Doctoral or young postdoctoral candidate with the topic 'Communication and coding in quantum networks' (TV-L E13) (f/m/x)

The institute for communications engineering offers a position for a doctoral or young postdoctoral candidate with the topic “Communication and coding in quantum networks” (TV-L E13) (f/m/x)

The institute for communications engineering offers a position for a doctoral or young postdoctoral candidate with the topic “Communication and coding in quantum networks” (TV-L E13) (f/m/x) for the project "6G and Quantum Technology (6GQT)", which is being funded by the Bavarian State Ministry of Economic Affairs, Regional Development and Energy. ). The gross monthly remuneration in pay group TV-E 13 is in the range €4,074 - €5,873, depending on work experience and length of service.

In this project, the lower network layers and an associated integrated communication system are modeled using information theory. We wish to investigate how interleaving can reduce the overhead and computational load due to coding coefficients required in classical linear random network coding. The position is initially limited to four years and an extension is possible. The project already started at February 1st, 2022.

Content of the project and areas of responsibility

• Information-theoretical analysis of entanglement-supported classical communication,
• Encoding protocols for entanglement-assisted classical communication,
• Protocols for interleaving transmission in networks.

Your qualifications

• Above-average university degree in electrical engineering, communications engineering, mathematics, physics (or similar) with thorough knowledge in quantum information and communication theory, as well as in quantum coding theory
• Interest in theoretical work with high practical relevance
• Interest in demonstrating research results on a hardware platform
• Software: Experience with MATLAB, C++, Python or similar
• Goal-oriented, independent and structured work style

Our offer

• Current research topic in a challenging international working environment
• Full-time position (TV-L E13) with the possibility of earning a doctoral degree

To apply

Please send us your application by e-mail ([email protected]) with the following documents:

• Curriculum vitae, copies of relevant certificates and diplomas, contact information for two references
• Short description of your research interests and your motivation for the application
• Master thesis and (if available) up to 3 publications
