2023 IEEE North Jersey Section Student Presentation Competition

Room: M105, Bldg: Muscarelle Center M105, 1000 River Rd. , North Parking Lot, Teaneck, New Jersey, United States, 07666

Undergraduate and Graduate students must be enrolled full time in a program of electrical engineering study at an educational institution located in the IEEE North Jersey Section of Region 1. A brief abstract must be submitted to M. Lewis before 14 March 2023. Participating students must be members of the IEEE or have their IEEE application pending. There will be separate first, second, and third place winners for Undergraduate and Graduate categories. No equipment demonstration or formal technical paper is required, this is a presentation competition. Judging of the presentation will be based on its organization of content, oral presentation, knowledge of the material, and clarity / legibility of images, charts, graphs, and text where applicable. All entries must report on the student’s own research or original circuit design/build/test. No team projects or research. No multiple presenters per entry. Topic may be describing either ongoing or completed work. Only one entry per student.

Presentation on Software Defined Wireless Spectrum Servers

Room: Armstrong 136, Bldg: Armstrong (Building at the entrance, stay right, Armstrong Parking Gate Should be Open otherwise Lot 5 offers Open Parking), 2000 Pennington Road, Ewing, New Jersey, New Jersey, United States, 08638

Abstract: The advance of inexpensive software-defined radio modules, FFT and demodulation software libraries and low-cost servers (RasPi or Ubuntu Linux), enables the remote visualization, selection, and demodulation of RF signals. The history, SP theory, and architecture of this novel remote spectrum receiver will be covered and solutions demoed. What makes this discussed spectrum monitoring solution unique is that the User Interface is any (HTML5) standard web browser! The idea of a RF spectrum server on the internet technology was initially pioneered by the NSA to remotely capture and analyze transmissions of interest but this idea was prototyped at a fraction of the cost by DSP signals experts, and amateur radio club members at the University of Twente (The Netherlands) and fellow communications students, created WebSDR.org. This Linux-based application software was distributed to international experimenters and amateur radio enthusiasts, eager to see their transmitted signal power spectra at a distant location. .This was followed by a Hungarian engineering student, Andras.Retzler, who rewrote code and released his open-sourced version known as OpenWebRX (earned both his BSEE Senior Project and MSEE Thesis from this project).
