Institute of Microwave Engineering

Welcome to the Institute of Microwave Engineering

The Institute of Microwave Engineering is an Institute in the faculty of engineering science, computer science and psychology at Ulm University. We cover diverse topics associated with high-frequency engineering. This includes: Radar sensor technology for autonomous driving, unmanned aerial vehicles, bio sensors, satellite communication, and a lot of more topics! We want to give an insight into our daily research and our research topics with our new introduction video (in German language). Additional research topics are presented on our topics page on this website.

Christian Waldschmidt, Christina Bonfert, Timo Grebner This book provides a concise introduction to modern millimeter-wave radar sensors. It covers both the physical fundamentals and key aspects of hardware design and signal processing, with applications in autonomous driving, robotics, and industrial automation.
