Faster, Smarter, Energy-Efficient Sensors with New Digital Twin

Posted on August 12, 2025 by Marco Iskander

From drones to security systems, a team of researchers at Texas A&M University is reimagining how future technologies sense and process the world around them. With a new National Science Foundation (NSF) grant, they are creating advanced digital twins of intelligent computer chips that could revolutionize how devices gather and use information.

The project is led by our very own Dr. Linda Katehi in collaboration with Dr. Jian Tao, assistant professor in the College of Performance, Visualization and Fine Arts. The team is developing smarter, faster and more energy-efficient electronics, starting with digital twin technology!

SIGN UP NOW! Rohde & Schwarz VNA and Spectrum Analyzer Training | Sep. 20th, 2024

Posted on September 12, 2024 by Marco Iskander

The iEMSL is pleased to announce that the Rohde & Schwarz engineering team will run an in-person full-day training sessions on vector network analyzers (VNAs) and spectrum analyzers on September 20, 2024 (flyer is attached).

This training is designed to be both educational and hands-on, allowing you to perform real-world measurements using R&S VNAs and spectrum analyzers that can directly benefit your lab work. We’ll start the day with introductory measurements and progress to more advanced techniques in the afternoon. If you are attending, please sign up for either the morning or afternoon session, or both if you’d like. We look forward to seeing you there!

We highly recommend ECEN322 (or similar) being a prerequisite for attending the training.

Agenda
► 8:30 AM – 11:30 AM | Intro to VNA/Spectrum Analyzer Measurements
– S-parameters, Basic Calibration, VNA vs Signal Analyzers
– Measurements on R&S ZVA network analyzer and FSV spectrum analyzer

► 1:00 PM – 4:00 PM | More Advanced Topics on VNAs/Spectrum Analyzers
– Active Measurements for Amplifiers/Mixers on VNA and Spectrum Analyzer
– Considerations for active devices, P1dB, IIP3, NF, etc.

Pizza will be provided between sessions. Registration from here.
