Master thesis worker

 

The Departments of Communications and Networking and Signal Processing and Acoustics at Aalto ELEC are looking for a master thesis worker/researcher. The thesis work will be done in a project funded by Renesas Mobile Europe (RME) and in close cooperation with personnel of RME’s System Research and Standardization (SRS) organization.

Description:

The thesis is in the field of cellular network system simulations. Your role will be in LTE system simulations and concept development. The work is targeted to diploma thesis, but is well suited for graduate students as well.

 

Your main tasks will include system performance analysis and simulations for cellular systems, in particular for LTE. Simulations shall be run with either dynamic or quasi-static radio network system simulator. Potential research areas may include some of the following topics:

 

  • MIMO/CoMP:

    • Coordinated multi-point operation (CoMP): DL/UL scheduling & RRM, feedback design for joint processing, coordinated beamforing/scheduling, heterogeneous operation.

    • Single cell MIMO operation including both single user and multiuser MIMO: scheduling & RRM, precoding and CQI optimization, dynamic operation of single/multi-user.

  • Heterogenous networks: Simulation of mobility performance in Heterogeneous networks with interference coordination, optimization & RRM algorithms in Heterogeneous networks

 

 

Qualifications for the position:

  •  
    • Good understanding of the LTE system

    • Good understanding of radio communication theory and system performance analysis

    • The capability to apply mathematical analysis to practical issues in system development

    • Good understanding of MIMO/CoMP theory

    • Excellent C/C++/MATLAB coding skills

    • Technical writing skills

    • Proactiveness and good ability for teamwork

 

 

If you are interested in the position, please send your application latest 7.3.2012.
