What we’re about
Welcome! We are the Princeton / Central Jersey Section of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE / PCJS). We hold regular meetings on a variety of subjects, covering topics in science and engineering, information technology, and professional development.
This is a group for engineers, Information Technology (IT) folks, students, and anybody interested in pushing the envelope of our modern, tech-driven world. Sponsored by the IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers), our meetings are open to all.
Our meetings are open to the public, and free of charge, unless otherwise noted. You need not be an IEEE member to attend.
Our chapters and groups include:
• Antennas and Propagation / Electronic Devices / MicrowaveTheory and Techniques
• Broadcast Technology
• Circuits and Systems
• Consumer Electronics and Communications
• Computer Society (joint chapter with Princeton ACM)
• Engineering in Medicine and Biology
• IEEE Education Society
• Photonics
• Power and Energy Society
• Robotics and Automation
• Signal Processing
• Solid-State Circuits Society
• Professional Activities Committee for Engineers (PACE)
• Young Professionals
• Consultants Network
• Women in Engineering
...and student branches at:
• The College of New Jersey
• Princeton University
• Rutgers University
• DeVry University - North Brunswick
• Middlesex County College
• Pre-University Student Branches

The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) is a non-profit organization with over 400,000 members in more than 160 countries. The IEEE is the world’s largest professional association advancing innovation and technological excellence for the benefit of humanity. IEEE and its members inspire a global community to innovate for a better tomorrow through its highly cited publications, conferences, technology standards, and professional and educational activities. IEEE is the trusted “voice” for engineering, computing and technology information around the globe. The IEEE publishes a third of the world’s technical literature in electrical engineering, computer science and electronics and is a leading developer of international standards that underpin many of today's telecommunications, information technology and power generation products and services.

PRINCETON ACM / IEEE COMPUTER SOCIETY CHAPTERS
MAY, 2025 JOINT MEETING"Analysis of Wireless Communications Risks" - Joe Jesson, RF Sigint Group
This presentation explores and analyzes some interesting wireless security issues - based on recent posts in ACM's "THE RISKS DIGEST", Volume 34, Issues 50-59. We will explore these issues in detail:
- Unencrypted and insecure communications with Chinese servers
- Multiple unencrypted protocols of aircraft digital communications
- Spoofing of GNSS navigation systems.
Drone and counter-drone technology is a hot topic today, and we continue to see postings about it in the RISKS Digest. At the present time, technically advanced UAV/UAS systems are being delivered to Ukraine (to both Russian and Ukrainian forces) by China, Turkey, and other countries. War is a test bed for technology - countries which manufacture and supply intelligence-based or kinetic drones want to test weapons in a live battle setting, and many predict WWIII will be a drone war.
Electromagnetic detection signatures will be shown, and we will review some specific detection and counter-drone immobilization equipment. Some of these systems were delivered by the Pentagon to the NJ Picatinny arsenal and Earle military bases in New Jersey. Other risks, such as an IED aerial delivery system, have been posted on RISKS. We will show how such a delivery system can be easily purchased by the Chinese supplier, TEMU.
Joe Jesson is CEO of RF Sigint Group and has over 25+ years of engineering and management experience. Joe is also an Adjunct ECE Professor at The College of New Jersey. In the recent past, Joe co-founded & was CTO of Asset Intelligence, a GE business which designed and sold remote IoT smart sensors for the logistics and energy sectors. He has a Master's degree from DePaul University, and he is working on a PhD.
