| Message from the EiC |
Welcome to the June 2021 issue of VTS Mobile World – your IEEE Vehicular Technology Society newsletter.
This issue begins with a message from Society President Abbas Jamalipour about his mission for VTS in 2021. Then, VTS Vice President—Land Transportation Cara Levy gives an overview of the work done in standards by her VTS division through its standards subcommittees.
You will also find the latest news on IEEE Standards Project P2982 - Millimeter-Wave Channel Sounder Verification, a report from the VTS Ad Hoc Committee on Electric Railway Systems, and a recently published paper from IEEE Open Journal of Vehicular Technology, as well as links to our conference portals.
As always, I am always available to hear your feedback; just send me a note at Richard.Yu@ieee.org. Read More... |
