Abstract :
This study focuses on the implementation of web based low cost yet effective remote laboratory system for engineering education to utilize limited resources for improving engineering student´s practical knowledge as well as self learning ability. The proposed system provides practical experience to the students in the field of power electronics and telecommunications. This lab allows the students to perform experiment by controlling various experimental apparatus on real time from their home or any preferred location using the internet connection. Several experiments related to Power electronics and Telecommunications have been designed for this remote lab. The system is flexible and the range of laboratory experiments can be expanded as required without any complexity. This initializes an openly integrated environment which facilitates the sharing of not only hardware resources, but also educational material for enhancing engineering education in developing countries like Bangladesh.
