Prof. Claudio Paoloni

Head of Engineering Department and Cockcroft Chair, Lancaster University, UK.

Prof Claudio Paoloni is Senior Fellow of the Higher Education Academy and author of more than 230 articles in international journals and conference proceedings in the field of high frequency electronics. He holds three patents. He is the Chair of the IEEE Electron Devices Society Vacuum Electronics Technical Committee and member of the Board of Governor of the IEEE Electron Device Society. He was in Coordinating group of the FP7 OPTHER (Optically Driven THz Amplifier) to realize the 1 THz Traveling Wave Tube amplifier. He devised the double corrugated waveguide being so far one of the most affordable solution for the realisation of TWTs and Backward wave Oscillators up to 1 THz. He is Coordinator of the Horizon 2020 project TWEETHER "Travelling wave tube based w-band wireless networks with high data rate distribution, spectrum & energy efficiency" and of the H2020 ULTRAWAVE "Ultra capacity wireless layer beyond 100 GHz based on millimeter wave Traveling Wave Tubes".
