C#/MATLAB Real-Time Data Analysis/Capture System
Objective
To design a system integrating proprietary hardware peripherals with a customized desktop application aimed at characterizing RF signals within electromagnetic environments. This involved utilizing MATLAB, C#, and leveraging a Spectrum Analyzer along with its software drivers to develop a bespoke desktop application. The goal was to create an application capable of displaying, storing, transferring, and validating data collected during Electromagnetic Interference tests.
