The summer school on wireless communications is designed to promote early research by engaging students in fun and interactive learning about wireless networks and the radio spectrum they use. This will be a four-day camp, including activities that will introduce students to the radio spectrum as a precious natural resource that fuels various applications. The school will delve into wireless network architectures and existing technologies (e.g., Cellular, Wi-Fi, and Phone-to-Phone). We will also discuss key shortcomings in these technologies that require further innovation. The school will also introduce students to non-commercial uses of the spectrum such as climate monitoring, weather prediction, and radio astronomy. Hands-on activities will introduce students to wireless network measurement tools and analysis.
This camp will take place in person at four locations: The Ohio State University, the University at Albany, the University of Puerto Rico Mayaguez, and the National Radio Astronomy Observatory.
Registration is required. The registration deadline is Monday, July 21, 2025.
