The goal of this proposal is to form a diverse research team, plan corresponding activities, and develop research tasks at Florida A&M University (FAMU), an Historically Black College and University, aimed at conducting research on brain-inspired dynamics for engineering energy-efficient circuits and artificial intelligence. The proposed research plan will leverage the expertise in various fields to develop brain inspired intelligence distributing high efficiency RF signal processing circuits which can be applied to 5G/6G wideband wireless communication, IoT, national security, radar, quantum computing, smart city, and smart health etc. The planning grant activities will catalyze the inclusion of all traditionally under-served populations in engineering in future U.S. engineering workforce development and research innovation. This project focuses on forming a multidisciplinary research team with expertise in neuroscience, wireless communication, signal processing, high frequency circuit and system design, and novel material design. Planning grant activities that will be carried out during the project period include 1) organize multiple workshops, inviting speakers in different fields from internal or outside of primary institution; 2) structured mentoring the PI in the execution of forming diverse research teams; 3) directed activities to overcome the challenge of geographic distance in collaborative activities; 4) develop the research plan and tasks through coordinating with experts in varied fields; 5) promote minority, women, and underrepresented students to develop their STEM careers. The planning activities in this project will significantly enhance the capability and capacity of FAMU to participate in and lead mid-scale research projects exploring transformative research ideas that address national grand challenges and societal needs.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.

该提案的目标是组建一个多元化的研究团队，计划相应的活动，并在佛罗里达A M大学（FAMU），一个历史上的黑人学院和大学，旨在进行工程节能电路和人工智能的大脑启发动力学的研究。拟议的研究计划将利用各领域的专业知识开发大脑启发的智能分布式高效RF信号处理电路，可应用于5G/6 G宽带无线通信，物联网，国家安全，雷达，量子计算，智慧城市，和智能健康等。规划赠款活动将促进纳入所有传统上-在未来的美国工程劳动力发展和研究创新的工程服务人口。该项目重点组建一支具有神经科学、无线通信、信号处理、高频电路和系统设计以及新型材料设计专业知识的多学科研究团队。在项目期间将开展的计划资助活动包括：1）组织多个研讨会，邀请来自主要机构内部或外部的不同领域的演讲者; 2）有组织地指导PI组建不同的研究团队; 3）指导活动，以克服合作活动中地理距离的挑战; 4）通过与各领域专家的协调，制定研究计划和任务; 5）促进少数民族，妇女和代表性不足的学生发展他们的STEM事业。该项目的规划活动将显著提高FAMU参与和领导中等规模研究项目的能力和能力，这些项目探索解决国家重大挑战和社会需求的变革性研究理念。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
