Master Thesis (f/m/x): Optical Transmission of Radio Frequency Signals in SAR Satellite Formations (Oberpfaffenhofen) at Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt
Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt · Oberpfaffenhofen, Germany · Onsite
- Office in Oberpfaffenhofen
With its know-how and expertise in passive and active microwave remote sensing, the Microwaves and Radar Institute contributes to the development and advancement of ground-based, airborne and spaceborne sensors.
What to expect
The Radar Concepts department develops innovative techniques, technologies and information retrieval algorithms for future radar remote sensing systems missions and applications.
Your tasks
- develop a new simulation tool to predict the performance impact of optical links on SAR signals
- set up an analog optical link demonstrator based on fibre optics for analyzing optical links in a SAR context
- perform innovative experiments with the ground demonstrator based on fibre optics for analyzing optical links in a SAR context
- expand the demonstrator with a free-space optics link and perform established tests
Your profile
- good knowledge of English (written and spoken)
- knowledge of optical systems is an advantage
- knowledge of radar and/or RF systems is an advantage
- laboratory experience is an advantage (VNAs, spectrum analysers, signal generators, etc.)
We look forward to getting to know you!
