The first international Ukrainian Microwave Week “ IEEE Ukrainian Microwave Week ” was held from 21 to 25 September. The UkrMW-2020 is the first international microwave week, which was organized with the aim of bringing together several microwave, antenna and radar conferences and symposia that traditionally take place in Ukraine. The following conferences were held as part of the microwave week:
- 2020 IEEE 10th International Kharkiv Symposium on Physics and Engineering of Microwaves, Millimeter and Submillimeter Waves (MSMW)
- 2020 IEEE 12th International Conference on Antenna Theory and Techniques (ICATT)
- 2020 IEEE 6th International Symposium on Microwaves, Radar and Remote Sensing (MRRS)
- 2020 IEEE 10th International Conference on Ultrawideband and Ultrashort Impulse Signals (UWBUSIS)
Due to the epidemiological situation, the event was held by video conference: four virtual rooms were open during the week. About 200 reports were presented by Ukrainian scientists and about 50 reports by leading world scientists from different countries. About 3/4 of the reports of Ukrainian scientists represented the city of Kharkiv – a well-known center of microwave, radar and antenna research in Ukraine and the world. About 50 employees of our faculty actively participated in the work of the conference as authors or co-authors of publications and presented their work. Within the framework of the microwave week, two schools of young scientists were held, where invited speakers shared their experience and knowledge with young scientists.
