Guest Researcher Position in Cognitive Radio Research with Software Defined
Radios
The Emerging and Mobile Network Technologies Group (EMNTG) in the Information
Technology Laboratory (ITL) of the U.S. Department of Commerce, National
Institute of
Standards and Technology (NIST), conducts performance analysis of communication
technologies and protocols to expedite the development and deployment of
standards for
emerging mobile networks. The Group develops performance metrics and modeling
methodologies using commercially available and in-house customized network
modeling,
simulation, and testbed tools. More information on the Group's activities can
be found at
http://www.nist.gov/itl/antd/emntg/.
We are seeking bright and enthusiastic candidates for a one-year guest
researcher
appointment to implement cognitive radio protocols for research in dynamic
spectrum
access. This position involves the design, development, and use of
cognitive radio
applications on software defined radios. The incumbent will develop novel
cognitive
radio protocols; design, implement, and debug software defined radio
applications that
execute these protocols; and evaluate the performance of these protocols on a
testbed
using accepted metrics.
A programmable wireless communication testbed composed of USRP N210s and an
RF
channel emulator will serve as the platform for application development and
testing. The
incumbent will use GNU Radio and/or other toolkits to program the USRP.
Candidates
should have experience with digital signal processing and programming in
Python, C++,
and MATLAB. Experience with GNU Radio and FPGA programming is desired.
The incumbent must work well in a team environment and possess a strong
commitment
with the ability to deliver high quality software. Minimum educational
qualifications
required for this position are a Bachelor of Science in Electrical/Computer
Engineering,
Computer Science, or equivalent. U.S.-based applicants must have U.S.
citizenship.
Foreign applicants would come to NIST on a J-1 visa. Email c.v./resume with
