Why Previous Year's Question Papers Are Essential?

Previous year question papers are essential to know the pattern of an examination. You should go through at least the last 10 years' question papers before sitting for any examination.

UGC NET Electronic Science (Code 88) Exam Overview

The UGC NET Electronics Science examination consists of two papers. Paper 1 covers General Teaching & Research Aptitude, while Paper 2 focuses specifically on Subject Code 88. To succeed, candidates must master topics such as:

  • Semiconductor Devices & IC Fabrication
  • Network Theory and Signals & Systems
  • Digital Electronics and Microprocessors (8085/8051)
  • Electromagnetics and Antennas

Using previous year question papers is the most effective way to understand the weightage of these topics.

📈 Topic-wise Weightage Analysis

Based on 2023-2024 trends, here is the approximate number of questions asked from each module:

Semiconductor Devices: 12-15 Questions
Digital & Microprocessors: 10-12 Questions
Electromagnetics (EMFT): 8-10 Questions

🎁 Bonus: UGC NET Paper 1 Resources

Don't ignore the General Aptitude paper! It carries 100 marks and is key to securing JRF.

Hybrid Beamforming | Page 1

Beamforming Techniques Hybrid Beamforming... Page 1 | Page 2 | Hybrid Beamforming: Hybrid beam formation was developed to address some of the limitations of digital pre-coding approaches. Every antenna element is connected to an RF chain in digital pre-coding (beam forming) method. We also know that each RF chain is in charge of providing a separate data stream between the transmitter and the receiver. We know that a larger number of independent data streams leads to higher data rates. It has a spatial multiplexing feature for MIMO. As a result, we may assume that switching from MIMO to massive MIMO will benefit us more in terms of spatial multiplexing in massive MIMO, where each antenna is coupled to a single RF chain. We'll proceed with a definition of hybrid beam forming. Overview of hybrid beam forming with example: Unlike digital beam forming, more than one antenna element is connected to a single RF chain in hybr...

MATLAB Code for Rms Delay Spread

RMS delay spread is crucial when you need to know how much the signal is dispersed in time due to multipath propagation, the spread (variance) around the average. In high-data-rate systems like LTE, 5G, or Wi-Fi, even small time dispersions can cause ISI. RMS delay spread is directly related to the amount of ISI in such systems. RMS Delay Spread [↗] Delay Spread Calculator Enter delays (ns) separated by commas: Enter powers (dB) separated by commas: Calculate   The above calculator Converts Power to Linear Scale: It correctly converts the power values from decibels (dB) to a linear scale. Calculates Mean Delay: It accurately computes the mean excess delay, which is the first moment of the power delay profile. Calculates RMS Delay Spread: It correctly calculates the RMS delay spread, defined as the square root of the second central moment of the power delay profile.   MATLAB Code  clc...

Amplitude Shift Keying (ASK) Modulation & Demodulation (with Simulation)

Amplitude Shift Keying (ASK): Signal Analysis and Characterization Theoretical Overview: Amplitude Shift Keying (ASK) represents a primary digital modulation technique wherein information is encoded through discrete variations in the carrier signal's instantaneous amplitude. In a Binary ASK (BASK) framework, the modulation process maps binary data onto two distinct amplitude levels. Specifically, the binary '1' (mark) is conveyed by a sinusoidal carrier with amplitude A c and frequency f c over a bit interval T b , while the binary '0' (space) is represented by a null signal state. This particular signaling method is widely recognized as On-Off Keying (OOK) . It is technically realized by gating a carrier oscillator with a unipolar baseband sequence, effectively performing a product modulation that shifts the baseband spectrum to the carrier frequency. ASK Transmitter Architecture: ...

Frequency Shift Keying (FSK) Modulation & Demodulation (with Simulation)

Frequency Shift Keying (FSK) Theoretical Foundations: Frequency Shift Keying (FSK) is a discrete frequency modulation scheme wherein the digital information is encoded via instantaneous shifts in the carrier signal's frequency. The fundamental implementation is Binary FSK (BFSK), which maps binary data onto two distinct, discrete spectral states. A binary '1' (the "mark" state) is represented by a carrier frequency \( f_1 \), while a binary '0' (the "space" state) corresponds to frequency \( f_2 \). Each symbol is sustained for a bit interval denoted by \( T_b \). FSK Transmitter Characterization: The mathematical model for the modulated BFSK output \( s(t) \) is defined as: \[ s(t) = \begin{cases} A_c \cos(2\pi f_1 t), & \text{for } m = 1 \\ A_c \cos(2\pi f_2 t), & \text{for } m = 0 \end{cases} \] ...

QPSK Online Simulator (Signal Generation)

Simulator for QPSK Modulation Quadrature (4-PSK) Bitstream (Even length) Carrier Freq (Hz) Samples Per Symbol Run QPSK Simulation The Math Behind QPSK Quadrature Phase Shift Keying (QPSK) is a form of digital modulation that transmits two bits per symbol by changing the phase of a carrier wave. s(t) = A cos(2πf c t + θ n ) Phase (θ n ): Each pair of bits (dibit) corresponds to a specific phase shift. In Gray coding, we use: "00" → π/4 (45°) "01" → 3π/4 (135°) "11" → 5π/4 (225°) "10" → 7π/4 (315°) Efficiency: Since 4 phases are used, QPSK carries double the data of BPSK in the same bandwidth. ...
