Ullrich Mönich

Dr.-Ing. Ullrich Mönich is a Senior Researcher and Lecturer at the Technical University of Munich (TUM), affiliated with the Chair of Theoretical Information Technology and leading research activities at the Advanced Communication Systems and Embedded Security Lab (ACES Lab). Since 2019, he has been instrumental in shaping experimental and theoretical research in 6G communications, physical layer security, and signal processing.

Education:

• Dr.-Ing. in Electrical Engineering, Technische Universität München (2011) – supervised by Prof. Holger Boche
• Previous affiliations include MIT (2012–2015) and TU Berlin

Research Focus:

His research spans signal processing, wireless communications, machine learning, and sampling theory, with a strong emphasis on physical layer security, computability in signal processing, and 6G communications. He explores theoretical foundations and practical implementations, including neuromorphic computing, digital twinning, and secure modular coding schemes.

Publications & Trends:

His recent publications (2023–2025) are heavily concentrated in 6G communications, integrated sensing and communications (ISAC), semantic physical layer security, and digital twinning. These works often combine theoretical analysis with experimental validation using 5G/6G testbeds and neuromorphic hardware.

Teaching & Supervision:

• Regularly teaches "Foundations of Analog, Digital, and Quantum Computers" (tutorials since 2018)
• Previously taught "Applied Functional Analysis" and "Advanced Signal Theory"
• Involved in practical courses like "Software Defined Radio Laboratory"

Labs & Teams:

He leads the ACES Lab at TUM, which focuses on experimental validation of advanced communication systems, including physical layer security, neuromorphic computing, and 6G testbeds. The lab collaborates with national and international partners, including MIT, and is supported by major funding bodies such as the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) and the German Research Foundation (DFG).
