CHAPTER 1
The necessity of establishing a technical institute for the Bangladesh Armed Forces was felt in the
late eighties. In the absence of such an institution, officers of Bangladesh Armed Forces had been
graduating from Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET), Bangladesh
Institute of Technology (BIT) and other foreign institutions of science and technology. With a view
to meet the increasing demand for the development and dissemination of engineering and
technological knowledge, Bangladesh Armed Forces established the Military Institute of Science
and Technology (MIST) that promises to provide facilities for higher technical education both for
the officers of Bangladesh Armed Forces as well as for civil students from home and abroad. The
motto of MIST is ―Technology for Advancement. Founded on 19 April 1998, MIST started its
journey on 31 January 1999 by offering a four-year bachelor's degree on Civil Engineering. Bachelor
degree on Computer Science Engineering course started on 2001. Bachelor courses on Electrical,
Electronic & Communication Engineering and Mechanical Engineering started its journey from
2003. Bachelor of Science program on Aeronautical Engineering (AE) and Naval Architecture and
Marine Engineering (NAME) program were started from 2008-2009 and 2012-2013 respectively.
Besides, four new departments started their academic session from 2014-2015 i.e. Nuclear Science
& Engineering (NSE), Biomedical Engineering (BME), Architecture (Arch) and Environmental,
Water Resources & Coastal Engineering (EWCE).
Electrical, Electronic and Communication Engineering is one of the leading and purposeful fields
of engineering technology. Presently, a plenty of students from various public and private
universities/institutes successfully complete undergraduate programmes in this field of engineering.
But scopes are limited to obtain postgraduate degree since most of the institutions at home do not
run postgraduate programme. Since 2003, the department of Electrical, Electronic and
Communication Engineering (EECE) of MIST is offering the undergraduate programme in this
field. Over the past years, the department has attained sufficient strength to run postgraduate
programmes in this field of Engineering. MIST is determined to attain the cutting edge academic
and research standard in the contemporary scientific world. The department of EECE, as being
3

well-facilitated with all the modern and essential research aspects, is willing to launch the post-
graduate program to open new dimension in the field of higher studies in Bangladesh.
On 07 February 2013, in the 40th Meeting of Academic Council of MIST, it was decided that a board
of officers should study the feasibility of running Post Graduate Programme in EECE from October
2013 semester. According to the positive recommendation of the board and committee of courses
(formed with distinguished professors from BUET and in house faculties of MIST) M.Sc/M.Engg
programme was started from October 2013 semester and Ph.D programme was started from October
2014 semester. In the designed curricula, maximum courses were included providing wider
opportunities for the students in selecting courses. However, considering the advancement of
technology, existing curricula need to be updated and new courses are to be included. Courses of
following fields are included:
Vision: To provide quality education in electrical, electronic and communication engineering and
technology, and conduct research to meet the national and global challenges.
Mission:
2. To produce technologically advanced graduates and professionals with high moral and ethical
values to meet the domestic and global needs in the field of electrical, electronic and communication
engineering.
3. To conduct collaboration and research activities with national and international academia and
industry.
4. To provide consultancy, advisory and testing services to public and private organizations
including personal in the areas of electrical, electronic and communication engineering.
The department endeavors to provide its faculty members and students adequate laboratory,
library and other facilities. Departmental graduate courses are laboratory intensive and these
requirements are catered by following laboratories:

1. General Information
A Master’s thesis must make some contribution to knowledge and not be mere collation of existing material.
A PhD thesis must make a significant contribution to the knowledge of the subject concerned or provide
evidence of originality either by the discovery of new facts or by the exercising of independent critical
ability.
Work which has been submitted for another degree, or for which a degree has already been conferred by
this Institute or any other university, may not be submitted again as a thesis but you are not precluded from
incorporating part of such work provided that, in the thesis, you clearly indicate the part of the work which
has been so incorporated.
Furthermore, please note that any work carried out before your enrolment in the University cannot
be used for submission in a thesis examination, unless you have obtained approval from your
supervisor and the Faculty.
The thesis must be written in English unless otherwise specified. Before submission of the thesis, you
should seek consent from copyright owners for the inclusion of any third party proprietary/confidential
intellectual property in the thesis.
Most thesis authors experience major difficulties with tense in their documents. Many theses become a
muddled mixture of past, present and future tense. To alleviate this problem, a simple solution is to treat
the thesis as a historical document which will be read many years from the date of publication. The
following grammatical procedure can then be adopted:
All general discussions and all discussions of experiments, equipment, etc. are written in the past tense
(e.g., "The test-tubes were acquired from a standard batch that was available at the time of
experimentation...").
References to mathematical formulae are written in the present tense (e.g., "Equation 7.2 highlights the
relationship between...").
References to objects (sections, tables, diagrams, etc.) in the thesis are in the present tense (e.g., "Section
2.9 contains a discussion on...").
References to future work are also written in the past tense (e.g., "It was determined that future
developments could lead to an increase in...").

