This student travel grant will support students to attend the 2024 IEEE Dynamic Spectrum Access Networks (DySPAN) conference in Washington, DC, on May 13–16, 2024. DySPAN is a premier conference focused on dynamic spectrum access networks and advanced wireless research, a priority area for NSF and a national interest highlighted by the CHIPS and Science Act of 2022. The conference brings together researchers, engineers, policymakers, and industry professionals to discuss the latest developments, challenges, and innovations in dynamic spectrum access and related areas. Attending a conference in Washington, DC, may place a significant financial burden on prospective student attendees, particularly those with limited resources or not supported through existing Federal research grants. With financial assistance, students may bear the costs of attending the conference and, as such, avail invaluable opportunities for learning, networking, and career advancement. This NSF student travel grant will play a pivotal role in addressing these challenges by providing essential financial support to offset the costs for students, ensuring that the benefits of attending the conference are accessible to a broader audience from diverse backgrounds.This student travel grant will support up to 12 full-time students from U.S. universities who are first-time attendees to DySPAN, regardless of their citizenship and visa status. Each student will receive up to $1,250.00 for covering or offsetting their travel expenses to attend DySPAN. The students will be able to use their travel grants for different travel expenses, e.g., ground or air transportation, conference registration fees, lodging, and meals. In accordance with the Fly America Act, we will inform student applicants that any flights purchased using the funds from this travel grant must either be (i) on a U.S.-based carrier or (ii) ticketed through a U.S. carrier, e.g., codeshare flights on international airlines. The student travel grant announcement will encourage participation from underrepresented minorities in higher education, e.g., women, LatinX, African Americans, and Native Americans, as well as students from disadvantaged backgrounds. We will prioritize students who have accepted posters, papers, demos, or workshops at the conference.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

这笔学生旅费补助金将支持学生参加 2024 年 5 月 13 日至 16 日在华盛顿特区举行的 2024 年 IEEE 动态频谱接入网络 (DySPAN) 会议。DySPAN 是专注于动态频谱接入网络和先进无线研究的重要会议，这是 NSF 的优先领域，也是 2022 年《CHIPS 和科学法案》强调的国家利益。会议汇集了研究人员、工程师、政策制定者和行业专业人士，讨论最新的发展、挑战、参加在华盛顿特区举行的会议可能会给潜在的学生带来沉重的经济负担，特别是那些资源有限或没有现有联邦研究补助金支持的学生可能会承受经济援助。 NSF 学生旅行补助金将通过提供必要的财务支持来抵消学生的费用，从而在应对这些挑战方面发挥关键作用。更广泛的受众可以从参加会议的好处中受益该学生旅行补助金将支持最多 12 名首次参加 DySPAN 的美国大学全日制学生，无论其公民身份和签证状态如何，每位学生都将获得最多 1,250.00 美元的旅行费用，用于支付或抵消他们的旅行费用。参加 DySPAN 的学生将能够使用其旅行补助金支付不同的旅行费用，例如地面或空中交通、会议注册费、住宿和膳食。将告知学生申请人，使用此旅行补助金购买的任何航班必须 (i) 由美国航空公司运营，或 (ii) 通过美国航空公司出票，例如国际航空公司的代码共享航班。将鼓励代表性不足的少数群体（例如女性、拉丁裔、非裔美国人和美洲原住民）以及来自弱势背景的学生参与高等教育。我们将优先考虑已接受海报、论文、演示或内容的学生。这反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并且通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
