Introduction of Wireless topics to all undergraduate students

With the advent of 5G, cellular service has become part of all societies across the globe. With the use of Radars in cars, embedded devices in humans and animals, it behooves educators that basics of wireless communication is taught to every college student. The current practice of teaching wireless systems, antennas, EM waves, satellite communication or similar as topics exclusively to EE students must be complemented for some good reasons – questions from the public to any professional (except ECE), provides responses that are often guess estimates. Such guess work wastes time in unnecessary trials, proposals, that may not be supported with principles in Physics and Mathematics.

This talk provides an overview of wireless communication topics relevant to students of business, law,

economics, environmental, nursing or the liberal arts. These wireless topics are relevant to students who may not pursue engineering but must be aware of the underlying principles of wireless. The objective is to brainstorm with teachers and researchers about which topics can enhance the society, as a whole. Traditional engineering topics such as cellular, WLAN, Microwave links, Satellite communication, Vehicular technology and RF measurements are touched upon during this talk to convey perspectives from engineers in industry.
