1. Introduction

1.1. Background

Inventions and innovations are key words on which the foundation of IIT Hyderabad is

based. These are also key drivers for the vision of IIT Hyderabad. Our endeavour is to

create an institute that will provide a space for free and uninhibited thinking, a space

where faculty and students can experiment with novel ideas without the fear of failure.

It is our firm belief that such an ambience will foster highest level of research: blue sky

research as well as developmental research leading to proof of concepts and

prototypes.

9. Honors & Minors

Minor/Honors are optional features of the BTech program aimed at providing credit based incentives and additional learning opportunities for academically motivated students. In order to earn a minor/honor a student has to earn a minimum of 12 extra credits. A student can enrol for Minor in fifth semester only; a student can enrol for Honors in fifth or sixth semester (depending on the policy of the department). She/He can also enrol for both Minor & Honors or for two Minors. There is CGPA criterion to enrol for Minor/Honors. However, a student must have cleared all outstanding backlogs by the time of enrolment into Minor/Honors. The final transcript will only show the basic CGPA corresponding to the minimum requirement for the degree. The Minors/Honors will be indicated by a separate CGPA. The additional courses taken will also find separate mention in the transcript. Honors will be reflected in the degree certificate as “BTech (honors) in XYZ Engineering”. Similarly, Minor as “BTech in XYZ Engineering with Minor in ABC”. If a student has done both honors & minor, it will be acknowledged as “BTech (honours) in XYZ Engineering with Minor in ABC”. Two minors will be reflected as ““BTech in XYZ Engineering with Minor in ABC and Minor in DEF”.

Cognitive Radio by Dr. Zafar Ali Khan & CPS Team@IITH .

This course provides an introduction to cognitive radios, a new type of radio that will be capable of cooperatively adapting transmission modes, channels, and protocols to make the best use of the available spectrum. Such radios will include wideband receivers and transmitters, with many of their functions implemented in software, rather than hardware, to enable greater flexibility. While the most commonly cited example of uses of such radios is sharing of under-used portions of the spectrum with licensed (primary) users, the basic technology also can lead to improved uses of the ISM bands. In addition, the cooperative and adaptive nature of the radios has large consequences for jamming/anti-jamming in military communications, representing both a threat to current systems and an opportunity for their evolution to more secure modes. The course provides a background in the technology that makes these radios possible as well as providing guidance on their benefits in multiple access systems. Note: Partial credit courses are subject to availability of the instructors and may change every year.
