Hardware Design
This is a high-performance dual-band ground station module developed to maximize link reliability and range performance in RC systems. Built upon a dual Semtech LR1121 architecture, the system provides signal enhancement through simultaneous single or dual-frequency broadcasting. The design is engineered to eliminate parasitic effects and interference during transmission, ensuring seamless and stable communication even in the most challenging RF environments.
In Progress
This project features the FPGA-based prototyping of a flight control system for rotary-wing UAVs. Built on a 32-bit RISC-V (CV32E40P) architecture, the system performs multi-sensor fusion by integrating I2C, SPI, and UART communication protocols alongside PWM and ADC interfaces. The implementation of the digital DShot protocol ensures high-precision motor speed management with ultra-low latency.
Internship Project
This project series encompasses the design and development of three distinct Switched-Mode Power Supply (SMPS) boards, engineered in accordance with industrial standards during my internship. The designs include a 12W high-efficiency Flyback switcher based on the TNY288PG, a 4.2W power unit developed with the LNK605DG IC featuring constant current/voltage control, and a 10W industrial-grade dual-output power stage built on the VIPer22A architecture, specifically optimized for HVAC (air-conditioning) systems. Each design prioritizes critical engineering criteria, including AC-DC conversion efficiency, EMI/EMC compliance, thermal management, and compact PCB layout optimization.
Graduation Project
Designed and implemented a multi-node LoRa Mesh network featuring 1 Master (LoRa+GSM) and 2 Slave nodes. Optimized the system to bridge remote areas without cellular coverage by routing local mesh data through a centralized GSM gateway for remote monitoring.
Conducted comparative RF antenna designs for the slave nodes, implementing both internal trace and external SMA antenna configurations. This allowed for performance benchmarking of signal integrity and range efficiency across different hardware form factors.
Antenna Design
Designed and optimized 868 MHz and 1.8 GHz meandered Inverted-F Antennas (IFA) for embedded systems. Conducted comprehensive analysis of antenna parameters and utilized HFSS Smith Chart tools to achieve 50 Ohm impedance matching for seamless system integration.
RF Design & Analysis
Investigated the impact of critical length on 868 MHz and 1.8 GHz CPWG transmission lines, comparing theoretical literature values with optimized simulation results. Observed that critical length is governed not only by frequency but also significantly by physical layout constraints, demonstrating that standard closed-form equations often require empirical refinement via HFSS for high-precision system integration.
RF Design & Analysis
Designed and analyzed a 68 nH passive planar spiral inductor using HFSS, specifically engineered as a PCB-integrated solution rather than a discrete component. Developed for an 868 MHz antenna impedance matching network, the design focuses on leveraging the PCB's physical geometry to achieve precise inductance.
Term Project
Designed and analyzed a 1.2 GHz Wilkinson Power Divider on an FR4 substrate using λ/4 matching sections. While targeted at 1.2 GHz, full-wave simulations demonstrated optimized performance at 1.368 GHz.
Term Project
Developed a smart elevator prototype equipped with integrated sensors to manage critical emergency scenarios. The system processes real-time data to execute automated safety protocols for fire and earthquake events. The project includes a software control layer and a physical prototype designed to prioritize passenger safety by managing floor evacuation and power-fail procedures during disasters.
