Master’s thesis: avionics video transceiver / media converter

Description
June 30, 2014
My master's thesis was done in collaboration with Barco Avionics in Belgium, and consisted of the full development of an avionics video transceiver, tasked with converting an analog high-definition video signal into a packet-based fibre optic protocol, and doing the reverse on the receiving end.
Full development includes schematic capture, layout and test of the high-frequency FPGA board (Xilinx Virtex), development and test of the FPGA logic, and final verification against a protocol analyzer.
