EE582R/682R Wireless Design Course

Not currently scheduled

Overview: OSU Wireless Design Projects
EE682R is a design course where senior undergraduate students working in a team environment design and built a wireless communication system.

Recent Wireless Design Projects in 95, 96, 97, 98 and 99
The 95-99 design projects involved the students in the design of the RF front end of a 2.4-2.485 GHz 1 mW wireless VCR-TV link. The transmitter and receiver integrated together various components such as; patch antennas, low noise amplifiers, voltage control oscillators, a (image rejection) mixers, transmission filters, PLL and microprocessors. A Dopper radar was also realized in the 99 design project. See also: Microwave and RF Curriculum

Wireless Design Course Format
The Wireless design course starts in EE582R. Students grouped in small teams develop in EE582R a proposal for a EE682R wireless design project. A typical wireless project involves multiple components to be integrated such as, RF/microwave circuitry, antenna, electronic circuits, microprocessors circuit/programing, digital signal processing (DSP) and communication system analysis and design. The most promising projects proposed in EE582R are then implemented in EE682R. Teams whose project was not selected are acquired by the winning teams.
