Campus tour is offered annually to the high school students in Japan. Open campus give students the opportunity to meet academic staff, tour campus and learn more about major and programs offered by Kyushu University.

At the start of the tour, Prof. Dr. Kanaya gave students an idea about the scope of research in our laboratory and applications in wireless and cellular communications. In addition, the basic concept of building blocks in RF system and the circuit design of analog/RF ICs for wireless communication were introduced to the students. The tour concludes with the demonstration of the prototype co-developed by our laboratory and industry. Various methods of measurements were conducted to show the magnitude and phase from the output of the device as a function of frequency.

This tour offers a glimpse into the collaborative research efforts between academia and industry to overcome challenges in a rapidly changing world of wireless and mobile communications system.
