Leaky-Wave Antenna (LWA) is a beam-scanning antenna that plays a crucial role in modern wireless communication, satellite communication, navigation systems, and autonomous drive. In this talk we will discuss the fundamentals of the LWA, its applications, and comparison with phased array antennas. Speaker(s): , , Nima Javanbakht Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/423962
The IEEE International Symposium on Antennas and Propagation is coming up in mid July, so the AP-S Student Chapter is holding a conference presentation competition. This event will give you the chance to practice your presentation along with fielding questions from a technical audience. Getting a practice session like this will make the real presentation much easier and less stressful. There will also be anonymous feedback provided to the presenters on ways they can improve their presentations (e.g., delivery, content, slide layout, etc.). If you would like to give a presentation, please email stewart.pearson@mail.utoronto.ca so we can get a schedule drawn up. If you're not planning on attending an upcoming conference, you are still welcome to give a presentation on your current research. It's never too early to practice! For the presenters, there will be a chance at winning an exciting prize for the highest rated presentation. There will also be a raffle prizes for the attendees. As usual, there will also be coffee and refreshments provided. We look forward to seeing you there!

[] Prof. Paul Cunningham is an IEEE Distinguished Lecturer who is visiting Toronto and will present his work with mHealth4Afrika. Supported by the European Commission, mHealth4Afrika co-designed and validated a state-of-the-art modular, extensible and multilingual standards based health information system to support strengthening primary healthcare delivery in resource constrained environments in Ethiopia, Kenya, Malawi and South Africa This SSIT Distinguished Lecture (DL) by Prof. Paul M Cunningham (IST-Africa Institute, Ireland) will share insight gained from mHealth4Afrika related to co-designing appropriate technological solutions to address societal challenges in resource constrained environments. While primarily focused on the health domain, it will encompass discussion of ethics and importance of infrastructure (including reliable power).
