Narrowband PLC Harmonic Analyzer Developed a cost-effective, portable monitoring device for Smart Grid powerline communications focused on the narrowband range of 144KHz. Designed the input attenuator and bandpass filter circuit using rail-to-rail op amps specific to single supply applications. Waveform sampled and processed using FFT libraries. Spectral output sent to microcontroller display.

Debug hardware failures and message errors found on MIL-STD-1553 data bus and Radar Display Computer for military aircraft. Debug radio communication using RF spectrum analyzers and high bandwidth oscilloscope. Surface mount soldering development boards and perform 'bed of nails' test. Verified prototypes in lab using data sheets and developed custom scripts to validate system requirements.
