The Barkhausen Institute performs research on the latest hardware, software and communication technologies and demonstrates their application in tomorrow's society. Our goal is to build a flexible and trustworthy IoT platform based on reliable electronics and secure communication methods.
The RF Design Enablement group researches and develops dependable IoT systems with focus on three key research topics such as joint radar-communication system, antenna-system design with meta-surface and physical layer security. We focus our research on designing building blocks, while identifying critical hardware parameters for next-generation hardware systems and applications.
To help pursue our research agenda, we are looking for a
Student Assistant – Electromagnetic Radiation Strength Demonstrator Design (m/f/d)
(up to 19 hours/week for 3-6 months)
The project
The SHK will explore and investigate the scientific methods applicable for RF signal strength detection in sub-10 GHz spectrum. The SHK will design and manufacture the suitable circuits in the lab. The aim is to develop a panel of RF power sensors for spatial mapping of electromagnetic radiation strength for demonstration to non-scientific audience.
Your tasks
- Simulating simple RF circuits using an EM software (AWR, HFSS, etc).
- Designing and running analog circuit simulations with software tools (e.g. Altium designer).
- Multi-layer PCB designing using software tools (e.g. Altium designer, KiCAD, etc.) and assembling of the circuit boards in the lab.
- Measurement of different RF circuits using VNA and spectrum analyzer
We expect the following
- Study of computer science, electrical engineering or comparable.
- Basic knowledge of microwave engineering and analog/digital circuits.
- Knowledge of EM software (HFSS, CST etc) and analog circuit design software (e.g. Altium designer, circuitmaker)
- Prior experience of simple PCB designing.
- Prior experience of using RF lab equipment preferred
- Good communication and writing skills in English
What we provide
- An open and creative team of enthusiastic scientists
- Close to campus
- Agile working hours and workflows
- Work on future technologies
If you have passion for new technologies and the desire to develop the connected world of tomorrow with us, we are looking for you.
