IEEE天线与传播学会今天宣布,授予 张跃平和刘兑现2020 年克劳斯天线奖(John D. Kraus Antenna Award),以表彰他们对封装天线技术(Antenna-in-Package (AiP) Technology)所做出的开创性贡献,以及封装天线技术对无线通信、雷达、虚拟与增强现实、物联网等应用的革命性影响。
IEEE天线与传播学会同时宣布,颁奖仪式将于2020 年7 月5至7月10 日在加拿大蒙特利尔召开的IEEE天线与传播学会年度大会期间举行。因受疫情影响,今年大会及颁奖仪式将以虚拟方式进行。
张跃平,无线电电子学家,新加坡南洋理工大学教授;刘兑现是美国IBM Thomas J. Watson研究中心研究员与杰出发明家。张跃平与刘兑现也曾于2012年荣获IEEE天线与传播汇刊谢昆诺夫论文奖(IEEE Transactions on Antennas and Propagation Sergi A. Schelkunoff Transactions Prize Paper Award)。这使得他们两人与加州大学洛杉矶分校Yahya Rahmat-Samii教授,成为目前世界上即获得过克劳斯天线奖也获得过谢昆诺夫论文奖的三位人士!Yahya Rahmat-Samii教授是美国工程院院士,去年当选为中国工程院外籍院士。
获奖者的提名人是IEEE天线与传播学会主刊前主编、IEEE Fellow、香港城市大学梁国华讲座教授。
获奖者得到了四位国际著名天线专家的全力推荐。以姓氏英文首字母排序,他们是IEEE天线与传播学会2009年度会长、IEEE Fellow、日本东京工业大学名誉教授安虅 真(Makoto Ando);IEEE天线与传播学会2013年度会长、IEEE Fellow、澳大利亚悉尼科技大学杰出客座教授特雷弗·伯德 (Trever S. Bird); IEEE天线与传播学会前评奖委员会主席、IEEE Fellow 克里斯托斯·克里斯托杜洛教授 (Christos Christodoulou);中国华为公司终端天线首席专家、Huawei Fellow 王汉阳博士。
克劳斯天线奖
克劳斯天线奖(John D. Kraus Antenna Award)由John D. Kraus于2004年通过IEEE天线与传播学会设立,旨在表彰在天线技术上作出重要贡献的个人或团队。克劳斯天线奖是天线界最负盛名、最崇高的一个奖项。每一年的克劳斯天线奖会在IEEE天线与传播学会年度颁奖仪式上颁发,从2004 年至2020 年共有25 名科学家获此殊荣。

天线大师:克劳斯
约翰·丹尼尔·克劳斯(John Daniel Kraus),1910 年6 月28 日生于密歇根州安阿伯 (Ann Arbor, Michigan),2004 年7 月18 日逝世于俄亥俄州特拉华(Delaware, Ohio),享年94岁。
克劳斯于1933年(23岁)从密歇根大学获得物理学博士学位。毕业后,克劳斯在密歇根大学从事核物理学研究。二战期间,克劳斯在哈佛大学为美国海军从事雷达对策研究工作。二战后,克劳斯加入了俄亥俄州立大学,后来成为该校无线电天文台的负责人和麦克杜格尔(McDougal)电气工程与天文学教授。
克劳斯发明了螺旋形天线、角反射器天线、栅格天线和其他几种类型的天线。克劳斯是1985年度IEEE爱迪生奖章(IEEE Edison Medal) 与1990年度IEEE海因里希·赫兹奖章(IEEE Heinrich Hertz Medal)获得者。
克劳斯有关天线的书籍被许多天线人称之为天线圣经。克劳斯这个名字,开启了许多天线人的梦想,他是一位名副其实的天线大师。
