His research interest includes antennas, mm‐wave, and THz communications and sensing systems, and beyond 5G mobile communication networks. He has published four books, over 550 research papers including over 280 journal papers, most of which are in IEEE Transactions, and he holds 26 patents.

Prof. Guo is a Fellow of the Australian Academy of Engineering and Technology, a Fellow of IEEE, and a Fellow of IET. He was a member of the College of Experts of Australian Research Council (ARC, 2016–2018). He has won a number of most prestigious Australian Engineering Excellence Awards (2007, 2012) and CSIRO Chairman’s Medal (2007, 2012). He was named one of the most influential engineers in Australia in 2014 and 2015, respectively, and one of the top researchers in Australia in 2020.

Prof. Guo has over 30 years of international academic, industrial, and government research experience. Currently, he is a Distinguished Professor and the Director of Global Big Data Technologies Centre (GBDTC) at the University of Technology Sydney (UTS), Australia. Prior to this appointment in 2014, he served as a Director in the Commonwealth Scientific Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO) for over nine years, leading the research on advanced information and wireless communication technologies. Before joining CSIRO in 2005, he held various senior technology leadership positions in Fujitsu, Siemens, and NEC in the UK

Richard W. Ziolkowski received the B.Sc. (magna cum laude) degree (Hons.) in physics from Brown University, Providence, RI, USA in 1974; the MS and PhD degrees in physics from the University of Illinois at Urbana‐Champaign, Urbana, IL, USA in 1975 and 1980, respectively; and an Honorary Doctorate degree from the Technical University of Denmark, Kongens Lyngby, Denmark in 2012.

Prof. Ziolkowski was the recipient of the 2019 IEEE Electromagnetics Award (IEEE Technical Field Award). He is a Life Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE Fellow, 1994) and a Fellow of the Optical Society of America (OSA, 2006) and the American Physical Society (APS, 2016). He served as the President of the IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society in 2005. He is also actively involved with the URSI, OSA, and SPIE professional societies. He was the Australian DSTO Fulbright Distinguished Chair in Advanced Science and Technology from 2014 to 2015. He was a 2014 Thomson‐Reuters Highly Cited Researcher.

He is currently a Distinguished Professor in the Global Big Data Technologies Centre in the Faculty of Engineering and Information Technologies (FEIT) at the University of Technology Sydney, Ultimo NSW, Australia. He became a Professor Emeritus at the University of Arizona in 2018, where he was a Litton Industries John M. Leonis Distinguished Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering in the College of Engineering and was also a Professor in the College of Optical Sciences. He was the Computational Electronics and Electromagnetics Thrust Area Leader with the Engineering Research Division of the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory before joining The University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ, USA in 1990. His current research interests include the application of new mathematical and numerical methods to linear and nonlinear problems dealing with the interaction of electromagnetic and acoustic waves with complex linear and nonlinear media, as well as metamaterials, metamaterial‐inspired structures, nanostructures, and other classical and quantum application‐specific configurations.

"Whilst 5G standards are in solid shape, the telecommunications industry faces tremendous engineering challenges in designing and deploying antennas which will not only deliver the expected 5G performance, but also can be installed in collocation with 4G antennas. It is expected that analogue antenna arrays will play a major part in enabling the cost-effective roll-out of 5G networks. Moreover, it is expected many 6G antennas will be mounted on airborne and spaceborne platforms. The nature of such space, air, and terrestrial integrated communications networks poses new challenges and demands for antennas with characteristics such as high gain, individually scannable multi-beams, immunity to interference, reconfigurability, and conformability to all platforms."-- Provided by publisher
