Join us for an evening of conversation, networking, and refreshments at the IEEE Aerospace and Electronic Systems Society (AESS) Fireside Chat and Cocktail Hour from 6-9pm on September 22nd.

This event is an opportunity to learn more about IEEE AESS, our technical community, and network with fellow professionals working in aerospace, electronics, radar, sensing, navigation, and related fields.

During the fireside chat, AESS leaders will share their experiences, perspectives on the Society and its activities, and how IEEE can help you in your career. Following the discussion, attendees will have the opportunity to connect informally with AESS leaders and fellow professionals over a complementary cocktail reception, courtesy of IEEE.

Whether you are already involved with IEEE AESS, work in a related technical field, or are simply interested in learning more, we invite you to join us for an engaging and relaxed evening with the local aerospace and electronics community.

Luke Rosenberg

Biography:

A person smiling at cameraLuke Rosenberg (FIEEE) received the bachelor’s degree in electrical and electronic engineering, the master’s degree in signal and information processing, and the Ph.D degree from the University of Adelaide, Australia, in 1999, 2001, and 2007, respectively. In 2016, he completed the Graduate Program in Scientific Leadership at the University of Melbourne, Australia. He leads the Radar Sensing and Exploitation group at STELaRLab, Lockheed Martin Australia and is an adjunct Associate Professor with the University of Adelaide.

 Prior to this he was a Research Specialist at the Defence Science and Technology Group, Australia. His work covers the areas of radar image formation, classification, adaptive filtering, detection theory, and radar and clutter modelling. In 2014, he spent 12 months with the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) working on algorithms for focusing moving scatterers in synthetic aperture radar imagery.

Dr. Rosenberg has received a number of best paper awards, the prestigious Defence Science and Technology Achievement Award for Science and Engineering Excellence in 2016 and the IEEE AESS Fred Nathanson award in 2018 for ‘Fundamental Experimental and Theoretical Work in Characterizing Radar Sea Clutter’. In 2023, he became an IEEE Fellow for contributions to maritime radar.

He is an officer of the AESS board of governors, member of the radar systems panel, a distinguished lecturer for the AESS, senior editor for the Transactions of Aerospace and Electronic Systems and past chair of the IEEE South Australian Section. He has over 170 publications including a book on Radar Sea Clutter: Modelling and Detection.
