The objective of this project is the revitalization of an advanced senior-level design project laboratory in the wireless communications field. The design of a large mixed analog-digital project serves as a capstone design experience for the seniors by merging concepts from circuit, system, communication, and linear system theory into a single practical project. Only through the use of theory learned in lecture can the students truly grasp the material. The wireless project, incorporating some digital communications, helps to tie together many of the concepts of electrical engineering. The large size of the project, requiring about 10 students, is purposely configured to simulate an industrial product development cycle. The project is divided into smaller tasks that subteams of about three students can design and build. During the course of the project, each subteam is required to present to the entire team a review of their circuit specifications, a review of their design, and finally a review of the experimental results. Written documentation of the experimental results once the entire system is integrated is required. This experience helps the students to learn teamwork and communication skills and to see engineering concepts at work.

该项目的目标是振兴无线通信领域的高级设计项目实验室。一个大型模拟-数字混合项目的设计将电路、系统、通信和线性系统理论的概念融合到一个实际项目中，为高年级学生提供了顶峰的设计体验。只有运用课堂上学到的理论知识，学生才能真正掌握材料。这个无线项目结合了一些数字通信，有助于将电气工程的许多概念联系在一起。该项目规模庞大，需要大约10名学生，是为了模拟工业产品开发周期而特意配置的。该项目被分成几个较小的任务，由大约三名学生组成的子团队可以设计和构建。在项目过程中，每个子团队需要向整个团队提交对其电路规格的审查、对其设计的审查，以及最后对实验结果的审查。在整个系统集成后，需要对实验结果进行书面记录。这一经历有助于学生学习团队合作和沟通技能，并在工作中看到工程概念。
