Dr. Ke Wu (born 9 December 1962 in Liyang, Jiangsu, China) is professor of Electrical Engineering at the Ecole Polytechnique(University of Montreal), and Tier-I Canada Research Chair in Radio-Frequency (RF) and Millimetre-Wave Engineering. He is Director of the Poly-Grames Research Center, and the Founding Director of a Canadian university-industry consortium called Facility for Advanced Millimetre-wave Engineering (FAME) and the Center for Radiofrequency Electronics Research of Quebec (or Centre de recherche en électronique radiofréquence (CREER) – a strategic alliance of Québec). He also holds the first Cheung Kong endowed chair professorship (visiting) at the Southeast University and the first Sir Yue-Kong Pao chair professorship (visiting) at the Ningbo University, China.
Prof. Ke Wu was the General chair for the IEEE MTT-S International Microwave Symposium 2012 which was organized by IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society in the Montreal. This was the first time since 1978 that the premier conference in the field moved to outside the US territory, and this conference had about 15000 participants and more than 1000 exhibitors coming from around the world.
Dr. Wu has received many coveted awards and prizes, including a URSI Young Scientist Award, the Oliver Lodge Premium Award from the IEE, the Asia-Pacific Microwave Prize, the Prix Poly 1873 pour l'Excellence en recherche – the Top University Research Award (the first recipient) from the Ecole Polytechnique, and the Urgel-Archambault Prize (the highest honour) in the field of Physical Sciences, Mathematics and Engineering of the French-Canadian Association for the Advancement of Science (ACFAS). He was elected IEEE Fellow in 2001. He became the first recipient of the IEEE MTT-S Outstanding Young Engineer Award in 2002 "for outstanding contributions to hybrid integration of planar and non-planar microwave and millimetre-wave circuits and the theory and practice of guided-wave structures". He was inducted Fellow of the Canadian Academy of Engineering (CAE) in 2002. In 2004, Dr. Wu received the Fessenden Medal from the IEEE Canada "for many pioneering contributions to RF, microwave and millimeter-wave theory and techniques, in particular, the invention of substrate integrated circuits (SICs) for future wireless systems". In 2005, he was inducted Fellow of The Royal Society of Canada (The Canadian Academy of the Sciences and Humanities). He has significantly contributed to the development and innovation of field theory, circuit design, radiating elements, high-frequency components, CAD techniques and high-frequency applications.Dr. Wu has made over 18 important inventions and published more than 720 technical papers in refereed journals and conference proceedings as well as a series of books or book chapters. In particular, he is the pioneer of a hybrid/monolithic integration concept of planar and non-planar structures called "substrate integrated circuits" and the joint field/circuit model for high-frequency circuit design.
