Minicomputer Student Projects in On-Line Communications Signal Processing and Optimal Control,

Abstract

Two Master's level student projects are described stressing the on-line real time use of a minicomputer as an element of an overall system. Emphasis is placed on using the dedicated minicomputer as an integral part of the system being developed and as a systems tool rather than as a simulator. The specific aspects of the dedicated minicomputer which makes it well suited for engineering applications and for use in student projects as well as the educational benefits derived from this type of individual projects are discussed. The two projects in communications and controls are then described in detail including their results. (Author)
