The IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society (MTT-S) is a transnational society with more than 11,000 members and 150 chapters worldwide. The Society promotes the advancement of RF and microwave theory and its applications from a few MHz to THz. One of the 27 Technical Committees is MTT-17, in charge of HF/VHF/UHF technology. The mission […]

Organizers: SungWon Chung, University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA, USA Hermann Boss, Rhode & Schwartz, Munich, Germany Noriaki Kaneda, Nokia Bell Labs, Murray Hill, NJ, USA This workshop overviews the recent advancements in digital pre-distortion (DPD) and digital post-correction (DPC) techniques over a broad range of spectrum from DC to mmWave. Beyond the classical […]

Amelie Hagelauer (University of Erlangen-Nuremberg) together with Vadim Issakov and Uwe Rueddenklau (both Infineon) organized a workshop on “RF Front-Ends for Enhanced Mobile Communications towards 5G” at this year’s IMS. The workshop has been very successful with more than 100 attendees.

RADIO WIRELESS WEEK 2018 I DON’T KNOW WHERE I’M GOING, BUT I’M ON MY WAY. ~~ CARL SAGAN 200 years ago, it would take a message about 2 weeks to cross the Atlantic. And today, it takes a blink of an eye! Martin Cooper from Motorola placed the very first mobile phone call 45 years […]

MESSAGE FROM 2018 PRESIDENT TOM BRAZIL “An Amazing Time for Microwaves” The remarkable communications advances we’ll see during the coming year rely on electromagnetic energy in the RV, microwave, mm-wave, and terahertz bands. The coming of 5G will mean mm-waves everywhere, and we may even cut some power cables to harness wireless power transfer. This […]

Submit papers by 18 February for the Power Transfer Conference (WPTC2018), running 3-7 June in Montreal with the Workshop on Emerging Technologies: Wireless Power (WoW), and the Wireless Power Congress (WPC). Read more

A new method combining terahertz time-domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS) with metamaterials detects concentrations of the pesticide carbendazim as low as 5 mg/L, sensitivity about 4 orders of magnitude better than squash THz-TDS. Read more

Development of a synthesizer to support planetary science instrumentation using a CMOS system-on-chip to deliver at least 10 microwatts across the 177–205 GHz lock range while consuming 249 mW of dc power. Read more

The remarkable communications advances we’ll see during the coming year rely on electromagnetic energy in the RV, microwave, mm-wave, and terahertz bands. The coming of 5G will mean mm-waves everywhere, and we may even cut some power cables to harness wireless power transfer. This year’s IMS in Philadelphia will feature state-of-the-art research and the largest […]

KT Corp. (formerly Korea Telecom), the 2018 Winter Olympics Games’ official sponsor, has announced plans for the first big test run of networking technologies that could herald peak download rates up to 100 times as fast as today’s 4G systems, with delays as low as 1 millisecond. KT’s competitors SK Telecom and LG U+ are […]

THZ Imaging Human Corneas In Vivo Two papers from UCLA outline optical design and prototype development and evaluation of a new system of reflection-mode terahertz imaging for early, accurate, non-contact detection and study of corneal diseases in humans. The system reveals corneal-tissue water content and geometry while avoiding the problems caused by direct contact with […]

Bringing industry and academia together, European Microwave Week 2017 (EuMW 2017) was a six day event held in Nuremberg, Germany, October 8–13, including three cutting edge conferences and a trade and technology exhibition featuring leading players from across the globe. As one of world’s biggest technical events, EuMW 2017 grows far beyond the microwave technologies […]

5G Power, Linearity, and Efficiency Prediction for MIMO Arrays Since MIMO array elements are electromagnetically coupled, the waves fed to the antennas also drive the power amplifier (PA) output ports, creating an apparent variable load at each PA output. Simulation is a powerful tool in understanding how these MIMO systems behave. Such simulators should be […]

Researchers at Chalmers University in Sweden have combined flexibility and terahertz detection into one flexible, graphene-based detector that could lead to new products such as wearable terahertz sensors for medical diagnosis. In research published in the journal Applied Physics Letters, the Chalmers researchers developed a field-effect transistor (FET) built up on a plastic substrate in […]
