The Antennas and Propagation Lab (APL) at the iTEAM Research Institute of the Universitat Politècnica de València (UPV) is offering a fully funded 4-year PhD position within the REMANDO-2030 project, focused on advanced radio channel measurements and modeling for future IMT-2030 wireless systems. This is an excellent opportunity to join a strong research environment working at the frontier of radio propagation, channel characterization, wireless communications, and advanced modeling techniques for next-generation networks.
What you will work on
- Real-world radio channel measurement campaigns in microwave, mmWave, and sub-THz bands
- Development of advanced stochastic, deterministic, data-driven, and AI-based channel models
- Analysis of the impact of radio propagation on emerging IMT-2030 enabling technologies
- Simulation and ray-tracing tools for complex propagation environments
- Research dissemination through top-tier journals and international conferences
Candidate profile
- Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Electrical Engineering, Electronic Engineering, Telecommunications Engineering, or related fields
- Background in radio propagation, channel modeling, wireless communications, and signal processing
- Programming skills in MATLAB and/or Python
- Strong command of English
- Previous experience in channel sounding, ray tracing, or AI for communications will be positively valued
- Strong motivation for experimental and measurement-based research
What we offer
- A 4-year full-time PhD position.
- The opportunity to carry out research within a leading group in antennas and propagation.
- A stimulating international research environment with opportunities for scientific publication and mobility.
- Application deadline: March 25.
