About us...
The University of Luxembourg is an international research university with a distinctly multilingual and interdisciplinary character.
TheInterdisciplinary Centre for Security, Reliability and Trust (SnT) at the University of Luxembourg is a leading international research and innovation centre in secure, reliable and trustworthy ICT systems and services.
We play an instrumental role in Europe by fueling innovation through research partnerships with industry, boosting R&D investments leading to economic growth, and attracting highly qualified talent.Welook forresearchers from diverse academic backgrounds to contribute to our projects in areas such as: Network Security, Information Assurance, Model-driven Security, Cloud Computing, Cryptography, Satellite Systems, Vehicular Networks, and ICT Services & Applications.
About the role...
The successful candidates are expected to perform the following tasks:
- Work on project-relevant subjects from the last and current Release of the 3GPP radio access and/or core network standards, implement the features in MATLAB and/or OpenAirInterface software for computer simulations, and conduct theoretical research to submit proposals to the ongoing study or work items, with a view towards patenting and possible inclusion into the future Releases.
- Perform research on future communications networks topics including, but not limited to:
- Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTNs)
- Multicast and Broadcast Services (MBSs)
- Uncrewed Aerial Vehicle (UAV), UA System (UAS) and Urban Air Mobility (UAM)
- Experimental emulators, prototypes, testbeds and distributed research infrastructure test platforms
- Set up real-world testing both in the laboratory using emulators and software defined radios (SDRs), and in the field using drones or satellites, to validate research or project outcomes
- Disseminating results through foremost scientific publications and conferences in their fields
- Contribute to the development of research proposals for attracting funding through industrial, national, and European projects on the topic
- Publish research findings in the prestigious peer-reviewed journals and present at relevant conferences
- Contribute to different research projects, either coordinating technical contribution and/or preparing project deliverables
- Eventually, help in the supervision of PhD students
