E-SYNC is the common tangential bond which brings together the entire

Electronics & communication Engineering Department, students and faculty alike.

The main objective behind the “ESYNC REVISTA ” is to strengthen this bond by

bringing up a platform to share information and ideas. Engineering is incomplete

without application, a college is incomplete without its student’s expressions and

technology is incomplete without innovation.

This edition is a special one as it is dedicated to notion breaking ideas and

stories. You will find a variety of interesting articles to make up for an amusing

reading material from all walks of life, including book reviews of extraordinary tales,

innovations breaking the glass roof of impossibility, out of the box games and quizzes

and much more. Make sure to catch up with a special interview of Prof. R N Mutagi,

Head of the department, Electronics & communication Engineering at his candid best.

Happy reading!!!

ESYNC Students Association’s vision is to primarily

help prepare students discover themselves,

build relationship and make a difference in the world

Think.Create.Explore

I am very pleased to be associated with the department of

Electronics & Communication and the E-sync. I personally have

seen the growth of this organization, the journey from beginning.

If you say “hi!” I definitely want to hear what you have to say

and eager to work with you to take E-sync and everyone to a

greater height. One of my main objectives this year is to increase

the “bandwidth” of the student association and make a National

Level Students Association. I always say “If you help E-sync to

grow, it will in turn help you up to grow”.

I would specially like to thank Prof. R N Mutagi and all the staff members of the

department for their valuable support and guidance. Last but not the least I would like to

thank my E-sync Revista Team without their efforts the successful making of the magazine

would not be.

We wish to express our gratitude to Prof. Hansa Shingrakhia for her generous advice, inspiring guidance & encouragement throughout the year for academic as well as non-academic activities conducted under the roof of E-SYNC association. Prof. Hansa has been supportive and given us freedom to pursue various activities without any objection with lot of love and affection. She has also provided us with insightful discussions about various projects. She is one of the strongest pillars of the E-SYNC Association and has played a pivotal role in shaping E-SYNC and its daughter clubs. She has more than 5 years of teaching experience and she has published 7 papers in International Journals & Conferences. We are very thankful to you Ma'am and look forward to your support and advice for our future ventures.

ESYNC hosted a kite festival on 11th January, 2014 at

Indus University. The campus became vibrant with this kite

festival, which was celebrated with colours of joy. The chief

guest for the event was the HOD of E&C dept., Prof. R N

Mutagi. There were around 60 students, 19 faculties and

staff members who tried their luck to win the sky. The

Some amazing feedbacks that we got for our hard work.

My experience @ EXCIDUINO The workshop "EXCIDUINO" on Arduino literally opened the world of microcontrollers for me more than any book could possibly do. You know that your work is a success when people from not only your own college (INDUS UNIVERSITY) but also from different colleges across the city have only words of appreciation for you and nothing else. The workshop was conducted in University campus on Aug 1-2, 2014. The main part of the workshop being the Arduino microcontroller not only emphasized on its theoretical concepts but also was also on its practical application. The seminar was conducted by Priyank Mistry, a person who himself has extraordinary experiences from his real life ventures in this subject. Amazing work Esync, really looking forward to more workshops like this. Kudos to Team - Esync. -Mihir Bansal 5th Sem E.C.

Sayonara, a Bollywood themed farewell to our

seniors of 2010 batch was celebrated with great pomp and

joy. The event was graced by our HOD Prof. R N Mutagi,

our professors and students of all the semesters. The event

was anchored by some great orators with flamboyance and

captivated the audience with their wit and humor. A

variety of innovative and interactive games were

conducted for the entertainment of the seniors which

included a unique kind of housie, Antakshari with a great

twist and performances by our junior most Hrithiks and

Arijits enthralling all. A special unplugged version of hit

songs were sung by Chiranjiv Vaghela. The final year

students got all emotional and nostalgic about their college

life as they shared an amazing rapport with their faculties

and friends. Priyank Mistry and Harsh Patel, ex-President,

Esync briefly shared their experiences. Mementos were

given to all the final year students as a remembrance in the

form of scrolls and at the end of the programme lip-

smacking refreshments were served along with a

performance by our all time favourites Premal Mehta and

Priyank Srivastava. The highlight for the event was the

photo-booth where funky props were used and engaged

one and all.

serene blue sky with colourful kites looked splendid.

Besides winning the sky, ESYNC aimed to win the hearts of

the poor by distributing clothes collected during the kite

festival. The main vision of the event was ” Like the kites,

ESYNC too soars high to touch the skies, to be the best in

the world.”

