In a cooperation between the Integrated Circuits and Quantum Computing institute of Prof. Harald Pretl at JKU Linz and the Computer Engineering group at JMU Würzburg lead by Prof. Matthias Jung, a WSPR-capable transmitter realized as a 130 nm analog mixed-signal design via Tiny Tapeout has been developed. Early results demonstrate that a signal with only ~10 mW of transmit power was able to be received across central Europe on the 40 m amateur band.

The paper titled "A Mathematical Model for XOR-Based Application-Specific DRAM Address Mapping Schemes" received the Best Paper Award at the 11th International Symposium on Memory Systems (MEMSYS) in Washington D.C.

Für seine Leistungen im Bereich der Ausbildung neuer Funkamateure wurde Prof. Matthias Jung auf der internationalen Amateurfunk-Ausstellung HAM RADIO 2025 in Friedrichshafen der renommierte Rudolf-Horkheimer Preis verliehen.
