Biography

Leo C. N. de Vreede was born in Delft, the Netherlands in 1965. He received his Ph.D. degree (cum laude) from the Delft University of Technology in 1996. In 1988, he joined the Laboratory of Telecommunication and Remote Sensing Technology of the Department of Electrical Engineering, Delft University of Technology. In 1996, he was appointed as an assistant professor at the Delft University of Technology, where he worked on the nonlinear distortion behavior of bipolar transistors at the Delft Institute of Microelectronics and Submicron Technology (DIMES). During the winter season of 1998-1999, he was a guest of the high-speed device group at the University of San Diego, California.

In 1999 and 2015, he was appointed as an associate professor and, subsequently, a full professor at the Delft University of Technology, respectively, and became responsible for the Microwave Components Group and the Electronics Research Laboratory. Since then, he has worked on RF solutions for improved linearity and RF performance at the device, circuit, and system levels. He is a co-founder/advisor of Anteverta-mw, a company specializing in RF device characterization. He is a co-recipient of the IEEE Microwave Prize in 2008, a mentor of the Else Kooi Prize awarded to Ph.D. work in 2010, and a mentor of the Dow Energy Dissertation Prize awarded to Ph.D. work in 2011. Recipient of the TUD Entrepreneurial Scientist Award 2015. He guided several students who won best paper awards at the BCTM, PRORISC, GAAS, ESSDERC, ISOCC, IMS, RFIT, RFIC, and the EUMC. He (co)authored more than 180 IEEE refereed conference and journal papers and holds over 20 patents. His current interests include Digital Transmitters, RF technology optimization, and circuit/system concepts for wireless systems.
