Presentation Transcript

  1. EE 682L: An Introduction • EE682 Goals • Capstone design project • Apply engineering practices and techniques • Use written and oral communication skills • Engage students in teamwork • 682L Project: RF Digital Modem • Performance: bits/second/dollar • Limits: $100 and DL569 lab PCs

  2. Instructors • Lee Potter, Associate Professor • DL716 • potter.36@osu.edu • Office: MTWF 12:30-1:18 and by appointment • Email daily • Aditi Kothiyal, Graduate Teaching Assistant • DL569 • kothiyaa@ee.eng.ohio-state.edu • Lab hours: MW 4-6; TR 4:30-7:30

  3. Whence 582/682? • Over one-third of engineering time is spent on writing, editing, and preparing reports and oral presentations. • A 1987--1991 survey of OSU Engineering alumni and employers showed preparation mismatched to importance on four topics: • writing skills, oral skills, problem solving, teamwork. • A.B.E.T. encouraged increasing both design experience and teamwork. EE582/682 was introduced in 1995

  4. 682L Course Structure • Project Plan January 22 • Interim Report February 9 • Final Presentation March 8 Jan 22 Design Feb 9 Build Mar 8 Test and Re-design

  5. Course Structure: Finer Scale • Progress report week 2 • Project Plan January 22 • Plan critique week 4 • Interim Report February 9 • Oral presentation week 6 • Progress report week 8 • Oral presentation week 10 • Final Report March 12 • Demo March 15

  6. From Student Feedback… • More team time during regularly schedule hours • 16 team hours • 7 lecture hours • 6 presentation hours • More lab access • 10 hours/week open lab (and by appointment) • Lab shared with EE508 • Review meetings (weeks 2, 4 and 8) • Peer evaluations • Interim report serves as first iteration on the final report • Clarity in schedule, expectations, and evaluation criteria. • Link with EE582

  7. Design Specifications • Build and demonstrate a prototype modem • FCC compliant, 902-928 MHz • Distance 8.25m • Character error rate 0.001 • Data rate 9800 bps • Development cost $100 • Packet duration 7 sec • Delay 30 sec • DL569 PCs • Files and typed text

  8. Design Specifications • Build and demonstrate a prototype modem • FCC compliant, 902-928 MHz • Distance 8.25m (DL569 length) • Character error rate 0.001 (simple to measure) • Data rate 9800 bps (proven reachable) • Development cost $100 (actual budget) • Packet duration 7 sec • Delay 30 sec (processing time) • DL569 PCs • Files and typed text Realistic and realism UHF Wi-Fi; 3 credits, 1 quarter

  9. Resources for Success • Instructors: office hours and lab hours (14 hours/week) • Communications Primer and two lectures • Basics of digital communications • Pointers to further information • Web Links at course web page • Starting points for RF components, antennas, coding, PC I/O, FCC • Free-ware on-line and Matlab toolboxes • Texts on reserve at SEL • EE582 preparation

  10. Hints for Success • Start early • Make good progress before other courses become intense • For reporting, reserve time for editing • Team-work • Identify tasks and partition effort among team members • Take advantage of course resources • Test sub-systems and pay attention to interfaces • In software, leave parameters as variables (for easy mods) • Respect team-mates • Have fun building a working device
