                                                            Abstract
                                                            In the first part of this short course we discuss the concept of frames for Hilbert spaces and the advantages of these more flexible systems compared to bases. As the most prominent examples, we introduce Gabor frames and wavelet frames. The second part of the course focuses on the question of phase retrieval that can be formulated as retrieving a signal from the magnitudes of its frame coefficients. Naturally, the questions of uniqueness and stability arise and will be discussed in the real valued and in the complex valued setting.
