Activities: Readers Club

Every fortnight after lunch time, the CRG group gathers to discuss a recent

research paper, thereby creating a forum where we can discuss and de-

bate communication related topics based on the study of papers or

books. Its goal is to create a great research understanding atmosphere to

let the knowledge flow between us and bring fruitful ideas and concepts

to life! You want to know more? Join us!

To promote the research environment, some faculty members (notably

Dr. Fahim and Syed Zafi etc) and masters students of telecom department

have started CRG - Communication research group. Basic idea is to facili-

tate research and development in IICT.

CRG Talks Every second week, on Tuesday at 11.00, the CRG Group joins for a gen-

eral meeting. Two speakers from the group are presenting their last re-

sults for further discussion.

IICT Talks The Telecommunication department, of which the CRG Group is a part,

holds Seminar Talks every second Monday of the week at 12.30. External

speakers can present their work to the whole department at once.

Cake alert The group has the habit to bring cakes for any important event, like for

new publications, birthdays, arrivals and departures, prizes, fellowships

or just for no reasons.

Technology is a race, and the race is won by the one who touches the goal first, and goals are made by men. Technology makes the dreams come true.An impossible thing, 50 years back from today, is now pos-sible with the ease of technology. And today we will be talking about a technology that is getting more popular than a technology has ever.3G stands for 3rd Gener-ation; the term used for 3rd gener-ation of mobile telecommunications technology. The popularity of mobile phones, particularly the success of SMS messaging services, and the simul-taneous internet-based applica-tions, led the industry to believe that the public wanted ever more and faster data services from their handsets, and it began to develop a successor that would be able to support such services.

Some services offer higher

connection speeds. You will

be able to surf the net

from a mobile or cell

phone, enjoy real music

video streaming wirelessly.

And even 3D games, vide-

oconferencing is all part of

the 3G technology. If you

want to take advantage of

3G you not only have to

subscribe to a new service

plan, but you need a new

phone.

Brain Quotes

The first rule of any

technology used in

a business is that

automation applied

to an efficient oper-

ation will magnify

the efficiency. The

second is that auto-

mation applied to

an inefficient oper-

ation will magnify

the inefficiency.

People who are real-

ly serious about soft-

their own hardware.

INVENTION OF THE MONTH

Dr Gul Amin has

proven his first and

unique PHD research

that from Zinc Oxide

lighting on paper can

be prepared. After

this revolutionary

invention now bulb

and energy saver will

be closed and curtains

of room and wallpa-

pers will be lighting

the room. Now any-

one has been able to

build electronic and

photonic inorganic

semiconductor com-

ponents directly on

paper using chemical

methods. Dr Gul

Amin and his re-

search assistant

Naved ul Hassan Al-

vi made the break-

through. Dr Gul

Amin has proven in

his Thesis that to put

Zinc oxide and Poly-

mer on piece of paper

it is possible to get

white LED lighting.

History: The first 3G network offered for commercial use was launched in Japan by NTT DoCoMo. The network had the brand name FOMA and was introduced in May 2001 on a W-CDMA technology pre-release. The initial commercial launch of 3G was also done by NTT DoCoMo in Japan. This happened on October 1, 2001, although the technology was still very limited in terms of scope at the beginning. The broad availability, due to not a perfect reliability had to be delayed.

Background: The first generation of mobile phones used analogue radio and cir-cuit-switched systems. This produced poor voice transmission, low capacity and non-existent security. 1G systems, such as AMPS (advanced mobile phone system), TACS (total access communication system) and NMT (Nordic Mobile Telephone), are no longer in ac-tive development anywhere in the world. The shift to 2G of mobile telecommunications involved a shift from analogue to digital encoding and the introduction of time division multiple access (TDMA) transmission methods. 2G telecoms have been successful, with GSM (Global system for Mobile communica-tions) in the world. The major distinction between 2G and 3G services is the exponen-tially higher data rate, measured in megabits per second (Mbps). This will allow 3G mobile devices to support services such as video footage, conferencing; such an application is skype, and full internet access.

Services provided by 3G: 3G networks allow network operators to provide users a bigger range of the latest services, as it gets bigger network capacity via heightened spectral efficiency. The included services are video calls, wide-area wireless voice telephone and broadband wireless infor-mation, all included within the mobile environment.

Future: The future may be 3G, but its growth remains uncertain. Mobile phone customers are increasingly signing up to 3G-enabled devices. All the major manufacturers (Nokia, Sony Ericsson, Motorola, Sam-sung) sell models with 3G capacity.There will be auction of 3G tech-nology in Pakistan, by the end of this year. And soon you'll have one wireless device in your hands that will be able to do everything you need. You'll be able to even watch video calls, download any-thing you want at high wireless download speeds as well as even paying your accounts with one mobile device!

The future looks bright for wireless high-speed communication sys-

tems like 3G. Volume 2, Issue 10 PAGE:5

GREETING FOR

The truth about Agha Waqar’s water

car kit

By Saba Kotwal 12TL09

Proved as false: Water is fully oxidized hydrogen. Hydrogen itself is a high-energy, flamma-

ble substance, but its useful energy is released when water is formed—water

will not burn. The process of electrolysis, discussed below, would split wa-

ter into hydrogen and oxygen, but it takes as much energy to take apart a

water molecule as was released when the hydrogen was oxidized to form

water. In fact, some energy would be lost in converting water to hydrogen and then burning the hydrogen because some heat would always be pro-duced in the conversions. Releasing chemical energy from water, in excess or in equal proportion to the energy required to facilitate such production, would therefore violate the first and/or second laws of thermodynamics.

Comments on AGHA’S technology: Although I have great respect for Agha Waqar for at least taking initiatives

for introducing this technology in Pakistan, it saddens me that our media is

claiming that something the world .

Volume 2, Issue 10 PAGE:6

Water-fuelled car A water-fuelled car is a hypothetical automobile that derives its energy directly from water. Water-fuelled cars have been the subject of numer-ous international patents, newspaper and popular science magazine arti-cles, local television news coverage, and the Internet. The claims for these devices have been found to be incorrect and some were found to be tied to investment frauds. These vehicles may be claimed to produce fuel from water on board with no other energy input, or may be a hybrid of sorts claiming to get energy from both water and a conventional source (such as gasoline).

“Capital Talk” on Geo TV(about Hamid Mir’s programme) This episode was about a man called Agha Waqar – a proud Pakistani

who claimed to have invented something called a „water car kit‟. Obvious-

ly, the first thing that every one said upon seeing this was “Bravo!”, as I

personally have an interest in alternative energy systems and efficient

energy. I was swiftly becoming a fan of Waqar, the inventor of this in-

credible device.
