Honours BEng Engineering Science & Technology

Brunel University, UK, Grade: 2.2, Study duration: 09/1997-06/2000.

BEng Dissertation / BEng Final Year Project: ‘An Infrared Communication System’ – Design of a communication application using infrared for industrial environments. Drivers and interface development (real-time "chat-board", transfer status informational windows for file transfers and security). The application’s main target was the industrial environments, thus high error correction design algorithms have been implemented to support the peculiarities of industrial environments.
