cellular network

A cellular network or mobile network is a communication network where the last link is wireless. The network is distributed over land areas called cells, each served by at least one fixed-location transceiver, known as a cell site or base station. This base station provides the cell with the network coverage which can be used for transmission of voice, data and others. In a cellular network, each cell uses a different set of frequencies from neighboring cells, to avoid interference and provide guaranteed bandwidth within each cell.
When joined together these cells provide radio coverage over a wide geographic area. This enables a large number of portable transceivers (e.g., mobile phones, pagers, etc.) to communicate with each other and with fixed transceivers and telephones anywhere in the network, via base stations, even if some of the transceivers are moving through more than one cell during transmission.

final year electrical and electronics engineering projects

Project ideas ARM 7 Based Controller Area Network for Accident Avoidance in Automobiles : The project shows an accident avoidance system. Here this system measures various parameters like speed, distance from other cars, alcohol presence in the cars etc. It sends signal if any of the parameters were changed. This also detects the accident  using bump sensor and  sends  an SMS using GSM. Route Guidance For Blind People Using GSM & GPS Modems : This paper presents a smart electronic aid for blind people. The proposed system uses and ultrasonic sensor for detecting the obstacles in the path.GSM, GPS modules were used  to locate the blind. Brushless DC Motor Design for Electric Traction System :  BLDC motor is used in residential ,commercial and aerospace systems due to its various features. This paper explains the designing of BLDC motor drive. Switched Reluctance Motor for Hybrid Electric Vehicle : Switched reluctance motor is a type of stepper motor tha...

Electronic circuir breaker project

CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION 1.1. General Introduction According to (Mohankumar, 2013), “Electrical circuit breaker is a device that senses an overload and short circuit condition, then breaking the circuit to protect the system or circuit from damages or breakdown”. Circuit Breaker was invented over hundred years ago, it was first described by Thomas Edison (1900) as fuse used by his commercial power distribution. The initial reasons for developing the circuit breaker was to protect the lighting circuit wiring from impulse short-circuit and overload (Isreal, 1986). Advancement in the circuit breaker technology was done with the advance in general technology. It advancement include the modern miniature circuit breakers similar to those used currently and it was patented by Brown and Boveri over 90 years ago, (1924). As time pass, requirement for various other types were created due to advancements, for instance, the thermal magnetic breaker which is still in use till date was crea...
