They provide opportunities for newcomers to become exposed to a new field, and allow veterans to hone their skills.

There you are on an inflatable life raft in the middle of the ocean, with no map, no compass, and not even an imaginary tiger to help you out. The vast expanse of ocean suggests unlimited possibilities, but you feel powerless to steer your vessel in any one specific direction, so you float aimlessly in the murky unknown, waiting for a passing fishing boat or a helicopter to rescue you. The wait, like the disappearing horizon on the sea, seems endless......

Aloha! We’ve made it to the last few weeks of 2016, and all of the traditional indicators of the winter season are upon us. Here in Honolulu, the humpback whales have returned after their long summer absence, and daytime highs have plummeted from 85°F (29°C) to a chilly 81°F (27°C). It is indeed a wintery wonderland.

After the first upper cut, came a flying side kick to the chest…yeah, this is not an MMA competition. This is a competition of the best student minds. At IMS2016 in San Francisco, the MTT-5 committee organized the 12th annual High Efficiency Power Amplifier Student Design Competition (HEPA SDC). Dr. Joe Staudinger, Dr. Kiki Ikossi, Dr. Joe Qiu directed this year’s contest to focus on PAs having both high efficiency and linearity. Here is a snap shot of the rules for the 2016 competition.
