RF & Microwave Lab

Overview

The RF & Microwave research uniquely offers academic training and research expertise in RF & Microwave engineering ranging from microwave passive and active devices to Metamaterial devices. Major group objectives include Encouraging scientific exchanges among academia and industry within the field of RF, Microwave & providing research support and consultation for industry and other government organizations. Enhance the awareness of RF/Microwave Engineering to students outside of the field of RF/Microwave. It encourages scientific exchanges among academia and industry within the field of RF, Microwave & Antenna. We have strong IEEE Student Branch Chapter in Antenna Propagation Society and Microwave Theory and Technology. Also, it organizes seminars, workshops regularly and IEEE sponsored conference annually with an aim to promote research, world wide network connectivity to the student community and enhance the spirit of research by eminent Professors.
