Department of Electronic Engineering

 

About the Project

The Electronic Measurements and Signal Processing (EMS) Group at the Department of Electrical Engineering and Infor-mation Technology is offering a three-year position. This PhD student position is part of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Innovative Training Network “ITN-5VC – Integrated Telematics for Next Generation 5G Vehicular Communications” , funded by the European Union’s Hori-zon 2020 Research and Innovation Program. The research of the Electronic Measurements and Signal Processing group (EMS) within the MSCA ITN-EID project focuses on modelling of electromagnetic wave propagation for multi-band and multi-link Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) wireless links.
At Technische Universität Ilmenau, Germany, we have two ESR positions open (until February 15th 2021):

  • ESR4 on multi-link/multi-band channel modeling
  • ESR5 on joint communication and radar sensing (JCRS)

Entry requirements

  • Above-average university degree in electrical engineering, communications, electromagnetics or physics.
  • Very good knowledge in the fieldof radio propagation modelling and multi-antenna communication systems.
  • Well-founded knowledge in at least two of the following areas of application:
    – Channel sounding or channel measurement principle / technology.
    – Radio standards (e.g. LTE, 5G) and corresponding channel models.
    – Usage of tools for wireless ray tracing.
    – Model based data analysis and statistical fitting.
    – Machine learning and application to wireless communications.
  • Experience in MATLAB or Python.
  • Willingness and ability for academic writing and publications in the international framework.
  • Willingness to travel and mid-term research stays at partners within the “ITN-5VC”.
  • Very good English skills in a technical and scientific environment.
