Benoit Derat
Editor, Signal Integrity Journal
Benoit Derat earned his engineering degree from SUPELEC in 2002, followed by a Ph.D. with honors in physics from the University of Paris XI, Orsay, in 2006. His early career at SAGEM Mobiles saw him deeply involved in antenna design and electromagnetic research. In 2009, he founded ART-Fi, where he introduced the first vector-array specific absorption rate measurement system, serving as both CEO and President. In 2017, Benoit moved to Munich to join Rohde & Schwarz, leading diverse engineering teams and driving innovation in Over-The-Air and antenna measurements, EMC, and vector network analysis.

Eager to be part of the rapidly growing field of AI and data center technology, he took on a new challenge in 2025 as Senior Director of R&D for Compute, Storage, Optical Transport and High-Speed Ethernet Test Solutions at VIAVI Solutions in Eningen, Germany. Benoit is an Edmond S. Gillepsie Fellow of the Antenna Measurement Techniques Association (AMTA) and a Distinguished Lecturer of the IEEE EMC Society (2024–2025). He has authored more than 100 scientific publications and holds over 45 patents, with his research centered on antenna systems and near- and far-field characterization techniques.
