List of fellows of IEEE Broadcast Technology Society
 | This article relies largely or entirely on a single source. (July 2020) |
The Fellow grade of membership is the highest level of membership, and cannot be applied for directly by the member – instead the candidate must be nominated by others. This grade of membership is conferred by the IEEE Board of Directors in recognition of a high level of demonstrated extraordinary accomplishment.[1]
