The group's core competencies include developing algorithms and system concepts for communication, signal detection, localization, and classification in challenging environments, as well as hardware implementations and prototypes of these advanced RF systems. The group has expertise in adaptive antenna array processing, signal detection and estimation,statistical inference, pattern recognition, multichannel communications, wideband sampling techniques, antenna and RF subsystem design, and systems analysis. The group is applying machine learning techniques to spectrum operations problems.The group is also interested in exploring methods for (distributed) control and monitoring of networked control systems, with applications specific to RF communication systems. The staff members have advanced degrees in electrical engineering, physics, and applied mathematics. To support concept development and evaluation, the group conducts a significant amount of field tests and data collection campaigns, and collaborates with other groups within the division and throughout the Laboratory in real-time prototype implementation, experiment execution, and systems analysis. The Position: The Group is seeking creative and enthusiastic candidates with an interest in applying signal processing and artificial intelligence techniques to develop novel algorithms that enable new capabilities in next-generation RF communication systems. Typical assignments include algorithm design, analysis, and implementation; communication system analysis; software and hardware prototyping and test activities; documentation and planning; and field experimentation, data collection, and post-experiment analysis. Staff in this Position typically assume, or quickly grow into, roles where they are leading one or more aspects of an analysis or prototyping effort. Required Skills: M.S.
