Magnus Karlsson

Magnus Karlsson is a Senior Associate Professor at Linköping University's Department of Science and Technology (ITN), within the Physics, Electronics and Mathematics division. He holds a Master of Science (2002) and a PhD (2008) in Communication Electronics from Linköping University's Norrköping campus.

His research focuses on communication electronics, microwave technology for industrial heating, IoT-driven building energy optimization, and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). He leads projects involving digital twins for historic building preservation, energy forecasting, and cloud-based environmental monitoring systems.

Teaching includes four master's courses in Electronics and Systems Design: circuit board design, RF electronics, antenna theory, and EMC. He chairs the master's program planning group and serves on the Program Board for Electrical Engineering, Physics, and Mathematics.

His electromagnetic compatibility laboratory at Norrköping campus supports research on antenna experimentation and EMC standards compliance. Recent work emphasizes IoT integration with historic structures and AI-enhanced energy efficiency systems.
