Professor Per-Simon Kildal, the founder of Bluetest AB, unexpectedly passed away last week. We at Bluetest are sending our thoughts to his family during this burdensome time.

Professor Kildal founded Bluetest in 2000 with at that time a completely new idea on how to test small antennas in a reverberation chamber. He was during the early years as part-time CEO of Bluetest the driving force for the reverberation chamber to become an accepted method to test wireless devices and antennas. In 2006 Professor Kildal left the active role as CEO. He stayed on as Chairman of the Board until 2013. Based on his idea, Bluetest has been steadily growing to become a leading global player in the OTA test industry.
