Call for Papers: A Tribute Session for Prof. Ruediger Vahldieck

A special session to memorise Prof. Ruediger Vahldieck for his devotions and contributions.

Prof. Rueiger Vahldieck of Zurich, Switzerland, passed wasy on 21 March 2011 at age 59 after a long and valiant fight with brain cancer. He leaves behind his wife Zorka and his daughter Masha, who were at his bedside. Rudiger was born in Heiligenhafen, Germany, on 8 July 1951. He received the Dipl.-Ing. and Dr.-Ing. degrees, both in Electrical Engineering, from the University of Bremen, Germany, in 1980 and 1983 respectively. He accepted the position of Professor of Field Theory at the Eidgenossische Technische Hochschule (ETH) Zurich (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology), first as Leader of the Field Theory Group and subsequently, in 2003, as Head of the Department of Field Theory and Microwave Electronics (IFH). In 2005, he became President of the Research Foundation for Mobile Communications and was elected Head of the Department of Information Technology and Electrical Engineering (D-ITET) of ETH Zurich.

Prof. Vahldieck has been the President and General Chairman of the International Zurich Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC Zurich) from 2003 to 2009, and was General Chair of the 2006 and 2008 APEMC/EMC Zurich in Singapore and 2007 EMC Zurich in Munich. He tirelessly served the IEEE in key leadership roles, notably as a reviewer of several IEEE journals, Associate Editor and Editor-in-Chief of the IEEE Microwave and Wireless Components Letters (2004-2006), Member of the MTT-15 Technical Committee on Field Theory, Chair of IMS TPSC Committee 3, and Chair of the Swiss Joint IEEE MTT, AP, and EMC Societies Chapter. He has been a member of IEEE since 1985, became a Fellow in 1999, and received several outstanding publication awards.

Rudiger was a passionate sailor and spent whatever time he could find, on his sailboat with his family and friends. He now has departed on his final voyage, leaving behind his lvoed ones, friends, students, research associates and colleagues to remember him fondly.

You are invited to submit a paper for this Tribute Session that will be held at the 2012 Asia-Pacific EMC Week. The paper must be in English, not exceeding four pages including title, authors affiliation, abstract, figures, tables and references.

Prospective authors can send your papers via email to:
