 Dear all, 

there is an open PhD researcher position in my group in Klagenfurt in the 
following project funded by the Austrian Science Fund:  

  Dynamics of Interference in Wireless Networks
  http://indy.nes.aau.at/

The temporal and spatial dynamics of multiple-access interference in wireless 
networks has significant impact on diversity techniques and protocols. The goal 
of this project is to gain a deep understanding of interference correlation in 
the time and space domain and to rigorously analyze its impact on system 
performance. Taking into account various sources of correlation - node 
locations, channel, and traffic - we aim at deriving expressions for the 
correlation coefficient of the overall interference power received at a certain 
point in space. Based on such expressions, we analyze the overall outage rate 
and throughput of cooperative diversity schemes.

With more than 10.000 students, the University of Klagenfurt is a vibrant and 
innovative university in the southern part of Austria, a region with top 
quality living conditions at the confluence of alpine and Mediterranean 
culture. 

The position is located at the Institute of Networked and Embedded Systems 
(NES) - one of the universitys largest and most third-party funded research 
and teaching units. NES offers
an international working atmosphere and is part of the Lakeside Labs research 
cluster on Self-organizing Networked Systems and the European Erasmus-Mundus 
doctoral school on Interactive and Cognitive Environments.

The PhD researcher will work in close cooperation with two PostDoc researchers. 

In order to increase the number of women in leading academic positions, we 
specifically encourage women to apply. In case of equal qualifications, female 
candidates will be preferred.

Applications including CV and list of courses and grades can be sent to 
kornelia.lienbacher at aau.at. 

Annual salary: 27.381 EUR gross

Best regards, 
Christian Bettstetter
