PhD in Free-Space Optical and Radio Communications for Tropospheric Future Networks (ANCHOR)

Introduction
Are you passionate about working on next-generation wireless communications? We foresee a future where lasers light up the sky and provide seamless connectivity for space and tropospheric networks, together with radio communications. In this PhD research you will study fundamental limits in free-space optical (FSO) communications, turn ideas into experiments, and help shape future networks with a focus on high-throughput and photon-efficiency. Join the European doctoral network with extensive training programs, welcome at the Information and Communication Theory Lab at TU/e, and enjoy a secondment at the Instituto de Telecomunicações, Aveiro in Portugal.

Job Description
How can we use laser links to connect tropospheric nodes beyond the reach of optical fiber and overcoming the bandwidth limitations of radio? In this PhD, you will study the fundamentals of FSO wireless links for flexible networks on the ground, in the air and in space. The challenge is to combine the capacity of free-space optical communications with the complementary strengths of radio and fiber, creating links that are reliable, use the least amount of photons-per-bit, are adaptive to varying link conditions and approach fundamental limits. Your work will be part of ANCHOR, a European doctoral network exploring optical, THz and radio technologies for future communication networks, including 6G.

Your research will put free-space optical communications at the heart of hybrid FSO–RF–fiber links for terrestrial and airborne networks. You will move between theory, simulation and experiments: develop channel models that capture the essential impairments, explore how modulation, coding and low-level protocols can work together across these links, and design link architectures for experimental evaluation. The goal is to create ultra-high capacity links with high photon efficiency, as needed for tropospheric 6G NTN networks, future data centers in space and as a backup for the high-capacity fiber connections.

You will not be doing this alone. Through ANCHOR, you will join a research community spanning international partners from academia, research institutions and industry, with training that brings together theory and practical skills. You will be enrolled in the PhD program at TU/e, and your project includes a secondment at Instituto de Telecomunicações, Aveiro, Portugal. This is an opportunity to experience another research environment, exchange ideas with international collaborators and build your network beyond Eindhoven.

Throughout this PhD program you will be embedded in the ICT Lab of Signal Processing Systems group of the Department of Electrical Engineering at TU/e. Within the ICT Lab you will work within a dynamic team of approximately twenty researchers under the esteemed leadership of prof. Alex Alvarado and prof. Frans Willems (winner of the Shannon Award 2026). At the ICT Lab, we study information processing in a broad sense. We focus on finding fundamental limits, data processing techniques and architectures that aim at approaching these limits. Main areas of interest are free space optical communications, fiber communications, source coding, channel coding, (multi-user) information theory, security, and machine learning. You will have the opportunity to work with and in the extensive laboratory facilities of the TU/e’s Centre for Wireless Technology (CWTe) and you may use the 4.7 km FSO testbed in Eindhoven for high-throughput experiments. You will work closely with the second ANCHOR PhD at TU/e within the Quantum & Terahertz Systems (QTS) team in the Electro-Optical Communications (ECO) group.

PhD on worker-augmenting technology implementation

Introduction
Are you eager to study how workers can shape the AI and robotic systems they use, so that technology helps them to improve their quality of working life and their performance? We are looking for a PhD candidate to become part of a multidisciplinary research programme on digital technology and work.

Job Description
The project
AI and robotics can help workers handle demanding tasks, yet their actual benefits depend on how technologies are selected, introduced and adapted in everyday work. Workers may have too little say in those choices or face an overwhelming number of decisions without adequate support. The Design work package of the NWA-project AUGMENT therefore asks when, how and to what extent workers themselves should be able to decide how technology supports their work. Its goal is to develop evidence-based guidance for worker-augmenting technology implementation across small and large organizations and among workers with different educational backgrounds. Thus, your work will directly contribute to a future of work wherein technology augments rather than replaces human work.

Your research will connect work and organizational psychology, work design, human-technology interaction and participatory design. You will examine which forms of assistance workers need, which technologies can meet those needs, and which job decision opportunities allow workers to adjust technology while sustaining their job quality, well-being and performance. The precise research questions and studies will be refined with the supervisory team and consortium partners.

Your role in this project
Within this project, you will:

• Conduct fieldwork and collaborate with practical and knowledge workers in small and medium-sized and large organizations, by - among others - performing task and capacity analyses and interviews about their experience of work and desired support.
• Review relevant AI and robotic applications, interview technology integrators, and help assess their potential to support workers using an available human-machine synergy scoring approach.
• Develop and use a transportable laboratory setting at TU/e to study simulated work activities and decisions about AI and robotics
• Design a longitudinal field study of how workers use decision opportunities over time and their implications for labour productivity and meaningful work.
• Analyse qualitative and quantitative data, develop practical guidance for job redesign with partner organizations, and communicate findings to workers, organizations and other stakeholders.
• Publish scientific papers, present at international conferences, and complete a doctoral dissertation.

Your research will be embedded in the Human Performance Management (HPM) group of the School of Industrial Engineering at TU/e. HPM develops scientific knowledge and tests theories that uncover and explain (psychological) processes contributing to performance at the organizational, team, and individual level. By examining the ‘people factor’ in operational and innovation processes, HPM aims to ensure that employees can help in bringing organizational strategies to fruition in the most rewarding and efficient way possible. See: https://www.tue.nl/en/research/research-groups/industrial-engineering/human-performance-management for more information about HPM research.

Prof. Dr Pascale Le Blanc (TU/e) is the assigned promotor; your co-promotors are Dr. Anna-Sophie Ulfert-Blank (daily supervisor, TU/e) and Dr. Milan Wolffgramm (daily supervisor, Saxion). Dr. Paul Preenen (Saxion) will serve as scientific advisor. You will closely collaborate with partner organizations and theoretical and practical workers involved in the NWA-project AUGMENT.

The wider AUGMENT consortium connects research on changing work, worker agency, technology design and implementation. Thus, this PhD position offers ample opportunities to work across disciplines, collaborate actively with organizations and researchers from different institutes, and translate research into meaningful guidance and tools for practice.

Job Requirements

• A (nearly completed) Master’s degree (or an equivalent university degree) in Work and Organizational Psychology, Industrial Engineering, Human-Technology Interaction, Organizational Design, Human Resource Management, Cognitive Science, Sociology, or a related discipline.
• A strong interest in human-centred AI and robotics, work design, worker well-being, and action research in private and public organizations.
• Experience with empirical research and an interest in combining qualitative fieldwork with experiments and quantitative longitudinal analysis; willingness to develop methods you have not yet used.
• The ability to work independently and collaboratively in an interdisciplinary team of researchers and with workers and organizational partners, and to turn complex findings into clear scientific and practical outputs.
• A proactive approach to working with and collecting data at organizations across different sectors (public and private).
• Excellent written and spoken English (C1 level). Dutch language skills (B2 level and up) are useful for fieldwork with organizations and workers.
• Motivated to develop your teaching skills and coach students.

Conditions of Employment
A meaningful job in a dynamic and ambitious university, in an interdisciplinary setting and within an international network. You will work on a beautiful, green campus within walking distance of the central train station.

In addition, we offer you:

• Full-time employment for four years, with an intermediate assessment after nine months. You will spend a minimum of 10% of your four-year employment on teaching tasks, with a maximum of 15% per year of your employment.
• Salary and benefits (such as a pension scheme, paid pregnancy and maternity leave, partially paid parental leave) in accordance with the Collective Labour Agreement for Dutch Universities, scale P (min. € 3,204 - max. € 4,051 gross base salary per month (full-time)).
• In addition to your base salary, you will receive an 8% holiday allowance and an 8.3% year-end bonus, both calculated based on your annual gross base salary.
