Mobile phones, Wi-Fi, radar and satellite navigation all run on radio, microwave and optical signals. We study and build the devices that carry them.

Join the group

Three bands

We work across radio frequency, microwave and optical communication: how the devices work, how to simulate them, and how to make and test them here.

Join the group

If you want to work on the devices behind modern communication, start here. Phones, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, radar and satellite navigation all depend on radio, microwave and optical signals.

Our work covers three bands: radio frequency, microwave and optical. We study how communication devices in each band work and how to make them better.

We are building a facility to fabricate and characterise devices here, and developing our own simulation software at CUI.
