EDUCATIONAL BACKGROUND:
Masters: ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING, UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO (STATE UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK):2015-2017- GPA: 3.4/4.0
BACHELORS: ELECTRONICS & COMMUNICATIONS, VIT UNIVERSITY-VELLORE:2011-2015- GPA: 7.5/10.0
AIM: To confidently design a solution which is feasible with new concepts at par with current trend.
COURSES: MIMO-Multiple input multiple output, Principles of Modern digital communications, Smart Antennas, RF design,
Antennas & Wave Propagation, Mobile Cellular Communications, Digital Signal Processing, Digital communication system
design & implementation, Network system design, Nanoscale communications & Networking
PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE: Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC), Ahmedabad, India: Worked on WIMAX technology &
implications of SCADA & BWA system.
SKILLS: C, C++, Python, Datastructures, MATLAB, ADS (Agilent Technologies), Antenna Design, LTE, FPGA, VHDL, Quartus II-
De2i-150, PIC, EAGLE PCB Design Software, PLC programming, NS3, Nios II SBT for Eclipse, Wireshark, COMSOL, UMTS, CDMA,
WCDMA, TCP/IP, UDP, BGP, WPA, IPv4, IPv6.
ABILITIES: Ability to organize information & work confidently in a group. I like being supportive, creativity, accept
responsibility.
PROJECTS:
1) KNIGHT-RIDER BLINK PATTERN: The famous KNIGHT RIDER LED blink pattern of clock cycle of 0.125s is implemented
on the DE2i-150 board at 8Hz. ALTPLL generates the frequency which passes through the Johnson Counter to assign the
Gray code to each LED forming a pattern.
2) GENERATION OF FADING CHANNEL: Using MATLAB various Rayleigh & Jakes fading are simulated and optimization
analysis are produced.
3) ULTRASONIC NANO-TRANSCEIVERS AND NANO-TRANSDUCERS: The project aims to design the devices at Nano
level such that they can operate at high frequencies.
4) DESIGN POWER BEAM PATTERN: For a given set of beamformer weight values array power pattern was plotted using
MATLAB that was observed to have the maximum value of the output power pattern which are used for signal reception
at 0°.
5) COMPRESSIVE SENSING FOR ECG SIGNALS: This project designs the construction of high resolution image from a low
resolution image using the concepts of compressed sensing. This uses reduced number of samples as compared to the
Nyquist criterion.
6) IMPLEMENTATION OF FFT on DE2i-150: Modular approach was used to realize the implementation of FFT that
included creating Signal generator module, FFT computation module, oscilloscope module, VGA controller module.
7) WEARABLE ANTENNAS: Analyzed the use of wearable antennas including the design & characteristics that are
implemented
8) KINECT BASED HUMAN POSE ESTIMATION FOR WIRELESS MOTION CONTROL: Using Microsoft Kinect SDK various
poses of human skeleton were estimated to wirelessly control the motion of the bot.
POSITION OF RESPONSIBILITY:
1) NASA RASC-AL Exploration Robo-Ops Space Bulls Team- Currently working in the control & communications
department that requires long range wireless communication.
2) (FSG GERMANY-July2014): PRAVEGA RACING HOCKEINHEIMRING- I worked on designing the codes for launch
control, traction control, pneumatic shifting & analyzed wireless telemetry system using OFDMA.
3) (FSAE ITALY- Sept 2013): PRAVEGA RACING RICARDO PALETI CIRCUIT-VARANO DE’ MELEGARI-I worked on
dashboard design & presented an integrated wiring harness.
4) Core committee member at SEDS (Students for Exploration & Development of Space)
5) Content Writer for CHALKSTUDIO-FACE (Focus Academy for Career Enhancement) & NGO-HELPHEN.
AWARDS & ACHIEVEMENTS:
1) SPECIAL ACHIEVER AWARD(April,2015)-VIT UNIVERSITY
2) SPECIAL ACHIEVER AWARD(April,2014)-VIT UNIVERSITY
3) EMBEDDED SYSTEM DESIGN USING ARDUINO(January,2014)-TIFAC CORE-AUTOMOIVE INFOTRONICS
4) PCB DESIGN USING ORCAD TOOL(January,2014)-TIFAC CORE - AUTOMOIVE INFOTRONICS
