2027_EM4 – mm-Wave multiplexers for radio astronomy (Master’s degree study in Engineering)

A Master’s degree Engineering study is proposed on mm-wave multiplexers for radio astronomy, supervised by Prof Tinus Stander (University of Pretoria). The work will apply manifold multiplexing theory to two mm-wave spectrometers: a kinetic inductance read-out and a multi-channel atmospheric radiometer, with milestones covering literature review/theoretical synthesis in Y1 and testing/design/measurement plus final dissemination in Y2.

Who it is for: A prospective applicant for a bachelor’s degree project with exposure to high frequency electronics and/or electromagnetics (RF components and RF simulation software knowledge is advisable).
How to act on it: Contact the supervisor at the email address provided in the document.
