The IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society (MTT-S) Technical Committee MTT-20 (originally MTT-17) was formed in 1997 to address the needs of some 25,000 RF engineers whose work was primarily at frequencies below 1 GHz. Fritz Raab and Clark Bell presented the idea to the MTT-S Administrative Committee and served as the first chairmen. Prior to the formation of MTT-20, no IEEE Society served the high-, very high-, and ultrahigh-frequency (HF/ VHF/UHF) community. Publications were scattered among many trade conferences and trade journals as there was no place within IEEE to publish on these topics.

MTT-20 关于 HF/VHF/UHF 技术 [MTT 协会新闻]


IEEE 微波理论与技术协会 (MTT-S) 技术委员会 MTT-20（最初为 MTT-17）成立于 1997 年，旨在满足约 25,000 名主要工作频率低于 1 GHz 的射频工程师的需求。 Fritz Raab 和 Clark Bell 向 MTT-S 管理委员会提出了这个想法，并担任首届主席。在 MTT-20 成立之前，没有 IEEE 协会为高频、甚高频和超高频 (HF/VHF/UHF) 社区提供服务。出版物分散在许多贸易会议和贸易期刊中，因为 IEEE 内没有地方可以发表这些主题的文章。
