Amir Mortazawi (S'87-M'90) was born in Iran in 1962. He received the B.S. degree in electrical
engineering from the State University of New York at Stony Brook in 1987, and the M.S. and
Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering from the University of Texas at Austin, in 1988 and
1990, respectively.
In 1990, he joined the University of Central Florida, Orlando, FL, where he is currently an
Associate Professor of Electrical Engineering. He has published over 40 papers in the area of
microwave circuits. His research interests include millimeter-wave power combining oscillators
and amplifiers, quasioptical techniq_ues and nonlinear analysis of microwave circuits.
Dr. Mortazawi served as Orlando AP/MTT chapter chairman for 1994 to 1995.
Vijay K. Nair (SM'91) was born on May 7, 1946 in Kerala, India. He received the B.Sc. degree
from University of Kerala, India in 1966. He received the M.S. degree in physics and the M.S.
degree in electrical engineering from University of Minnesota in 1979 and 1981, respectively.
From 1968 to 1971, he worked as a Research Assistant at Tata Institute of Fundamental
Research, Bombay, India. From 1973 to 1975 he was employed as Senior Research Assistant
at Indian Scientific Satellite Project of Indian Space Research Organization. In 1975 he joined
University of Minnesota as Research Assistant. In 1981, he joined Bendix (now Allied Signal)
Aerospace Technology Center to do research work in GaAs and InP devices and circuits. in
1984, he joined Motorola Semiconductor Research and Development Labs. He is now the
Manager of RF Technologies, Motorola Phoenix Corporate Research Laboratories. His current
responsibilities include development of compound semiconductor devices and circuits for RF
and microwave applications. He has published over 30 papers in the area of GaAs devices and
MMIC designs. He has four issued patents.

The 1995 IEEE MTT-S International Microwave
Symposium: "Microwaves on the Move!"
Gene Keith Huddleston, Senior Member, IEEE, and Rudolph E. Henning, Life Fellow, IEEE
WE ARE DELIGHTED to report the success of the 1995
IEEE International Microwave Symposium (IMS '95),
held in Orlando May 14-19. The Orange County Convention
Center did their part in hosting 6,482 attendees during Mi
crowave Week, including 1,634 MTT-S attendees and 489 total
exhibits. The Orlando Housing Bureau reserved 12,594 hotel
room nights, and our 11 hotels reported 9,251 room nights
actually used. Gray Line of Orlando provided convenient
transportation to and from all events. We expect the financial
outcome to reflect the success that was so evident at the
meeting.
"Microwaves on the Move!" was an aptly chosen theme
as suggested by Rudy Henning. Larry Brockman's well
organized technical program was initiated by the wireless
workshop on Sunday, attended by 158 persons. It reflected

the interest in this one dynamic new application as well as
the movement from defense to commercial arenas. Roger
J. Rusch's presentation, "Moving Cellular Communications
into Space," was very well attended at the Plenary Session
on Tuesday and showed these new applications moving into
space and all over the Earth. Jim Wiltse and Parveen Wahid
organized 19 workshops occurring on Sunday, Monday, and
Friday and had a total attendance of 881. They were ably
assisted by Issa Batarseh and Kalpathy Sunderam.
We sadly noted the passing of Mario A. Maury, Jr., on
March 30, 1995. Mario was Vice President of MTT-S and
well known and respected throughout the microwave indus
try. Along with George Oltman, Mario was instrumental in
selecting Orlando as the site of the 1995 symposium. We will
miss him.
