Facilities:
The Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering has well equipped laboratories in the areas of Fibre Optics, Robotics, Surface Mounted Device handling, Digital Signal Processing Lab, Microprocessors, Power Electronics, Communication Electronics, Basic Electronics. Some of the special equipments include a 68020 Microprocessor Development System with several peripherals, inter-faces and PROM programming facility, signal analysers , micro computer systems to generate real time control, computers for process control, micro-computer based components and IC testers, storage and digital oscilloscopes, micro-wave benches, digital signal processing stations, fibre optics trainer systems, computerized signal analyzers. The department also has a well-equipped audiovisual centre, which has recording, editing and mixing facilities. Development of video packages and computer aided instruction packages in topics of current and emerging interest have been undertaken. The department has involved itself in several continuing education programmes and training programmes for teachers and also for personnel from BEML, L&T, HCL, etc. A unique 3 months programme was organized from Hindustan Computers Ltd., in the field of Basic and Digital Electronics. Several industrial consultancy projects have been completed. To name a few, for the Central Public Health Environmental Organization, import-substitution items such as underground valve box cover locator, pipe detector and water leakage detector, have been successfully developed and tested. Research and Development is presently being carried out in the field of Digital Signal and Image Processing, microprocessor based AC/DC drives, PC based instrumentation, robotics and speech recognition and synthesis; some of the R&D works is being jointly carried out with industries such as L & T. The Department has recently established facilities for surface mount device handling, parallel processing, PC based instrumentation and control, and training programme in UNIX every semester. Two AICTE funded research projects in the area of Robotics and script recognition have been successfully completed by the department. Dr. Srinivasa Rao Kunte, Professor at JNNCE, Shimoga has completed the research work leading to Ph.D of Mysore University. He worked under Dr. Sudhakar Samuel, Professor and head of the department. In the year 2003 the department has received two grants from AICTE, one for modernization and one for research in high-speed network performance analysis being investigated by Dr. C.R. Venugopal. The department has initiated programmes for joint research with organizations in Russia, Armenia and Singapore. The department of E&C will be offering International level certification training programs in the area of Networking and Internet Engineering in collaboration with CISCO. Research Focus:
