Class participation will be judged by in-class evaluation; attendance will be recorded in every class.
Continuous assessment will be done in the form of laboratory tasks, assignments, laboratory-tests, report writing and viva.
A group project on the design of a digital system performing a specific task with the help of various signal processing operations has to be completed by the end of this course following the detailed guideline. A project report has to be submitted as per the instructions and the project has to demonstrated and presented in the class for evaluation.
Instructions on Lab Project
Students are to demonstrate the culmination of Course Outcomes through a small project, that can be implemented in roughly 4-5 Weeks. A Project Proposal needs to be prepared by the student group.
Project Requirements:
Must have conflicting / wide range solution (say improving speed of a circuit might also increase power consumption) (P(a))
Must be an open-ended real-life problem with no obvious solution (P(b)) (Complex Engineering problem)
Project should address community needs, public health and safety, cultural, societal, and environmental considerations [CO3 (PO(c))]
Project must involve real-life data and its necessary processing using software. Understand the limits of the used technology. [CO2(PO(e))]
Evaluation
10 Minutes recorded video presentation [with PPT slides] [CO6(P(j))]
Peer Evaluation of Group Members [CO4(PO(h))], [CO5(PO(i))]
Report in prescribed format with:
Literature survey on concerned technology [CO4(PO(l))]
Technical Details of the Solution [CO6(PO(j))]
Teamwork and Individual Performance Report [CO5(PO(i))]
Technological Limit Evaluation [CO2(PO(e))]
Public health and safety, cultural, societal, and environmental considerations [CO3(PO(c))]
Ethics declaration statement [CO4(PO(h))]
Lab Reports and Lab Performance 10%
Lab test/Viva/Quiz 40%
*Assessment will be performed by internal and external evaluators with industry experience
* marks distribution of the project will be declared at the beginning of the semester
