DESCRIPTION:IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society (AP-S) Distinguished Lect
 ure\n\nPlease join us for an upcoming lecture on 27 Apr. 2023 at 11 am –
  12 pm (Eastern Time) by Prof. Reyhan Baktur\, from Utah State University\
 , USA.\n\nOverview of CubeSats: from Concept to Orbit\n\nCubeSats are modu
 lar and standardized modern small satellites. They have been gaining stead
 y popularity as educational projects\, low-cost space exploration vehicles
  for technology demonstrations\, multi-point observations of space environ
 ment\, and monitoring/reporting proper deployment of expensive deep space 
 instruments.\n\nWith rapid advancement of electronics\, novel mechanical d
 esign\, and aerospace technology\, new progress in CubeSats is emerging ev
 ery day. This calls for interests and early involvements of creative young
  minds. The objective of this presentation is to convey the basics of Cube
 Sat development cycle\, launch methods\, typical CubeSat orbits\, link bud
 get analysis\, various antenna solutions\, and feasible classroom projects
 . For the interests of young professionals in electrical engineering\, thi
 s lecture features a tour of several recent CubeSat missions and antenna d
 esigns for spacecraft\, ground station\, and radio beacon.\n\nBiography\n\
 nDr. Reyhan Baktur is an associate professor at the department of Electric
 al and Computer Engineering (ECE)\, Utah State University (USU). Her resea
 rch interests include antennas and microwave engineering with a focus on a
 ntenna design for CubeSats\; optically transparent antennas\; multifunctio
 nal integrated antennas\, sensors\, and microwave circuits.\n\nShe is affi
 liated with the Center for Space Engineering at USU\, the Space Dynamics L
 aboratory (the university affiliated research center)\, and collaborates w
 ith NASA Goddard Space Flight Center.\n\nDr. Baktur is an an IEEE Antennas
  and Propagation (APS) Distinguished Lecturer of 2022-2024\, AdCom member 
 of IEEE APS\, and is active in US National Committee of the International 
 Union of Radio Science\, serving as the vice chair for commission B\, and 
 the inaugural chair for the Women in Radio Science.\n\nCo-sponsored by: To
