Conference on Microwaves, Antenna,
Propagation and Remote Sensing
|
|
|
 |
The
International Centre
for Radio Science has
been organizing the
National Conference
from 1998. This was
the fourth conference
in series. The National
Conference on Microwaves,
Antenna, Propagation
and Remote Sensing was
organized for the first
time in the country. This
conference was held
from 19th December
2002 to 21st December
2002 and was sponsored
by various Scientific
Departments of Government
of India and Department
of Science and Technology,
Government of Rajasthan.
This conference was
unique because the participants
came from all over India
and this became precursor
for the 1st International
Conference on the same
subject, which was then
planned for the year
2003. The response was
very good for the conference.
The participants were
from various Institutions
from all over India.
They belonged to DRDO,
ISRO, different Research
Centers, IIT’s
and different Universities.
The contributions for
the conference were
from all these institutions. Dr.
R.C.Chakraborthy, Director,
Defense Terrain Research
Laboratory inaugurated
the conference and the
function was persuaded
by Dr. R.K.Sayal Director,
Defense Laboratory Jodhpur.
Prof. O.P.N.Calla, Chairman
and Director, ICRS welcomed
the participants. Dr.
Natwarlal Purohit gave
vote of thanks. |

Systems. Dr. K.S.Rao
gave an invited talk
on the Applications
of Interferometric SAR. On
second day i.e. on 20th December 2002, four
sessions were covered.
Dr. Rampal gave the
invited talk on the
EW Antenna systems used
in Defense. The topics
discussed on this day
in technical sessions
were Antenna Theory
including Smart Antennas,
Microstrip and Wideband
Antenna &
Measurement, Propagation
of Radio Waves and Antenna
Array & Pattern
Synthesis. On
third day i.e. on 21st December
2002, two invited talks
were there. Dr. G. Raju
gave the talk on Meghatropiques
and Dr. Ramesh Garg
on Microstrip Antennas.
In addition, three Technical
Sessions were also held.
The first session was
on Dielectric Properties
of Natural Materials.
The second session was
on Passive Remote Sensing
and the third session
on Active Remote Sensing
and Signal Processing
was the last and final
technical session. This
was then followed by
a Panel Discussion. The
Panel was chaired by
Prof. O.P.N.Calla and
the members on the Panel
were Dr. Chicharkar,
