Jonas Ekman

I'm Professor at the Department of Computer Science, Electrical and Space Engineering performing research on electromagnetic modeling. In this area, we have been working with developing the Partial Element Equivalent Circuit (PEEC) method since 1999. Our main academic partner is University of L'Aquila (IT). We have performed a multitude of projects in the areas of:

• power systems,
• antenna systems,
• device modeling etc.

For futher information on my work, please browse through the publications below, look at the presentation (here), and contact me for further discussions.

From 2009, I was Head of the Computer Science and Electrical Engineering Department, then from 2011 for the Computer Science, Electrical and Space Engineering Department. Since 2023, I am chair for Electronic Systems.
