In the 2nd part of the design project, groups are required to design an antenna capable of detecting a far field signal. Performance and creativity are key factors in this design project. This design project witness great creativity and quality workmanship in the construction of the antenna.Some of the more creative designs include the loop yagi, horn atnennas, quadruple yagi,JTB antenna, cross yagi,the double helix and not forgetting "Lucky" which one of the groups name their antenna. "Lucky" indeed gave its group luck as it was the only antenna which managed to accurately located the antenna that Dr Daniel Pickard placed.
17th April was a night to remember as few groups were still working on the presentation slides while some had to go out in the wee hours of the night searching for the transmitter that Dr Daniel Pickard secretly placed. Indeed, it was placed in one of the rooms at Temasek Labs which was highly inaccessible. The presentation started at 9am where all groups had to present and conclude the antenna projects. We have seen one of the finest presentation quality as the presentation was previously scrutinized by Dr Daniel Pickard, before the final presentation was presented.
It concluded the end of the antenna design project. It was a fun and enriching project. At the end of the day, everyone brought themselves back a tired body but an enriching and relief soul. It is the time for everyone to prepare for their examinations, on behalf of ESP Subclub, wish all ESPians will excel in the coming examination.
