MTT ADCOM recently allocated some funds to translate some IEEE Microwave Magazine articles into Spanish and Portuguese. The goal of the project is to provide inspiration to students and engineers to learn more about microwaves, and to increase MTT-S visibility with practicing engineers.

If you are not an IEEE MTT-S member, please contact your closest MTT-S Chapter Chair in Latin America, Spain, or Portugal. For a list of MTT Chapters and Chapter officers, go to MTT-S Chapter web pages.

You can download all papers in Spanish and Portuguese from here
