2. Project Profile
Project 1 Stability Triage
Description Triaging the stability issues to respective subsystems
Role • Identifying, root cause of the different stability issues including WLAN Host and
FW, APSS, NSS with the help of Trace32 simulator and Qualcomm proprietary
tools and providing the necessary inputs to the tech teams
• Actively involved in designing and developing the automation framework for
triaging
• Bug fixing and enhancements of the automation framework
• Actively involved in manual triaging of Linux issues using the various client
specific debuggers
Environment • Platform: Linux and Windows
• Language: Perl
• Tools: GNU ARM Tool Chain, Qualcomm’s specific tools.
Project 2 Radio Resource Management(IEEE802.11k) in WLAN
Description Wireless LAN (WLAN) Radio Measurements enable STAs to understand the radio
environment in which they exist. The measurements enable adjustment of STA
operation to better suit the radio environment.
Some of the request/report measurements involved are
• Beacon
• Frame
• Channel Load
• STA Statistics
• Neighbor Report
• Link Measurement
Role • Design and Development for the Frame Request/Report and unit testing for the
same
Environment • Platform: Linux
• Language: C
• Tools: GNU Tool chain, Wireshark, Omni peek