T his column will give you a glimpse of our professors so that we can get to know about them. In this edition we interviewed our H.O.D Prof. R N Mutagi. Prof. R N Mutagi is a senior member of “ IEEE Communication Society ” and “ Signal Processing Society ”, “Fellow of Institute of Electronics and Telecom Engineering ”, “ Fellow of Broadcast Engineering Society ” and Professional Engineer of Ontario, Canada. Working for 27 years at the Space Application Center in ISRO, he contributed to the development of analog

and digital satellite communication systems for major sitcom projects, which included ”SITE”, ”STEP”,

”APPLE”, and India’s first geo – synchronous GSAT satellite which showed his different position with increasing

responsibility. He worked with Canadian Aerospace Companies, managed a design team for development of S-

band transponders for the Japanese H2 transfer vehicle. Here is an excerpt from his interview:-

H.O.D Prof. R N Mutagi

1.) You have a lot of experiences that we could learn from. Could share some of your experiences at ISRO with us? I joined ISRO in 1972 and my first project was a distance education experiment, it was a country wide experiment and we developed the hardware for a direct satellite reception. Presently, you are all aware that you use all these direct reception sets and receive direct video from satellite. It’s very common today, even a small kid knows, but it was different back then. We were the first in India to develop the hardware for a receiver that receives information directly from satellite. Initially it was analog based. That was the experiment for distance education. We set up our system in 2400 most remote places in 6 states so that the people there could get education and information about farming, fishing and all such topics were

taught to them through this. Initially it was an experimental project and subsequently it became a actual system and somewhere around 1980 I converted this analog transmission to digital so that several users can simultaneously use that transponder. That was my contribution in converting analog to digital.

2.) Suppose you had a great idea and you were told that you cannot implement it. How did you react and how did you overcome it? That’s a tricky question (laughs). Most of the ideas that I generated…well, I was lucky in that context because I proposed my ideas every 6 months. In ISRO every six months they conduct a budget review and the engineers are supposed to give their proposals, ask for the budget, ask for people and carry out the project… every six months I used to give a new topic, get the budget

and get started. Sometimes. I had more than one idea so I used to share them with my colleagues. For example, a lot of idea about the spread spectrum techniques was given by me to my colleague who started that project and successfully they conducted that experiment via satellite. A lot of these systems that you study now like TDMA , SSMA they were all conducted by ISRO as experimental projects in early 80’s and were conducted using our own or foreign satellites. For example TDMA we conducted using the French satellite SYMPHONY and subsequently we conducted other researches using our APPLE satellite.

3.) Apart from academics what other co-curricular activities are you interested in? I have tried every sport. I was a cricket player in my college and also played for ISRO for many years. I travelled a lot for these

- Sharon Benedict 5th Sem E.C.

- K. Subhashree 3rd Sem E.C.

matches. Played on inter-center level. We had a lot of tournaments between elite institutes like IIM, PRL, NID, ISRO. I used to play carrom, table tennis etc. I have many certificates too. So yes, I used to be a sportsman but nowadays, I don’t even watch the matches on TV. I think it is a waste of time for me but I had lot of interest. There was a time when the first football world cup series aired, I used to wake up at 3 a.m. to watch the match but now I don’t feel like it maybe its because of my age.

4.) As you said you were interested in sports and played a lot in your college days. So, do you think if you were not an engineer or a professor you would have been a sportsman? No, I don’t think I was interested in becoming a professional sportsman. What I feel is that engineering profession is a great profession. All of you are becoming engineers, be proud of yourself because engineers provide everything in this world. Look around yourself and show me one piece which is not made by engineers, if it is not natural it is made by engineers. That’s why I feel proud. I didn’t want to be a doctor, if everybody is healthy you don’t need a doctor, if nobody does anything wrong you don’t need a lawyer, but engineering is a real job and I like being an engineer and I want all of you to be engineers.

5.) Are you a movie buff or do you like reading novels. Which is your favourite movie or novel? I like both. When I went for a vacation I saw almost three movies in each night. I used to sleep at three o’clock in the

morning and get up at nine. I am a big time fan of movies and my all time favourite was the “Great Escape”, I must have watched it like how many times…I don’t know I lost count. I also like reading books, I read all types of books and not just text books but it takes time and nowadays I don’t have much time so I haven’t read many books recently but I do love reading. I have read a lot of Agatha Christie books, Conan Doyle books-Sherlock Holmes, R.K Narayan and recently Chetan Bhagat, Dan Brown. I love R.K Narayan, he is my favourite, I have read all of his books.

6.) What do you think about the students of the present EC department? Do you think they have potential? Any weak points you may have observed in them?

I think they have potential they just have to groomed in a proper way, they have to be encouraged, they need some push, but they have the potential, they can do anything, that I am sure about. So, from my side I am trying my best to get them interested in the courses, the topics that are important. When it comes to weak points, I have to say in context of the student community in this

country, they are mainly interested in getting good marks…mugging up everything and getting good marks but that’s not how its supposed to be. Lets say because of some reason you were not able to score good, that does not make you a bad student. My advise to the students is not to worry about the grades and concentrate more on understanding.

