AMRG was established in 1997, beginning with a Reboan meeting initiated by the Head of Development at FTUI, with one initial member, Dr. Eko Tjipto Rahardjo, as well as undergraduate and graduate students, as there was no doctoral program at that time. With the establishment of the doctoral program, the role of the research group became more prominent, with doctoral students participating in dissertation research under the guidance of supervisors within the research group. To date, AMRG has graduated 17 doctoral students, one of whom is Dr. Fitri Yuli Zulkifli, who has served as Chair of AMRG since 2022. The group is supported by research facilities such as an anechoic chamber developed through the QUE project and renovated in 2007 and 2020, as well as national and international collaboration networks with various institutions.

Throughout its research journey, AMRG has established a strong track record through more than 60 research grants, over 400 publications in reputable national and international journals and conferences, and ownership of 14 intellectual properties. AMRG’s research focuses on electromagnetic applications, particularly antenna engineering, wave propagation, and microwave technology, extending to radar and telecommunications systems, resulting in various innovative microwave and microstrip antenna designs for cellular, satellite, and UWB systems. In addition to theoretical research, AMRG also actively bridges academic research results with real-world needs through community service activities and collaborations with the government, industry, scientific organizations, and communities, in line with the University of Indonesia’s mission to promote the implementation of research results that have an impact on society and industry.
