Abstract :
This work in progress describes the development of remote lecture demonstrations and experiments for communication engineering. The remote panel feature of LabVIEW is used to allow access to virtual instruments (VI´s) through a web browser. The experiments, themselves are located in the laboratory, saving the time and effort off moving all the equipment to the classroom. Full experiments, rather than simulations of the phenomena are used. In the classroom the remote panels are accessed through a wireless Internet link. This work-in-progress will conclude with a discussion of several extensions of these ideas.
