Etienne Perret received the Eng. Dipl. degree in electrical engineering from the ENSEEIHT, Toulouse, France, 2002, and the M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering from the Toulouse Institute of Technology, Toulouse, in 2002 and 2005, respectively. He was appointed Associate Professor in 2006 and Full Professor in 2022 of electrical engineering at Univ. Grenoble Alpes, Grenoble INP, France. He has authored or co-authored more than 250 technical conferences, letters and journal papers, and books and book chapters. His works have generated more than 4700 citations. His current research interests include wireless communication systems based on the principle of backscatter modulation or backscattering of EM waves especially in the field of RFID and chipless RFID for identification and sensors. His research interests also include electromagnetic modeling of passive devices for millimeter and submillimeter-wave applications, and advanced computer-aided design techniques based on the development of an automated codesign synthesis computational approach. He was a recipient of several awards like the MIT Technology Review’s French Innovator’s under 35 in 2013, the French Innovative Techniques for the Environment Award in 2013, the SEE/IEEE Leon Brillouin Award for his outstanding achievement in the identification of an object in an unknown environment using a chipless label or tag in 2016, the IEEE MTT-S 2019 Outstanding Young Engineer Award, the Prix Espoir IMT – Académie des sciences in 2020 and the Grand Prix de l’Electronique Général Ferrié in 2021. Etienne Perret was awarded an ERC Consolidator Grant in 2017 for his project ScattererID.
