This award provides funding to SUNY-Binghamton, for the support of a Combined Research-Curriculum Development project entitled, " Satellite Communication Networks: New Curriculum Development," Dr. Victor A. Skormin, Principal Investigator. Proliferation of satellite communication network technology has stimulated basic and applied research in the relevant areas and impacted the job market creating the demand for a large number of appropriately educated researchers and engineers. These trends present to universities not only potential sources for research funding but also stimuli for the development of new curricula. This project proposes a new electrical engineering curriculum-Satellite Communication Networks (SCN). The proposed curriculum will include four undergraduate and entry-level graduate courses, namely, Technology and Devices for Communications Satellites, Digital Satellite Communications, Control System Technology for Communication Satellites, and Optical Communications for Satellite Networks. Students enrolled in this curriculum will develop a background that will include relevant satellite technology, electronics and electro-optics, communications, signal processing, computer engineering, knowledge of control technologies, devices for laser beam steering, pointing-acquisition-tracking of satellites, and application of global positioning systems. In addition to theoretical concepts, the students will gain strong laboratory experience and exposure to advanced technologies and devices and will be well prepared to operate in high technology industrial environments as members of engineering and research teams.

该奖项为纽约州立大学宾厄姆顿分校提供资金，用于支持一个名为“卫星通信网络：新课程开发”的研究-课程开发项目，首席研究员Victor A.Skormin博士说。卫星通信网络技术的激增刺激了相关领域的基础和应用研究，并影响了就业市场，产生了对大量受过适当教育的研究人员和工程师的需求。这些趋势不仅为大学提供了研究资金的潜在来源，而且也刺激了新课程的开发。本项目提出了新的电气工程课程--卫星通信网络(SCN)。拟议课程将包括四个本科生和入门级研究生课程，即通信卫星技术和器件、数字卫星通信、通信卫星控制系统技术和卫星网络光通信。选修本课程的学生将具备相关的卫星技术、电子学和电光、通信、信号处理、计算机工程、控制技术知识、激光光束操纵装置、卫星的指向-捕获-跟踪以及全球定位系统的应用等背景知识。除了理论概念，学生将获得丰富的实验室经验和接触先进的技术和设备，并将做好准备，作为工程和研究团队的成员在高科技工业环境中运作。
