Dine and Learn! - IEEE EMC and APS/MTT Joint Event featuring Distinguished Lecturer Dr. Benoit Derat
Presented by: Dr. Benoit Derat; Senior Director for Systems Developments and Project Implementations, Rohde & Schwarz, Munich
Come join us for a Dine and Learn event co-hosted by Denver's EMC and APS/MTT Chapters as well as Denver Section Dine & Learn Committee! You're invited to sit in on Distinguished Lecturer Dr. Benoit Derat's presentation on creating an antenna's digital twin. In his talk, he'll show us how to combine accurate real-life applications with versatile simulations to augment OTA measurements.
We will provide the appetizers and a round of drinks, but dinner is at your own expense. Dinner for students is free.
Interact your fellow IEEE members and local engineers for a fun filled evening of appetizers, networking, and dinner, while we discover exciting new innovations in technology. Once a month one of your local Denver IEEE Societies will host the event and bring in a unique speaker related to their field to present. This provides you, our members, with a unique opportunity to explore and learn about exciting new technologies being developed around you. Early on in the evening you’ll also have ample opportunity to mingle with your fellow engineers and colleagues delving into a broad range of technical expertise.
If there is a specific speaker or topic you find interesting please let us know and we will try to accommodate it in the schedule.

The Antenna Digital Twin - When Measurements and Simulations Unite
Antenna or OTA measurements are blind. Knowing the detailed implementation of the device under test is not needed to realize them. They even include all production tolerances that might impact performance. However, measurements are limited to canonical test environments, e.g. in anechoic chambers. Simulations, on the contrary, can give access to electromagnetic fields in practically any scenario. Yet, simulations are only as good as the knowledge of the very details of the radiation source. What if one could unite the two and benefit from the combined strengths of experimental and numerical techniques? This talk shows how to enable this with the augmented OTA approach, involving the creation of an antenna digital twin, based on actual measured data. Practical applications are demonstrated, including field characterization inside the car and EMF assessments with virtual human models.
Biography:
Dr. Benoit Derat; Senior Director for Systems Developments and Project Implementations, Rohde & Schwarz, Munich
Benoit Derat received the Engineering degree from SUPELEC, in 2002, and the Ph.D. degree (Hons.) in physics from the University of Paris XI, in 2006. From 2002 to 2008, he worked at SAGEM Mobiles, as an Antenna Design and Electromagnetics Research Engineer. In 2009, he founded ART-Fi, which created the first vector-array specific absorption rate measurement system. He operated as the CEO and the President of ART-Fi, before joining Rohde & Schwarz, Munich, in 2017. He is currently the Senior Director of Engineering for Vector Network Analyzers, Electromagnetic Compatibility, Over-The-Air and Antenna Test applications. Dr. Derat is a Senior Member of the Antenna Measurement Techniques Association (AMTA) and a Distinguished Lecturer of the IEEE EMC Society (2024 – 2025). He is the author of more than 80 scientific journals and conference papers, and an inventor on more than 40 patents, with main focus in antenna systems near and far-field characterization techniques.
