393 – Remote Sensing

You are required to complete the coursework for the module Remote Sensing (UFMFPP-15-3). Please follow all the instructions carefully and ensure the work is done professionally, accurately, and meets academic standards.

————————————-

PART 1: GROUP PROJECT (50%)

————————————-

Topic:

Massive MIMO Technology Based Remote Sensing System

Group Size:

4 students

Task Requirements:

You are required to design, model, simulate, and analyse a wireless instrumentation system based on Massive MIMO technology using MATLAB / SIMULINK.

Your work must include the following:

1. System Design:

– Design a wireless remote sensing system using Massive MIMO.

– Clearly explain all system components (transmitter, receiver, antennas, channels, etc.).

– Justify all design choices.

2. Mathematical Modelling:

– Include all necessary equations and calculations related to:

– Signal transmission

– Channel modeling

– MIMO principles

– Show how Massive MIMO improves system performance.

3. Simulation:

– Implement the full system in MATLAB / SIMULINK.

– Simulate different scenarios (e.g., noise levels, number of antennas, data rates).

4. Performance Evaluation:

– Analyse:

– Bit Error Rate (BER)

– Throughput

– Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR)

– Compare results with traditional systems if possible.

5. Optimization:

– Improve system performance by tuning parameters.

– Explain trade-offs (e.g., complexity vs performance).

6. Results:

– Include graphs, tables, and simulation outputs.

– Clearly explain all results.

7. Discussion:

– Critically analyse system performance.

– Highlight advantages and limitations.

8. Conclusion:

– Summarise findings.

– Suggest future improvements.

Deliverable:

– A professional report (max 5000 words).

– Well-structured with proper headings and Harvard referencing.
