HBCU-UP DCL OPEN: Acquisition of Compact Wideband Integrated Near Field Passive Measurement and OTA Measurement System

国家科学基金会历史上的黑人学院和大学本科生计划（HBCU-UP）支持加强HBCU的本科科学，技术，工程和数学（STEM）教育和研究的项目，作为扩大国家STEM劳动力参与的手段。该HBCU-UP设备奖为佛罗里达AM大学提供资金，以支持购买用于近场无源测量和天线、天线阵列和电磁设备的空中测量的测量系统。该设备支持电气计算机工程系本科生和教师在电磁学、场传播、高频电路设计、天线和微波测量方面的研究、教学和学习目标。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。

The National Science Foundation Historically Black Colleges and Universities Undergraduate Program (HBCU-UP) supports projects that enhance undergraduate science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education and research at HBCUs, as means to broaden participation in the nation's STEM workforce. This HBCU-UP equipment award provides Florida A&M University with funding to support the purchase of a measurement system for near field passive measurement and over the air measurement of antenna, antenna array, and electromagnetic devices. This equipment supports research, teaching, and learning objectives in electromagnetics, field propagation, high frequency circuit design, antenna, and microwave measurement for undergraduate students and faculty in the Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering.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.
