About this position

Linköping University is seeking a PhD student in communication systems at the Department of Electrical Engineering (ISY), within the Division of Communication Systems.

The doctoral project investigates distributed and cooperative computing, learning, and inference over satellite networks. The research will develop communication-efficient distributed algorithms that address dynamic network topologies, intermittent connectivity, and limited communication and computing resources. The work lies at the intersection of satellite communications, decentralized machine learning, distributed systems, and networked inference.

The PhD student will devote most of their time to doctoral studies and the research projects of the division. The role may also include teaching or other departmental duties. The research environment covers communications engineering, statistical signal processing, network science, and decentralized machine learning, providing an interdisciplinary setting for advanced work on communication-constrained learning and computation.

The project is hosted at Linköping University in Sweden, with Zheng Chen, Associate Professor, listed as a contact person for the position.

Funding details

This is a salaried PhD employment. The salary is determined according to a locally negotiated salary progression. The employment is normally four years of full-time equivalent, with possible extension up to five years based on teaching and institutional duties; the initial contract is for one year and may be renewed for up to two years at a time depending on progress.

What's required

Applicants must hold a Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or Applied Mathematics, comprising at least 240 credits with at least 60 credits in advanced courses in one of those fields, or possess essentially equivalent knowledge. The degree requirement must be fulfilled no later than the employment decision. Applicants must demonstrate strong mathematical maturity, excellent programming skills, excellent oral and written English communication, independence, goal orientation, problem-solving ability, clear communication, and effective collaboration skills.
