Meet the Team

Dr. Erricolo joined Roberson and Associates in 2018. He is also a Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, an adjunct Professor of Biomedical Engineering, and the Director of the Andrew Electromagnetics Laboratory at the University of Illinois Chicago.

His research focuses on electromagnetics applied to solve problems including modeling electromagnetic wave propagation for wireless communications and radar systems; antenna design and related RF front-end, in particular for full-duplex communication systems; detection of underground tunnels; and reducing temperature raise in ultra-high field Magnetic Resonance Imaging.

Dr. Erricolo has authored or coauthored more than 340 publications including refereed journals, international conferences, and book chapters. He has an extensive record of service for the U.S. National Committee (USNC) of the International Union of Radio Science (URSI), a committee of the US National Academies, and for the institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). In particular, he served as Chair (2009-2011), Vice Chair (2006-2008) and Secretary (2004-2005) of the USNC-URSI Commission E on Electromagnetic Environment and Interference. He was Chair of the USNC-URSI Ernest K. Smith Student Paper Competition (2009-2014); Vice-Chair of the Local Organizing Committee of the XXIX URSI General Assembly, held in Chicago, IL, USA in August 2008; and the General Chairman of the 2012 IEEE International Symposium on Antennas and Propagation and USNC-URSI National Radio Science Meeting, held in Chicago, IL, USA in July 2012. He was an Elected Member of the IEEE AP-S Administrative Committee (2012-2014); Chair of the IEEE AP-S Distinguished Lecturer Program (2015-2016); and Chair of the Chicago Joint Chapter of the IEEE AP-S and Microwave Theory and Techniques Society (2011-2016). He has served on more than 50 conference technical program committees, chaired over 70 conference sessions and organized more than 30 special sessions at international scientific conferences. He was the Editor-in-Chief of the IEEE Transactions on Antennas and Propagation between August 2016 and September 2022.

Dr. Erricolo is a Fellow of IEEE, AAIA, The Electromagnetics Academy, AIIA, a University of Illinois Scholar, and the recipient of the 2023 USNC-URSI Impact Award. He has been Vice President of Conferences of the IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society since January 2023.

He received the Laurea degree of Doctor (summa cum laude) in electronics engineering from the Politecnico di Milano, Milan, Italy, in 1993 and the Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering and computer science from the University of Illinois at Chicago, Chicago, Illinois, USA, in 1998.
