PAST PROJECTS

Supervisor	Project Description	Year
Dr. M Kulkarni Head, Dept. of IT DCE, University of Delhi Dr. Asok De Prof. Dept. of IT DCE, University of Delhi Prof. P. B. Sharma Principal, Delhi College of Engineering pbsharma@dce.edu	Title: Quad Rotor Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Designed the Wireless Communication system of the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle. The 3 Km 802.11b wireless link was used to relay the video from the secondary UAV to the primary UAV to the base station. The wireless link was also used to implement the secondary kill switch and retrieval of GPS data. The UAV system was awarded the Best Design Innovation at the International Aerial Robotics Competition (IARC) 2006 held at Fort Benning, GA, US.
