The Education Committee (EdCom) of the IEEE EMC Society would like to invite students currently enrolled in a college or university at either the Ph.D., graduate, or undergraduate level to submit a PowerPoint slide set that demonstrates a method for locating an RF source in the presence of unknown reflections. Specifically, three low-power radio transmitters operating on different frequencies near 146 MHz will be hidden in the exhibit hall of the EMC+SIPI 2024 Symposium. The task for the team is to locate each transmitter as quickly as possible.
To accomplish this task, it is preferred that each group design a suitable antenna, or devise another means, to pinpoint the locations. It is left to the team to decide if they wish to use commercial equipment or devise a receiver particularly suited to this application.
The top three selected teams will be required to attend the Symposium to demonstrate their design and might have to construct their antenna for purposes of this demonstration. The teams will have a one-hour time period to demonstrate their solution and find the transmitters.
Other equipment such as a portable spectrum analyzer can be provided by the EMC Society onsite.
