NSF Student Travel Grant for 2019 IEEE International Symposium on Dynamic Spectrum Access Networks (IEEE DySPAN)

IEEE动态频谱接入网络国际研讨会（IEEE DySPAN 2019）将于2019年11月11日至11月14日在美国新泽西州纽瓦克举行。DySPAN是一个独特的研讨会，聚集了工业界、学术界和监管界，并促进了这些团体之间在频谱技术、商业和政策方面的互动。DySPAN 2019不仅提供技术论文演示，还提供广泛的其他教育形式，包括学术界和工业界领导人的小组讨论、教程、行业演示、海报和主题演讲。频谱工程和政策对于提供巨大社会效益的未来无线网络的持续发展至关重要，DySPAN已做好充分准备，为这一多学科领域的研究思想交流和未来劳动力培训提供场所。该项目的目标是支持大约12个美国-获得旅行赠款的学生参加DySPAN 2019。学生将有机会展示他们的工作或参加本次研讨会没有被接受的论文。参加研讨会的大多数学生将研究与通信、频谱、协议和建模相关的主题。他们可能会发现他们的研究，可以导致新的智力贡献的新方向。学生旅行补助金的公告将在DySPAN 2019网站上发布，委员会将开展外联活动（例如，N2 Women和其他少数群体）以吸引潜在的与会者。该公告特别鼓励妇女、本科生和刚开始研究生以及代表性不足的少数民族的参与。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

IEEE International Symposium on Dynamic Spectrum Access Networks, IEEE DySPAN 2019, will be held between November 11 and November 14, 2019, in Newark, NJ, USA. DySPAN is a unique symposium that gathers industry, academia and regulatory communities and facilities interactions between these communities on technical, business and policy aspects of spectrum. DySPAN 2019 offers not only technical paper presentations but also a wide range of other educational formats, including panels, tutorials, industry presentations, posters and keynote speeches by leaders from academia and industry. Spectrum engineering and policy are crucial for the continued advancement of future wireless networks that provide enormous societal benefits and DySPAN is well positioned to provide a venue for exchange of research ideas and training of the future workforce in this multi-disciplinary area.The goal of this project is to support approximately 12 U.S.-based students with travel grants to attend DySPAN 2019. The students will have the opportunity to present their work or attend this symposium without accepted papers. Most students attending the symposium will be working on topics related to communications, spectrum, protocol and modeling. They may discover new directions for their research that can lead to new intellectual contributions. Announcement for the Student Travel Grant will be posted on the DySPAN 2019 website and the committee will conduct outreach (e.g. to N2Women and other minority groups) to attract potential attendees. The announcement specifically encourages the participation of women, undergraduates and beginning graduate students, and underrepresented minorities.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
