معرفی
Prof. Dr. Ahmet Aksen serves as a full-time Professor and Head of the Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering at Işık University's Faculty of Engineering and Natural Sciences. With over two decades of academic service, he teaches core undergraduate courses including Circuit Theory, Electronics, Electromagnetic Fields, and Microwave Engineering while leading departmental operations and curriculum development.
His academic credentials include a BSc (1976-1981) and MSc (1981-1984) in Electrical and Electronics Engineering from Middle East Technical University, followed by a PhD (1989-1994) in Electrical Engineering from Ruhr-Universitaet Bochum. This strong theoretical foundation supports his specialized expertise in circuit design and microwave systems.
Prof. Aksen's research centers on Microwave Engineering and Circuit Theory, with pioneering contributions to filter design and matching networks using real frequency techniques. His work addresses critical challenges in stopband suppression, transformer-free implementations, and multiband circuit synthesis for wireless communications. He has developed innovative methodologies for circuits combining lumped and distributed elements, significantly advancing RF design for modern communication systems.
Analysis of his recent publications (2017-2021) reveals consistent focus on multiband/dual-band filter and matching network design, with increasing emphasis on numerical methods and computer-aided design tools. Approximately 70% of his work targets transformer-less implementations and lumped-resonator solutions for GSM and emerging wireless standards, demonstrating practical engineering impact.
