The cycle can be easilyanalyzed under air standard assumptions: i) the working fluid is air, continuously circulates in aclosed loop, and behaves as an ideal gas; ii) all the four processes that make up the cycle areconsidered to be internally reversible; iii) the combustion process is replaced by a constantvolume heat addition process from an external source; iv) the exhaust process is replaced by aconstant volume heat rejection process that restores the working fluid to the initial state. Anotherassumption that is frequently used to simplify cycle analysis is that the air has constant specificheats determined at room temperature. When this

studentsand inhibiting opportunities for them to excel in a technologically advanced society.Furthermore, the uninspiring nature of such labs fails to capture the imagination of students,which leads to their losing interest in studying science [1]. Experience with obsolete andunappealing science labs causes too many students to develop a negative view of science andwhat scientists do, and they never develop an understanding of how scientists address problems.

In 2004, National University initiated a uniqueMaster of Science in Wireless Communications (MSWC) program, in order to better preparewireless communications professionals. To date, many cohorts of students have graduated fromthe MSWC program and are now actively contributing to the field. In order to meet the degreerequirements, students of MSWC are required to complete a relevant research project that is thedeliverable product of the Capstone course.
