To provide a better idea about the career opportunities in RF/Microwave/Millimetre-wave industry, the Department of Electrical and Communication Engineering (ECE) at SRM University-AP is organising a webinar session on the topic “Insights into RF and Microwaves @ ECE Department SRM AP.” Dr Goutam Rana, Assistant Professor from the department will elucidate on the topic via the Zoom platform on August 21, 2021, Saturday, at 6.00 pm.

Since the major share of RF engineers works in the communication industry, the scope for growth is enormous. Being associated with product-based industries reduces the uncertainties due to fluctuations in the market. RF/Microwave/Millimetre-wave technology is very unique and has huge industrial applications in areas like communication, defence, surveillance (military, domestic both), space, automobile, medical etc.

SAMEER, ISRO, DRDO, Cisco Systems, Ericsson India Global Services, Linkquest Telecom LLC, Nokia, Qualcomm, Altiostar Networks, BSNL, Honeywell Technology Solutions Lab, ERICSSON EGI, Broadcom, are some of the organisations and companies that are having job openings on RF & Microwave. Since the major share of RF engineers works in the communication industry, the scope for growth is enormous. Being associated with product-based industries reduces the uncertainties due to fluctuations in the market.

Join this webinar on August 21, 2021, to know more about the different avenues available in RF-Microwave and the skillsets required to excel in RF/Microwave career.

The Department of Chemistry is organising the second episode of the Department Lecture Series on August 28, 2021, at 03.00 pm. Dr Rajendra Joshi, Chairman of RI Group, will deliver a lecture on the topic “Cost-effective high-end research instrumentation and materials in India”.

Indigenous development of upper end scientific analytical instruments in India has always been a big challenge. RI Instruments & Innovation India has proved that with cohesive teamwork, this is very much possible. The group has designed Raman Spectrometer, RIUS (Universal Spectroscopy), RIMS (Modular spectroscopic work station) XRD, TEM (Under Trial), Class AAA Solar simulator, the world’s smallest USB microscope and a few more.

About the speaker:

Dr Rajendra Joshi is the recipient of the National Innovation Award for the year 2019 by the Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilizer, Govt. of India for the innovation of Graphene Oxide / Li based rechargeable batteries with replaceable electrodes. As an Instrumentation Professional and Material’s Physicist, he started his career at National Physical Laboratory, New Delhi in the year 1997 – 1998. He has certification in Quality Control/R&D Professional training from Japan, Germany, France, Italy and UK. Cost-effective solar simulator, Indian designed drone for societal applications, Graphene Oxide-based rechargeable battery with replaceable electrodes etc are some of his major achievements.

The Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (EEE) at SRM University-AP is organising an invited lecture in collaboration with the technical society Automatic Control & Dynamic Optimization Society (ACDOS) on August 28, 2021. Prof. Sukumar Mishra from IIT Delhi will speak on the topic of “Issues in grid-connected PV system” at 11.00 am on that day via zoom. Vice-Chancellor of SRM University-AP Prof Vajja Sambasiva Rao, Associate Deans and Faculty members of the EEE department will be the panellists of the event.

Automatic Control & Dynamic Optimization Society (ACDOS) was established in the year 2011 with a noble objective to promote automatic control and dynamic optimisation discipline in academia and industry across India. The society aims to host international conferences and technical workshops regularly in order to promote close interaction between industry and academia. The society also participates in curriculum development for graduate and undergraduate studies in addition to facilitating productive research in this field. The society volunteers to honour eminent persons who excelled in this field in industry and academic circles.

Hands-on IoT with MATLAB and ThingSpeak

The Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) at SRM University-AP is hosting the third edition of the ongoing online Workshop Series “Learn & Earn: Hands-On Science & Technology (HOST)” to learn and explore the latest techniques in the field of science and technology. The workshop series-III, titled “IoT Hands-on with MATLAB & ThingSpeak”, will be held on August 10, 2021. Mr Ramana Anchuri from MathWorks will engage the participants of the workshop from 11:00 am to 1:00 pm.

The main objective of organising the workshop on IoT is to impart practical lessons on the following topics: a) Leveraging low-cost hardware for IoT, b) Setting up ThingSpeak Channel c) Basic Hardware Integration such as Blinking an LED, Reading sensor data and acting on data, d) IoT Analytics using ThingSpeak like Apps and Data Explorers.

About the Speaker:
Ramana Anchuri is an Engineer from the Education Team at The MathWorks, working with academia in India. He completed his undergraduate studies in Electrical and Electronics Engineering and a Masters in Power Electronics from JNTU Hyderabad. Prior to joining The MathWorks, he worked in academia and in industry. He worked with KPIT Pune as a senior software engineer where he was responsible for control design for automotive engine systems, and with CYIENT Limited as a senior software engineer responsible for developing, verifying and validating aircraft engine control systems. He is passionate about teaching and learning, and his current interests include Power Electronics and Control Design, Model-Based Design and Code Generation.

Prerequisites for a highly effective workshop session:

  • All participants should have a MathWorks account, if they haven’t already – follow the instructions in the attached doc for account creation.
  • All participants must complete the MATLAB Onramp & Simulink Onramp prior to the session. Each of these free Onramps typically takes 2-3 hours and is self-paced. Participants get a completion certificate from MathWorks for each of these courses.
  • Since we have hands-on activity during the session, every participant needs to join with a working laptop with access to MATLAB installed version/MATLAB Online – They need not have hardware at their end.
  • For those participants who don’t have a license to access MATLAB, they can request a trial.
