Next-generation 6G cellular systems will provide unprecedented capabilities in order to serve dependable data communication streams, as for example originating in industrial automation. While this application domain has received some attention in 5G, cyber-physical networking capabilities will be at the heart of upcoming 6G systems. This will be facilitated by data-driven methods that can be leveraged in end-to-end contexts providing predictable services.
Our research group has a decade-long track record in leading academic research with real-world impact in the area of industrial wireless networking. We are looking for an outstanding individual interested in integrating with a strong KTH-internal team as well as with external stakeholders in order to shape future 6G networks. We typically combine fundamental research work (leveraging methods from communication and queuing theory) with experimental testbed development and trials. Candidates with a strong track record in either of these domains (with respect to wireless networking) are encouraged to submit applications. Solid command of machine learning theory and/or practical skills is a plus.
Third-cycle subject: Electrical Engineering
Supervision: Professor James Gross
