Rogers Sr. Dept. of Elec. & Comp. Eng. University of Toronto General Co-Chairs, 2020 IEEE International Radar Conference (Pre Covid-19) Welcome to the National Capital Region, Washington DC and its environs. Home to several world class universities, Government and private research laboratories and leading radar suppliers. The area is also rich in radar history. In 1922, Taylor and Young observed that ships in the Potomac River that runs through Washington DC interfered with their communications signals. They suggested that this might be used for detecting ships, and a few years later, aircraft. Almost 100 years later we thank you for coming to join us at the 2020 IEEE International Radar Conference.

  • TAB Awards and Recognition Manual,Microsoft Word
    TECHNICAL ACTIVITIES BOARD AWARDS AND RECOGNITION MANUAL 2020 Includes new and revised awards (Approved by TAB through June 2020) PREFACE The IEEE shall recognize those who contribute to and support the purposes of the Institute in an exceptionally worthy manner. In furtherance of this objective, the Institute has created and fostered a broad program of formal recognitions, scholarships and awards of all types. The Institute encourages the formation of awards committees in its geographical, professional and technical entities to recognize outstanding achievements and services for the benefit of the IEEE and the engineering profession, and for those accomplishments which enhance the quality of life for all people throughout the world. IEEE Awards serve several purposes: (1) they are an expression of recognition for outstanding contributions to the art and science of electrical and electronics engineering; (2) they are an incentive to youth to emulate excellence, (3) they are a personalized recognition of the achievements of the profession and its members to the public, and (4) they identify the IEEE with these achievements. IEEE Policies The Technical Activities Board Awards and Recognition Manual provides a comprehensive listing of awards (including scholarships and other student awards) sponsored by IEEE Societies, Technical Councils, Technical Conferences, and the Technical Activities Board, itself. Information contained in this new edition of the Manual reflects the current information on approved awards on file in the Technical Activities Department. Awards are grouped under the headings of their sponsoring entities (primarily Societies and Technical Councils), with information that includes description/purpose, prize, eligibility, basis for judging, and presentation. If more detailed information is required for a specific award, it may be available through the sponsoring entity's Awards Committee.

  • The Geography of Radionavigation and the Politics of Intangible Artifacts

On board, the navigator is primarily occupied with two objects—or possibly three. The first is a black box with knobs and an oscilloscope display, as in figure 1. The navigator spends most of his time fiddling with these knobs trying to make two wavy signals align on the screen; doing this results in two numbers—something like 49.1 and 4.8. At least one of these numbers is constantly changing and the navigator’s box requires ongoing attention. The second object is a simple map known as a lattice chart that shows a dense network of colored hyberbolas, as in figure 2. Each of these curves corresponds to one of the numbers from the machine; finding the intersection of the lines labeled 49.1 and 4.8 puts the bomber just north of Leeds. From here, it will head east over the North Sea to join in formation with more than nine hundred other aircraft, all carry- ing similar equipment, before turning south for yet another bombing raid on German civilians—this time, in the suburbs of Cologne.

RADER HENRI GASTON BUSIGNIES, an outstanding scientist, inventor, and engineer, died onjune 20,1981, in Antibes on the French Riviera at the age of seventy­six . In 1975 he retired from International Tele­ phone and Telegraph Company (ITT) where he had been Senior Vice­President and Chief Scientist. His career, all with ITT, spanned a half century of major contributions to the field of telecom­ munications. He was responsible for more than 140 patented inven­ tions, many of which were of major significance to commercial and military aerial navigation. Dr. Busignies was born in 1905 at Sceaux near Paris, France, the son of a mechanical engineer. He showed a very early interest in radio and became a "ham" at agefou rteen . Even as a teenager he soon discovered that he was more interested in experimenting with radio circuits to improve them than in receiving far­off stations, which was a prime interest in the early days of radio. He studied at the Jules Ferry College in Versailles, and in 1926, at the age of twenty­one, obtained a degree in electrical engineering from the Institute Normal Electro Technique in Paris. In 1926, before getting his degree, he obtained his first patent on a radio compass, a device that electronically pointed to the direction of the radio transmitter from which waves were being received. In that same year he received the first of his many awards, the Lakhovsky Award by the Radio Club of France.
