Hairpin filter designElectronics - 05-07-2020

Hairpin filter design

Electronic filters are circuits which remove unwanted frequency components from the signal to enhance wanted ones. The hairpin topology is a microstrip band-pass filter for the gigahertz band (UHF). They can be very useful with SDR to improve the reception. This article features a Javascript generator for these. It also shows their design and my results.

Acoustic beamsteering with a speaker arrayElectronics - 14-03-2020

Acoustic beamsteering with a speaker array

Beamforming is a signal processing technique to get a directionnal signal transmission from an array of emitters. By controlling the relative phase and amplitude difference between the elements, we can shape the emission/reception pattern according to our needs. For this project, I designed, built and measured a phased linear array of speakers.

Reaction Wheel Attitude ControlElectronics - 28-11-2019

Reaction Wheel Attitude Control

Reaction wheels are a way for spacecrafts such as the Hubble Space Telescope to achieve 3-axes attitude detumbling and control. It uses the conservation of angular momentum. For this project, I made a model of a satellite with a reaction wheel to demo the effect and play with the parameters/control algorithm.

OpenEMG Arduino SensorElectronics - 18-06-2019

OpenEMG Arduino Sensor

Electromyography (EMG) is a commonly used electrodiagnostic medicine technique for evaluating and recording the electrical activity produced by skeletal muscles. OpenEMG is a project that aims to create an open-source, easy-to-make EMG module that can capture muscle information from Arduino or any other micro-controller. With this module, users can measure muscle activity and use the data to explore various applications such as robotics and prosthetics.

EDF motor designElectronics - 19-02-2019

EDF motor design

Electric ducted fans (EDF) are an efficient way of producing thrust for an aircraft. However, there are a lot of variables that can be fine tuned to optimize their performance: body curves, fan blade pitch, duct length, number of fan blades, etc. Using both simulation and experimental results, the objective of this small project is to enhance the thrust per input Watt of my design.

ECE3SAT - Helmholtz CoilsElectronics - 11-02-2018

ECE3SAT - Helmholtz Coils

Helmholtz coils are a pair of facing coils that generate an almost uniform magnetic field along one axis. In my end-of-study project at ECE Paris, we designed, built, and qualified a full 3D Helmoltz coil magnetic simulation environment for CubeSats. This environment enables the testing and verification of magnetometers and magnetorquers for the ADCS subsystem.