7.) What do you think about the efforts made by the newly formed E-Sync association? We are planning to make this club a national level club within the next three years. What are your views regarding that? It’s great. I think it should have come much earlier. In fact, under this banner you are able to do a lot of things and there are so many ideas you have so it’s really great. It’s really great that you are planning to take this initiative to national level and I hope you all succeed.

8.) You have already published a book: “Digital Communication: Theory, Technique and Application”, is there another one in process? Yes, right now I am working on Satellite Communication. It’s supposed to have been completed by September, but it is delayed and I am sure next year people can read it.

9.) Finally, what are you planning to do in the future? Play with my grandchildren.

I didn’t want to be a doctor, if everybody is healthy you don’t need a doctor, if nobody does anything wrong you don’t need a lawyer, but engineering is a real job and I like being an engineer and I want all of you to be engineers.

To construct a circuit And to do it right

Attach wires and a bulb And there will be light,

But remember the rule And make it complete

Battery cell, wires And bulb must all meet,

A switch can be used To break the flow

With no electricity There will be no glow,

Always take care Using electricity

And remember the rules In this ditty.

Nowadays cell phones play a vital role in our life.

So I am writing an app review of most useful app

for students the Camscanner. This app is used to

digitize the hard copies, so ‘one book many

readers’. I want to share my usage of this app

with you. I have nearly scanned 20,000 pages

approximately. So when you don't find any book

in the library and you want to save the money by

not buying an expensive book then you choose to

download a soft copy from Internet but many

books are not available easily on Internet, Then

this app can save your money. You can take the

pictures of the book and convert it into the well

known format pdf. By digitizing your copies you

can read this books on your computer and handy

devices like Tablets pc and smartphones. This app

also have cloud storage integration if you want to

access your data from another device then cloud

storage feature is very useful.

Camscanner gives you the option to

make your clicked photo to look like

photocopy (Xerox) this feature is known

as magic colour. This app have batch

mode shooting option and single photo

shooting option too, so it gives all the

manual control to user. If you have Indus

university email id then you can use the

premium features of the Camscanner

without paying extra for the features.

I know, we all click hundred of

photos of our friends notebook

or something else and then we

read but they are organized till

they are in our cell phone but if

we want to send all the clicked

images I think its a boring job,

so Camscanner club this

pictures and make one pdf, so

you can send this file easily to

anyone . So i want to suggest that use this app

and save paper and save your money by digitizing

the hard copies. This app is available on iOS

Appstore, Google Playstore and Windows App

Store.

THE FAULT IN OUR STARS

- Shreya Choithani

5th Sem E.C.

“ The Fault In Our Stars “, the most anticipated

novel by John Green is breathtaking in its ability

to alternate between humour & raw tragedy. It is

a story about Hazel, 16, who is alive thanks to an

experimental drug that is keeping her lung cancer

in check. In order to get her to have a life, her

parents insist that she attends a support group

where she meets a young boy named Augustus

Waters. He is seventeen, charming, witty, a

former basketball player, sarcastic and is

recovering from Osteosarcoma (a rare form of

bone cancer). Hazel & Augustus immediately hit

it off & embark on a roller coaster ride of

romance, sadness & love while searching for the

author of their favorite book AN

IMPERIAL AFFLICTION in

Amsterdam. Their relationship is

all the more miraculous given

that Hazel’s other companion is

her oxygen tank & Augustus

joking about his prosthetic leg.

They make “OKAY” their word

which signifies the simple bond

they share despite the less-than-

ordinary circumstances that are

thrust upon them. While on

their trip, Augustus breaks heart-rending news to

Hazel & both of their worlds fall apart. TFIOS is

one of the most unpretentious love stories told in

a very heartwarming manner. Expect to laugh,

cry & smile in this masterpiece. “Don’t cry

because it’s over, smile because it happened”,

pretty much sums up the story.

Underwater Robots In recent years, robotic underwater vehicles have become more common in a variety of industrial and civil sectors. It can explore seas and rivers, gathering in groups to solve problems together, if they learn to cooperate. How can they teach robots? Engineers in the Portuguese town of Porto are working on SUNRISE , a European research project developing drone submarines, which talk to each other using sound signals. Computer Science Professor Chiara Petrioli is the project coordinator: “What you see here are underwater robots that are able to communicate and cooperate with each other, creating the so-called ‘Internet of underwater things’,” she explains. “It’s a novel concept that allows different devices, such as sensors and robots, to exchange information. This opens up new ways to monitor our oceans, lakes and rivers.” A group of robots each carrying a particular set of sensors will scour the seabed looking for a lost object or a chemical leak. By working together, they can collect

a lot of information in a short space of time. How the robots communicate with each other? The acoustic communication is very similar to how humans speak. The vehicles talk to each other underwater, using a range of frequencies that goes from the frequencies produced by our voices to the inaudible acoustic spectrum. What can robots see underwater?

