This year the Signal Processing Society identified 16 Chapters who exhibited excellence in many facets of chapter management, member recruitment, and activities.

The field of information theory - dating back to the seminal work by Claude E. Shannon in 1948 - is considered to be one of the landmark intellectual achievements of the 20^th century, underpinning advances in compression and communication of data that underpins the information age. In particular, information-theoretic methods have been used to illuminate fundamental limits and gauge the effectiveness of algorithms for various problems in statistical decision theory, data communications, data compression, security, and networking.

The explosive growth in the use of smart mobile devices such as smartphones and wireless modems has led to an exponentially increasing demand for wireless data services. 

The marriage of ever-more sophisticated signal processing and wireless communications has led to compelling “tele-presence” solutions-at the touch of a dialing key.

Our volunteers carry the IEEE mission by conducting activities every day that benefit their local IEEE communities throughout the world. To support them in this effort, MGA ensures that they have the right training resources at their disposal.

The health care industry may seem the ideal place to deploy artificial intelligence systems. Each medical test, doctor’s visit, and procedure is documented, and patient records are increasingly stored in electronic formats. AI systems could digest that data and draw conclusions about how to provide better and more cost-effective care. Plenty of researchers are building such systems: 

Massive MIMO is a compelling wireless access concept that relies on the use of an excess number of base-station antennas, relative to the number of active terminals. This technology is a main component of 5G New Radio and addresses all important requirements of future wireless standards: a great capacity increase, the support of many simultaneous users, and improvement in energy efficiency.

This webinar will provide an in-depth survey look into 40 years of cross-disciplinary academic and industrial research and development work on radar tracking systems, starting from the former implementations based on the α – β, the Kalman filter, and up to the modern implementations based on random set filters.
