Job description

This position focuses on future radio systems that can simultaneously communicate to user equipment and sense the surrounding environment as well as the presenting human. The integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) system can be designed at varying integration levels, and we focus on the design of ISAC systems for specific use cases of remote health monitoring.

The future ISAC system for remote health monitoring could operate in the ‘6G’ bands, the midband FR3 (7-24 GHz); could also incorporate multi-standard like Wi-Fi, 5G-A and 6G together; will efficiently use the spectrum, spatial, and power resources to effectively perform the dual functionalities in our remote health monitoring use cases.

The research topic is not limited to one system, but could also consider scaling up, with modular and distributed ISAC systems for communicating, sensing and comprehending. The position will focus on hardware architecture and signal processing techniques.
