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.- Implementing system models and investigate algorithms for performance enhancements, design and validate them to allow performance sign-off and enable RTL development.- Implementing system models for the wireless communication system and RF/circuits impairments. - Defining the control procedures of the physical layer hardware modules to achieve robust and optimal performance of the Modem in a congested radio environment.- Bringing up, testing, characterizing and optimizing real silicon in the lab.
Key Qualifications
- Experience in crafting signal processing and wireless communications systems.
- Working knowledge of wireless communication systems (e.g., OFDM/MIMO, etc.) and hands-on experience with lab testing and characterization will be necessary.
- Strong understanding of communication theory & signal processing-related algorithm design (such as timing recovery, signal estimation and detection, MIMO signal estimation and detection, automatic gain control, channel estimation, equalization, coding theory, beamforming, etc.)
- Deep understanding of components/modules within wireless communication systems, and the possible impairments from those components, and the corresponding calibration and impairment reduction methods/algorithms, digital pre-distortion, PAPR reduction algorithms, Tx power control, etc.
- Experience with Matlab or Python and/or C/C++ for algorithm development, modeling, and simulation.
- Experience in modem architecture, microprocessor architecture, hardware and software control are a plus.
- Experience on low power algorithm design for power critical application is a plus.
- Experience with multi-radio coexistence management is a plus.
- Experience and knowledge on High Level Synthesis (HLS), silicon prototyping, emulation systems, and virtual platforms will be a plus.
- Experience on bring up of real silicon in lab and being able to efficiently use lab equipment (such as spectrum analyzer, signal generator, power meter, etc.) is helpful.
- 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.
Education & Experience
BS and 3+ years of relevant experience required. MS and PhD preferred.
