Distinguished Microwave Lecturers

The Microwave Theory and Techniques Society, in conjunction with the technical coordinating committees, each year carefully selects a group of Distinguished Microwave Lecturers who are recognized experts in their fields.

Microwaves are generally defined as electromagnetic waves with a frequency between 300 MHz to 300 GHz. Typically, the wavelengths of these electromagnetic waves are defined as well, with the range being from 1m to 1mm. Microwaves obey the laws of optics, such as Snell’s law and the law of reflection, and thus can be transferred, assimilated, or reflected, which is extremely important when considering how microwaves operate.

Microwaves are ubiquitous in modern technology. As one may realize upon noting that television programs are available across the globe, the wide frequency/wavelength of microwaves allows for the transcontinental transference of television content. Using a variety of intricate networks (i.e. transmitter and receiver) local stations receive television signals and instantly transfigure the signal to a more appropriate, lower signal so personal television sets can broadcast the desired content. Microwaves are also local security channels. For example, missile guidance infrastructures utilize microwaves in order to control the parameters and speed of their missiles.
