Traditional design methodology for electronic engineering has been quite different from that for microwave engineering. In the past, electronic engineers usually dealt with electronics below 1 GHz, while microwave engineers worked in the frequency range of above 1 GHz. However, this traditional approach of two separated disciplines in both education and research is meeting ever-growing challenges. This is due to the fact that current and future communication technologies utilize frequency spectrums above 1 GHz. Moreover, today's microprocessor can already have an on-chip clock frequency of 2 GHz and above. In other words, the digital electronics is entering into the microwave spectrum as well. Obviously, this evolution in electronics development imposes new demands on university education and research as well as industrial development. The traditional approaches for electronic engineering and microwave engineering must meet each other towards a unified methodology in both design and product development.
Future electronics is facing a dilemma: on one hand, traditional techniques using lumped element models and printed circuit boards have difficulties to handle GHz electronics, on the other hand, the traditional technique used for microwave engineering appears to be too costly for consumer products of communications and other high speed electronics.
To work out a design methodology for merging of electronic engineering and microwave engineering. To be world-leading in the areas of system-in-a-package (SIP) and modular solutions for wireless communicatios and networking
2009-08-06 The Sony Ericsson IPR department has reviewed and wanted to go further with a new patent idea that has been developed from our cooperation project with the company.
2009-03-23 Please meet us at Domkyrkan in Linköping on 31st March at 13:15 to witness the wireless sensor network specially developed for cultural biuldings. The project has been finantially supported by Swedish Energimyndigheten.
2009-03-03 Allan Huynh has been nominated by IN-TECH in Austria to write a book chapter based on his published paper "Mixed-Mode S-Parameter Conversion for Networks with Coupled Differential Signals" in a new book on "Microwave and Millimeter Wave Technologies". Congratulations!
2008-11-03 Joakim Östh has joined us as a Ph.D. student in the group. Welcome!
2008-10-15 Jingcheng Zhang has joined us as a Ph.D. student in the group. Welcome!
2008-08-20 Owais has been nominated to the best paper award for the paper "Circular Monopole Antenna Stability with Regard to Ground Plane Size" submitted to the 2008 International Symposium on Antenna and Propagation (ISAP'08). ISAP 2008 will be held at the Taipei International Convention Center from October 27 to 30, 2008.
2008-08-01 We have received 3 Million SEK from SonyEricsson and Vinnova to participate in the Swedish strategic "Telecom Branch Program". The project will last two and half years.
