معرفی
Prof. Amir Boag is a Professor in the Physical Electronics Department of the School of Electrical Engineering at Tel Aviv University. He received his B.Sc. and B.A. degrees Summa Cum Laude in 1983, M.Sc. in 1985, and Ph.D. in 1991, all from the Technion - Israel Institute of Technology. His academic journey includes faculty positions at the Technion (1991-1992), a Visiting Assistant Professorship at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (1992-1994), and industry experience at Israel Aircraft Industries (1994-1999) before joining Tel Aviv University in 1999.
Prof. Boag's research focuses on computational electromagnetics and acoustics, specializing in numerically efficient algorithms, beam representations of fields, radar imaging techniques including Synthetic Aperture Radar, quantum-electromagnetic simulations, and antenna/nano-antenna design. His work bridges theoretical developments with practical applications in electromagnetic and acoustic systems.
His research group comprises over ten graduate students working on cutting-edge problems in wave physics. Prof. Boag has published more than 130 journal articles and presented over 300 conference papers. He has been instrumental in organizing the Tel Aviv University Antenna Symposium and Underwater Acoustics Symposium, with the 13th Underwater Acoustics Symposium scheduled for October 23, 2025.
- IEEE Fellow (2008) for contributions to integral equation based analysis, design, and imaging techniques
- Fellow of the Electromagnetics Academy
- Former Associate Editor for IEEE Transactions on Antennas and Propagation
- Holder of approximately ten patents in electromagnetics and antenna design
Prof. Boag's research demonstrates strong continuity in developing efficient numerical methods for electromagnetic and acoustic problems, with increasing focus on quantum-electromagnetic interactions and nano-scale applications in recent years. His work maintains strong connections between fundamental theory and practical engineering applications, particularly in radar and imaging systems.
