Background
The European Innovative Training Network ‘SILIKA’ on Massive MIMO mm-wave antenna systems for new telecommunication services
offers 12 prestigious PhD student positions in the area of antennas, electronics and signal processing, starting in the autumn of 2016.
SILIKA consists of 8 leading European R&D laboratories from universities, industries, and technology institutes in the domain of wireless infrastructure that are located in The Netherlands, Sweden and Belgium.
SILIKA will provide the PhD students with a comprehensive set of theoretical and practical skills relevant for innovation and long-term employability in a rapidly growing sector. This highly innovative training will cover several inter-disciplinary areas, such as fast computational electromagnetics methods, mm-wave array antenna design and optimization, hybrid analog and digital signal-processing, mm-wave electronics design and integration and packaging of mm-wave antennas with electronics. Each PhD student will be enrolled in a doctoral programme and is jointly supervised by supervisors from the academic and industry sector, where they spend 50% of their time.
SILIKA aims to develop new technologies and design methods that are required to meet the continuously growing need for higher data-rates in wireless communications. The focus will be on innovative antenna system concepts utilizing silicon semiconductor electronics that can generate or receive at millimeter-wave frequencies in order to truly expand wireless communications into the outer limits of radio technology. More information about the 12 individual PhD projects is provided in the appendix.
