[UK] PhD Studentship - Design and Mission Analysis of Femtosatellites - University of Glasgow

2008-12-12T17:40:57+00:00

PhD Studentship "Design and Mission Analysis of Femtosatellites"
Space Advanced Research Team, Department of Aerospace Engineering

The Space Advanced Research Team at the University of Glasgow is currently seeking a PhD student to investigate the "Design and Mission Analysis of Femtosatellites"

The project consists of the design and development of femto-satellites with a volume of 1 cm x 1 cm x 1 cm and a weight of approximately 10 grams. These very tiny satellites are expected to be mainly made of stacked silicon microchips. Some microchips will be responsible for very specific tasks necessary for the survival of the mission (for example, communication, attitude control, etc.), whereas other microchips will form the scientific payload (for example, embedded microcameras, radiation detectors, etc.) These femto-satellites have the potential to drastically lower the costs of space missions and increase the frequency of the launches. Furthermore, the possibility of having a huge number of femto-satellites (more than 1,000) at a reasonable manufacturing price (less than �200 each) will increase the overall mission reliability (losing some of them will not jeopardize the overall mission objectives). It will also allow the conception of new mission scenarios and the assembly of large structures in space consisting of thousands of small elements (for example, interferometric antenna arrays, synthetic aperture radars, etc.) The doctoral student selected for this project will have to take into account not only the design trade-offs of present microelectronic technology, but also the mission design and analysis trade-offs applicable to space applications. In this process, it is expected that the doctoral student will be able to produce some advances in the state-of-the-art of this interdisciplinary field of research since the present design rules of small satellites cannot be directly applied to the design and development of femto-satellites due to the severe constraints in size and power consumption.

PhD Research Fellow in Mobile Communication Systems, the University of Agder, Norway

Research Fellow in Mobile Communication Systems at the University of Agder, Faculty of Engineering and Science

Ref. 128/08

The University of Agder invites applications for a full-time fixed-term appointment for a period of three years as Research Fellow in Mobile Radio Communications at the Faculty of Engineering and Science. The position is currently located in Grimstad, Norway. The starting date is negotiable.

The Faculty of Engineering and Science offers a PhD programme in Mobile Communication Systems and a Master�s programme in Information and Communication Technology (ICT). The faculty has 30 academic staff within the field of ICT and an extensive network of Norwegian and international partner universities. The faculty, with its regional industrial partners, constitutes one of the largest R&D environments within the field of mobile communications in Norway.

The position belongs to the research project �Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) Communication Systems� funded by the Competence Development Fund of Southern Norway (CDFSN). Within this project, the Research Fellow will work on a sub-project on V2V communications using multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) techniques.

The sub-project covers the following research topics:

Modelling, analysis and simulation of wideband V2V MIMO channels
Development of V2V MIMO channel models under realistic propagation conditions
Development of V2V MIMO communication systems using space-time coding schemes and (Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiplexing) OFDM techniques
Performance analysis of V2V MIMO communication systems under realistic propagation conditions.
