Title: Electromagnetic Field and Antenna Array Optimization for Distributed Radar and RF Technologies
Location: Army Research Lab – Adelphi Laboratory Center – Adelphi, MD
Description: DEVCOM ARL is seeking a highly qualified individual for a visiting faculty appointment in the areas of antennas, antenna arrays and active electromagnetic field manipulation, for radar and general RF applications. This position requires a strong theoretical background in complex optimization problems, as well as advanced knowledge of electromagnetic field theory, with emphasis on antenna radiation, as well as beamforming and imaging using antenna arrays. The candidate will collaborate with ARL researchers on problems of current interest to the Army in radar and RF technologies, involving sparse, multi-static arrays implemented as distributed RF systems on unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) platforms. The position will involve algorithm development for fast solution of optimization problems, using the Matlab and/or Python languages. The algorithms will be tested on computer models, with a well-defined path to future practical applications. A Ph.D. in applied mathematics, combined with a current academic appointment is preferable for this position.
Requirements: Optimization use of MATLAB, Python languages
Level: Multiple Classifications
Required Major(s): PhD in applied mathematics combined with current academic appointment
