Research Intern - Wireless System Architecture Research for 5G Advanced and 6G

Description:

Futurewei is expanding leadership in creating innovative networking technologies for 5G/6G wireless networks. We are seeking summer interns to focus on research into various aspects in end-to-end wireless network system architecture and services for 5G and beyond.

Responsibilities:

• Our intern will focus on research into technologies for services and system architectures in 5G and beyond 5G systems.
• The goal of the program will be to develop novel technologies for 5G+/6G standards.
• Research may cover a wide area including utilization of AI/ML and Optimization techniques in developing solutions for handling congestion and network QoS for new types of media (e.g., XR), Ambient-IoT, Integrated Sensing and Communication, or Energy Efficiency.
• The intern will produce detailed technical reports/papers on specific standards technology tasks and work with the team to publish findings.

Requirements: 
The successful candidate will have:

• Completion of applicable graduate coursework in relevant fields within electrical/computer engineering and/or computer science. Doctoral or master’s students in a research track in Electrical/Computer Engineering and/or Computer science are preferred.
• Candidate’s previous research experience, knowledge, or experience in communication standards (e.g., 3GPP standards), Massive IoT, distributed edge computing/communication, congestion control, routing algorithms, discrete event simulation modeling and related areas are strongly desired.
• Knowledge of 3GPP and/or state-of-the-art approaches for end-to-end security including zero trust network access is strongly desired.
• Proficiency with commercial programming/processing tools, e.g., Python, MATLAB, NS-3, discrete event simulators.
• Excellent communication and teamwork skills.
