Welcome to the Department of Electrical Engineering (EE) at IIT Kanpur. The EE department is one of the oldest departments at IIT Kanpur. It was one of the first five departments with which IIT Kanpur started in 1960. Subsequently, the Advanced Centre for Electronics Systems (ACES) came into existence in early 1970 by a grant from the Ministry of Defence to undertake manpower training and to carry out research and development related to defense. Subsequently, several sponsored projects in many subject areas with large interdisciplinary content were handled through ACES. ACES is now an integral part of the EE department and houses the majority of EE laboratories and facilities. The department is currently the largest multidisciplinary department at IIT Kanpur. It covers practically all sub-disciplines in Electrical and Communication Engineering including Power Systems, Power Electronics, Microwaves, RF techniques, Microelectronics, VLSI, Photonics, Control Systems, Robotics, Speech, and Audio Processing, Computer Vision, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Wireless Communication, Computer Networks, Future wireless networks like 5G/6G, Wireless sensor networks, and IoT networks.

- Shielded Anechoic Chamber:
- A Radio frequency (RF) anechoic chamber is a closed RF echo free space that simulates infinite free space condition inside a room. It is constructed by covering the inner walls of the room by RF absorbers made of carbon impregnated foam shaped in the form of pyramids (Fig. 1). The size of the pyramids and the carbon composition determines the lowest frequency that can be effectively absorbed. Larger sized cones are capable of absorbing lower frequency waves.
- Anechoic chamber are used for measurement of antenna radiation pattern, electromagnetic compatibility, radar cross section, etc. Apart from creating a reflection free environment, an anechoic chamber should also suppress the unwanted signals penetrating into the chamber and interfering with the measurements. This is achieved by first lining the walls of the chamber by high permeability metal sheets and then with the RF absorber material. The metal cage is grounded using a specially prepared low conductivity earth pit connection to provide a zero potential cage. The metal cage shields the measurement space from external interferences.
- The chamber dimension are 7 m x 6 m x 3.3 m (LxWxH). It can be used for conducting measurements at frequencies from 1 GHz to 26 GHz. The quiet zone is 2m x 0.8 m x 0.8 m (WxHxL) at 1 GHz, and 2m x 0.3 m x 0.3 m (WxHxL) between 10 GHz and 26 GHz centered at a distance of about 4 m from the transmitting antenna. The shielded effectiveness is -50 dB at 1 GHz and – 40 dB from 2 to 18 GHz.
- VSWR Measurement and Impedance Calculation. Measure the VSWR using normal method and double minima method. Measure the frequency using the frequency meter and compare with calculated guided wavelength. Calculate the input impedance of a given load from the VSWR measurements and shift in the minima

Computing and Simulating facilities
- IE3D: IE3D is a full-wave, method-of-moments based electromagnetic simulator which solves the current distribution on 3D and multilayer structures of general shape. It is used in the design of MMICs, RFICs, LTCC circuits, microwave/millimeter-wave circuits, IC interconnects and packages, HTS circuits, patch antennas, wire antennas, and other RF/wireless antennas.
- WIPLD: WIPL-D is a software for Circuit and 3D EM Simulation for RF & Microwave Applications. WIPL-D is a frequency domain method of moments (MoM) code that enables very accurate and fast EM simulation of arbitrary 3D structures for predicting antenna performance (free space and in-situ) and radar cross section (RCS). WIPL-D employ higher order basis functions (HOBF) that allow for a great reduction (3 to 10 times) in the number of unknowns required to model a given problem.
- HFSS: The HFSS stands for High Frequency Strucutre Simulator.HFSS is a high performance full wave electromagnetic (EM) field simulator for arbitrary 3D volumetric passive device modelling . It integrates simulation,visualization, solid modelling, and automation where solutions to the 3D EM problems are quickly and accurately obtained.HFSS can be used to calculate parameters such as S-Parameters,Resonant Frequency, and Fields. Its typical uses include:Package Modelling - BGA, QFP, Flip-Chip PCB Board Modelling - Power/ Ground planes, Mesh Grid Grounds,Backplanes, Silicon/GaAs-Spiral Inductors, Transformers, EMC/EMI - Mobile Communications - Patches, Dipoles, Horns, ConformalCell Phone Antennas, Quadrafilar Helix, Specific Absorption Rate ( SAR),Infinite Arrays, Radar Section (RCS), Frequency Selective Surface (FSS) Connectors - Coax, SFP/XFP, Backplane, Transitions?

Condition Monitoring of Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors:
Patent Application Pending
Existing single phase direct grid feeding solar PV inverter are based on voltage source inverter topologies. Aluminum electrolytic capacitors (AEC) are used as an energy storage element in these inverters, to limit second harmonic voltage ripple to a low value and to maximize the PV power extraction efficiency (PEE). AECs are popularly used due to their high energy density as compared to other capacitors. However, AEC degrades due to its electrolyte loss with time, which leads to rise in equivalent series resistance (ESR) and fall in capacitance value. Further, the rate of loss in electrolyte increases with temperature. This leads to increase in magnitude of ripples in PV voltage with ageing. This reduces the PEE, which results in less power availability from solar PV system. Increase in voltage ripple could also lead to failure of inverter.
To avoid this, we have developed online techniques to monitor the health of AEC in solar PV inverters. These techniques would provide timely indication of the capacitor (AEC) failure, thereby avoiding downtime of the solar PV system.
High Reliable Solar Inverter
Indian Patent, Appl. No. 2912/MUM/2011
Life of solar PV panels is more than 20 years. However, inverters are less reliable and typically have 3-7 years of life span, beyond which high failure rate of inverters is expected. Failures of power electronic converters are mainly due to the following components: (i) Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors (AEC), and (ii) Switching semiconductor devices.
We have proposed a high reliable solar inverter topology. It is based on current source converter, which uses inductors to store energy instead of AEC, thereby increasing the operational life. The proposed inverter is a transformer-less pulse width modulated (PWM) current source inverter. Further, this inverter offers inherent voltage boost feature, which avoids the use of additional dc-dc converter in case of low voltage solar PV string. This improves the conversion efficiency due to single stage conversion.
Dynamic Voltage Restorer
Technology Transferred
Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR) is a custom power device used in electrical distribution system for power quality improvement. The main application of DVR is for voltage compensation of sensitive loads against voltage disturbances like sag and swell in distribution lines. A 5kVA, IGBT based, digitally controlled single phase DVR is designed and developed. It is capable of regulating the load voltage within 2% of its nominal value (230V) for grid voltage variation of 185V to 265V.
