IMS HIGHLIGHTS STUDENT INGENUITY.

The article discusses the highlights of a six-day International Microwave Symposium (IMS). The Microwave Theory and Techniques Society (IEEE MTT-S), sponsor of the IMS, challenged students to create designs that function at professional level. The design competition included high-efficiency-power-amplifier, low-noise amplifier and packaged-ultrawideband-filter. Another segment of the IMS is the student-paper competition which benefits both the students and professionals who work with them.
