in the research centre include:

1. Transforms of signals for image compression and transmission.
2. Digital beam forming for mobile communication.
3. Simulation of different types of Microstrip patch antennas.
