Offer Description

 

Sapienza University, Department of Information Engineering, Electronics and Telecommunications, is looking for two 1-year post-doc positions (renewable positions). The hiring process goes through a public selection procedure. Competitive salary, based in Rome.

The research aims at supporting the development of future space missions for passive and active observation of the Earth using microwave sensors and systems.

 

The research targets the retrieval and approximation of bio-geophysical variables of the scattering from natural surface, with a special focus on land and forests (considering both bistatic and monostatic approaches)). The system performance and the relevant background theoretical aspects (e.g., propagation, antenna theory, signal processing, approximation theory, neural networks) will also be considered.

 The research is connected to data exploitation of current and future space missions for the observation of the Earth surface, also in collaboration with the European Space Agency.
