Computer Engineering Final Year Topic: Design and Evaluation of UART Error Recovery Protocol

This Computer Engineering final year project investigates recovering framed messages after byte loss on an owned serial link, linking hardware behaviour and software assumptions through an explicitly bounded prototype or simulation.

Why choose this project topic?

The topic makes recovering framed messages after byte loss on an owned serial link a testable computer-engineering problem with visible interfaces and failure cases. Measuring recovered frames, false acceptance and resynchronisation delay helps a student compare design alternatives and explain how resource constraints affect the proposed implementation.

How do the selected hardware or embedded-software choices affect recovered frames, false acceptance and resynchronisation delay when recovering framed messages after byte loss on an owned serial link?

Choose an available development board or simulator, agree the supported interface and workload, and narrow recovering framed messages after byte loss on an owned serial link with your supervisor.

Proposed project objectives

  1. 01Specify the interfaces, operating assumptions and expected behaviour for recovering framed messages after byte loss on an owned serial link.
  2. 02Use two development boards, implement checksums and framing and inject bounded byte deletion and corruption in a local test harness.
  3. 03Measure recovered frames, false acceptance and resynchronisation delay and document failures, resource limits and reproducibility.

A suggested research approach

Use two development boards, implement checksums and framing and inject bounded byte deletion and corruption in a local test harness. Keep all tests on owned, simulated or approved low-voltage equipment. Record hardware and tool versions, compare output with an independent reference, and evaluate recovered frames, false acceptance and resynchronisation delay using normal, boundary and interrupted-operation cases.

What you will need

  • Owned microcontroller boards
  • Serial fault injector
  • Known payload corpus

Keep your project scope clear

Error detection does not provide confidentiality or certify industrial communication reliability. Project writing does not supply working firmware or manufactured hardware.
