The IEEE Fellow grade is used to recognize
unusual distinction in the profession. Each year, a new class of IEEE Fellow
awardees is conferred by the IEEE Board of Directors. The number of new IEEE
Fellows each year is limited to 1/10 of 1% of the IEEE voting membership.
The IEEE Vehicular Technology Society Fellow
Evaluation Committee evaluates nominations for IEEE Fellow. The Vehicular
Technology Society receives such nominations in portable and mobile
communications, automotive electronics, and land transportation. Accordingly, the VTS Fellow Evaluation
Committee may change each year depending on the mixture of nominations received
in each of the three technical areas.
