Department Of Electronics & Communication

The Electronics and Communication Engineering Department was formed in the year 2002.Besides running a 4-year B. Tech. degree and a 5-year Integrated B. Tech-M. Tech. degree program, the Department also runs two M. Tech. degree programs with specializations in Communication Systems (CS) and Microelectronics & Embedded Technology (MET).

The salient features of the degree programs are:

• Inculcate analytical approach,
• Adequate number of courses on humanities and personality development,
• Judicious mix of hardware and software based experiments,
• Emphasis on learning through design and simulation,
• Open ended laboratory problems,
• Higher emphasis on project and project based learning, and
• State-of-the-Art courses in Mobile Communications, Optical Communications, Telecommunication Networks, Signal Processing, Microelectronics, Digital System Design, Embedded Systems and MEMS.

A key feature of these programs is their balanced core and flexible elective structure. The curriculum is designed to provide a good foundation and the development of an all-round engineering outlook.

 

The department has following well equipped laboratories:

• Communication Systems laboratory
• Control and Instrumentation laboratory
• Microprocessor laboratory
• Signal processing laboratory
• VHDL/VLSI laboratory
• Electrical machines/Power electronics laboratory
• Electronic devices laboratory
• Advanced communication systems  laboratory
• Project laboratory

All the laboratories are equipped with state-of-the-art instruments and software tools to enable the students to perform design oriented experiments and test their designs. Some examples are :

• Software: IC Station, FPGA advantage, MEMS Pro design system, Matlab with various tool boxes and Labview.
• Hardware: Vector Network Analyzer, Vector Signal Generator, Digital Storage Oscilloscopes, Arbitrary Function Generators, etc.
