Fadhel M. Ghannouchi (born 1958 in Gabes, Tunisia) is a Tunisian Canadian electrical engineer, who conducts research in radio frequency (RF) technology and wireless communications.

Education

Ghannouchi obtained his B.Sc. in 1983, from Ecole Polytechnique de Montreal in (Montreal,Canada). He completed his [M.Sc. (1984) and PhD (1987) at the University of Montreal and became a researcher at Ecole Polytechnique de Montreal. He was appointed Assistant Professor there in 1990, and Associate Professor and the director of the Ampli Lab in 1994. In 1997, he becamea Professor] in the department of Electrical Engineering and the Director of the M.Sc. in Micro-electronics program at Ecole Polytechnique de Montreal (Montreal, Canada) until 2005. In 2005, Ghannouchi joined the University of Calgary as a Professor and Research Chair at the department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, where he founded the Intelligent RF Radio Laboratory (iRadio Lab), supported by grants from the Government of Alberta (iCORE) and the Government of Canada (Canada Research Chair) and the Canada Foundation of Innovation (CFI), as well as industrial partners.[1]

Career

In 2005, he moved to the University of Calgary, as Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, holding s Tier-1 Canada Research Chair in Green Radio Systems and an Alberta Innovates Technology Futures Tier-1 strategic Chair in Intelligent Radio-Frequency (RF) Radio Technology.[2] He is the founder and director of Calgary's Intelligent RF Radio Laboratory (iRadio Lab) He also holds an Honorary Distinguished Professorship at the Ningbo University in China[3] Ghannouchi has supervised 50+ PhD and 30+ postdoctoral researchers. He has founded 3 spin-off companies with his collaborators and students: EMWorks (1995), Amplix (1998) acquired by Mitec Telecom in 2001, Green Radio Technologies (2011).[4]

Research

His research interests are microwave and RF instrumentation and measurements, nonlinear modeling of microwave devices and communications systems, design of power and spectrum efficient microwave amplification systems and design of intelligent RF transceivers and SDR radio systems for wireless and satellite communications. He has 650+ referred publications, 20 patents (10 pending) and 4 books in the area.s.[5] His work on designing energy-efficient wireless transmitters has been featured in media outlets such as CBC Radio.[6]
