Mission

  • MTT-20 Technical Committee is responsible for all technical activities related to wireless communications systems for the Microwave Theory and Techniques Society. The goal of the members is to disseminate information on existing systems and standards as well as promote emerging technologies in this area of interest. The Committee generally meets two times each year; once in January at the IMS TPC meeting and again in June during the IMS week. Any MTT members interested in assisting the goals of this committee are welcome to attend the meeting.
