Future applications, such as real-time wireless control of autonomous vehicles and collaborating machines (Industry 4.0), will introduce new requirements on the reliability and on-time delivery of transmitted data. Sustainable smart cities and the digitalisation of society depend on advanced connected systems, creating many career opportunities for you as a graduate.
Innovation in wireless communications has a long tradition in Lund, including the invention of Bluetooth. The department designed the first fully digital massive MIMO testbed, a technology that has now become a key component of 5G networks. Recently, researchers also developed the first channel sounder for millimeter-wave massive MIMO, further solidifying Lund’s position at the forefront of wireless communication research.
The programme is designed to give you a high-level international education. Focusing on the physical and lower layers of wireless systems, you will gain in-depth system knowledge, and insights into the various components that make up a wireless network.
