Offer Description

About the SnT…

The University of Luxembourg is seeking to hire a highly motivated and an outstanding researcher in the area of optimization performance of interference-limited wireless communication systems for its Interdisciplinary Centre of Security and Trust (SnT), within the Signal Processing and Communications (SigCom) research group, led by Prof. Björn Ottersten and Dr. Symeon Chatzinotas.

SnT carries out interdisciplinary research in secure, reliable and trustworthy ICT (Information and Communication Technologies) systems and services, often in collaboration with governmental, industrial and international partners. SnT is active in several national projects funded by National Research Fund (FNR) and local industries, and international research projects funded by the EU FP7 programme, H2020 programme and the European Space Agency (ESA). For further information, you may check: www.securityandtrust.lu

The SigCom research group carries out research activities in the areas of signal processing for wireless communication systems including satellite communications and radar systems, and is currently expanding its research activities in exploring several emerging use cases of next generation wireless communications systems. For details, you may refer to the following: https://wwwen.uni.lu/snt/research/sigcom

Your Role…

• Integrate with the SIGCOM research group and contribute to the SIGCOM on-going research projects
• Identify and shortlist potential applications from the 5G wireless domain (including non-terrestrial networks) that can benefit either from: (i) continual learning, and (ii) spiking neural networks implemented in neuromorphic processors.
• Design and develop the machine learning algorithms able to provide a good performance-complexity trade-off for the identified scenarios and use cases.
• Implement a synthetic data generator to be used for testing the developed algorithms.
• Compare with state-of-the-art and conventional solutions via numerical simulations and/or HW/chipset validation.
• Disseminating results through scientific publications and conferences
• Preparing new research proposals to attract new projects
• Providing assistance in the supervision of PhD students

Your Profile…

• A PhD degree in Telecommunication Engineering, or Electrical Engineering or Computer Science/engineering with a focus on artificial intelligence.
• Experience with 5G communication systems.
• Experience with non-terrestrial networks (NTNs) is considered a plus but it is not required.
• Good knowledge of the recent trends in machine learning design, particularly:
• Continual Learning
• Neuromorphic Computing.
• International experience is desirable.
• Sound publication track record in relevant international conferences and top journals (at least one IEEE Transaction publication is mandatory):
• Strong programming skills in Python, MATLAB and LaTeX. Other languages such as Lava, Julia, C++, are desirable but not mandatory.
• Experience of working with industrial projects or public funded research projects is highly desirable.
• Highly committed, excellent team-worker, and strong critical thinking skills
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English

Here’s what awaits you at SnT…

• Exciting infrastructures and unique labs. At SnT’s two campuses, our researchers can take a walk on the moon at the LunaLab, build a nanosatellite, or help make autonomous vehicles even better
• The right place for IMPACT. SnT researchers engage in demand-driven projects. Through our Partnership Programme, we work on projects with more than 55 industry partners
• Be part of a multicultural family. At SnT we have more than 60 nationalities. Throughout the year, we organise team-building events, networking activities and more
