Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RISs) provide a solution to signal loss, as urban buildings often contain essential reception stations on their rooftops. RIS are made up of thousands of cells, each typically consisting of layers of metal, insulators, and semiconductors, and are expected to greatly contribute to enabling 6G technology access. KAUST contributes to enhancing the Kingdom’s leadership in developing and adopting 6G communication technologies, attracting global companies to invest in infrastructure ECE Students Win Second Place Prize in IEEE IMS Student Design Competition 2024 in Washington DC 1 min read · Thu, Jul 25 2024 News The team comprising of students from IMPACT Lab (Hanguang Liao, Ruiqi Wang, and Yiming Yang) have won the Second Place Prize in the The IEEE International Microwave Symposium (IMS) Student Design Contest (SDC) in Washington DC, USA. IMS is the largest and most prestigious gathering of microwave professionals in the world, held by the microwave society, IEEE MTT-S. Every year, IMS hosts the SDC which is designed to encourage students to solve practical problems in an innovative fashion.
