Biography

Simon Svendsen received his M.Sc.E.E. degree from Aalborg University, in 1995. He has been working in the mobile industry since then. His career started at Bang & Olufsen Telecom, where his first task was to design antennas for DECT phones and verify the RF performance of the Front End. He has since worked for Maxon, Siemens, Motorola, and Molex doing mostly cellular antenna design for mobile phones including MCAD design, EM simulations, rapid prototyping and measurement. He joined Intel in January 2013, and was primarily working with cellular antenna designs for internal reference platforms and for customers. However, his focus in the last years at Intel shifted towards mmWave antenna design, and the RF FE architecture. He has been employed at Nokia since November 2018 and is working with standardization research for 3GPP 5G and 6G with focus on handheld devices. He has 50+ patents within the scope of antenna designs and 100+ patents within 3PGG standardization.
