Postdoc in Optical Communication Systems - DTU Electro

We are looking for a candidate with a strong research background in optical communication systems, with experience in digital signal processing (DSP) and optical transmission technologies. The candidate should have experience with space-division multiplexing (SDM), including wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM), multi-core fibre systems, and microcomb-based optical communication.

The role involves the development, implementation, and experimental analysis of advanced optical communication systems. The researcher will work on WDM, multi-core fibre and microcomb-based systems, including MIMO signal processing for mitigating inter-channel and inter-core cross-talk and optimizing transmission performance.

The candidate should be comfortable operating high-bandwidth experimental equipment, including arbitrary waveform generators, high-speed/high-bandwidth oscilloscopes, optical transmitters and receivers, and other laboratory instrumentation.

They should be able to design and conduct transmission experiments, characterize system performance, optimize system parameters, and analyse experimental results using DSP and data-analysis techniques. The position requires the ability to independently plan and execute experiments, troubleshoot experimental setups, interpret measurement results, and optimize optical transmission systems1 …
