About this position

At Linköping University, this doctoral position is based in the Division of Communication Systems within the Department of Electrical Engineering (ISY). The project sits at the intersection of communication systems, wireless networking, and decentralised machine learning, with a clear focus on how future satellite networks can support distributed computation.

The PhD project will investigate cooperative computing and distributed learning in satellite networks. The research aims to develop algorithms for distributed optimisation and machine learning that can operate under challenging network conditions, including dynamic topologies, intermittent connectivity, and limited communication and computing resources. This places the work in a highly relevant area for next-generation networked systems where coordination must continue despite changing connectivity and constrained platforms.

As a doctoral student, you will primarily pursue your research education and participate in the associated research project. The position is embedded in an environment that conducts research and education in communication technology, wireless communication, statistical signal processing, and decentralised machine learning. The advert also notes that doctoral duties may include some teaching or other departmental tasks, up to 20 percent of full-time employment.

The position is located within a research setting that brings together communication systems expertise and machine-learning-oriented methods, with the doctoral work centred on algorithmic development for distributed settings in satellite-based networks.

Funding details

Doctoral salary according to a locally negotiated salary scale; position is time-limited for normally four years full-time, with possible extension up to five years based on teaching and departmental duties.

What's required

Applicants must have a second-cycle degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or Applied Mathematics, or completed at least 240 higher education credits with at least 60 credits at advanced level in those subjects, or otherwise acquired substantially equivalent knowledge. The degree requirement must be satisfied by the time the employment contract is signed. Candidates should demonstrate strong mathematical maturity, very good programming skills, and the ability to communicate in English both orally and in writing. Applicants should also be able to work independently, be goal-oriented, solve problems effectively, communicate clearly, and collaborate well with others.
