Latest news: Prof Ming Yu was will receive the 2020 Microwave Application Award of the IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society (MTT-S). This award recognizes an individual for a career of meritorious achievement and outstanding technical contribution in the field of microwave theory and techniques. Read more. Thanks COM DEV and this University for the support.
Prof
Ming Yu received the Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering from the University
of Victoria, Victoria, BC, Canada, in 1995. In 1993, he joined COM DEV, Cambridge, ON, Canada, as a Member of Technical
Staff, while working on his thesis part time. He was involved in designing
passive microwave/RF hardware for both space and ground-based applications. He
was a Principal Developer of a variety of company core design and tuning
software for microwave filters and multiplexers, including computer-aided
tuning software in 1994 and fully automated robotic diplexer tuning system in
1999. He was a Manager of Filter/Multiplexer Technology (Space Group) and a
Staff Scientist of Corporate Research and Development. Until 2016, he was the
Chief Scientist and the Director of Research and Development. He is responsible
for overseeing the development of company research and development roadmap and
next generation products and technologies, including high-frequency and
high-power engineering, electromagnetic-based CAD and tuning for complex and
large problems, and novel miniaturization techniques for microwave networks. He
became an adjunct associate professor at Waterloo in 2002. Since then he has
been successfully won consecutive NSERC discovery grants. He is an Adjunct
Professor.
Since COM DEV was acquired
by Honeywell in 2016, he has led the Advanced Technology Group, Cambridge, as
the Chief Scientist and a senior Engineering Fellow. He holds 30 patents. He
has authored or co-authored over 150 publications and numerous proprietary
reports. He was later promoted to Senior Engineering Fellow.
Prof Yu is an IEEE Fellow
and a Fellow of the Canadian Academy of Engineering. He was a recipient of the
1995 and 2006 COM DEV Achievement Award for the development of computer-aided
tuning algorithms and systems for microwave filters and multiplexers. He was an
IEEE Distinguished Microwave Lecturer from 2010 to 2012. He is now a member of
speakers bureau. He served an IEEE MTT Filter Committee Chair (MTT-8) and Chair
of TPC-11. He was an Associate Editor of the IEEE TRANSACTIONS ONMICROWAVE
THEORY AND TECHNIQUES.
