Effective Aug. 1, 2023, Dr.-Ing. Dirk Nüßler, Head of section (acting) Industrial High Frequency Systems IHS at the Fraunhofer Institute for High Frequency Physics and Radar Techniques FHR, has been appointed as professor of Integrated High Frequency Sensors at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Information Technology at Ruhr University Bochum.

The German Institute of Navigation (DGON) and the Fraunhofer Institute for High Frequency Physics and Radar Techniques FHR invited to the International Radar Symposium (IRS) 2023. After a highly successful series of radar symposia that started in Germany in 1998, this symposium took place in Berlin. Due to the rapid development of technologies, radar is still an expanding technical and economical field with many practical applications both in civilian and military areas.

The Fraunhofer Institute for High Frequency Physics and Radar Techniques FHR is participating in the "Instantaneous Infrastructure Monitoring by Earth Observation" (IIMEO) project. The project is funded by the European Union under the Horizon Europe program as an Innovation Action with 2.8 million euros and aims to develop and demonstrate key technologies for global monitoring of critical infrastructure from space in near real-time. The pilot application is the monitoring of rail networks. The project runs until November 30, 2025.

With three thematically focused areas aligned with the main application fields, a Project Management Office, and customized structures in administration, the institute has set the course for continued success in the future.
