Ulrich Rohde, N1UL, has been honored with the 2016 Microwave Application Award by the IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society. He was credited with “Significant contributions to the development of low-noise oscillators.” The Microwave Application Award recognizes an individual, or a team, for an outstanding application of microwave theory and techniques that have been put into practice within the past decade.

Rohde will receive the award at the annual IEEE MTT-S International Microwave Symposium Awards banquet this May in San Francisco.

In 2015 Rohde was named by the IEEE to receive the prestigious I. I. Rabi Award, recognizing outstanding contributions related to the fields of atomic and molecular frequency standards, and time transfer and dissemination. Rohde is the author of some 200 scientific papers and books, and has written articles for QST and QEX.
