RESEARCH
Being an engineering school, the school is focusing on research
work only in those areas where potential application of the
research is in-sight and the benefits are tangible. Focus is
more on the areas where the research work can result in patents
or in products for the industry. This necessarily translates
into research areas where experimental work becomes very
relevant and supports simulation work.
Currently the focus of research work is in the area of
“Wireless Sensor Networks”. Wireless Sensor Networks with area
of pervasive computing is emerging as an area which provides
huge opportunity for improvement in application areas like defence, security, patient care, environmental study etc.
The current research work is focused on the energy constraints
and distributed signal processing aspects of Wireless Sensor
Networks. The application and adaptability of Zigbee™
applications is also being investigated. The school is building
up special laboratories consisting of Motes and other dedicated
hardware for supporting the research work in this area.
