Résumé of

Stephen E. Lipsky, Ph. D.

A scientific and forensic expert in communications, Dr. Lipsky is a Fellow of the IEEE, author of a landmark text on communications, and former Chief Technical Officer of AEL Industries Inc.

As Chief Technical Officer and Sr. VP of AEL Industries, he was the responsible corporate officer for technical performance and compliance of all company activities. His responsibilities for research and development activities culminated in his formation of an Advanced Technology Group that successfully developed microwave stripline delay lines, fiberoptic memories, superconductive antennas and a unique fast-tuning HF antenna coupler. This latter device featured microsecond tuning of a digitally controlled matching network, with application to a superconducting system.

Prior to 1990 as Vice President for Engineering, Dr. Lipsky was responsible for P&L, delivery and technical performance, of a $50 million engineering and manufacturing matrix skill organization that bid, designed, developed and manufactured military and industrial equipment, encompassing a full range of technologies. Typical programs were the AN/ALR 67 and APR 39 Radar Warning Receivers, the TLQ/15 HF SSB receiver/jammer, the MLQ-T4 Ground Jammer ($26M), the AF ASET system ($7M), the Army Piranha VHF jammer ($10M), and the ALT-40 500 watt CW I/J band transmitter. His group was responsible for the next generation Army VHF/UHF TACJAM-A ECM system. Dr. Lipsky has done much work in miniature pod mounted antennas and matching networks for the low band (VHF) Navy ALQ/99 jammers.

Prior to joining AEL in 1979, Dr. Lipsky was Director of Advanced Systems Engineering of the Government Systems Division of the General Instrument Corporation, where he was responsible for the design and program management of new electronic warfare RF and DF systems for almost ten years. His specialty was microwave and HF receivers such as the AN/ALR 66 and R-1910.

From 1963 to 1970, Dr. Lipsky was Corporate Vice President of Polarad Electronics Corporation, where he led the design of most of the countermeasures equipment developed and produced by the Radiometrics Division. As Vice President of Engineering, he proposed and developed the ALPHA millimeter-wave Elint intercept receiver for the Air Force and VHF electronic-scan frequency converters for the Navy ALQ-86 Systems. He developed the Army URM-103 FM signal generator, a high-stability low phase noise solid-state oscillator, for the VHF band.

From 1958 to 1963, Dr. Lipsky was employed by Loral Electronics Corporation as Manager of the Passive Detection Division where he was responsible for the development of the AN/ALQ-53 and AN/ALQ-78 ESM programs.

Dr. Lipsky is a Fellow of the IEEE, and Associate of the (British) IEE, and Charter Member of the Association of Old Crows where he received their 1992 Gold Certificate with the Citation: "For meritorious professional achievement in contributing to the defense and security of the free world." He is a member of the AP, MTT, Aerospace, Lightwave, and Communications IEEE Professional Groups and is a member of AFCEA, the Army and Air Force Associations and the Navy League. He holds FCC first class commercial and advanced class amateur radio licenses.

Holder of 11 patents, and publisher of several books and numerous professional papers, Dr. Lipsky is listed in Who's Who in America.
