In today's dynamic and fast-paced operational environments, effective communication is paramount. This training session aims to elevate the MOVE team's radio communication skills by delving into key concepts and systems that enhance interoperability and operational efficiency. Objectives: - Understanding Interoperability: - Introduction to P25 Standards: - VIPER System Overview: - Effective Radio Communication Techniques: - Practical Applications and Scenarios: Co-sponsored by: IEEE-USA MOVE Program Speaker(s): Greg Hauser Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/406566

The IRS’ definition of R&D and industry’s definition of R&D differ. A large majority of R&D performed in the US is done in the private sector, rather than done by universities and the work that qualifies for R&D Tax Credits is much broader (and more lucrative) than you would think. The program that pays for this R&D work is the Research Tax Credit, which is administered by the IRS. This presentation, R&D Tax Credits for Engineers and Scientists, is a high level basic primer that will teach you what type of R&D work that you already do qualifies for the credit and the general steps required to present your work successfully to the IRS.

Region 1 and Region 2 will be coming together, so the R1 and R2 Young Professionals would like to talk about our plans, connect engaged YPs, and learn about what matters to you! Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/422234

In place of the regularly scheduled ExComm meeting, there will be an open meeting with interested members at Pickle Bill's in Grand River (https://www.picklebills.com/) Appetizers and drinks will be provided as we talk about what we would like to see happen in the Cleveland section. And officers will be available to answer questions you might have regarding IEEE, especially the Cleveland section. This event is being held on the east side to make it easier for those people on the east side to attend. Hopefully not too far east! 101 River Street, Grand River, Ohio, United States, 440545

The demand for faster communication technologies has motived exploration of higher frequency bands. Positioned between the microwave and infrared regions of the electromagnetic spectrum, the THz band offers the potential for ultra-high data rates and significant bandwidth. However, its practical utilization faces substantial challenges, including a limited number of available sources and receivers and severe atmospheric attenuation, collectively known as the "THz Gap." This research aims to address these challenges by exploring THz generation concepts and determining the feasibility of real-time propagation predictions. The study primarily focuses on using superconducting ring arrays to generate Radio Frequency (RF) radiation, leveraging prior and ongoing research. Characterization of THz emission will be conducted through modeling and measurements, primarily using FEKO, a commercially available electromagnetic solver. Measurements will utilize scaling principles of antenna structures, with efforts to detect actual THz radiation through various approaches. In addition to THz generation, the study will model THz propagation using the High Energy Laser End to End Operations Simulation (HELEEOS) tool developed by the Center for Directed Energy at the Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT). This MATLAB-implemented code, originally developed for laser propagation predictions, will be applied to the THz frequency range for the first time. The proposed dissertation aims to answer two key research questions: (1) Can the generation of THz radiation using superconducting rings provide a viable alternative to existing approaches? (2) Can RF scaling principles enable the construction and prediction of THz propagation to assess true THz band utilization? The qualification of these questions will be achieved through a combination of measurements, modeling, and quantitative analysis, providing a comprehensive understanding of THz generation and propagation.
