Student Assistant / Master Thesis - Machine Learning Aided Signal Processing in Communication System
The »Broadband and Broadcast« department is active in the areas of mobile communications, embedded ML/AI, Internet-of-Things and automotive communication systems. We take new concepts and algorithms in the fields of communications and digital signal processing (e.g. machine learning) from theory, implement them and test them in simulations and in prototypes in our labs and in the field. You are interested in the field of Communication Systems and would like to develop further in the field of signal processing and machine learning? Then have a look at our offer! Requirements on latency, bandwidth, and the number of connected users in the network are getting more demanding in every generation of wireless communication. The current state-of-the-art approaches do not yet feasibly meet the theoretical performance bounds in important use cases. Exploring possible alternative signal processing blocks is an open research problem. Within the framework of this position, machine learning-aided short-block single-carrier transmission, including equalization, shall be investigated to reduce the latency while keeping high power and bandwidth efficiency.
