We are looking for highly motivated Ph.D. students and Postdoctoral researchers to conduct research on wireless communications, under the direction of Prof. Haris Gačanin.
The positions involve carrying out research and prototyping on physical-layer communications including wireless baseband processing, multiple antenna systems, machine learning for PHY-layer, estimation theory and statistical signal processing, and radio resource management. A particular focus of the research is to study the real-world constraints through prototyping. The overall objective is to develop reliable, high capacity and extended range wireless communication systems.
Tasks
Contribute to R&D projects through the development of simulators and prototypes
Participate in collaboration projects with our academic and industry partners
Support event organization and assist in teaching, e.g. lecture exercises, labs, and seminars
Contribute to patent and technical reports, lead the drafting and submitting of papers to top international journals and conferences and/or research proposals .
Qualifications
PhD/Postdoc applicants must hold a Master of Science / PhD degree in electrical engineering or computer science that is equivalent and compliant to RWTH Aachen requirements.
The candidates must have excellent knowledge of radio/wireless communications, probability theory, and linear algebra with applications in signal processing. Evidence of projects applying machine learning is a plus.
a) Extensive knowledge in C/C++ and Linux. List the evidence in the form of past projects.
b) Or extensive hands-on experience with at least one of the SDR platforms and FPGA programming. List the evidence in the form of past projects .
