ieee fellow About the Grade: IEEE Fellow is a distinction conferred by the Board of Directors upon select IEEE members whose extraordinary accomplishments in any of the IEEE fields of interest are deemed fitting of this prestigious grade elevation. The total number selected in any one year does not exceed one-tenth of one percent of the total voting Institute membership. Each new Fellow receives a beautifully matted and framed certificate with the name of the Fellow and a brief citation describing the accomplishment, a congratulatory letter from the incoming IEEE president, and a gold sterling silver Fellow lapel pin with an antique finish. i&m society ieee fellows 2025 2024 2023 2022 2019 2018 2017 2016 2015 2014 2013 2012 2011 2010 2009 2008 Daniele Fontanelli for contributions to measurement and real-time estimation algorithms in robotics Dean Jarrett for contributions to high resistance metrology and measurement standards and techniques Elevated by other Societies Hiroshi Harada for technical leadership and contributions in wireless smart utility networks and software-defined cognitive radio Maokun Li for contributions to nonlinear inversion algorithms for subsurface imaging Alessandra Flammini for contributions to wireless distributed measurements for industrial systems Massood Zandi Atashbar for contributions to flexible hybrid electronics Zhigang Liu for contributions to fault detection and protection in high-speed railway power systems Lijun Xu for contributions to multiphase flow measurement and combustion process monitoring Elevated by other Societies Yihong Qi (EMC) for contributions to over-the-air testing of massive MIMO systems and development of over-the-air measurement systems Shilong Pan (MTT) for contributions to high-performance microwave-photonic imaging radar Paul C.-p.
