Technical Committee 10: Environment
Environment, Power, Sustainability, Climate Change, Societal Impacts
Roles
The roles of the AP-S TC on Environment are to advance research and innovation in the environmental applications of antennas and propagation, while also addressing the environmental impacts of wireless technologies. This includes fostering the development of sustainable antenna systems, promoting power-efficient wireless communication, and facilitating solutions for environmental monitoring, disaster management, and climate action. The TC aims to provide a collaborative platform for academia, industry, and policymakers to exchange ideas and implement strategies that balance technological progress with ecological sustainability. Additionally, the TC focuses on evaluating and mitigating the ecological footprint of antenna and wireless systems through research, policy recommendations, and global outreach activities such as workshops, conferences, and special sessions.
Scope
- Antenna systems and networks for climate monitoring and weather prediction.
- Energy-efficient wireless technologies for minimizing environmental impact.
- Wireless communication and sensing for disaster preparedness, response, and recovery.
- Development and use of sustainable materials in antenna and RF system design.
- Antennas and sensors for precision agriculture and resource management.
- Ecological impact assessment and mitigation strategies for wireless systems.
- Solutions for integrating wireless technologies into renewable energy infrastructures.
- Wireless connectivity for green buildings, smart cities, and sustainable urban environments.
- Environmental applications of antennas in air, water, and soil quality monitoring.
- Advocacy and research for regulatory compliance and environmentally conscious standards in wireless communication.
