Author Information

About the Editors Amir Mortazawi is an associate professor in the Electrical Engineering Department at the University of Central Florida, Orlando. His research interests include millimeter--wave power combining oscillators and amplifiers; quasi--optical techniques; and nonlinear analysis of microwave circuits. Tatsuo Itoh is director of Joint Services Electronics Program (JSEP) and is also director of Multidisciplinary University Research Initiative (MURI) program at the University of California, Los Angeles. He was an honorary visiting professor at both the Nanjin Institute of Technology, China, and the Japan Defense Academy. In 1994, Dr. Itoh was appointed as adjunct research officer for Communications Research Laboratory, Ministry of Post and Telecommunication, Japan. He currently holds a visiting professorship at the University of Leeds, UK, and is an external examiner of the graduate program of the City University of Hong Kong Dr. Itoh is a fellow of the IEEE, a member of the Institute of Electronics and Communication Engineers of Japan, and Commissions B and D of USNC/URSI. In 1994 he was elected as an honorary life member of the MTT Society. James Harvey is a research program manager at the US Army Research Office with primary responsibilities in the fields of electromagnetics, antennas and antenna structures, millimeter--wave circuit integration, low power/minimum power system design, and mine detection. His programs include a focus on small, multifrequency, multifunctional antennas for US Army vehicles, radio propagation over complex terrain affecting data communications, and new millimeter--wave circuit integration techniques, such as spatial power combining and micromachining.
