The FDP was sponsored by Technical Education Quality Improvement
Programme (TEQIP) Phase-II, which gave a platform for all the young
faculty members to upgrade their knowledge on wireless networking
towards further research and development.
“Wireless Networking is
revolutionizing our lives. The concept had originated from Kolkata in
1894 when Acharya Jagadish Chandra Bose coined an experiment to generate
and transmit electromagnetic wave. Also the Galena Based Semi-conductor
detector discovered by J C Bose formed the base of such technology used
in present time,” said Prof. Ray during the inaugural session of the
FDP. Moreover Prof. Ray, stressed on the security and power management
aspects in wireless networking which are the happening areas in this
subject. “Switching and leakage current are the basics issues in
optimizing energy in wireless networking,”
said Prof. Ray. Apart
from this, he also gave an example of intelligent cameras which are
installed in managing road traffic in USA for surveillance. “Currently
in this subject which is a critical part of electronic and communication
engineering, multi-parameter optimization is required,” said Prof. Ray.
The
session was also contributed by Prof. Bhabani P. Sinha, who is
currently the Dean of Studies, Indian Statistical Institute (ISI)
Kolkata where he spoke about applications and implications of Wireless
networking. He gave the examples of cordless telephones, cellular mobile
