Post-doc and PhD/Research Engineer positions in 5G/6G for Industry 4.0



Empleador

OrganizaciónUniversidad Miguel Hernández de Elche
ActividadThe UWICORE laboratory at the Universidad Miguel Hernández de Elche (Spain) offers several post-doc and PhD/Research Engineer positions for research on 5G and 6G networks for Industry 4.0. The research will be conducted within the framework of two Horizon Europe (Re4dy - European “Data as a PRoduct” Value Ecosystems for Resilient Factory 4.0 Product and ProDuction ContinuitY and Sustainability, https://re4dy.eu/- and Zero-SWARM - Zero-enabling smart networked control framework for agile cyber physical production systems of systems, https://zero-swarm.eu/) and one national research project (DiGiT - Cognitive 5G/AI-powered Digital Twins for Automated Mobility and Manufacturing). The objective of the research is to seamlessly integrate 5G/6G networks as part of future digital factories to facilitate a data continuum between the physical and digital domains. To this aim, the work will focus on three main topics: 1) creating 5G/6G digital twins and develop solutions for the joint planning and commissioning of 5G and manufacturing digital twins, 2) integration of 5G/6G networks with industrial networks for seamless data continuum within the manufacturing plan, 3) AI-driven management mechanisms for proactively adapting 5G/6G networks to the service demands and industrial status. Researchers will work together with some of our international and national partners, and while most of the research will be SW-based, some activities will include implementation and testing on testbeds and experimental facilities.
NotasInterested candidates should send their application by email. Candidates should send their Curriculum Vitae and their Academic Certificate and transcript of records to Prof. Javier Gozalvez (j.gozalvez@umh.es), Dr. Miguel Sepulcre (msepulcre@umh.es) and Dra. M.Carmen Lucas (m.lucas@umh.es). The subject of the email should be “Positions in 5G for Industry 4.0 - Candidate name”. Applications will be continuously evaluated upon reception, and online interviews will be organized with the selected candidates until the positions are filled.

FuncionesThe specific research contributions to be conducted are:
  • Mechanisms to integrate and coordinate local industrial networks (including TSN type of networks) and 5G Non-Public Network (NPN) to guarantee end-to-end requirements of industrial services.
  • Develop AI-based management mechanisms to proactively adapt the 5G NPN configuration and operation based on the industrial service demands. This may include the design of network slices, QoS flows and profiles, radio configuration and computing resources.
  • Solutions to proactively manage and adapt local industrial networks with programmable and data-driven control planes to the service demands and the status of local industrial controllers.
  • Implementation of passive and active 5G Asset Administration Shell (AAS) following recommendations and specifications of 5G-ACIA (5G Alliance for Connected Industries and Automation), and design and implementation of 5G digital twins.
  • Integration of 5G digital twins with digital twins of manufacturing plants, and design of solutions for the joint planning and commissioning of smart connected and digitalized manufacturing plants and their embedded 5G networks.