The submarines transmit data to a control center on the ground. Their exact position and some environmental factors such as the

temperature and chemical composition of the sea water – are then displayed. How the drones are controlled? Several vehicles operate in the area at the same time and we control them all from this center. They give them instructions like ‘Move from point A to B’, and they monitor their movement almost in real time. They use an acoustic channel when they’re underwater

or radio when at the surface.. Their waterproof casing allows the submarines to dive to depths of up to a hundred meters. Depending on the mission, they can be configured differently to collect record and transmit

various types of data. Along with the acoustic modem that allows the submarine to communicate underwater, it has environmental sensors, a computer system that

allows it to navigate underwater,

batteries that keep it going for eight hours and modules for radio and satellite

communication. Crucial for search and

rescue operations, an on-board sonar device finds sunken objects by emitting pulses of sound and listening for echoes. It has already helped to find a lost container in the port of Porto. They are useful for three main applications: first, for port security. Second, for environmental monitoring, which is very important to us. And third, for inspections of the ships that dock at the port. This technology will give us a much deeper understanding of our world. And that’s an essential element for the future of humanity.

YES!!! THEY DID IT !!! (PLACEMENTS 2014)

T he journey growing up as a person went very well with Indus. There were many

ups and downs in this whole journey but that vigor kept me going. Though I started

very well academically there were some setbacks too. I wanted to enjoy college life

as in all its spheres . I became coordinator for all the sports as well as cultural

events. I also performed several skits and mimes in cultural fests and was awarded runners up medal

in quiz couple of times. Somehow, I managed to get an internship in Honeywell Automation India

Limited at Pune which proved beneficial for me in many ways. This undergrad phase was full of joy,

got some really amazing friends for life, also learnt the harsh reality of life and had some failures too. I

wanted to pursue my dreams of studying abroad. There was much needed support from the Indus

faculties. So far it is going very well. I got 50% scholarship in my course here due to my scholastic

achievements in Indus. Initially it was a very tough time dealing with all the things here on my own,

but now it has become a part of my life .I also started working here as a front desk assistant. That was

my first paying job. Later, I got an internship which will build my base as a full time career in Supply

chain. All I want to convey to you all is develop your overall personality not just by studying all the

time like a geek and also not by just passing time on all the other activities. Both of them have equal

importance in achieving what you want in your life. Wish you all, all the best in your journey of life.

[8] Distances from you to certain cities are Berlin 200

miles, Paris 300 miles, Rome 400 miles and

Amsterdam 300 miles. How far is Cardiff?

[9] If you count from 1 to 100, how many 7′s will you pass

on the way?

[10] A man’s basic pay for a 40 hours week is Rs.

200.Overtimes is paid at 25% above the basic rate. In

a certain week, he worked overtime and his total was

Rs.300 He therefore, worked for a total of how many

hours?

Consider Fig.(a) below where the distance between point A and C via B (AB+BC) is same

as the direct distance through the staircase path because all those vertical sections

equal AB and the horizontal sections equal BC.

In Fig.(b) the length of vertical and horizontal sections is reduced and yet the distance

AB+BC will be equal to the staircase distance AC for the same reason. This is true if we

continue to reduce the step size in the staircase path as in Fig.(c) and Fig.(d). If we

continue to reduce the step size indefinitely, in the limit, the step distance AC tends to

be a straight line AC as in Fig.(e), which means AB+BC = AC. But according to Pythagoras

theorem AC = √(AB2+BC2). What is wrong?

GTUPEDIA – “For Student By

Students” Nature of the initiative FOR STUDENT BY STUDENT

GTUPEDIA works for the welfare of the students as well as

towards building a bright future in the direction where they

seem to have lost and find no answers GTUPEDIA addresses

them all with a view that it will enhance the education level

and polish the system Abstract it works as a link between

students, faculty, material available on net, projects, media

and many more things the unique feature about our initiative

is that we provide every relevant information of the needed at

one place on one go.. this helps the user in reducing workload

as well as getting through irrelevant information and so. and

not only working towards solution wee even discover new

problems work on it allow every user to work over it and that

helps us bring out the best solution and it will then be

available through. The system so developed would even be

beneficial to the students belonging to the remote areas

where they even find difficulty using internet there were

present a user friendly , directive a lot more to say and go on

GTUPEDIA Key achievement We have organized various

seminars for students for Basic Fundamentals of Google

through which they can learn how to search through internet

and learn what they want to.. In addition to we have built up

team in robotics and they are going to build a huge network

through all GTU colleges in robotics field. We are now in

Media Sponsors and event promotion for social cause in many

colleges till date officially we are collaborated with more then

4 Events.
