History of the Institue of Radio Frequency
The founding year was 1st April 1967 without any doubt. One year before Prof. Dr.-Ing. J. Dosse founded the Institute of Hyperfrequency. But he worked more in the sector of semiconductors. After Prof. Eggers inauguration the Institute of Hyperfrequency was renamed in Institute of Semiconductor Engineering.
In 1986 Prof. Dr.-Ing. habil. Friedrich M. Landstorfer was appointed. He was also like Prof. Egger a "Meinke-Student".
1992 the new anecho chamber was ready for operation.
In the late 90s and early 2000s the institute got a boost because of the mobile communication boom. New areas of research were established, e.g. simulation of radio cell wave propagation as well as electromagnetic environmental compatibility.
