Welcome to New Delhi, India and IMaRC 2013!IMaRC 2013 and subsequent IMaRC events will be the premier microwave and RF theory conferences in India. Maintaining the high technical standards of the IEEE MTT-S is our primary goal while providing an exciting and technically challenging program for all of the attendees. When we first wrote these goals one year ago, we were unsure if we would be able to fulfill them, but after reviewing the papers of this first IMaRC and organizing the technical program, we hope you agree that we have succeeded. 177 papers were submitted to IMaRC, and 65 of these papers were accepted for presentation, for an acceptance rate of 37%. These papers will be presented in oral and poster sessions over three days. In addition, there are special sessions on satellite communications, filters and packaging. The conference and the technical program will be started by a plenary session, followed by a special session acknowledging and celebrating important electromagnetic scientists from India.

Throughout the conference, we encourage all of the authors to share their research results and the audience to ask questions and provide feedback to the authors. These are required for a successful conference. Furthermore, we encourage all of the attendees to share a good time in technical discussions during the breaks and social events.

Thank you for attending IMaRC 2013!

Technical Talks and Keynote Address: Promising Future of RF and Wireless Technology Research in India R. Shevgaonkar, IIT Delhi, New Delhi, IndiaAbstract: The microwave research in India dates back to the late 19th century. Sir Jagdish Chandra Bose was the pioneer of the microwave research not only in India but in the world. He was the first scientist to develop millimeter wave detector which appears to have been used by Marconi in his first ever wireless transmission of RF signals across the Atlantic Ocean.The talk highlights the RF activities in India over last six decades.

He has been a member of many international and national research and educational committees.

Microwave Receiver and Design Principles U. L. Rohde, Synergy Microwave Corp., University of Cottbus (BTU), 3TUB Abstract: The keynote address describes the sophisticated digital signal processing implemented in all modern receivers. The implementation is optimized for applica-

tions such as detecting unknown signals, identifying interference, spectrum monitoring, spectrum clearance, and signal search over wide frequency ranges, producing signal content and direction finding of identified signals. The advantages of digital signal processing for radio monitoring operators in their daily work are also explained.

Bio: Prof. Ulrich L Rohde is the chairman of Synergy Microwave Corp., Paterson, New Jersey. He is also the president of Communications Consulting Corporation, serving as an honorary member of the Senate of the Department of Defense, Technical University Munich, Germany. He has been a member of the Board of Directors of Ansoft Corporation, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and is a partner of Rohde & Schwarz, Munich, Germany. Prior to being appointed Honorary Profes-sor of RF and Microwave Technologies in April 2002 at the University of Cottbus, Dr. Rohde served the University as a Visiting Professor of RF and Microwave Technologies in 2001. He has been a member of the staff at George Washington University (1982) and as an adjunct professor teaching in the Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences Departments.

Honoring India’s PioneersMore than a Century of Fundamental Research LegacySaturday, 14 December 2013 | 1100-1240 | Royal Ballroom 2/3

Organizers: Ramesh K Gupta, LightSquared Madhukar V. Pitke, Tata Institute of Fundamental Research

Abstract: IMaRC 2013, the first fully IEEE MTT-S sponsored conference in India, is being held in a year which also marks 125th Birth Anniversary of Nobel Laureate Sir CV Raman and represents more than a century after Sir JC Bose made fundamental discoveries leading to development of mm-waves, point contact detectors and demon-stration of Wireless technology. This Inaugural session will honor these pioneers and explore their national and global impacts on RF and Microwave techniques and also explore the promising future of RF/Wireless research activities in India.

“Sir JC Bose – His Fundamental Contributions to RF and Microwave Technologies”Prof S. Ananthakrishnan, University of Pune

Abstract: Sir JC Bose is well known in the Microwave community for his pioneering work on generation and detection of mm-waves in late 19th century. He was a contemporary of Hertz/ Maxwell and demonstrated wave gen-eration with 5-6 mm wavelength (60 GHz). In 1895, he made first public demonstration of electromagnetic waves by exploding gun powder in adjacent room using EM waves. This talk will explore his life and works and also address the impact his work has had on modern Microwave techniques and technologies.

“Honoring Sir CV Raman at his 125th Birth Anniversary”Prof. R. Nagarajan, University of Mumbai

Abstract: Nobel Prize winning Physicist Sir C V Rāman demonstrated that when light passes through a transparent material some of the light changes in wavelength. His discovery was named the Raman Effect. The Raman Effect is observed in only a small number of photons making the effect difficult to observe. Raman initially used the Sun as a source of light. Later he acquired a small refracting telescope to condense the sunlight and then switched to mercury arc lamps. His fundamental discoveries – ‘Raman Effect’ and ‘Raman Amplification’ have been successfully used in Optics. Raman Spectroscopy has also found wide applications in Microwave spectroscopy applications as well. This paper will explore the impact of Raman’s work on Microwave/RF technologies

Honoring India’s Pioneers (cont.)“Induction of JC Bose and CV Raman at National Electronics Museum’s Pioneers Hall”Mr. Michael A. Simons, National Electronics Museum

Abstract: National Electronics Museum honored Sir JC Bose in 2008 and Sir CV Raman in 2012 by in-ducting them in Museum’s Pioneers Hall. A permanent exhibit is under development for both of these pioneers from India. In 2012, the Museum undertook development of their experi-ments at he Museum under a grant from InfoSys. Modern demonstrations of the Raman Effect use powerful lasers and expensive lens. The cost of the lasers and associated equipment puts the experiment out of reach of most students not associated with a well funded university. In honor of the 125th anniversary of the the birth of C.V. Raman the National Electronics Museum of Baltimore, Maryland set out to build a low cost demonstration of the Raman Effect. Using an inexpensive laser and lens combined with found and fabricated mounts combined with a com-plete set of plans, the museum has created a demonstration within the reach of most students.
