The AI Driven Systems research area is looking for a junior researcher to join its team and work on two research projects related to 6G networks.
6G Networks should enable the Internet of Senses as the society evolves towards its full digitalization. Wireless-based Sensing will thus become a key technology to fulfil the Digital Twins vision across industries but the need of deploying dedicated equipment for this purpose and its corresponding intensive processing might jeopardize its implementation in practice.
Furthermore, enabling such a vision requires ubiquitous connectivity, intelligence, awareness and flexibility, also threatening its implementation due to cost and energy efficiency reasons. In this project the system requirements for ISAC systems will be reviewed and defined. Furthermore, 6G Networks enable the possibility to integrate the function of sensing and communication together in one system that will share resources in frequency, time, energy and computing domains. The project will focus on the design of Integrated Sensing and Communications (ISAC) systems which are needed to guarantee that such 6G vision can be met in a cost-efficient manner while significantly contributing to the “Green Deal” objectives.

What do we offer?
Where will you do it?
At i2CAT we already have an established ‘work-from-home’ policy for some time. You can work from home or from the office, whichever suits you best. We expect that you attend the office two days per week: one to stay connected with your team and another one to engage with other colleagues
If you decide to come to the office, we are located in Zona Universitària, next to the Campus Nord of the UPC, within a multidisciplinary and multicultural environment. It is a very well-connected area (metro, tram, bus) with bars and restaurants around.
Our offices are designed with an open-office concept where everything is light and transparency. We have a variety of workspaces so that you don't have to be at the same table all day.
i2CAT is an organization committed to equal opportunities. That is why we seek to increase the number of women in those areas where they are underrepresented, and therefore explicitly encourage female candidates to apply.
I2CAT is an organization committed to creating an environment where we celebrate diversity, and where we provide the dedicated support that our employees need, regardless of their disability.
