Guest Speaker:

Steven R. Best, Fellow of the IEEE, Member of ACES, MITRE Corporation

Steven R. Best received the B.Sc.Eng and the Ph.D. degrees in Electrical Engineering from the University of New Brunswick in 1983 and 1988, respectively. He has 20 years of experience in business management and antenna design engineering in both military and commercial markets. He is currently with the MITRE Corporation in support of a number of government programs. Prior to joining MITRE he was with the Air Force Research Laboratory where his research interests included electrically small antennas, wideband radiating elements, conformal antennas, phased arrays, communication antennas and the application of novel materials in antenna design. Prior to joining AFRL, he was with Cushcraft Corporation where he served as Director of Engineering and then President. Prior to joining Cushcraft, Dr. Best served at the executive level for both Parisi Antenna Systems and D&M/Chu Technology, Inc (formerly Chu Associates).

Dr. Best is the author or co-author of over 90 papers in various journal, conference and industry publications. He was the 2004 and 2005 recipient of the AFRL Sensors Directorate Chief Scientist Award. He has recently served as a Distinguished Lecturer for the IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society and as an Associate Editor for the IEEE Antennas and Wireless Propagation Letters. He is Jr. Past Chair of the Boston Section IEEE. He is also a frequent reviewer for several IEEE journals. Dr Best is a Fellow of the IEEE and a member of ACES.

David Vye, Technical Editor and Business Development Manager, Microwave Journal

David Vye was formerly a product-marketing manager with Ansoft Corp., responsible for high frequency circuit/system design tools and technical marketing communications. He is a 1984 graduate of the University of Massachusetts at Dartmouth, with a concentration in microwave engineering. David first joined M/A-COM’s Advanced Semiconductor Operations, developing automated test and active device characterization methods for power GaAs MESFET technology, as well as MMIC design.

In 1987, David joined Raytheon’s research division, where he was responsible for IMPATT diode transmitter development for a number of millimeter-wave applications. Between the years 1994 to 1998, he was a member of the design staff at Raytheon’s Advance Device Center. His responsibilities included circuit development (MMIC) and device modeling for AlInAs/GaInAsInP PHEMT and GaAs HBT technologies.
