PhD Program

Since 1987 the Department of Signal Theory and Communications offers a PhD Program oriented to the scientific formation in the following areas: 

• Communications with physical and radio support
• Study of phenomena associated to the generation, propagation and radiation of electromagnetic signals ranging from RF/microwave to optical frequencies
• Basic techniques of the signal processing and its applications in communications, voice and image processing
• Telecommunication systems

There is a close connection between teaching contents and research carried out at the department, both making an intensive use of the department’s experimental facilities.

The TSC research groups are strongly involved in international networks and European projects, collaborating with many national and international partners. These collaborations always involve directly or indirectly PhD students, since the research that they carry out is integrated into these projects. At present the program holds quality distinctions of the Spanish as well as the Catalan administrations.
