Abstract :
Congratulations to Dr. Philip Woodward, recipient of the IEEE Picard Model for his pioneering work in radar waveform design. This award is made by the IEEE Awards Board and was originally to be presented late Spring at the 2009 Radar Conference in California; as it could not be presented then, it was presented in October in Malvern, England, as depicted on our cover. Additional congratulations are extended to Dr. Woodward for receiving the Tompion Medal of the Worshipful Company of Clockmakers for his skills in horology.
