We are delighted to announce that Shi Chen, who is a final year undergraduate student in ITT Dublin won this international student award from the IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society (MTT).

This award is based on her final year project work in the Department of Electronic Engineering. The title of her submission to the competition is:
The Investigation and Optimization of Radio Frequency
Low Noise Amplifier Energy Efficiency

Shi Chen - ITT Dublin wins IEEE MTTs Undergraduate Scholarship AwardThe project addresses a particular energy efficiency problem of Radio Frequency Low Noise Amplifiers, with particular focus on 2.45GHz ZigBee radio receivers.
The award includes a $1500 USD scholarship and a travel reimbursement of $1000USD.
Shi Chen has been invited to a student’s award luncheon on Thursday June 5, 2014 in Tampa Bay, USA. We want to congratulate Shi Chen on winning this prestigious award.
