Tayeb A. Denidni received an M.Sc. and a Ph.D. in electrical engineering from Laval University, Quebec City, QC, Canada, in 1990 and 1994, respectively. From 1994 to 2000, he was a professor with the engineering department at Universite du Quebec in Rimouski (UQAR), Rimouski, QC, Canada, where he founded the Telecommunications Laboratory. Since August 2000, he has been with the National Institute of Scientific Research (INRS), Montreal, QC, Canada. He founded the RF Laboratory at the Energy, Materials and Telecommunications (EMT) Center of INRS. He is leading one of the best research groups in antenna engineering with two research scientists, six Ph.D. students, and one MSc student. He served as a principal investigator on many research projects sponsored by the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council (NSERC), the Canada Foundation for Innovation (FCI), and various other industries. His current research areas of interest include reconfigurable antennas using EBG and FSS structures, dielectric resonator antennas, metamaterial-based antennas, adaptive arrays, switched multibeam antenna arrays, ultrawideband antennas, and microwave and development for wireless communications systems. He has authored or coauthored more than 150 papers in peer-reviewed journals and more than 200 papers in conference proceedings on these topics. He has supervised more than 60 graduate students and researchers. Dr. Denidni is a Senior Member of IEEE. He served as an associate editor for many prestigious journals in antenna engineering, including IEEE Transactions on Antennas and Propagation from 2008 to 2010 and IEEE Antennas and Wireless Propagation Letters from 2005 to 2007. In 2012 and 2013, INRS awarded him the Outstanding Teaching and Achievement award. He served as a publicity chair for the IEEE Vehicular Technology Conference, Montreal, Sept. 2006. He served as an exhibition chair for ANTEM conference, Montreal, July 2006. He also serves as a reviewer for various journals: IEEE Trans. Ant. and Prop., IEEE Ant. and Wireless Prop. Let., IEEE MTT, IET Electronics Letters, and IET Microwave, Antennas and Propagation Proceedings. He is a member of the Scientific Committee of Centre de Recherche en Electronique Radiofrequence (CREER), and a member of the Scientific Committee of The research laboratory Telebec in Underground Communications. Dr. Denidni has significantly contributed to the curriculum renewal at the engineering department at the University of Quebec and the telecommunications center at INRS.
