Amazing Antennas
This presentation is aimed at 99.9 % of the population who know nothing about antennas and would like to enjoy learning a bit about them. An engineering background is neither necessary nor required, however, the subject is certainly aimed at the STEM oriented audience. There are only a few equations at a high school Algebra level and are used to show fundamental relationships. Most of the discussion is about individual antennas with a few slides showing how antenna arrays are used to improve performance. Come see what the electric fields inside a microwave oven look like and how to deal with them. What kind of an antenna in an air-to-air missile is used to track a moving target? Join the fun.

Bob Eisenhart
Biography:
A 1960 Distinguished Army ROTC graduate with a Bachelor’s in Engineering from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Bob served two years of active duty with the U.S. Army Security Agency in Arlington, Virginia, followed by three years in the reserves in Frankfurt, Germany. At the Agency, he managed critical "Electronic Monitoring Equipment," earning a special Letter of Commendation from the Assistant Secretary of Defense for his impactful work in Europe. After earning a Doctorate in Engineering from the University of Michigan in 1970, he joined Hughes Aircraft Company, focusing on Research & Development and retiring as Chief Scientist after 23 years. He subsequently established Eisenhart & Associates, providing consulting services on microwave circuits and antennas until 2018. Within IEEE, Dr. Eisenhart served in multiple leadership roles over two decades, notably as General Chairman of the 1999 International Microwave Symposium. Elected an IEEE Fellow in 1995 and Life Fellow in 2005, he received the Microwave Theory and Techniques Society’s prestigious Microwave Pioneer Award in 1999. His career focused on design, and he shared his expertise through numerous seminars at companies and universities.
