Sophomore Undergraduate Researchers Receive NYU Award

NYU WIRELESS sophomore undergraduate researchers Jocelyn Schulz (Electrical Engineering & Computer Science) and George Wong (Physics & Math) received the award for Best-in-Panel in “Mathematics and Modeling in Understanding of the Physical World” at the 39th annual NYU Undergraduate Research Conference on April 12, 2013. Schulz and Wong presented their work from Prof. Ted Rappaport’s group on a 3D statistical ray tracer for mm-wave frequencies, along with results from a 28 GHz urban propagation measurement campaign sponsored by Samsung. An abstract of their work will be published in the 17th volume of NYU’s journal of undergraduate research, Inquiry.
