A University of Waterloo team has been selected as a finalist in the 2016 IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society (IEEE AP-S) student competition out of 50 international participating teams. Team Waterloo is the only North American team among the selected six finalists competing for the best design of a wireless energy harvesting system. The final stage of the competition will be held in June at the annual IEEE AP-S meeting in the USA. The team members are: Luyao Chen (second year Master's student in Electrical and Computer Engineering), Luxsumi Jeeva (first year Master's student in Electrical and Computer Engineering) , Ben Milligan (undergraduate student in Nanotechnology Engineering) and Shiran Qu (undergraduate student in Mechatronics Engineering). The team is supervised by Dr. George Shaker, Adjunct Assistant Professor in Electrical and Computer Engineering.
