Zhi Ning CHEN (Fellow, IEEE and Fellow, SAEng) received his B.Eng., M.Eng., and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering from the Institute of Communications Engineering (ICE), China, in 1985, 1998, and 1993 and a second Ph.D. degree from the University of Tsukuba, Tsukuba, Japan, in 2003.
From 1988 to 1995, Dr. Chen was a lecturer and later a professor with ICE and a post‐doctoral fellow and later an associate professor with Southeast University, Nanjing, China. From 1995 to 1997, he was a research assistant and later a research fellow with the City University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong. In 2001 and 2004, he visited the University of Tsukuba twice under the JSPS Fellowship Program (senior fellow). In 2004, he joined the IBM Thomas J. Watson Research Center, Ossining, NY, USA, as an academic visitor. In 2013, he joined the “Laboratoire des SignauxetSystèmes,” UMR8506 CNRS—Supelec—University Paris Sud, Gif‐sur‐Yvette, France, as a Senior DIGITEO Guest Scientist. In 2015, he joined the Center for Northeast Asian Studies, Tohoku University, Sendai, Japan, as a senior visiting professor. From 1999 to 2016, he was a principal scientist, the head/manager of the RF and Optical Department, and a technical advisor with the Institute for Infocomm Research (I2R), Singapore. In 2012, he joined the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, National University of Singapore, Singapore, as a tenured full professor, the program director (Industry), and the founder and deputy director of the Advanced Research and Technology Innovation Center. He is holding/held the concurrent guest professorships at Southeast University (Changjiang Chair Professor), Nanjing University, Nanjing, China, Tsinghua University, Beijing, China, Shanghai Jiaotong University, Shanghai, China, Tongji University, Shanghai, University of Science and Technology of China, Hefei, China, Fudan University, Shanghai, Dalian Maritime University, Dalian, China, Chiba University, Chiba, Japan, National Taiwan University of Science and Technology, Taipei, Taiwan, South China University of Technology, Guangzhou, China, Shanghai University, Shanghai, Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications, Beijing, Yunnan University, Kunming, China, Beijing Institute of Technology, Beijing, and City University of Hong Kong. He is currently the member of the State Key Laboratory of Millimeter Waves, Southeast University and the State Key Laboratory of Terahertz and Millimeter Waves, City University of Hong Kong. He has been invited to deliver 100+ keynote/plenary/invited speeches at international academic and industrial events. He has authored 660+ academic articles and five books entitled BroadbandPlanar Antennas (Wiley, 2005), UWB Wireless Communication (Wiley, 2006), Antennas for Portable Devices (Wiley, 2007), Antennas for Base Stations in Wireless Communications (McGraw‐Hill, 2009), and Handbook of Antenna Technologies with 76 chapters (Springer References, 2016, as an editor‐in‐chief). He has also contributed the chapters to the books entitled Developments in Antenna Analysis and Design (IET, 2018), UWB Antennas and Propagation: For Communications, Radar and Imaging (Wiley, 2006), Antenna Engineering Handbook (McGraw‐Hill, 2007), Microstrip and Printed Antennas(Wiley, 2010), and Electromagnetics of Body Area Networks (Wiley, 2016). He is holding 36 granted/filed patents and completed 40+ technology licensed deals with industry. He is pioneering in developing small and wideband/ultrawideband antennas, wearable/implanted medical antennas, package antennas, near‐field antennas/coils, 3‐D integrated LTCC arrays, microwave lens antennas, microwave metamaterial‐metasurface (MTS)‐metaline‐based antennas for communications, sensing, and imaging systems. He is currently more interested in the translational research of MTSs into antenna engineering.
Dr. Chen was elevated a Fellow of the Academy of Engineering, Singapore in 2019 for the contribution to research, development, and commercialization of wireless technology and a Fellow of the IEEE for the contribution to small and broadband antennas for wireless applications in 2007. He was a recipient of the International Symposium on Antennas and Propagation Best Paper Award in 2010, the CST University Publication Awards in 2008 and 2015, the ASEAN Outstanding Engineering Achievement Award in 2013, the Institution of Engineers Singapore Prestigious Engineering Achievement Awards in 2006, 2013 (two awards), and 2014, the I2R Quarterly Best Paper Award in 2004, the IEEE iWAT Best Poster Award in 2005, several technology achievement awards from China during 1990–1997 as well as more than 23 academic awards by his students under his supervision. In 1997, he was awarded the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS) Fellowship to conduct his research at the University of Tsukuba. He has provided nine local and overseas telecommunication and IT MNCs and SMEs with technical consultancy service as a technical advisor, a guest professor, and a chief scientist. He is the Founding General Chair of the International Workshop on Antenna Technology (iWAT in 2005), the International Symposium on InfoComm & Mechatronics Technology in Biomedical & Healthcare Application (IS 3Tin3A in 2010), the International Microwave Forum (IMWF in 2010), and the Asia‐Pacific Conference on Antennas and Propagation (APCAP in 2012).
Dr. Chen has also been involved in many international events as general chairs, chairs, and members for technical program committees and international advisory committees. He served as a vice president for the IEEE Council on RFID (2015–2020), deputy editor in chief for IEEE Journal of RFID (2018–2020), and a distinguished lecturer since 2015. He served as an associate editor for the IEEE TRANSACTION ON ANTENNAS AND PROPAGATION (2010–2016) and as a distinguished lecturer for the IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society (2009–2012). He also served as the chair for the IEEE MTT/AP Singapore Chapter (2008) and as the founding chair for the IEEE RFID Singapore Chapter (2015 and 2019–2020). Dr. Chen is currently servicing the member for IEEE MTT‐29 on aerospace Committee as well as the general chair of 2021 IEEE International Symposium on Antennas and Propagation and USNC‐URSI Radio Science Meeting in Singapore.
Xianming QING (Fellow, IEEE) received his B. Eng. degree in electromagnetic field engineering from University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC), China, in 1985, and Ph.D. degree from Chiba University, Japan, in 2010.
From 1985 to 1996, Dr. Qing was with UESTC as a teaching assistant first, then a lecturer, and later an associate professor for teaching and research. He joined National University of Singapore (NUS) in 1997 as a research scientist for studying high temperature superconductor antennas. Since 1998, he has been with the Institute for Infocomm Research (I2R, formerly known as Center for Wireless Communication, CWC, and Institute for Communication Research, ICR), Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR), Singapore. He is currently holding the position of senior scientist and the leader of the RF Group in Signal processing, RF, and Optical Department. His main research interests are antenna design and characterization for wireless applications. In particular, his current R&D focuses on beam‐steering antennas, new material/metamaterial‐based antennas, near‐field antennas, medical antennas, and millimeter‐wave/sub‐millimeter‐wave antennas.
Dr. Qing has authored/co‐authored 270+ technical papers published in international journals or presented at international conferences. He is the editor of Handbook of Antenna Technologies (Springer, 2016).
