This year, the IEEE Microwaves Theory & Techniques Society (MTT-S) International Microwave Symposium (IMS) is being held in Baltimore, MD. IMS, a combination of exhibition hall, workshops, and technical sessions, is the focal point of Microwave Week. But Microwave Week also includes the Radio-Frequency Integrated Circuit (RFIC) Symposium and the Automatic... — Nancy Friedrich May 2011 Get A Close Look At The Industry’s Past This magazine may be celebrating its 50th anniversary this year, but the microwave industry obviously dates back further. To celebrate the industry’s storied past, a Historical Exhibit will be showing some of the early inventions and developments from the MTT-S’s permanent historical collection. Also on display will be early documentation from industry, government, and academic sources. Spotlighted will be early microwave and high-frequency tubes—the active power source... — Nancy Friedrich May 2011 Don’t Overlook Other Microwave Week Offerings BEYOND IMS, MICROWAVE WEEK offers the Radio-Frequency Integrated Circuit (RFIC) Symposium and the Automatic Radio- Frequency Techniques Group (ARFTG) Conference. Starting on Sunday, June 5, the 2011 RFIC Symposium features workshops at both advanced and tutorial levels. These workshops address issues that challenge today’s RF IC designers in addition to spotlighting the... — Nancy Friedrich May 2011 Remembering Microwave Exhibitions Of Years Past BALTIMORE HAS BEEN HOST to several successful IEEE International Microwave Symposium (IMS) events over the years. It is an ideal venue, with restaurants and hotels in close proximity to the Baltimore Convention Center.
