Founded in 1993, Independent University, Bangladesh (IUB) is one of the oldest and leading private universities in Bangladesh where academic excellence is a tradition, teaching a passion and lifelong learning a habit. IUB currently has more than 9,800 undergraduate and graduate students and over 13,700 alumni. The students of IUB experience an exciting academic life with copious opportunities to explore and nurture their innate talent.
Live in Field Experience (LFE) is a signature course of IUB. It allows IUB students, most of whom come from urban settings, to have an immersive experience of everyday life in rural Bangladesh. Unique in Bangladesh, the overarching idea, which owes its roots to some of the leading social thinkers of this region, is to bridge the gap in knowledge that an urban student has about their rural counterparts. As part of the LFE, which is a mandatory course, small groups of students (usually 5-10, mix of male and female, and English and Bangla medium backgrounds) spend a certain amount of time at different locations in Bangladesh and experience life in the fields.
Training on Vector Network Analyzer and its application Conducted by EEE Lecturer and R&D Officer at BUET
12/05/2024
The IUB EEE department’s Lecturer Mr. Emranul Haque and R&D officer Mr. Nazmus Sakib visited the Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET) on 13 May 2023. They provided training sessions on VNA (Vector Network Analyzer) and its application to the faculty members of BUET.
Vector Network Analyzers (VNAs) are employed for the evaluation of a diverse array of devices, encompassing simple 2-port passive devices like filters, as well as intricate subsystems comprising both passive and active components. Furthermore, the device being tested (referred to as the "device under test" or DUT) can exhibit various forms, ranging from connectors and packaged formats to on-wafer configurations and even encompassing raw materials and measurements of free-space antennas. Over the years, modern VNAs have evolved to cater to the expanding scope of applications, spanning domains such as aerospace/defense, astronomy, high-speed serial data, and homeland security.
Around 20 participants, including professors and lecturers from the departments of EEE, BUET attended the training session. The training was successful and highly appreciated by the participants. This training was possible thanks to the support and guidance of Prof. Feroz Ahmed, Head Dept. of EEE, IUB.
