  1. RTOS Integration: Explain the key RTOS concepts-task creation, scheduling, 
    priorities, and synchronization primitives (semaphores, queues)-with a focus on 
    FreeRTOS. Provide an example of how these could manage multiple tasks (e.g., 
    data processing and display) in an embedded system. 
  2. Sensor and Actuator Interfacing: Describe how to interface analog and digital 
    sensors (e.g., temperature, light) and actuators (e.g., relays, motors, servos) with a 
    microcontroller. Include details on feedback control (e.g., PID control) and sensor 
    calibration techniques.
  3. Real-World Application: Choose a telecom/ Electrical -related application (e.g., remote monitoring system, smart antenna control) and explain how RTOS and 
    interfacing can be applied. Justify your choice with practical benefits (e.g., 
    reliability, efficiency). 
  4. Recommendations: Suggest improvements or challenges (e.g., power 
    consumption, timing issues) when implementing these concepts in the chosen 
    application.
