Functie omschrijving

Wireless data traffic is growing exponentially and is driving the development of mobile networks and devices from 4G to 5G services. To handle more users and services at higher data rates and lower latency, the use of larger signal bandwidths and massive MIMO techniques is envisioned. In addition, wireless-based sensing and the “Internet of Things” will change the way we interact with our surroundings and are expected to drastically change our society.
To serve these developments in a cost-effective and ecologically responsible manner while benefiting directly from Moore’s law, novel digital/mixed-signal oriented TX/RX solutions are foreseen in high-end CMOS technology. Scientific challenges are found in identifying and implementing new design/system concepts that are truly energy-efficient, multi-band, modular, data-rate scalable, and cost-effective. The Delft University of Technology aims to be in the centre of these developments and targets to provide the wireless communication and sensing solutions of the future.
A Tenure Track, a process leading up to a permanent appointment with the prospect of becoming an Associate or full Professor, offers young, talented academics a clear and attractive career path. During the Tenure Track, you will have the opportunity to develop into an internationally acknowledged and recognised academic. We offer a structured career and personal development programme designed to offer individual academics as much support as possible. For more information about the Tenure Track and the personal development programme, please visit www.tudelft.nl/tenuretrack.

Functie eisen

A Master and Phd in Electrical Engineering are required. The desired candidate should develop his/her own research line in future wireless communication systems implemented in high-end CMOS technology. The candidate should have a solid basis in RF/ microwave principles, EM field theory, passive and active components and proven qualities in “digital RF”. In addition, we expect you to be a team worker, open-minded and an enthusiastic and inspiring supervisor and lecturer for students.

Arbeidsvoorwaarden

A tenure-track position is offered for six years. Based on performance indicators agreed upon at the start of the appointment, a decision will be made by the fifth year whether to offer you a permanent faculty position.
