Internship: RF Emitter Identification based on I/Q signatures and Meta-Information with AI (d/f/m)

Are you looking for an internship and want to get to know the work of a SW engineer?  Then apply now! We look forward to you supporting us in the Electronic Surveillance department as an intern (d/f/m)! 

Our department develops Radio Signal Intelligence solutions that include Emitter Localization, Spectrum Monitoring, Signal Classification and more. Our tasks range from SW/HW development to algorithm development, AI and systems engineering.

To improve the identification of RF emitters not only the signature (RF characteristic) of RF emitters is relevant but also additional meta information, like signal bandwidth or frequency, should be incorporated. An existing neural network for RF emitter classification which currently solely uses I/Q signals shall be extended to also consider meta information.
