Research Experiences in Naval Electronic Warfare (RENEW)
Virtual, Hands-On Workshops<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We now are accepting applications for two free<\/span>, hands-on RF electronics workshop covering radio system design, radar systems, and electronic warfare. In light of COVID-19 restrictions, this workshop will be held entirely online. Physical hardware kits<\/span> will be mailed to participants, who will join daily guided discussion and laboratory sessions via Zoom. A select number of undergraduate students will be admitted to this program, but no electronics experience is necessary<\/span>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In these five-day interactive workshops, participants will learn the basic theory of modern digital radios<\/span>, radar systems<\/span>, and electronic warfare<\/span>. A beginner course is offered for students without a background in electrical engineering while an intermediate course is offered for more experienced students. In the beginner course, students will learn about signals, modulation, and electromagnetic waves while working with a software defined radio to generate and receive real over-the-air signals. In the intermediate course, students will model RF circuits with cutting edge software tools and fabricate and test the components of a simple radar system at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
