Education

Signals and Systems (Avd. för signaler och system) is a division within the Department of Engineering Sciences at Uppsala University.

Welcome to take a closer look at our activities.
 

Undergraduate Education

We are responsible for about 20 undergraduate courses, which span most of Electrical Engineering.

Graduate Education

In our PhD program, we offer graduate education within Signal Processing, Microwave Technology and Automatic Control.

Research

(Presentation in Swedish)

The division conducts research on

  • signal processing
  • telecommunications
  • non-destructive evaluation of materials
  • artificial neural networks
  • microwave technology and
  • automatic control.
The research is both theoretical and experimental. Interaction with industry constitutes an integral part of most projects.

The research on signal processing and telecommunications has a main focus on applications in mobile radio communications. Examples include

In the area of non-destructive evaluation of materials, our research is focused on digital processing of the information acquired during ultrasonic and eddy current inspection of materials. An important area is development of ultrasonic array technology for material inspection and techniques for ultrasonic defect characterization of bonded structures as well as composite materials. Another area includes methods for attenuation of material noise disturbing ultrasonic inspection.

The research on microwave circuits, devices and antennas is focused on the operating capabilities of silicon-based active devices. In this area, we have developed physics-based large-signal models for silicon/silicongermanium HBTs and millimeter wave frequency multipliers.
