Master Thesis: Non-Terrestrial network evolution

Teknik, data och digitalt · Mjukvaru- och webbutveckling · Mjukvaruutveckling

I korthet

This master thesis project focuses on the evolution of Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTNs) for RF sensing, investigating the use of satellite signals to detect objects on or near the ground. The project involves a literature study, scenario definition, simulation model development, and performance analysis of bistatic and multistatic sensing.

Ansvarsområden

  • Conduct a literature study covering RF sensing using non-terrestrial network signals, with focus on bistatic and multistatic sensing concepts.
  • Define a representative LEO satellite constellation scenario where one or more NTN satellites act as illuminators and one or more NTN devices act as receivers.
  • Develop a simulation model for NTN-based RF sensing of objects on or near the ground, including low-altitude flying objects such as drones.
  • Analyze bistatic sensing performance when multiple satellites form a virtual transmitter aperture and a single NTN device acts as receiver.
  • Extend the analysis to multistatic sensing with multiple NTN devices as receivers, and study how satellite geometry, receiver placement, target position, and signal assumptions affect sensing performance.
  • Summarize the feasibility, main limitations, and potential future research directions for using NTN signals in device-based RF sensing.

Krav

  • Final year master's student in Electrical Engineering, Engineering Physics or similar with background in electromagnetics.
  • Genuine interest in wireless communication technologies.
  • Experience in simulation tools such as MATLAB
  • Eager to learn, ambitious, having an innovative mentality as well as being a true standout colleague.
  • Fluent in English, both verbal and written communication.
  • Attach transcripts and coursework with your application.

Förmåner

  • Outstanding opportunity to use your skills and imagination to push the boundaries of what's possible.
  • Build solutions never seen before to some of the world’s toughest problems.
  • Be challenged, but not alone; join a team of diverse innovators.
  • Opportunity to craft what comes next.
