IEEE MTT-S Technical Committee 6 “RF MEMS and Microwave Acoustics” sponsored a “Switched Acoustic Filter Module” Student Design Competition at the 2025 IEEE MTT-S International Microwave Symposium. The students were challenged to design a multi-band switched filter that combined both acoustic RF filters and RF MEMS switches. The designs were required to have one antenna […]
In 2022 IEEE MTT-S finally launches a new conference series on Microwave Acoustics & Mechanics after the first edition has been postponed by two years due to the Corona pandemic. The first International Conference on Microwave Acoustics & Mechanics (IC-MAM) will be held from July 18-20. 2022 in Munich, Germany. The International Conference on Microwave […]
The development of 5G systems promises paradigm-shifting applications while presenting unique challenges across materials, devices, modules, and systems. One area that calls for innovative solutions to support the 5G growth is the front-end acoustic filtering at sub-6 GHz and beyond. To this end, this workshop features a group of international experts who will present upcoming […]
All IMS’20 workshops have been cancelled due to the Corona pandemic, see https://ims-ieee.org.
Microwave acoustic filters (SAW, BAW) are the prevailing filter technology in RF frontends of mobile handsets, due to their compactness, low price and high selectivity. To keep up with the demand for multiplexers, engineers are usually required to combine (off-the-shelf) SAW/BAW components with RF switches for a multi-band multiplex filter. In this competition, our sponsors […]
