Student Paper Competition at the 1999 IEEE International Microwave Symposium, June 13-17, 1999, Anaheim, California

9819600YuThis project requests travel support for 15 participants from the U.S. universities in the Student Paper Competition at the 1999 IEEE MTT-S International Microwave Symposium（IMS）. IMS is the annual meeting of the Microwave Theory and Techniques Society（MTT-S）of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers（IEEE）. IMS也是微波领域的主要国际研讨会和无线通信研究成果的焦点。 1999年IMS将于1999年6月13日至17日在加利福尼亚州的阿纳海姆举行。每年，微波理论和技术协会通过一些机制促进学生在微波理论和技术方面的教育。 最重要的机制之一是IMS的学生论文比赛。 这个选择性的课程将世界上最优秀的学生聚集在一个综合课程中，他们不仅向技术观众展示自己的作品，还向一群评委展示自己的作品。 该计划有助于培养学生的技术敏锐性以及他们的沟通和表达技巧。 它还帮助将他们介绍给国际技术界，并帮助建立一个将领导下一代微波工程师的学生社区。IMS提供各种形式的财政支持，但不报销差旅费。 NSF的旅行支持将确保该计划向来自美国大学的最广泛的感兴趣的申请人开放。

9819600YuThis project requests travel support for 15 participants from U.S. universities in the Student Paper Competition at the 1999 IEEE MTT-S International Microwave Symposium (IMS).The IMS is the annual meeting of the Microwave Theory and Techniques Society (MTT-S) of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). The IMS is also the major international symposium in the microwave field and a focus of research results in wireless telecommunications. The 1999 IMS will be held in Anaheim, CA on June 13-17, 1999.Each year, the Microwave Theory and Techniques Society promotes student education in microwave theory and techniques through a number of mechanisms. One of the most important mechanisms is the Student Paper Competition at the IMS. This selective program brings the world's best students together in an integrated program in which they present their work not only to a technical audience but also to a group of judges. The program helps develop the students' technical acumen as well as their communication and presentation skills. It also helps introduce them to the international technical community and helps to build a community of students who will lead the next generation of microwave engineers.The IMS provides financial support of various forms but does not reimburse travel expenses. Travel support from NSF will ensure that the program is open to the widest range of interested applicants from U.S. universities.***