2. Thesis Title
The title has to be approved from the CASR after having recommendation from BPGS. If the thesis title
differs significantly from the original approved title, the candidate must request for a change of title using
the prescribed application form and take necessary approval from the CASR.
3. General Formatting
Page Size Each copy of the thesis must be printed on A4 size (8.27” x 11.69”) paper (offset
paper with minimum weight should be 80 gm) with white background and black
colour font for the text.
Print Clear, clean and sharp copies are required. In the case of photocopies, no
Quality fading, extraneous marks or gray background should appear.
The top, bottom and right margins should be 25 mm from the edge of the paper and
Margins left margin should be 35 mm from the edge of the paper. A right
justified margin is acceptable which must be consistent throughout the
thesis.
Font The font size for the main text should be 11 to 12 points. The same font
type and size should be used for the entire thesis (with possible exception
for figures and appendices). Do not choose a font that is difficult to read.
The following fonts are acceptable: Times Roman and Helvetica.
Page All pages except the title page must be paginated. The page numbers
Numbering must appear at the bottom centre of the page. The position of the page
numbers should not change even on pages with landscape mode
illustrations.
All material preceding the thesis proper (introductory sections starting
from acknowledgements to summary) may have a separate sequence of
numbering, preferably in roman numerals beginning with i. Plates, maps,
plans, diagrams, tables, etc., should also be given a separate sequence of
numbering.
The main body of the thesis should be numbered in arabic numerals
from 1 onwards. The numbering must be consecutive throughout the thesis and
should include all maps, diagrams, photographs, etc. Published
material submitted with the thesis whether bound in with the thesis or not,
should not be included in the pagination but must maintain the same
margins, font type and size.
For a thesis which consists of more than one volume, one numbering
sequence should be used, for example, if volume I ends at p.200, volume II
should begin with p.201.

Chapter 1- This is the most crucial chapter in the thesis and the one which
Introduction requires the most careful consideration. The reader must be
(Thesis Body) introduced, in a step by step fashion, to the purpose of the
project, concepts and ideas related to the project and the
structure of the following sections of the thesis. This section
should endeavour to treat technical issues in a qualitative
manner so that the reader can clearly understand the task at
hand, without reference to other texts or periodicals. Formal
page numbering for the body of the thesis begins in this section.
Pages should preferably be numbered in a simple sequential
order and should be chapter independent (ie: page numbers such
as 1.2, 2.7 are not appropriate).
Chapters 2..N This is the portion of the thesis in which literature surveys are
(Thesis Body) discussed, research and development techniques are explained,
theories, models and systems formulated and results evaluated.
In general, the body of the thesis should be free from long,
complex calculations, routine mathematical proofs, program
code or large volumes of raw data. Page numbering continues on
from the introductory chapter.
Chapter N+1 This should draw together the main findings of the research
Conclusions and program, together with findings of literature surveys carried out
Recommendations at the beginning and the end of the research program.
for Further Work Recommendations should also be made for future research in
related areas. Page numbering should be a continuation from the
previous section.
References A listing of all references from which data has been abstracted
for the purposes of the thesis. Preferably, the references should
be listed in the order in which they are referred to in the body of
the thesis. Page numbering is a continuation of previous
sections.
Appendices Appendices are used to store important calculations, proofs,
tables or code which would interrupt the flow of qualitative
descriptions in the body of the thesis. Each appendix has its
own page numbering scheme. For example, Appendix A would
have numbers A-1, A-2, etc. Appendix X would have numbers
X-1, X-2, etc.
Index This is generally an optional section in which common words or
phrases, occurring in the body of the thesis are referenced to
page numbers. Modern word-processors make the task of
compiling an index considerably easier and hence authors may
wish to include them. Page numbering can be a continuation of
the Appendix Format.
