Prof. Dr.-Ing. Robert Fischer has been a full professor for Communications and Signal Theory at the University of Ulm, Germany, since 2011. He specializes in fast digital transmission techniques, including single- and multicarrier modulation, with a focus on precoding and shaping methods for high-rate systems. Research Interests: His work spans Precoding and Signal Shaping , Equalization Algorithms , OFDM Transmission Systems , Low-Complexity Receivers , MIMO and Multiuser Communications , Ultra-Wideband , Information Theory , Channel Coding , Physical-Layer Security , and Compressed Sensing . Recent publications emphasize applications in THz communication, MIMO systems, and compressed sensing. Scientific Recognition: He has received multiple awards, including the Promotionspreis der Technischen Fakultät (1997) Literaturpreis der ITG (2000) Wolfgang-Finkelnburg-Habilitationspreis (2002) Philipp-Reis-Preis (2005) Christian Doppler Laboratory Industrial Award (2007) Best Paper Award at International OFDM Workshop (2012) Teaching: At Ulm University, he teaches Signals and Systems , Communications Engineering , and MIMO Systems . Previously, he taught courses like Kanalcodierung (Channel Coding) at University Erlangen (1998–2010) and short courses at ETH Zürich and TU Berlin.
