In this project, you will support and lead activities related to localization and sensing. We provide an intellectually stimulating, but also flexible and family-friendly environment. You will have great freedom when, where and how you will work. Our group is very international and social, with members from many countries and backgrounds. We have an emphasis on collaboration and mutual support. The research activities you will be part of will have high impact, both in academia and in industry. This position is a great opportunity for you as a postdoc to apply your scientific and technical skills as part of a multidisciplinary team of leading researchers at the interface of applications and science in with great importance for industry and society.
Information about the research project
As mobile communication systems will utilize higher frequencies, they start to behave like radar. Within this research project, you will work on novel methods to explore the potential of using radio signals for localization and sensing. This position is part of several ongoing projects on Beyond 5G localization in which you will gain not only theoretical knowledge, but also industry contacts. You can check out this website for our recent publications in this field. You will be part of the Communication Systems Group at Chalmers, which is known for its contributions to wireless and optical communication systems. The group has about 40 members from all over the world.
The position is for 2 years, with the possibility to extend for two more years, depending on your performance and the available funding. You will receive a competitive salary with social benefits and pension.
Major responsibilities
In this project, you will perform cutting-edge research on localization and sensing using Beyond 5G signals and technologies, including terahertz waveforms, intelligent surfaces, and artificial intelligence. You are expected to publish high-quality high-impact papers, work with PhD students, and be involved in project management, deliverable writing, and leading industry-academia joint meetings. You will also gain knowledge in proposal writing and there are opportunities for teaching.
Your major responsibility as a postdoc is to perform your own research in a research group. The position may also include teaching on undergraduate and master's levels as well as supervising master's and/or PhD students to a certain extent. Another important aspect involves collaboration within academia and with society at large. The position is meritorious for future research duties within academia as well as industry/the public sector.
Qualifications
PhD in electrical engineering or computer science, with specialization in signal processing, tracking, localization, mapping, SLAM, sensor fusion, or machine learning. Mathematical skills in, e.g., optimization and stochastic processes, are desirable as are excellent programming skills. Knowledge in wireless communication theory is an added advantage. You must have a proven publication record in IEEE journals and/or conferences. Good communication skills and fluency in English are also essential. Candidates are expected be creative and have the ability to initiate new research collaborations, work in teams, present their ideas and results to researchers with different backgrounds, and be open to the application of results. Experience in international collaboration, innovation and utilization, and teaching are also meritorious.
To qualify for the position of postdoc, you must hold a doctoral degree awarded no more than three years prior to the application deadline (according to the current agreement with the Swedish Agency for Government Employers). You are expected to be somewhat accustomed to teaching, and to demonstrate good potential within research and education.
The position requires sound verbal and written communication skills in English. Swedish is not a requirement but Chalmers offers Swedish courses.
Contract terms
This postdoc position is a full-time temporary employment for two years.
