PhD Student in Radar Interference Avoidance (m/f/d)

Job description

Radar Interference Mitigation Automotive imaging radar sensors are becoming an essential ingredient for driving assistance and self-driving cars. With increasing market penetration, it is expected that interference from other radar sensors becomes more severe and limits radar sensor performance by causing ghost images, blurring, or blinding. The need for higher image resolution demands more antennas and larger sensing bandwidth, amplifying the interference problem. Do you have a strong interest in signal processing, radio communication, stochastic signals, image processing, or neural networks? You can help us solve this problem! Proposed Research: You will investigate the influence of radar interference from other vehicles and study ways to prevent interference or minimize its impact, targeting reliable sensing using safety-critical radar sensors. By simulating modelled traffic scenarios and/or measuring on real hardware, you will assess interference mitigation approaches with respect to their usefulness to accomplish the goal. You will be working alongside NXP’s radar development team in Dresden, closely connected with local and remote NXP innovation teams. Scientific supervision...
