Communication Lab: Communication Engineering laboratory focuses on training the students in both analog and digital transmission/reception of signal. The students here start in the analog area by constructing the circuits of amplitude modulation, frequency modulation and phase modulation. A mini AM transmitter is constructed by them in the MW frequency of electromagnetic spectrum and they do a live transmission with minimum power output. The signals are then received in a pocket AM radio. Learning the concepts, with small applications give them plenty of joy and real motivation towards their studies.
The other important area of analog signal processing is the phase locked loop. Students are given NE 565 PLL IC and made to conduct an experiment to find the capture and lock ranges with their designed specifications. Here the students make use of function generators with frequency sweep facility.
The students are enlighted yet in another area is audio systems, widely used to address the public. The students perform the characteristics of microphone. So they gain knowledge in Acoustical Engineering. They also test condenser, coil and piezo electric transducers used in the audio engineering. In the area of pulse techniques, faculty help them in PAM and PWM experiments. In addition to all the above, the lab consists of the fiber optic trainer, analog signal sampling kit, TDM trainer and microwave testbenches.

Mr.R.Balaji
Mr.J.Soundappan
Microprocessor lab helps the students enhance their knowledge about various processors such as 8085,8086,microcontollers,Pentium processors and also the interfacing of these processors with other equipments.Students from other branch of engineering and sciences also come to this lab and develop their skills in the field of microprocessor and its applications.The features and facilities available in this lab will help the students do their projects and enhance their knowledge about the latest trends and technologies.
MICROWAVE LAB and OPTICAL COMMUNICATION LAB Mr.E.Alex Sundararaj / Mr.R.Yuvaraj
In Microwave Lab the students are exposed to the microwave active devices like klystron, gunn diode and passive devices isolator ,circulator,slide screw tunner,magic tee, directional coupler,horn antenna, attenuator, terminations . The students perform all the experiments as prescribed by the university.
The optical communication laboratory is setup to complement the topics studied in the optical communication theory course. The lab is equipped withy fiber optic trainer kits and modules to enable the study of components of an optical communication system.
The students perform experiments to study the characteristics of optical sources (LED & LD) and optical detectors (LD & APD) and optical fibers. Fault detection in a fiber link is studied using the OTDR module. A FSO module enables study of Transmission of optical signal in free space. The lab is equipped with connecterization and splicing kits.
DSP/VLSI LABLab Incharge
Mr.B.Balaji
Mr.C.Manikandan
The Digital Signal Processing and VLSI applications are becoming more prevalent in every day use. The field of DSP/VLSI was developed due to the flexibility offered by the use of digital computers in implementing signal processing algorithms and systems. There is a constant need for designing systems with lower power ,higher speed and lower area. The DSP/VLSI lab is equipped with hordes of personal computers. The students enrich their knowledge by using the software tools like matlab,modelsim,Leonardo spectrum,xilinx,HDL Designer Pro and cadence.
