Experience

    Education

    • St Antony's Public School

      High School Diploma

      Science
      AISSE

    • National Institute of Technology Calicut

      Bachelor of Technology - BTech

      Electrical and Electronics Engineering
      Relevant Projects (1) Study of sliding mode control of a dc-dc converter and performance comparison with classical control methods such as voltage and current mode control. This involved simulation study using MATLAB-Simulink and Orcad PSPICE. A boost converter hardware prototype was developed in the laboratory. (2) Implemented a linear predictor using MATLAB. This involved the development of basic DSP data structures such as lattice filters and modeling of different vocal tracts using the same. (3) Implemented a Digital PLL using Arduino platform.
