Antennas and propagation
The antennas and propagation group is part of the Department of Electronics and Nanoengineering, Aalto University. The group covers a broad range of research topics in radio frequency design, measurements and modelling. In particular, the group focuses on antenna measurement and evaluation techniques, multiple-element antenna arrays including massive MIMO, radio frequency measurements for radar objects and cellular mobile scenarios, and study and demonstion of antenna effects on radio link performance for novel applications such as beyond-5G and medical scenarios. We have access to diverse radio frequency measurement facilities including anechoic chambers for characterising antennas, millimetre-wave channel sounders and real-time waveform devices such as wideband universal software defined radio peripherals. The group is located in the TUAS-building.
