The focus of this project, which is funded by the Engineering and Physical Science Research Council (EPSRC) of the UK is on the development, analysis and demonstration of signal processing and networking algorithms for exploring the potential of full-duplex radios in multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) heterogeneous wireless networks (HetNets). In particular the research associate will be expected to perform research and develop algorithms which will include precoding techniques, resource allocations, convex optimization, and machine learning for full-duplex applications in HetNets. The research associate will also be expected to work with other team members to build testbed using software radio peripherals such as NI USRP, PXI systems or WARP. The successful candidate will be expected to work closely with researchers at University College London (UCL).
