Ghent University (UGhent) Wireless, Acoustics, Environment & Expert Systems (WAVES)

The WAVES research group, part of the Department of Information Technology (INTEC) at UGent, has a large expertise in electromagnetic (EM) modeling (including dosimetry) and measurements concerning the physical layer of wireless networks (including 5G) and interaction of EM with humans and animals. WAVES assumes a leading role in ETAIN for 5G-6G exposure assessment, the update of the integrated dose model (IDM), RF-EMF exposure assessment and dosimetry of humans and insects, the creation of 3D-EM insect models, and design of the exposure-aware telecommunication network planning tool.
