Projects

XLAPI Framework Developer

Integration of NR Test scenarios for 5G Conformance
has been migrated over to new stack of XLAPI. Have started development over PHY
Stack for Transmission Signalling Test Scenarios in compliance with 3GPP Release
15.Project, is still on development phase.
RRM Conformance
To begin with, I have worked on RRC and PHY IEs development from the aspects of
RRC Reconfiguration Setup Messages used in 5G-NR SA and NSA ode used for RRM
Conformance and Validation, and as per 3GPP-38.331 and 38.533 TS.
Protocol Tool Set
In this project, I was involved with the integration of Layer 3 and Layer 1 parameters
such as RRC Setup Messages, RRC Reconfiguration Parameters, Downlink Scheduling
Grant, SIB, MIB, PUSCH , PDSCH and other crucial IEs as directed in TS-38.508 and
TS-38.331. It is mainly for Protocol R&D and Conformance Testing and Validation.

AT&T Development
Worked on LTE Release 11 Protocol Conformance Test Case Development on PHY &
RRC layer.
The coverage for CAT-M1 and NB-IOT developments are also included.Development on
MLAPI stack and integration with state machine helps to develop understanding of
protocol stack at PHY & RRC layer

API Development
Have developed API for Qualcomm, Mediatek & Unisoc chipset and their integration
with software for test system automation and measurement.It involves test case
development for Physical Layer Parameters such as EVM, Burst Power, RSSI etc. Have
worked for one year on all the chipset

Product Automation
Have involved in the T&M product automation with CMW flexx setup for CA test
scenarios. Have also automated other T&M products for speeding up the protocol test
performance. Have worked for a year and a half on development and architecture part.

Radar Signal Processing
Range and velocity determination of a moving target. Concepts of pulse integration,
convolution correlation and matched filters are used and there key role has been
successfully implemented on MATLAB software

Metro Train Prototype
The project is based on embedded technology .ARDUINO and AVR microcontrollers are
used. Anti-collision system,wall follower concept and barrier system are successfully
implemented on hardware. Code Vision and AVR software are used.

Design of a Wearable Micro-strip Antenna
The aim is to design and simulate a wearable antenna using micro-strip technology that
plays an efficient role in Body Area Network that enables wearable computing devices to
share the digital information. Optimize the design parameters to define a compact
antenna which can work in the free ISM range of 2.4 GHz using HFSS software. Its
important role in body centric wireless communication.
