Gerd received the Dipl.-Ing. and Dr.-Ing. degrees in Electrical Engineering from the University of Stuttgart, Germany, in 1994 and 1999, respectively. 

Since 1993 Gerd has been engaged in wireless communications and he developed software (propagation models, network planning tools) and hardware (measurement equipment, radio channel emulators, basestation transceivers) for the wireless industry.


Between 1994 and 1999, he was with the Institut für Hochfrequenztechnik at the University of Stuttgart, working on his PhD thesis. In his thesis Gerd worked on the urban and indoor mobile radio channel  and developed different  propagation models (empirical, ray-optical and adaptive models) for indoor and urban scenarios as well as a high resolution channel sounder which he used to validate the propagation models.


Gerd joined AWE Communications in 1998, where he first worked as a R&D enginner in the field of radio network planning tools and propagation models. Since 2001 Gerd worked additionally as a project leader for customer specific R&D projects. 

Today Gerd is the CTO of the company and he is responsible for the WinProp software suite including ProMan, WallMan and AMan. He coordinates the development activities for these software packages and he is responsible for the integration of customer-specific extensions to the suite.


In 1999, the University of Stuttgart asked Gerd to read a lecture about mobile communications for the German Diplom and MSc students and the international MSc students of InfoTech (Information Technology). Approx. 60 students take the course each year and some of them are working during their internship or Master thesis for AWE Communications.

Gerd's areas of interest are mobile communication networks and wave propagation, wherein he has authored and co-authored more than 70 scientific papers. He got two best paper awards at international conferences and holds international patents in USA, Japan and Europe.
