Job description
We are recruiting a postdoctoral researcher to work with Dr. Hamdi Joudeh on information theory for joint communication and sensing (JCAS). This is a full-time position for two years and will be based in the Information and Communication Theory (ICT) Lab within the Electrical Engineering (EE) Department at the Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e).
General Motivation and Research Topic
The integration of radio communication and sensing services in the same network infrastructure will be a key feature of next generation wireless technology. It is envisaged that wireless transceivers will be able to communicate with active devices, and simultaneously detect, localize, and track passive targets within their vicinity; all using the same spectrum and hardware resources. This emerging JCAS paradigm, currently at the frontier of wireless research, will revolutionize a broad range of applications, from automotive and transportation to healthcare and environmental monitoring.
This postdoc position is focused on developing a principled information theoretic framework for JCAS. The goal is to establish fundamental performance limits and trade-offs; and provide guiding principles for the design of efficient and reliable JCAS-enabled wireless systems.
Academic and Research Environment
Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) is one of Europe’s top technological universities, situated in the heart of one of Europe’s largest high-tech innovation ecosystems. Research at TU/e is characterized by a combination of academic excellence and a strong real-world impact. This impact is often obtained via close collaboration with high-tech industries.
Research related to this position will be carried out in the ICT Lab within the EE Department, and in close collaboration with Dr. Hamdi Joudeh.
Job requirements
- PhD degree in Electrical Engineering or closely related fields.
- Background in information theory, communication theory, wireless communications, and detection and estimation theory (statistical signal processing).
- Knowledge of radar signal processing and/or coding theory is desirable.
- Track record of high-quality research publications in peer reviewed journals and international conferences.
- Proficiency in English (written and verbal).
- Research independence.
Conditions of employment
A meaningful job in a dynamic and ambitious university, in an interdisciplinary setting and within an international network. You will work on a beautiful, green campus within walking distance of the central train station. In addition, we offer you:
- Full-time employment for 2 years.
- Salary in accordance with the Collective Labour Agreement for Dutch Universities, scale 10 (min. €3,877 max. €5,090).
- A year-end bonus of 8.3% and annual vacation pay of 8%.
- High-quality training programs on general skills, didactics and topics related to research and valorization.
- An excellent technical infrastructure, on-campus children's day care and sports facilities.
- Partially paid parental leave and an allowance for commuting, working from home and internet costs.
- A TU/e Postdoc Association that helps you to build a stronger and broader academic and personal network, and offers tailored support, training and workshops.
A Staff Immigration Team is available for international candidates, as are a tax compensation scheme (the 30% facility) and a compensation for moving expenses.
