Wireless technologies

The Institute's Wireless Technologies cluster is made up of two subgroups

• Microwaves and antenna engineering research group
• Signal processing for communications research group

Microwaves and antenna engineering

The Microwaves and Antenna Engineering Group at Heriot-Watt University is a global research leader in microwave and antennas for physical-layer wireless systems.

The group is a research unit of international excellence fostering industrially-driven world-class research excellence and skill development to accelerate the adoption of advanced radio frequency front end solutions in emerging wireless systems and applications.

Signal processing for communications

The Signal Processing for Communications Group focus on signal processing and machine learning as generic fields and develop tools for the analysis, modelling, estimation and preparation of signals, finding applications in every area of science and technology. We particularly focus on transforming communication and radar technology, influencing various social and economic factors by providing mobile internet access anywhere and anytime.
