We offer a PhD Position <br>
<br>
<b>Alternative GNSS integrity measures (Salary Scale 13 TV-L) </b><br>
<br>
to join the Research Training Group (RTG) “Integrity and
Collaboration in Dynamic Sensor Networks” funded by the German
Research Foundation (DFG). The position is available from December
1st, 2016 for a duration of three years. <br>
<br>
You will <b>develop new GNSS integrity measures</b> based on
interval mathematics. The theoretical developments will be
implemented in MATLAB to conduct simulation studies. Measurement
campaigns will be performed together with further PhD students of
the RTG to collect data from GNSS and various navigation sensors.
The kinematic positions within the sensor network has to be
determined and integrity measures computed. <br>
<b>We offer</b> an attractive position in an interdisciplinary team
working in a highly relevant topical field of research which
provides excellent opportunities for further professional
qualification. The structured supervision program is designed to
allow for a graduation within three years.<br>
<b>We expec</b>t candidates with an outstanding M.Sc. degree in
geodesy, navigation, aerospace engineering, robotics, or a related
discipline. Good knowledge on GNSS and programming skills in MATLAB.
Furthermore, the ability for interdisciplinary and independent work
as well as a very good command of the English language and a passion
for learning German are required. <br>
Part-time employment can be arranged on request.<br>
