In 1975 the IEEE Communications Society created the William R. Bennett Prize in the field of communications networking to honor  William R. Bennett. He was a physicist known for his pioneering work on gas lasers. He was co-inventor of the first gas laser (the helium-neon laser).

The IEEE Communications Society William R. Bennett Prize is given annually to the best original paper, in the category of Communications Networking, published in any journal financially sponsored or co-sponsored by the IEEE Communications Society in the previous 3 calendar years. Nominations are screened and reduced to a short list by a committee of the Editorial Board and submitted to the IEEE Communications Society Awards Committee for final selection.
