Welcome to the Institute of High-Frequency Technology

On our website you will find insights into our diverse research projects, as well as information about our staff, courses, publications, and the latest news from our institute.

Together with our project partners, we conduct research on innovative topics such as non-contact vital signs measurement using radar for medical, veterinary and industrial applications. Other projects focus on ultra-low power communication networks, permittivity measurements and quantum computing research.

A distinctive feature of our institute is our combination of theoretical and experimental work. We employ advanced simulation techniques, manufacturing processes, precision measurement technology, as well as signal processing and machine learning for data analysis. Thanks to our in-house PCB manufacturing, precision mechanics workshop, and various 3D printers, we can rapidly implement theoretical concepts and test them in our antenna measurement chamber or on our linear stage.

Feel free to contact us directly to learn more about our work.

Caspar Wasle wurde als Teilnehmer des International Space Weather Camps (ISWC) ausgewählt. Dieses vom DLR Neustrelitz, der South African National Space Agency (SANSA) und der University of Alabama in Huntsville organisierte Camp bietet Studenten und Absolventen von Studienfächern der Mathematik, Physik, Informatik und Ingenieurswissenschaften die Möglichkeit, sich intensiv mit dem spannenden und hochaktuellen Thema Weltraumwetter zu beschäftigen. Caspar Wasle hat sich zuvor als Wissenschaftliche Hilfskraft und im Rahmen seiner Bachelorarbeit am Institut im Bereich der Satellitenkommunikation (SANTANA-Aero 2) als äußerst engagierter Student hervorgetan. Wir haben Ihn sehr gerne bei seiner Bewerbung für einen Platz beim ISWC unterstützt und freuen uns, dass wir ihm nun zur Annahme gratulieren können. Im Namen des ganzen Instituts wünschen wir Caspar viel Spaß während der drei sicherlich sehr interessanten und lehrreichen Wochen.

During the week of 10th to 14th of February, 56 students and 20 teachers from Norway, Denmark, Latvia, Poland, Germany, the Netherlands, Spain, Turkey and Brazil work in groups on real projects. After this week, they go back home and will continue to work together, via online colloberations. The event was organised by us to let all teachers and students meet together to discuss projects as a part of EPIC project.

We are glad to inform you that we were the winners of Science Slam held at the 2nd Digital Science Night organised by NoLs on the 23rd of January, 2020. We presented the machine learning concept of supervised learning under the title of Dance Dance Machine Learning Revolution. In contrast to a traditional Science Slam, we presented supervised learning through music and dance, as a team effort. Our team consisted of members from the Institute of Communication Networks, the Institute of Technical Education and University Didactics, together with bachelor and masters students, collectively representing the Hamburg University of Technology.
