The Department of Information and Communications Engineering is now inviting applications for a
Postdoctoral Researcher in statistical signal processing.
The Structured and Stochastic Modeling Group, headed by Prof. Filip Elvander, conducts research in statistical signal processing, ranging from investigating fundamental properties of the mathematical descriptions of signals, to applied research in array signal processing. We are now looking for an outstanding Postdoctoral Researcher to join the group.
The research project is concerned with the challenging problem of modeling the complex modern radio environment, where a diverse set of devices and agents share the available spectrum. In this environment, it is crucial to understand the spatio-temporal radio characteristics, i.e. what, when, and from where signals are transmitted and how they interact with the environment. Applications of the envisioned research results include cognitive and adaptive spectrum use as well as localization of targets or signal sources in passive-sensing settings. This lies at the heart of the emerging field of integrated sensing and communications (ISAC), which is expected to be a core component of emerging 6G wireless systems.
The research project is part of a larger consortium with industrial partners, gathering world-class researchers in sensing and making sense of the physical
