  Electrical Engineering Intern, Rwandatel (telephony company); 2010-2011

-       Observed Base Station Controller (BSC) and Base Transceiver Station (BTS) of Huwaie via OSS clients.

-       Performed radio planning with Test Mobile System (TEMS) cell planner, including composite coverage synthesis, co-channel and coverage and adjacent channel interference predictions.

Microsoft Certified Information Technology Professional (MCITP)

  Design of down-converting frequency translator: -40 dBm power and frequency of 5.8 GHz at input of LNA:

-       Mixer, VCO, LPF, gain block and power amplifier were connected to a top level simulation;

-       Output power of +25 dBm and output frequency of 2.4 GHz at end of block;

-       Design completed in ADS.

  Microwave-range broadband dark eyes antenna design and analysis:

-       Dark eyes antennas were miniaturized planar antennas of resistive surface within its geometry, which enabled broadband behavior to be achieved;

-       Return loss and radiated electric field were calculated at different values of the resistive surface;

-       Design carried out in HFSS.

  Design of a 20 dB single-section coupled line coupler:

-       Used strip and micro strip lines with ground plane spacing, 0.32 cm, and characteristic impedance, 50 Ω;

-       Design frequency of 2.4 GHz.

  Segmental transmission line and signal integrity evaluation:

-       Proved a segmental transmission line (STL) will improve signal integrity degradation;

-       Transmitted signal at GHz rate with a transmission line;

-       Broadcasted the same signal with an STL and compared the results.
