Course Projects
Two projects during the semester. One literature survey and one on
simulation analysis/development
Purpose is to deepen and/or broaden the student knowledge and
abilities in wireless systems
All students are required to do two projects/semester paper being
worth 10% of the final grade. The projects would involve a critical
review of literature and a programming project or a simulation or
analytical study.
The project may be done individually or in teams of two students,
provided that the tasks of each team member are clearly identified.

Course Projects
All projects must be approved by the instructor. You are
encouraged to discuss project ideas with the instructor and to
submit your proposal as early as possible.
You would be required to work on a network simulator package
such as Matlab, ns-2, OPNET or similar
You are required to choose project topics within the first three
weeks of classes.
The projects will be completed in three phases, each being
graded separately.
