M.Tech

The focus of the M.Tech. Degree programme in Communication Systems is on a thorough and in-depth study of Communication theory from a signal processing perspective as exemplified by courses like Advanced Digital Signal Processing, Coherent Optical Communication, High speed Communication Networks and Error-Control Coding. A broad theoretical base is provided through courses like Linear Operators and Integral Equations, Probability and Stochastic processes and Signal Detection and Estimation. The students also undergo laboratory programmes on the design and implementation of communication subsystems based on DSP modules and fibre-optic devices and components besides devoting their final semester entirely to the project work.

The analog and digital electronics circuits have grown enormously in complexity and functionality in the IT age. To cope up with this trend, knowledge and experience on the use of computer aided design automation tools have become mandatory.

The M.Tech. degree course on VLSI System provides just that to aspiring postgraduates from all branches of Electrical Sciences. To cater to the practical inputs required by the programme, a VLSI Design Laboratory equipped with several up-to-date VLSI CAD tools like ORCAD, MICROSIM, SABER and FPGA/PLD has been setup. The curriculum of the programme is so designed that students from all branches of Electrical Sciences have scope to learn and develop new algorithms for testing VLSI systems. The curriculum consists of core courses devoted to the design basics of VLSI systems, the hardware description languages and CAD tools. The elective courses are oriented towards imparting specialized knowledge and skills in the use of advanced VLSI design techniques for the different disciplines within Electrical Sciences. The students devote their final semester entirely to project work.
