The Radio Systems Group within the Department of Electrical Engineering has a vacancy for a PhD researcher to work in the EU Horizon Europe Marie Sklodowska-Curie Project PATTERN - European Doctoral Network Enabling Artificial Intelligence for Electromagnetic Compatibility. This research is linked to (DC 14 - Doctoral Candidate) the Development of diagnostic AI tools to change from (post-design) analysis to (pre-design) synthesis for EMC.

The unwanted emission or unwanted susceptibility of complex systems is always caused by aspects which are “forgotten” in the design. This is also the reason why even fantastic extremely difficult simulations fail to model accurately the EMI propagation in products. This DC will first ensure the data validity used for modelling EMI propagation at a system level. S/he will consider “forgotten” parameters from Expert Systems made exceptionally available by the industry, containing field diagnostic and accumulated precious (unpublished) knowledge from senior (EMC) experts.
