Instructions for preparation of report of the class project and grading
Definition: Project means reading and understanding the content of Chapter 12 of the
class text and executing Parts I through VI of Section 12.2.
Report: Your finding should be presented in a report of not more than 8 pages of double
spaced text, followed by as many figures as you deem necessary. However, be creative
and attempt to combine figures wherever possible to deliver a more readable report. Your
report should include the followings:
• An abstract and a conclusion each of a length 150 words or less.
• Section 1: An introduction of about 1 page. This should summarize your
findings in more details than your abstract.
• Sections 2 through 7 should discuss the details of your results in each of the
Parts I through VI of the project and the theory behind each development.
• Properly label all figures and put detailed caption for each figures. The captions
should be concise at the same time such that if I look at them, I can capture most
of the work you have done without reading your report.

Friday, Dec. 11, 2009. e-mail me (Farhang@ece.utah.edu) your report (in a pdf file) and
