Radio Frequency Spectrum Management Workshop

该活动将支持最多20名学生和20名参与者前往参加将在波多黎各马亚圭斯的波多黎各大学举行的无线电频谱管理讲习班并作报告。会议将于2015年8月举行。赠款将提供部分旅费、住房和会议出席费用。本次会议的主题与美国国家科学基金会对研究应用的频谱管理，特别是射电天文学的兴趣密切相关。研讨会将持续5天，其中一天将介绍NSF阿雷西博天文台的无线电干扰问题。讲习班的目标是在这个科学、工程和经济发展汇合的重要领域招募代表性不足的少数民族。研讨会将包括入门和高级主题，包括频谱管理基础、战略规划、卫星系统频谱管理、科学研究和海上商业用途。

The activity will support travel for up to 20 students and 20 participants to attend and present at a workshop on Radio Frequency Spectrum Management, which will take place at the University of Puerto Rico Mayaguez, Puerto Rico. The meeting will take place in August 2015. The grants will provide partial support for travel, housing, and conference attendance. The topic of this conference is of great relevance to the NSF's interests in spectrum management for research applications, particularly radio astronomy. The workshop will have duration of 5 days, including one day for a presentation on the radio interference issues at NSF's Arecibo Observatory. The goal of the workshop is to recruit under-represented minorities in this important area, which is at the convergence of science, engineering and economic development. The workshop will have introductory and advanced topics, including Spectrum Management fundamentals, Strategic Planning, Spectrum Management for Satellite Systems, Scientific Research and Maritime Commercial Uses.
