Intorduction:

Radiolocation methods are used in a wide range of applications, from radar systems to cellular communications and navigation. Accurate localization capabilities become even more important in light of the widespread deployment of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and recent advances towards autonomous driving. While ubiquitous node mobility provides new opportunities for target localization and tracking, it also introduces additional challenges to location estimation, as not only the target but also the anchor (sensing) nodes can now be mobile. The aim of this project is to 1) understand how the node mobility affects location estimation performance in time-delay based localization and 2) investigate potential ways to counter-measure its negative effect.

Requirements:

You are a motivated student looking for a Bachelor or Master thesis topic in the field of radio systems. You have strong Matlab programming skills, enjoy analytical/algorithmic studies and have knowledge of signal theory and signal processing basics, e.g., terms such as correlation function, Fourier transform and probability density function are familiar to you.
