The IEEE Baltimore Section will hold its annual senior membership drive for 2024. Registration is open now through May 5th. This year the interviews will be conducted over the phone or VTC and will be scheduled at a time and date that is convenient for the member. This is an opportunity to talk with the people who will be references for your application to Senior Membership. See the following link for Senior Membership Requirements, (Note: most members with 10 years of experience in the field meet the requirements.) https://www.ieee.org/membership/senior/senior-requirements.html#sect5 Be sure to include your Email address and IEEE member number when registering so that we can complete the nomination process before conducting your interview. After you register, we will contact you to schedule an interview. We will also request a copy of your resume that highlights your achievements, which will be discussed during the interview. Remember to register on or before May 5th. Co-sponsored by: [email protected] Agenda: IEEE Senior Member Grade Elevation interviews sponsored by the Baltimore Section. When: Interview dates in May. Where: Interviews conducted over phone or VTC. Who: IEEE Members who qualify for Senior Membership Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/414176

This program allows you to share your interest in a specific subject by teaching STEM topics to students aged 13-18. IEEE Penn State Harrisburg will supply the equipment you need for the sessions, and we'll also arrange for your transport to the library. If you decide to sign up, you're looking at a commitment of just one hour on a Monday. It’s a direct way to engage with and excite young learners about STEM. Should you choose to participate, you could make a meaningful difference in a student's approach to learning. This initiative is a chance to contribute to the STEM field's future, and it's open to Penn State Harrisburg students interested in volunteering.

As the needs for sensing the physical world to support detection, tracking, AR/VR and slew of other applications increase, the use of communications waveforms for sensing is becoming more attractive and is likely to emerge as one of the main features in NextG development. In this talk we discuss key challenges in measurement science and modeling approaches for advanced communications and sensing going forward. We will review the main building blocks for joint communications and sensing in terms of efficient spectrum use, higher frequency bands and the use machine learning. The millimeter-wave and terahertz bands hold the promise of significant bandwidth and speed due to large swaths of untapped spectrum. In addition, as massive data volumes are being collected, analyzed, and delivered, communications and sensing systems have become too complex to develop, manage, and operate. The insights that are “mined” from the data using Machine Learning (ML) techniques have become standard practice. In this talk, we discuss state-of-the-art and key challenges in measurement and modeling techniques to expedite the development and pave the way for the next “G”.
