RESEARCH REPORT

Army Research Lab Supports Moeness Amin’s Cognitive Radar Research

Army Research Lab Supports Moeness Amin’s Cognitive Radar Research

Dr. Moeness Amin, director of the Center for Advanced Communications, has received approximately $400,000 in funding from the Army Research Lab to conduct a three-year research project on cognitive radar. Cognitive radars sense the environment and learn from relevant information about the target, clutter, terrain and background and then adapt the radar sensor to optimally satisfy the needs of its mission. Dr. Amin’s expertise in radar has been recognized by several organizations and professional societies and has earned him three technical achievements awards, two medals, and four fellow grades.

Graduate Students Recognized in Engineers’ Week Poster Competition

Graduate Students Recognized in Engineers’ Week Poster Competition

As a part of Engineers' Week in February, more than 20 graduate students presented their work virtually for the 4th Annual Graduate Student Poster Competition. Engineering faculty evaluated the posters in two categories—technical excellence and presentation excellence—and prizes were awarded. Electrical and Computer Engineering PhD student Yue Qi took third place in technical excellence.
