Hans G. Schantz

Hans G. Schantz is the Cofounder of Q-Track, Chairman of the Board, and Chief Scientist. Dr. Schantz coinvented NFER technology. Since 1999, Hans has been an antenna engineer responsible for the development of a variety of innovative ultra-wideband (UWB) antennas. Hans is an internationally recognized expert on electromagnetics and UWB antennas, he is the Author of The Art and Science of UWB Antennas (Artech House, 2005). Hans has published works in the American Journal of Physics, IEEE Aerospace and Electronic Systems Magazine, and IEEE Antenna and Propagation Magazine. He has a couple dozen conference papers, sixteen US patents, and nearly a dozen pending patent applications to his credit. Hans earned his Ph.D. degree in physics from the University of Texas at Austin and holds degrees in physics and industrial engineering from Purdue University.
