Description
In this role, core responsibilities include, but are not limited to the following: • Designing and simulating wireless communication systems for very high data rate applications focusing on MAC layer system design and optimizations. • Analyzing and improving the efficiency of wireless MAC layer protocols, focusing on throughput, latency and overall network performance.• Implementing MAC system models and investigating algorithms for performance enhancements, design and validate them to allow performance sign-off and enable system developments. Defining the control procedures of the MAC layer hardware modules to achieve robust and optimal performance throughput and latency. • Collaborating with PHY system team and cross-functional teams to integrate MAC layer algorithms into system architecture• Collaborating with firmware designers to realize these methods with high efficiency software implementation and possibly with using hardware acceleration. • Bringing up, testing, characterizing and optimizing real silicon in the lab.• Documenting design processes and performance outcomes, providing detailed reports and insights for continuous improvements.
Minimum Qualifications
  • BS and 10+ years of relevant experience.
  • Experience in crafting signal processing and wireless communications systems
  • Strong understanding of WiFi MAC layer protocol and algorithm design (such as EDCA mechanism, OFDMA and MU MIMO MAC layer protocol, multi-user scheduling algorithm etc.)
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience in modem architecture, microprocessor architecture, hardware and software control.
  • Experience of SoC design and validation to support wireless communication system.
  • Working knowledge of WiFi systems and hands-on experience with lab testing and characterization.
  • Knowledge in existing wireless communication protocols, such as 5G/LTE/WCDMA/GSM, 802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ax/be, 802.11ad/ay or Bluetooth/BLE.
