Curriculum Vitae

Caspar v. Lengerke studied Electrical Engineering at RWTH Aachen University and received his Master’s degree in 2019. Thereafter, he studied Economics at Heidelberg University before joining the Deutsche Telekom Chair of Communication Networks at TU Dresden in July 2021.

Projects/Cooperation within CeTI you are already involved in:
Ecologic computing

What is your research interest?

My research focuses on message identification. In Identification, a receiver wants to find out whether two messages match. This can be accomplished with high reliability and small data rates for more efficient communication.

What motivated you to do what you do today?

I was always fascinated by groundbreaking ideas that revolutionize a field. In research, I can contribute to investigating such fundamentally novel approaches to keep improving our communication systems.

What do you find particularly interesting about CeTI?

The interdisciplinary approach of CeTI. Modern problems are often interdependent and require expertise from different fields. Also, I love that CeTI proacitvely engages in societal activities such as school modules.

To which question have you not found an answer lately?

How can we save unnecessary traffic that congests our communication networks without sacrificing the flexibility of current protocols?

How do you spend your free time?

Volleyball, running, biking.
