Cooperation
The Department of Electronic Systems performs research, teaching and dissemination of knowledge within electronics and ICT (Information and Communication Technology). We engage in research within a wide range of disciplines, taking as our point of departure the question of how technology can be optimized, adapted to other fields or developed into new products. We collaborate closely with industry, meaning that many of our projects are based on ideas and visions from our industrial partners.
Potential subject areas of collaboration
Collaborating with us will give companies and organizations access to the latest research and our many competences within electronics and ICT. The research is organized in nine sections:
- Acoustics focuses on acoustics, sound and hearing in a broad sense, e.g. in relation to the sound recording, reproduction and processing and also the measurement and quantification of sound, including how it affects us and our ears in different ways.
- Antennas, Propagation and Radio Networking (APNet) conducts research in antennas, propagation transceiver solutions and networking concepts within emerging radio communication systems.
- Automation and Control focuses on mathematical and computational techniques for the modeling, estimation, monitoring and control of systems and processes.
- CTIF Section performs research in the convergence of networks, technologies, services and applications.
- Multimedia Information and Signal Processing (MISP) conducts research and teaching in multimedia technologies, primarily sounds, speech, language, video, images and the sciences that support them. The section also focuses on design and evaluation of multi modal user interfaces.
- Navigation and Communications (NavCom) conducts research in algorithm design for wireless communication systems, satellite and terrestrial radio positioning, tracking and navigation and signal processing for radar.
- Networking and Security (NetSec) focuses on wired and wireless network technologies, future Internet, IP networks, reliable and secure communication and network planning.
- Radio Access Technology (RATE) performs research in cutting-edge technologies for wireless networks, including cross-layer optimizations to improve system spectral efficiency and end user performance.
- Technology Platforms (TPS) focuses on advanced signal processing platforms for the handling of physical signals, compressive sensing, RF circuit and system design, hardware/software co-design, design methodologies for low power consumption and scientific computing.
