The DLR Institute of Communications and Navigation is dedicated to mission-oriented research in selected areas of communications and navigation. Its work ranges from the theoretical foundations to the demonstration of new procedures and systems in a real environment and is embedded in DLR's Space, Aeronautics, Transport, Security and Digitalization programs.

What you can expect:

The Nautical Systems department of the DLR Institute of Communications and Navigation develops and tests new procedures and technologies for shore-based and on-board support in ship navigation, among other things.The Maritime Services working group focuses in particular on alternative terrestrial navigation systems which, as a complement to global satellite navigation systems, enable shipping even under disrupted conditions. In this context, we are developing the R-Mode maritime navigation system and the corresponding reception technology. Our work is guided by the needs of maritime service providers and users.

Your responsibilities:

Estimating the transmission position of GNSS jammers using distributed, time-synchronised GNSS receivers.

• Literature review on existing implementations
• Defining synchronisation requirements
• Selecting and simulating suitable approaches
• Setting up a real-world measurement system and conducting tests
• Evaluating test results

What you bring

• Currently studying aerospace engineering, computer science, mathematics, physics or a comparable degree programme
• Degree in electrical engineering (B.Sc)
• Experience with the use of SDRs
• Experience in digital signal processing
• Ability to work as part of a team
• Good command of German and English

We offer

DLR stands for diversity, appreciation and equality for all people. We promote independent work and the individual development of our employees both personally and professionally. To this end, we offer numerous training and development opportunities.
