IEEE TMTT Special Issue on Wirless Power Transfer now accepting submissions
Deadline: 1 October 2013
This special issue aims at evidencing, within this scientific vastness, those aspects more precisely related to RF and microwave technologies in a wide extent (from MHz up to THz).
Some topics of interest to this MTT-T Special Issue include, but are not limited to, the following areas, and relevant papers are thus welcome:
1. Basic technologies for wireless power transfer systems
2. Wireless power transfer via magnetic coupling (coils, resonators)
3. New applications of wireless power transfer technologies
4. Power sources for wireless power transfer systems
5. Rectifying devices, circuits, and rectennas
6. Standardization, regulation, and biological effects
7. Energy harvesting and scavenging
8. Wireless empowering of RFID and NFC systems
9. Wireless power transfer for Wide Area systems and networks
10. Wireless power transfer for implanted devices
11. Wireless power transfer in space (included SPS)

MTT-S Member, Dylan Williams, Named Recipient of the 2013 IEE Keithley Award
Dr. Williams, a member of the MTT Society, has been named the recipient of the 2013 IEEE Joseph F. Keithley Award in Instrumentation and Measurement for "the development of traceable mismatch-corrected microwave-scattering parameters and temporal waveform calibration and measurement." Dr. Williams is currently at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), Boulder, CO, USA, and will receive this prestigious IEEE-level award in a formal presentation at the 2013 IEEE International Microwave Symposium.
If you know someone in the MTT Society who may be eligible for an IEEE Technical Field Award, please visit www.ieee.org/awards for more information on eligibility and general award criteria. The nomination deadline for the 2014 IEEE Technical Field Awards is 31 January 2013.
MTT-S Member, Leung Tsang, Named Recipient of the 2013 IEEE Electromagnetics Award
Professor Leung Tsang, a member of the MTT Society, has been named the recipient of the 2013 IEEE Electromagnetics Award for "contributions to statistical electromagnetic theory and applications in remote sensing of complex geophysical environments.” Professor Tsang is currently at the University of Washington, Seattle, WA, USA, and will receive this prestigious IEEE-level award in a formal presentation at a 2013 IEEE conference to be announced.

Member-get-a-Member Program
Peer-to-peer referral is the most prominent means of member recruitment. Individuals are not likely to join IEEE unless they are asked. Now, you can get rewarded for sharing your IEEE membership experience with a colleague. Through the Member-Get-a-Member program, IEEE rewards your efforts in recruiting new members.
Your local IEEE Section can also benefit.
For each new member you recruit, you earn an award which can be used toward IEEE dues, MTT-Society fees or the purchase of IEEE products and services. During the 2012 membership year (16 August 2011 through 15 August 2012), the IEEE MGM Program offers the following award schedule to members who recruit other individuals into IEEE membership.
Professional members can earn:
- US$15 for each Professional member recruited;
- US$5 for each Professional member recruited to e-Membership (offered in developing nations only);
- The maximum amount a member can earn during the membership year is US$90.
Student members can earn:
- US$2 for each Student or Graduate Student member recruited;
- US$15 for each Professional member recruited;
- US$5 for each Professional member recruited to e-Membership (offered in developing nations only);
- The maximum amount a member can earn during the membership year is US$90.
The IEEE even provides you with referral cards you can print and handout to your colleagues

IEEE Transactions on Terahertz Science and Technology accepting submissions
The Transactions on Terahertz Science and Technology has opened its submission site for general articles ( www.thz.ieee.org - SUBMIT A PAPER). We welcome prospective authors to contribute to this new IEEE publication. General topic areas are listed on the web page. The journal will maintain the high standards of the IEEE Transactions while keeping publication turnaround times extremely short. Our goal is to have rapid posting through IEEE Xplore of accepted articles within three months of submission.

The inaugural issue is targeted for release in the fall of 2011. This issue will emphasize broad area review papers and breakthrough THz technologies and applications. Potential contributors to the inaugural issue should submit manuscripts in one or more of the topic areas listed here on or before March 1, 2011 and to contact one or more of the Topic Editors at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it . Subsequent issues are open to all relevant contributions and accepted articles will be posted electronically before the Inaugural issue appears in print. For questions or further details contact the editors at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .
