Industrial Visit 2018

Industrial Visit @ Mahanagar Telephone Nigam Limited (MTNL) – 2018

• TIMSCDR have arranged an Industrial Visit to Mahanagar Telephone Nigam Limited (MTNL) on 12^th April and 13^th April 2018 for Semester-IVstudents.
• The visit started with a brief introduction and overview of Mahanagar Telephone Nigam Limited (MTNL).
• Students visited the following three sites which form the main part of any telephone exchange:
• Antenna site.
• Base Trans receiver station (BTS)
• Base Station Controller (BSC)
• At the BSC (Base Station Subsystem) centre the equipment’s were manufactured by Motorola. The GSM mobile station (or mobile phone) communicates with other parts of the system through the base station system. The base transceiver station (BTS) handles the radio interface to the mobile station. The base transceiver station is the radio equipment (transceivers and antennas).
  The students got the opportunity to practically observe the alarm conditions of BSC when the trainer disengaged the cooling system that resulted in a warning.
• Students were taken up to the terrace to have a breathtaking view of the city and observe the various antennas used at MTNL. The Antennas were mounted on the top of the MTNL building. A metal rod or dish was used to transmit as well as receive signal.
  At the Main Switching Centre, the switching mechanism and design of antennas were explained. These switching equipments are monitored by a server which takes care of all the modulation and demodulation operation. The switching equipments were of ‘Siemens’ and ‘Himachal Electronics Ltd.’
  The Industrial Visit to MTNL definitely improved the students’ understanding of Mobile Communications systems and widened their scope of thinking.

Industrial Visit @ Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC) – 2018

• TIMSCDR have arranged an Industrial Visit to Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC) on 11^th April 2018 and 3^rd May 2018 for Semester-II students.
• The visit started with a brief introduction and overview of Bhaba Atomic Research Centre (BARC) and the students got a chance to see India’s largest nuclear research reactor Dhruva. The students were given a demonstration of how the entire functioning of the reactor is automated and how IT plays a role in it. The students were also instructed about environment monitoring around nuclear reactors and radioactive waste management.
•  The students visited the laboratory of Nuclear Agriculture Facility in BARC. They were given an idea about how to use of radioactive materials helps in increasing in agriculture output, food preservation, and strengthened post-harvest technology.
• The students visited to the SUPERCOMPUTING facility, where they were introduced to ANUPAM -XENON/128-bit supercomputer which was developed by BARC in July, 2002.This supercomputer is being used for solving very large computational problems in the fields of Electronics Structures and Molecular Dynamics Simulations, Radiation Chemistry, Atmospheric Chemistry and Computational Fluid Dynamics.
