Projects

Conical Helical antenna, Undergraduate Research Conference, MSU                                        2006
  • Designed a prototype conical helical antenna based on traditional helical antenna
  • Tested various test antennas inside an anechoic chamber to analyze their radiation pattern, gain, directivity, half power beam width using network vector analyzer
  • Arranged the antennas in an array for better gain and directivity and analyzed its behavior
  • Compiled the test results and research documentation for publication
  • Received $1,410 as an undergraduate research grant from Minnesota State University


Web Access to EnviroAlert 400 from Windland Electronics                                                          2005
  • Reversed engineered EA400 to communicate to Linksys54G router using RS-232
  • Converted Linksys54G router into an embedded web server to host web pages
  • Hosted web pages from the router to let users read and configure EA400 remotely
  • Programmed the router to send email and text messages to cell phone during security hazards


Voice Over IP Telephone Project, Minnesota State University-Mankato                                   2005
  • Installed separate network switches and Ethernet ports for voice over IP telephones
