Description

Developing next-generation joint communcations and sensing applications requires precise measurements of the radio frequency propagation environment as well as sensing target characterization. The NIST channel sounding measurement team specializes in the development and use of instrumentation in the 10s of GHz based on phased array antennas that is optimized to capture dynamically evolving environments. Research opportunities focus on various aspects of the instrumentation design, development, testing, and measurement applications. A particular focus is on phased array antennas, radio frequency signals design and processing, and mutlitmodal sensing. The project welcomes expertise in robotics, serial communication protocols and microprocessors, signal processing, and finite element modeling, and also provides opportunities for further development in these areas.
