Biorobotics Laboratory BioRob
Project Database
This page contains the database of possible research projects for master and bachelor students in the Biorobotics Laboratory (BioRob). Visiting students are also welcome to join BioRob, but it should be noted that no funding is offered for those projects. To enroll for a project, please directly contact one of the assistants (directly in his/her office, by phone or by mail). Spontaneous propositions for projects are also welcome, if they are related to the research topics of BioRob, see the BioRob Research pages and the results of previous student projects.

| 739 – Radio communication tests on 169.4 MHz |
| Category: | semester project | |
| Keywords: | Electronics, Embedded Systems, Firmware, Radio | |
| Type: | 10% theory, 70% hardware, 20% software | |
| Responsible: | (MED 1 1025, phone: 36630) | |
| Description: | Mobile robots often communicate over the 2.4 GHz band using standard off-the-shelf technologies as WiFi or Bluetooth, or sometimes custom radio protocols either on the 2.4 GHz or 868 MHz ISM bands, both on the UHF part of the radio spectrum. This project aims at evaluating the possibility of using the 169.4 MHz band (VHF) for controlling robots and obtaining telemetry, as it might give much better results in terms of range and transmission through obstacles or water, even if the available bandwidth is much more restricted. The project involves:
Requirements: experience with digital electronics and basic understanding of radio communications and related concepts (e.g. transmission lines, antennas). Previous experience with radio frequency and/or PCB design is a plus. Last edited: 11/06/2024 | |
