Communication Technologies Research Center of the Riga Technical University

ABOUT RTU COMTECH

In June 2019, RTU Telecommunications Institute (RTU TI) has established a new research-oriented unit – Communication Technologies Research Center of the Riga Technical University (RTU ComTech). Now, the Centre serves as a joining structure in the Institute by focusing its scientific activities, including research activities from transmission systems group, telecommunication networks group as well as transport electronics and telematics group. In such a way, interdisciplinarity and development of new innovative technologies in fields of engineering and information and communication technologies (ICT) are directly fostered.

RTU ComTech is new and result-oriented RTU unit. It has accumulated all the research expertise, competencies and technical base (scientific equipment) of RTU TI departments obtained during the last years. Therefore, it is fully capable to perform independent research as well as research in collaboration with local or foreign enterprises, research centers, or universities.
