Term Project Instructions
Objective: The term project will allow students to apply theoretical knowledge of wireless
communication systems through practical simulation and analysis. The project involves coding,
simulating, and analyzing a wireless communication system. Students are expected to demonstrate
understanding of wireless communication concepts, problem-solving skills, and the ability to
simulate wireless systems using software tools such as MATLAB (main) or Python.
Project Guidelines
1. Project Topic Selection:
Choose a topic related to wireless communication, such as modulation techniques (PSK,
QAM), wireless channel modeling, MIMO systems, OFDM, NOMA, OTFS, CR (cognitive
radio), or ISAC (Integrated sensing and communication).
Submit your topic proposal for approval
Ensure that your topic is focused enough to be completed within the project timeline
but broad enough to demonstrate your knowledge.
2. Project Components: The project must consist of the following components:
Literature Review: A brief survey of related works on your chosen topic.
System Design: Explain the system architecture and components.
Simulation Setup: Detail the simulation environment, including the software used,
parameters set, and any assumptions made.
Code Implementation: Write and execute code that simulates the wireless system. The
code should be well-structured and documented.
Performance Analysis: Analyze the performance of the system.
Conclusion: Summarize your findings and suggest possible future improvements.
3. Project Submission:
Code: Submit all code files (e.g., .m, .py) in a zip folder. Make sure the code is well-
commented and can be run directly.
Report: Submit a written report (in Word or PDF format. You can use LATEX)
summarizing your project. The report should follow the structure outlined below
