The Mobile Communications & Networking department has multiple intern positions available for graduate students during summer 2021. We have an active research program with focus on wireless communications, sensing and networking. During this summer, we aim to continue our current activity as well as create seeds for new directions.
We are looking for summer interns in the following areas:
a) Localization and Tracking: Design and build innovative wireless tracking solutions that can operate in resource-constrained (infrastructure cost, energy, etc.) environments; scope ranges from ultra low power wireless tracking tags to intelligent sensor fusion (visual, RF, acoustic, etc.) approaches for collaborative, immersive applications.
b) Applications over mmWave networks: Context-aware, real-time 3D reconstruction using autonomous agents (AGVs, self-driving vehicles, etc.) operating over local 5G mmWave networks for enabling digital twin applications in industrial environments.
c) mmWave Networks: Designing and implementing new beam-selection algorithms and codebook designs in mmWave base-stations on a test-bed deployed within NECLA campus and evaluating their performance. Explore the use of directional mmWave transmissions for positioning applications.
d) Wireless Sensing: Design and implement new wireless sensing hardware architecture and algorithms that can track and identify human activity in an indoor environment. Scope for sensor technology includes UWB and mmWave radars, and includes solutions for collaborative/cooperative sensing solutions using multiple devices. Explore the use of AI/ML techniques in improving sensor and activity detection accuracy.
